Tempest said, “Foster Father loves his daughter deeply. Other than considering Baby Zetty’s life and safety, he also took her innocence into account.”Angeline suddenly realized something.At the time, Jaybie had worried about the entire demise of the Ares family. Out of fear that Baby Zetty would end up an orphan, he handed Baby Zetty over to Finn, believing that Finn would never develop any other types of feelings toward Baby Zetty.Tempest smiled in a courteously warm manner and said, “Madam, all men desire beautiful and noble women. Baby Zetty is such a cute and beautiful child. Once she’s all grown up, it would be difficult for us common folk to guarantee that we wouldn’t fall for her.”Angeline’s heart felt a little sore as she said, “Your foster father failed to foresee that the Ares family would manage to stand tall and mighty under his protection. If he had expected that he was certainly able to come home, perhaps he wouldn’t have made such an arrangement.”Tempest was so
The Rolls-Royce proceeded to drive away.Baby Zetty suddenly opened her pair of jewel-like obsidian-colored eyes. She sat up, making a few rustling noises. She put on her shoes before walking outside.“Baby Zetty,” Tempest’s stern yet gentle voice sounded from behind her.Baby Zetty’s back stiffened slightly as she slowly turned around. Then, she squeezed a bitter smile at Tempest.“Come here.” Tempest beckoned to her to come over.Baby Zetty heaved a low sigh and walked toward Tempest, accepting her fate.Tempest extended his broad and gentle hand, holding her hand. He rubbed on it before asking softly, “Are you heading somewhere?”Tears flickered in Baby Zetty’s eyes as she said sorrowfully, “Brother Tempest, I want to go see him… Just a peek will do.”Tempest had an unpleasant expression on his face. Grayson, Storm, and he had discussed this matter, and they had reached a unanimous consensus. If Finn was not able to open his heart to accept Baby Zetty’s feelings, then they h
Baby Zetty broke down in tears. She sorrowfully sat on the sofa and cried in an utterly grief-stricken manner.Tempest pulled out some tissues and handed them to Baby Zetty while saying, “Wipe your tears. I’ll tie your Brother Finn up and bring him over. You can say anything you want directly to his face.”Baby Zetty took the tissues and nodded.Tempest sighed once more and turned around to walk outside.Baby Zetty heard the sound of the door opening and closing.The look in her eyes became more cryptic.Tempest went over and knocked on the front door.Finn was wearing his home slippers when he opened the door, looking drowsy. When he saw Tempest, he said rather sourly, “What are you doing? You come home in the dead of night, making a ruckus. Now, you’re preventing others from getting their sleep.”He glanced at Tammy’s room inside the villa and continued, “My sleep doesn’t matter as much, but Tammy has classes in the morning.”A dark look washed over Tempest’s handsome face
This little lady had turned from that innocent beautiful girl into a dull and unhealthy shell. Her mind had collapsed along with her body.Finn had no clue how to comfort Baby Zetty. He ultimately hugged her tightly and coaxed her aggrievedly, saying, “Brother Finn will help you find a cure, Zetty.”Baby Zetty’s bitter tears were welling up in her eyes. “I can’t be cured. The most I can do is only try to alleviate such a disease.”Her love had been buried by Finn himself with Tammy in the picture. How could her illness ever get better?“You’ll be cured. You have to be strong and learn from your mommy. She had severe depression and somatization disorder but look at her now, still standing strong and tall,” Finn gently comforted Baby Zetty.Tempest was standing at the door, gloomily looking at Finn and Baby Zetty.He wondered whether the decision he made during a moment of softheartedness would bring disastrous results or a blessing to Baby Zetty this time around?Baby Zetty said
Finn answered, “Need you ask?”Tammy smiled extremely bashfully, “Hahaha, I knew it.”It was just that she failed to notice how Finn was incessantly gazing out the door, looking restless.Tempest was about to drive Baby Zetty over to Horizon Colors, but Baby Zetty insisted on another destination. “I wanna go home, Brother Tempest.”Tempest realized that she must want to return to her father and mother’s side. Hence, he turned around and drove toward Tourmaline Estate.When they arrived at Tourmaline Estate, it was already five o’clock in the morning.Baby Zetty sat in the car as if she did not intend to go down.Tempest stared at Baby Zetty in a daze, wondering what she was thinking.Baby Zetty was looking out the car window, unable to take her eyes off the window of Mommy and Daddy’s room at Château de Selene.“Can’t seem to go down?” Tempest asked.Baby Zetty gave him an irrelevant answer, “I’m sorry, Brother Tempest. You didn’t get a good night’s rest today because of me.
“Daddy and Mommy,” Baby Zetty called out as she stood up.Angeline strode over to Baby Zetty and embraced her into her arms. She affectionately said, “You’re finally willing to come home, Baby Zetty.”Jay’s deep gaze instantly stared at Baby Zetty’s face without blinking. The child’s smile looked incredibly forced and stiff, and the dismal in her eyes was so intense that it could not be shaken off easily. Her quick-witted self was now merely a dull shell.Jay recalled Tempest’s warning and felt his heart grow tense.The kid was truly abnormal.Angeline pulled Baby Zetty to sit down and said while smiling, “Stay here for a couple of days, baby. You can keep Daddy and Mommy company.”Baby Zetty nodded at her stiffly.At this moment, the quiet Jay interrupted their conversation, “What are your plans for the future, Baby Zetty?”Baby Zetty’s fingers jerked at the thought. It was as if someone had stepped on her sore spot. It took a while for Baby Zetty to calm her agitated emotions
Baby Zetty looked at Daddy in horror. Could Daddy have seen through her careful little thoughts?She had been desperately trying to conceal her frail and dreadful ideas.It was just that Jay was sharp, so he was able to penetrate Baby Zetty’s mind in a single glance. “Are you perhaps thinking that life no longer has meaning to it?”Baby Zetty convulsed in fear.“You’re scary, Daddy.”Jay pulled Baby Zetty’s trembling hands over and said gently, “Daddy’s not scary. What’s scary is how timid your mind is.”Baby Zetty’s tears started tumbling down as she felt as if she had failed her parents.“I’m so upset, Daddy. I’m afraid that if I continue on being this sad, I’ll become a monster… I can’t even control my weight any longer.”Jay lifted Baby Zetty and placed her on his lap, saying, “You’re still light as a feather, Baby Zetty. There’s still a long, long way from you becoming any sort of monster. As long as you work harder and control your binge eating, I promise you that you’l
Jay said, “Emotions are the most lethal weapon in the world.”Baby Robbie and Jenson immediately understood Daddy’s intention. Then, Jenson said, “Don’t worry, Daddy. We’ll take good care of Zetty, and we’ll never let anything happen to her.”Jay nodded at them.Once Jay left, Jenson and Baby Robbie looked at each other. The two realized that since Baby Zetty was not by their sides at the moment, if any accidents were to occur...The two’s expressions immediately changed when they thought of this, and they went out almost as fast as a whirlwind.At the school’s rooftop.Baby Zetty was currently sitting by the edge of the roof.Many students had gathered on the ground while looking at Baby Zetty in a panic. They clamored, yelling, “Look, someone’s about to jump off the building!”The teachers and principal started yelling at her from below, “Will you please come down, Rozette Ares? What if you accidentally fall from that height?”The other daughters from the Ares family had alr
