The more Angeline thought about it, the more frightened she was.Jay said to her, “It seems like if we want Baby Zetty to forget about Finn completely, we’ll have to give her some strong medications.”Angeline widened her eyes and asked, “What are you planning to do to her?”Jay said, “Let’s send her over to Grandma Boye. Grandma Boye will know what to do with her.”Angeline replied, “That’s right! Why didn’t I think of her? She has excellent medical skills and has done research on both organic diseases and mental illnesses. Perhaps Grandma Boye can find a cure for Baby Zetty’s lovesickness?”Jay looked at Angeline who seemingly wanted to rush their daughter to the doctor for a cure. He wanted to tell her that lovesickness was not a disease and Grandma Boye would perhaps not have any medications for it.However, seeing Angeline’s mood getting more cheerful, Jay felt that there was no need for him to tell her the truth at the moment. Nonetheless, Jay revealed two other matters t
Grand Old Master Yorks became suspicious and asked, "What do you mean?"Jay tried to stay calm and replied, "It's just that the Ares family’s illegitimate children are quite opinionated about all of you staying in Tourmaline Estate. After all, you're not blood-related with the Ares family, and your staying in Tourmaline has stirred up quite the jealousy among the illegitimate children who aren't eligible to live here."Grand Old Master Yorks said, "We're in-laws with the Areses, so why can't we stay in Tourmaline Estate?"Angeline comforted him, saying, "After the hard time has passed, we'll come to pick you up again. Why not just follow Jay's advice for now, Grandpa?"Grand Old Master Yorks looked at Angeline with a smile. Angeline was always kind and straight with her words, unlike Jay who was never straight to the point. He had even wholly missed the intention of his question."Angeline, tell me why your Jaybie is trying to chase us out all of a sudden?"Jay was afraid that An
Cole glared at Jay angrily and scoffed, “Then why didn’t you live with the Severe family instead?”Jay took Angeline’s hand and patted the back of it while saying tenderly, “Because managing Ares Group is more profitable, and I need to make a lot of money to support my dear Angeline.”Angeline blushed bashfully and said, “I can’t even spend all of that money on my own.”Jay replied, “But I want to give you the best things in life.”Cole was utterly speechless watching this scene and snarled. “Go, go, go. You’re just here trying to show your loving affection in public. We don’t welcome you here, so hurry up and leave.”Chloe and Grand Old Master Yorks were both glaring at Cole in immense dissatisfaction. “We welcome them here!” The two scoffed in unison.Then, Cole reminded them, “Do you remember that he’s here to chase us out?”Grand Old Master Yorks pondered and asked, “JJ, are you trying to make us leave the Ares household at this time because you’re afraid that we’ll be dragg
Jay concluded, saying, “All of you need to leave. As for Judy and Sandra, it’s time for them to pay for their crimes.” When he said this, his eyes were filled with destructive hostility. Spencer, “...”He let out a sorrowful sigh.After Jay and Angeline left, Grand Old Master Yorks and the others were left dispirited. They sat still on the spot with their heads drooped down, utterly silent. All of them were clearly reluctant to leave Tourmaline Estate.Grand Old Master Yorks sighed and said, “Well, JJ is right. Although we’re in-laws with the Areses, we’re still not considered as Areses, after all. It doesn’t make sense for us to live in Tourmaline Estate for such a long time. Go, pack your things and prepare to leave at once.”Since Jordan was still an Ares and Fragrant Vesset Court was his property, there was no need for him to leave. Likewise, Chloe was not required to go as well since she was still his wife.However, Chloe was reluctant to part with her aging father, so she
“What’s your type, then?”“Why are you asking an obvious question?” Cole raged.Jay thought about it and said, “When Angeline is gentle, she wraps herself around me like a trumpet vine; when she’s tough, she protects me from the storm like a giant tree. At other times, she can be obedient, rebellious, and ruthless.“Sis Shirley may seem soft, but she knows how to fight for injustices. Her strong and soft character resembles Angeline.”Cole gnashed his teeth in anger. “You’re just making a forceful analogy.”When Jay noticed how stubborn Cole was, his smile froze on his face. “What about Dawn? Are you not going to think about your son’s feelings?”Cole frowned in agony. “I’ve already tried my best to bond with Shirley for Dawn’s sake, but no matter how many times we meet up with each other, I still don’t have any strong feelings for her nor can I feel my heart racing.”Jay asked him, “Does it hurt you to be with her?”“Well, no.”Jay said, “Not every relationship needs to be fi
Jay had lost all sense of reason when it came to loving Angeline.Anyone could bully, trample on, and humiliate Imperial Capital’s young master and he would simply strike back nonchalantly.However, if someone hurt or upset Angeline, then Sir Ares would go berserk.Cole was envious of Sir Ares’ love for Angeline.“Jinxing her marriage and life? Why do I feel like you’re that person?” Cole was always capable of turning his envy into an offensive attack to strike back at Sir Ares.Jay’s Rolls-Royce nearly crashed into a wall ahead. Jay slammed on the brakes, bringing the Rolls-Royce to an emergency stop one inch away from the wall.Cole was so frightened that all color drained from his face.“Don’t you know how to drive?”Jay glared furiously at him, saying, “You should blame yourself for saying all that crap.”Cole shrugged and laughed. “I’m speaking the truth. Angeline missed out on the golden opportunity to be with me because she chose you. If her marriage isn’t jinxed, then
