Chapter 230

Author: Yan An
The employee at the hardware section recommended him various types of locks. "Just give us the most expensive one," Rose said with a smile.

The employee handed her the most expensive fingerprint lock, and Rose put it in her shopping cart.

As they left the hardware section, Jay told her, "I used to have this habit of always buying the most expensive thing, but a silly girl told me that the most expensive thing isn't always the best. I've since changed my habit because she never stops bickering about it. Now, I always survey for the most suitable item instead of the most expensive one."

"…" Rose was taken aback.

"Should I change another one?" She felt extremely awkward.

"That's too much trouble," he said nonchalantly.

Rose pouted. "That silly girl is right. You might be rich, but you shouldn't be tricked into spending more than you need to. She's not the silly one; you are."

She smiled like a blooming flower for successfully speaking up for herself.

Jay felt warmth in his

    Back at the house, after Jay placed the four grocery bags away, he took out the fingerprint lock, found a toolbox, and deftly dismantled the brass lock on the door. Rose was shocked beyond belief and quickly stopped him. "This is Sean's house, Sir Ares. Can you not wreck it without his permission?" Jay's hands did not stop moving. "Brass locks aren't as secure as fingerprint locks," he said candidly. "Why aren't brass locks secure?" Rose was baffled. Jay stared at her and spat out a few words. "It's not the lock, it's the landlord." Rose laughed. She thought that he was worried about the safety of the children. "Well then, have you ever seen a human trafficker as gentlemanly and rich as Mr. Bell?" Jay threw the tool in his hand on the floor and glared at her unhappily. "Then, have you seen a human trafficker as handsome and rich as me?" 'Um… 'Does he still remember that I asked the kids to call him a human trafficker?' Jay glared at Rose's embarrassed face and said,

    It would have been a squeeze if Jay and Jens stayed for the night. Jay was more than six feet tall. He would not agree to sleep on a child-sized bed. "No," Rose rejected him determinedly, "There's no place for you to sleep here." Jens stood up and said to Mommy coyly," Mommy, Daddy and I can fit on a bed." Rose did not quite believe it and looked at Jay. Jay nodded. Rose remained worried, as though she had kept a ticking time bomb beside her. That night, Robbie sneaked into Jens's room and happily played with their toys together. They played until they were overcome with fatigue, and they collapsed on the bed. Meanwhile, Zetty slept in Robbie's room. Everything was quiet in the dark night. Rose was lying on her bed when she suddenly heard her door creak open. She thought that one of the children might have sneaked in, but in the next moment, she saw Jay lift her blanket and lie down next to her. "Sir Ares?" Rose bounced up from her sleeping position. "The bed is t

    Eventually, Rose could not keep her eyes open and fell asleep. Jay heard her steady breathing and opened his eyes. He turned his body to his side and looked at her sleeping face. Her appearance was starkly different, but the resemblance to Angeline was undeniable. He had never looked at her straight in the face, perhaps because her appearance was not the same, much less tried to understand her since seven years ago, when she had given up her all to marry him. They could have spent their time happily together, but he had squandered it all. He had hurt her deeply, and she had learned how to hide her scars. Jay lifted her hand and gently touched Rose's cheek. The woman he hurt the most was the woman he loved the most. He hugged her close to his body, allowing his solitude over the years to be washed away by the bliss of her presence. With her and the children, what more could he ask for? If he had a regret, that would be the daughter that she bore while married to anot

    "So if I bully you, you can accept it if I just say sorry?" Jay asked with a low voice. Jay was pleased that the silly woman was so gullible. "… You're the one who came into my room last night, Sir Ares," she was incredibly frustrated. "Are you saying that I came to your room to be bullied?" A hint of a smile appeared on Jay's melancholic face. "I didn't mean that, Sir Ares," She did not know how to explain herself. He got up and sat on the bed. He furrowed his brows unhappily when he saw that he was still wearing his white shirt. Rose could feel a horrible aura emanating from the man. He was manifesting his morning tantrum. "What's wrong, Sir Ares?" Rose asked uneasily. "You ought to replace everything on this bed before tonight," he spoke haltingly. Rose's eyes fell on the white bedding. The bedding was soft, comfortable, and made of pure cotton. It was also a plain color that he liked. Why was he dissatisfied with it? "Why should I have to change it?" She felt it

