Josephine’s gaze was fixed on Rose and Jay’s matching outfit. She quickly exclaimed, “You guys are wearing a couple's costumes. Are you Jay’s dancing partner today?”Rose was about to explain, but Jay extended his large pincers-like hands and grasped her wrist. He spun her to the side and strictly warned in a whisper, “The Bell and Ares are trying their best to make Josephine and Sean’s marriage happen. It’d be better if you don’t mention anything about being Sean’s dancing partner, Rose Loyle.”Rose had an embarrassing realization. If Josephine and Sean were a pair, it would be inappropriate to be Sean’s dance partner.When Jay noticed Rose’s awkward comprehension, the corners of his sexy and charming lips made a melodious arc.Josephine was still waiting for Rose’s reply, so Rose plucked up her courage to link arms with Jay. Then, she returned to Josephine’s with a smile. “Yeah.”Josephine immediately showed a beaming smile. “Big Bro, Sister-in-law, you guys look so good togethe
He initially had planned to change his outfit but could not get his hands on the key to the fitting room. Hence, he could only return without success.Josephine said somewhat enthusiastically, “I’m sorry, Sean. It seems like your dancing partner was taken away by my brother. To express my apologies, I can be your temporary dancing partner… If you don’t mind.”Sean gave it a thought and nodded. “Alright.”When Josephine and Sean walked toward the venue, they immediately collided with Jay and Rose. Jay took his undeserved gain for granted when he said, “Sean Bell, red really does suit you.”Sean had no choice but to suffer in silence. There was a bitter taste in his mouth.“Rose, don’t forget your agreement to dance with me.” Sean looked at Rose with a smile, his tone gentle.Jay watched as the two openly ‘flirted’ right in front of him, and there was a glimpse of an evil sneer in his eyes. ‘Don’t dream about it!’Sean picked up the red wine in his hand and raised a glass to Ros
Jay was allergic to alcohol, hence his lips barely touched any.However, he deliberately went and greeted everyone and did not refuse anyone who toasted to him. Rose had no choice but to step forward for Jay and drink his share for him.Consequently, Rose ended up losing track of how many glasses of wine she had drunk. Her stomach was overwhelmed by the amount of liquid, and she started feeling sick. Finally, she conceded and asked Jay for help.“I can’t drink anymore, Sir Ares.” She clutched onto her stomach with a pale face. Sweat was oozing out of her forehead.Jay looked at her increasingly sick expression, and his eyes were cold. The tone he used was even colder. “You’re oh-so capable, aren’t you? You even drank 12 glasses of liquor!”It was a powerless mocking for the resentment he felt.‘Why’d you have to drink this much when you can’t actually withstand it?’Fortunately, she was with him today. If it were any other hypocrite with a lustful scheme, how could she protect h
‘Why’d I help bully Rose in the past?’Inside the villa, the three little buns had each climbed up their beds to sleep.Jay hugged Rose straight into his room. The moment he placed her on the bed, Rose suddenly opened her wistful eyes. Jay pulled a stool over and sat in front of her. He warned her in a serious tone, “Remember this, Rose. Your limit is at most six glasses, and you were drinking red wine that was below room temperature.”He thought that she was awake and sober, but after looking at him in a daze for a long time, she reached out her hand and stroked his face.“Jaybie!” she called out softly.Jay was so petrified that he froze like a statue.Only his Angeline would call him that.Even Josephine dared not call him that.“Are you Angeline?” He suppressed his excitement while waiting for her to answer him.They did say that alcohol was truth serum. Would she tell him now?She burst into tears and cried as she pushed him away. “Why do you have to bully me? And afte
“Rose Loyle!”Rose was about to reach for the door when she heard Jay’s languid voice that drew her back in. “You slept with me, and now you want to run?”Rose turned around and shrank her neck like an ostrich. Her voice was slightly trembling. “It wasn’t on purpose, Sir Ares!”Jay opened the bedding, and his legs loomed under the bathrobe. He walked to Rose’s side and pushed the door panel with one hand.The door was then automatically locked. Rose felt like she was a bird in a cage. Then, she thought about how he retaliated after sleeping with him for the first time. She was afraid it would be impossible to escape this time around.“I’m sorry, Sir Ares. I went over my limits last night.” Rose was choking back tears at this point.“Rose Loyle.” Jay lifted her chin. He forced her to stare into his stern, solemn eyes.“From now on, you’re not allowed to drink.” He gritted his teeth.“Why not?” In fact, Rose wanted to ask him, ‘Why does it matter to you whether I drank or not?’
Jay Ares was surprised. “Why aren’t you watching children’s programs?”Baby Robbie was so hungry that he answered weakly, “Can’t you tell, Daddy? I’m trying to sate my hunger by looking at food.”Jay was taken aback.“If you’re hungry, why didn’t you wake Daddy up to cook for you?” he asked.Jenson replied coolly, “Daddy and Mommy are committed to the prosperity of the family and are working hard to create humans. We should support Mommy and Daddy.”Baby Zetty turned to look at Jay and asked, “Are we about to have baby brothers and sisters soon?”Jay Ares: “…”“Who said we’re making humans?” Jay asked in amusement.Jenson and Baby Zetty both pointed at Baby Robbie.Baby Robbie explained innocently. "Mommy said that after you slept with her, the stork brought us to you. Last night, Daddy and Mommy slept together, so the stork will be bringing children to you again."After pausing for a moment, Baby Robbie’s expression lit up with a look of anticipation. “I want three more brot
Eminent Honor Co. Ltd.President Zayne Severe was summoning his entrepreneurial partners and the company's key employees for an emergency meeting.“During this period, there have been persistent attacks by hackers on our network system. But I don’t understand. Eminent Honor has only been listed recently, and we’re not a powerful company. So who would have their sights set on us?” Zayne’s best friend, Francis Greene, asked.Zayne did not hold back with his reply. “Eminent Honor might be nothing big, but it’s supported by the Severe family’s wealth. Back in his younger days, my old man did many evil deeds and annexed too many small and medium-sized enterprises. He has made too many enemies, and many people have put a target on the Severe family’s back.“The most urgent task at the moment is to restore network order immediately. Eminent Honor’s foundation has never been stable. If it operates abnormally for a long time, it'll affect the customer's experience."However, we have mobili
At that moment, Rose Loyle was puzzled. Why did her brother, Zayne Severe, not guard the Severe family's massive industry but chose to run to Imperial Capital to start a company from scratch?Unlike other aristocratic families, Zayne and her were the only two legitimate descendants of the Severe family. Even though her father had a mistress on the side and they had an illegitimate child, her grandfather never allowed them into the Severe family.In her grandfather’s eyes, he only had two grandchildren, which were her and Zayne."President Severe!" Rose hid her conflicted emotions and greeted Zayne with a slight smile.Zayne smiled dryly. “Rose, you came just in time. The company has been attacked by anonymous hackers. The hackers are tampering with our data. It's now time for you to show off.”A hacker blatantly tampered with the data of the target company, which was very provocative.However, if such a mad hacker encountered someone more skilled than him, he would be defeated ve