When Angeline opened her eyes and saw Jay, she immediately let out a bright and beautiful smile.“I was waiting for you.”Jay was caught between laughter and tears. “You’re freezing out in the cold breeze. Hurry up and go inside. Don’t catch a cold.”Angeline stood up and walked inside the house holding Jay’s arm, asking with concern, “Grandpa and the rest are gone?”“Mm.”Angeline glanced anxiously at Jay. “Are they mad at you?”Jay turned to look at Angeline, asking, “Would you be mad if I did this to you?”Angeline grinned from ear to ear and held Jay’s arms tightly. “I don’t believe your nonsense. I won’t leave you. I’ll just pester you again and again. I’ll glue myself to you like a piece of chewing gum.”Jay’s face broke into a smile. “I love it when you do this.”Angeline then recalled something which wiped the smile off her face. “Are you really sending Grandma Boye away?”Jay nodded.Angeline sniffed and looked as though she was about to cry. She said, “I don’t want
“Angeline, I was there when she died.” Jay did not plan to keep this from Angeline because even if he did not say it, Cole, that flatterer, would.“Was the driver one of your men?” Angeline asked.Jay shook his head. “No. I don’t know the offender.”Angeline stared at Jay with a confused gaze, silently ruling out the possibility of Jay being the direct cause of Judy’s death.“How did she die, then?”Jay replied, “She was killed by her unrepenting ways and greed.”Angeline grew even more confused.Jay continued to explain, “I had an argument with Cole in the car so I pulled over right in front of a wall and got out of the car in a fit of pique. Coincidentally, I saw Judy standing at the road ahead, about to cross. When she saw me, she looked like she was put under a spell and forgot to cross the road. Even when the traffic light turned green, she continued to stand there like a wooden puppet. The drivers were impatient, so they began driving, shuttling back and forth as she stood
“Madam Angeline, do you have any last words?” The man showed Angeline mercy and gave her the chance to breathe in some air. Angeline pondered upon it for a while and said, “In the past, I only wished for my family’s peace and my children’s health. Right now, I hope that my children will be able to achieve all of their dreams. I hope that Jens will be able to revitalize our family’s business. I hope that Baby Zetty’s wish for there to be no more pain and suffering in the world comes true. I hope that Baby Robbie’s wish for there to be no more separations in families comes true as well.” The man was stunned. The gun in his hands tilted slightly. “Madam Angeline, wealthy people like you live luxurious lives that are free of worries. How would you ever understand the suffering of ordinary people like us? You didn’t mean anything you said to me just now, right?” Angeline said, “I’m about to die. Why would I lie to you? Although I’m from a wealthy family, I’m also a mother. I love
Angeline said, “Although Jens is young, Whitty isn’t at a ripe age anymore. Whitty has waited for Jens for so many years. She should get something in return.” Sir Ares remained silent. However, there was still an unpleasant expression on his face.Upon catching sight of the expression on Sir Ares’ face, Whitty immediately said, “Daddy, Mommy, Jens and I aren’t in a rush to get married. Jens has decided to get married after having a stable career.”Sir Ares seemed to calm down. Jenson stood up and told Sir Ares, “Daddy, I’d like to marry Whitty.” Sir Ares cast a sideway glance at him and asked, “What’s the reason behind your decision to do so?” Jenson said, “I love her.” Sir Ares’ lips upturned slightly. Not only did Jens’ personality resemble that of his, but his outlook on love was similar to his as well.Upon recalling how persistent he was while pursuing Angeline when he was young, Sir Ares knew that he could not stop Jenson.The relationship between father and son w
Sir Ares stared at Angeline speechlessly. At this moment, their memorable love flashed across his mind. He had once loved someone so deeply. He could go against his parents for her as well. Sir Ares sighed and said, “You really can’t keep your children by your side once they’re all grown up.” Angeline stared at the dispirited man before her. Her heart hurt for him. She reached out to hold his hand. Sir Ares smiled at her as she warmed up his hands. He said in an understanding tone, “Angeline, you’re still the best.” Angeline smiled and said, “Of course, I’m the best. That’s because I’m the only person who will stay by your side till the very end. Gale is such an existence for Angel, and Finn is such an existence for Baby Zetty as well.” Sir Ares said, “Alright, stop teasing me. I got it.” Yes, love was above anything else in the world. That was the tradition of the Ares family. Sir Ares was madly in love with Angeline. However, when it came to others, he felt that
