Angeline sighed. “To be honest with you, I hate her more than you do. From the first time she hurt me, the hatred I had for her had been buried deep within me. Every time she hurt me, the seed of hatred that I had planted in me was watered and fertilized, making my hatred grow stronger and stronger.“Ultimately, all the hatred in me grew into a gigantic tree, seeping into every fiber and flesh of my being. To unearth such hatred is the same as crushing my body into pieces. How agonizing would that be?”Jay looked at Angeline in astonishment. He was surprised to learn that the pain Chloe caused Angeline had been etched into her bones and heart to such a terrifying extent.Jenson and Baby Robbie were even more puzzled now.“Mommy, if you hate her so much, why did you forgive her?” Jenson asked.Angeline laughed bitterly. “Forgive her? I would probably never forgive her. The pain she has caused me is impossible to forget. My heart would hurt every time I cast my mind back to the time
When the rest of the sisters could not find Baby Zetty, they finally learned that Baby Zetty had left Imperial Capital. They felt sad to the point where some even started crying because they did not want Baby Zetty to leave.Baby Zetty had taken great care of these sisters when she was in Imperial Capital.When the sisters first left the military intelligence division back then, they had been filled with curiosity about this new world of liberty. Unfortunately, they knew nothing about how the world worked.Baby Zetty was the one who patiently taught them how to shop, how to eat, how to style their clothes, how to apply makeup, and how to interact with people…Her friendliness had a lasting impact on them and helped them feel familial affection.Now, this kind-hearted Baby Zetty had left Imperial Capital to mend her broken heart. The sisters thought that it was such a pity they did not manage to say goodbye to her.In order to liven up the atmosphere, Baby Robbie deliberately made
Grayson walked toward the wall and pressed a button that was disguised as a brick. The wall suddenly moved and a secret drawer popped out. He picked up a pile of documents and returned. Jenson was in disbelief as he uttered, "These... Are these the files on my grandpa's affairs and relationships?" Grayson put the files on the table, placed his hand on the mountain of documents, and said, "This is only the information of the affairs that your Grandpa Jacob had. His siblings’ records are equally impressive." Jenson's expression turned ugly as he murmured angrily, "He’s moribund but it doesn’t stop him from being a philanderer. He’s clearly not afraid of dying from exhaustion." Then, he pulled out the file on Madam Nephele from the stack and scanned through the document. Before long, Jenson threw Nephele Davis' file on the table. His eyes widened as he said, "Madam Nephele is quite mysterious. Not only does she know how to use poison, but she has even managed to wiggle hers
Jenson was puzzled, thinking how Madam Nephele had managed to discover him. Suddenly, he felt something cold under his feet licking his ankle! Jenson lowered his gaze and saw a black python staring at him with its dark eyes. Jens was shocked! With the help of his equipment, he flew out of the courtyard. Jenson patted his chest and looked back at the tree in shock, only to find that the python was gone. Jenson returned to the rented house next to Imperial Domain Experimental Middle School. That night, Jenson had a restless night. The next day. Jenson was woken up by Baby Robbie. "Jens, when did you come back?" Jenson got up lazily. He was still in a blur as he recalled what had happened at Madam Nephele’s place last night. He was confused once more.Baby Robbie studied Jenson's expression and said, "Were there any obstacles in your investigation?" Jenson told Baby Robbie about his adventures last night. "I went to investigate Madam Nephele last night. It w
Baby Zetty was not sure how many transits she had gone through. When the plane landed, Baby Zetty was dumbfounded when saw the deserted countryside in front of her. "Great-grandma, is this Cloud City?" She heard Mommy mention Cloud City before, which she described to be a beautiful town where the flowers were in bloom all year round. It was far from the impoverished countryside in front of her. Boye and Grandpa looked at each other. Then, Boye smiled and said, "Baby Zetty, this isn’t Cloud City. Cloud City is just a smokescreen that your daddy set up. The place we’re at is Dragon Island." Baby Zetty replied, "Oh." She then kept quiet the rest of the way. She planned to relax. It did not matter to her whether she went to a prosperous city or a remote countryside.However, when Boye took her home, Baby Zetty became a little nervous when she saw the experimental equipment of various shapes and materials along with the colorful test tubes. "Great-grandma, am I going to stud
Tears were pouring from her eyes as though there was a storm. After a long time, Baby Zetty finally settled down and she said, "Okay, I’ll learn. I’ll learn from you." Boye nodded in relief. "There’s no hurry, you’ve just arrived. Take a few days’ rest. I’ll bring you around so that you can familiarize yourself with the environment. Next time, you might be going to the mountains to collect herbs." "Oh." Baby Zetty was first introduced to the castle-like house. There were three floors above ground and two floors in the basement. The first floor was the living area. The kitchen, bathroom, and bedrooms were all on the first floor. Except for some beakers, there was no sign of anything medical-related. Not until they reached the second floor which was an exhibition. Each hall was divided into categories, and they included everything and anything related to medicine. Baby Zetty saw the densely packed bookshelves and suddenly felt like she had made a rash decision. "H
Imperial Capital. Late at night. Jenson and Baby Robbie secretly left the rented house and sneaked back to Mammoth Courtyard. When they were close to Madam Nephele's backyard, Jenson suddenly grabbed Baby Robbie's hand and solemnly said, "Baby Robbie, there’s something off about Madam Nephele. You have to be careful." Baby Robbie smiled and placed his hand on Jenson's shoulder. "Jens, how can we catch the tiger cub without entering the tiger's lair? I’ll break in to distract her, and you’ll sneak into her room to find out more about her." Jenson stretched out a finger and shook it in front of Baby Robbie's eyes. Baby Robbie wondered out loud and said, "Why? What’s wrong with my idea?" Jenson replied, "It’s a good idea, but our roles should be reversed. I'll deal with Madam Nephele while you inspect her room. If we’re in danger, you should run." Baby Robbie rolled his eyes at Jenson. "Do you think of me as a coward? You’re my brother, how can I abandon you?" J
Jens said, “Judy was the Ares family’s prisoner. Faith must have done something to disturb Chloe’s mental state and persuaded her into letting Judy go. Faith is related to Judy’s death one way or another.”Madam Nephele answered in a low voice, “Even if Faith killed Judy, why did you come looking for me, Young Master Jens?”Jenson’s profound and unfathomable pupils fell onto Madam Nephele as he said, “Madam Nephele, I heard that you were the one who recommended the underaged Faith to become the Ares family’s maid.”An obvious look of startlement flashed across Madam Nephele’s eyes, but she managed to recover her calmness rather quickly. She smiled lightly and replied, “Yes, I did. I pitied the child for having no father and mother, so I pleaded with Second Old Master to take Faith in.”Jenson spoke rather slowly, yet his tone carried a strong and formidable power, “You’re wrong, Madam Nephele. As long as one is human, then they’d have both a mom and a dad. Faith is no exception.”