    "Are you serious?" Rose stared at Jay. 'Does this guy think that Grand Asia can do anything they want in the Imperial Capital?' Jay nodded seriously. Rose was helpless. "Sir Ares, this is Sean's house. I am only a tenant, and you are only my son's daddy and a mere visitor. What right do you have to dictate any changes to this house?" Jay glared at Rose resentfully. Since when had she become so detached? Rose realized to whom she was talking when she saw his gaze turn dangerous. She sheathed her fangs and squeezed a flattering smile on her face. Jay flipped over the blanket and got out of the bed. His handsome face maintained that unpleasant expression. Rose was helpless against his ever-changing mood. All she could do was to humble herself to suit his whims. "Alright, I don't have any objections if you want to renovate the house, but I hope that you can obtain Sean's permission first." As Jay stood in front of the washing basin, hearing Rose's compromising tone of voi

    Grayson narrowed his eyes. "We seem to be on the losing end no matter how I look at it, Sir." He knew that the property prices of Cloudy Dreams were only in the low millions. Meanwhile, the investment in Sean Bell's movie production was worth billions. Jay cast a stern gaze on Grayson. "Are you questioning my decision?" Grayson wiped away the beads of cold sweat on his forehead. "I'll do it right now." Grayson could not understand it as he walked away. "I never knew that he's so willing to lose out on an investment," he mumbled to himself. Grayson gave a call to Sean and told him about Mr. Ares's offer. He thought that Sean would immediately agree, but Sean immediately protested when he heard the offer. "What does he mean? Does he have an objection to me renting Cloudy Dreams to Rose Loyle?" Grayson finally understood the reason behind Mr. Ares's 'stupid' decision. 'Looks like Mr. Ares has been blinded by beauty!' Grayson lamented. Even though Grayson might not agre

    After ending Jay's call, Sean pressed his hand against his forehead. Nancy casually stepped into the office on her high heels. Sean lifted his head lazily and looked at his sister from another mother. "I've heard that share prices have reached the limit down?" Nancy crossed her arms in front of her as she arrived in front of Sean's office table. Sean straightened his back and nodded at her. The corners of Nancy's lips curled upward mockingly. "That's a bold first move for our new company president, my elder brother." Sean glared at Nancy coldly. "I've heard that you have been pestering Mr. Ares incessantly over the past few years?" Nancy's overbearing expression took a sinister turn. "That's none of your business," she huffed. Sean smiled when he saw that she was angry. "Don't you know? Mr. Ares bought Cloudy Dreams from me earlier. Do you know the reason behind that?" Nancy was surprised. "Why did Mr. Ares buy Cloudy Dreams? Isn't it just a normal four-room house? Isn'

    "What do you plan to do?" Rose asked apprehensively. She wanted to know if he had any motives for going out of his way to buy the house from Sean. Sean was at a loss for a reply. So what if he was her landlord? All he wanted was for her to live a little more comfortably. "I wasn't planning on anything," he said. Rose was confused. That man always had a clear goal for his investments and would never take any unnecessary risks, so what was his actual purpose in purchasing the house? Jay furrowed his brows as he looked at the tired woman. "Where have you been?" He asked coldly. Rose was exasperated. "I wouldn't have gone out if Your Highness didn't ask me to get a new bed and frame for him." Jay was surprised. "You went to the physical store? "Why didn't you just buy it online?" He said, rather displeased. Rose slumped on the couch. She wagged her slippered feet. Her silliness was impressive. "I'm afraid that if I don't test it myself, you'll blame me for not choos

    “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