However, when Angeline found out about Grayson and Andy’s marriage, she insisted on holding a grand wedding for them.Angeline and Sir Ares called Andy before them. Angeline spoke up in a touched voice, “Andy, I’ve always treated you like my biological daughter. Now that you’re getting married, I’ll marry you off just like you’re my daughter.” Angeline handed a set of jewelry, a bank card, and a key to Andy. She said, “Andy, although Baby Zetty is married, we didn’t hold a grand wedding for her. I don’t know how other families marry off their daughters. Since you’re a girl, you’ll feel secure after having your own property. You’ll have your own freedom after having your own car. You’ll take the effort to dress up after having your own jewelry.” Andy cried tearfully, “Thank you, Mommy.”Angeline hugged Andy and patted her back as she said, “Don’t cry. You must come back often to visit in the future.” “Alright.” After Angeline finished speaking, Sir Ares stared and Grayson an
Whitney handed the envelope over to Andy and said, “Miss Laurel asked me to hand this to you.” Andy slowly opened the envelope under the sisters’ curious gazes. A red spider lily specimen fell out of the envelope.Tears filled Andy’s eyes when she saw it.The sisters all burst into tears. Whitney said, “I don’t know what meaning it holds for you, but I guess Laurel wants to convey something to all of you since she wanted me to hand it to you. Have you understood what she wants to tell you?”Andy cried out loud, “This is the blood oath that we made at the military intelligence division. When we swore to be sisters, Sis Daisy mentioned that although our fates were predetermined in this lifetime and we don’t get to decide how long we’ll be able to live, we can wait for the sisters in the afterlife after death. We must wait for everyone to gather before reincarnation. We can then be reincarnated as sisters in our next life.” Whitney was touched by this beautiful oath. She teared
Jenson then ordered the servants to search every nook and cranny of Tourmaline Estate and Imperial Capital. Baby Robbie seemed to have vanished into thin air. There was no sign of him anywhere.Sir Ares sighed after hearing the news. Angeline gave up after the long search. She told Jenson, “Don’t look for him. He’s all grown up now. We can’t restrain him anymore. Don’t waste more human and physical resources searching for him. Manage Tourmaline Estate well. You and Whitty will have to take responsibility for this household in the future.” Jenson stared into his mommy’s calm eyes. Although he was curious as to why his mommy, who loved her son more than her own life, could react so calmly to his disappearance, he kept that question in his heart. “Yes, mommy.” After leaving Chateau de Selene, Jenson returned to his room in an upset mood. Whitty walked into his room with a cup of hot tea and placed it in his hands gently. “Jens, you’ve been busy every day lately. You must look af
Baby Robbie nodded sternly. After Angeline’s health recovered a little, Baby Robbie paid her a visit at once. His face no longer gave out a childish air. His handsome face exuded a sharpness that resembled that of his father’s.Angeline knew that Baby Robbie would be filled with guilt for the rest of his life after this incident. She also knew that he would change his habit of fooling around and not thinking before acting. “Mommy, it’s all my fault. If I didn’t blindly believe in her, she wouldn’t have the opportunity to damage Tourmaline Estate,” Baby Robbie said. He was filled with self-guilt. Angeline said, “Baby Robbie, I know what you’re thinking. I’m having the same thoughts right now.” ”Baby Robbie was stunned. He glanced evaluatively at the weak and exhausted expression on his mommy’s face. Somehow, Baby Robbie felt upset on behalf of his mommy. It turned out that he was not the only one who did not have a good eye for people. His mommy was in the same boat as we
Jenson decided to rebuild Tourmaline Estate with the underlying theme of ‘remembrance’. Baby Robbie fell silent after looking through the design plans.“Jens, do you think that I’ve committed a huge sin?” He suddenly voiced out his thoughts. Jenson shook his head and said, “Baby Robbie, you didn’t want any of this to happen. However, you should’ve learned your lesson by now. You can’t be kind to everyone at all times.” Baby Robbie nodded and said, “I didn’t understand the meaning behind these words in the past. I get it now.” Jenson was stunned. After Baby Robbie left Jenson’s place, he paid a visit to Angel’s courtyard. Angel was now around seven years old. She was extremely tall and mentally mature. Therefore, she did not seem like a child at all. “Brother, I heard that you haven’t been in a good mood lately. I wanted to look for you since some time ago. However, look at the state that I’m in. How can I go out?” She waved her sleeves slightly. The furniture within the
Sir Ares stared at Sis Thirteen coldly. His gaze was devoid of the fatherly love that he had always shown her.“I knew that you had a hidden motive when you moved into the Ares family back then. However, I didn’t expect you to be so evil and have such a cruel heart at such a young age. Angeline’s love and adoration toward you didn’t warm your heart at all. To me, you’re not just a traitor. You don’t have a heart at all.” Sis Thirteen stared at Sir Ares in shock. Sir Ares’ scoldings seemed to help her better perceive herself. “You hurt my father. You hurt my daddy. That’s why I steeled my heart and decided to take revenge on the Ares family,” she cried out loud. Sir Ares said in a harsh tone, “Karma exists in the world. Why would I hurt him if he didn’t abduct my children? You don’t have the ability to discern right and wrong. You’re just making excuses for yourself. Do you think you’re being reasonable right now?” Sis Thirteen shook her head in devastation. “I only know that
