Jay made more than a dozen calls to Rose, but her phone remained switched off. He called Josephine who took a look at the furious mother-daughter duo, then a look at the incoming caller ID before she quietly hung up on him. Jay looked depressedly at his phone. For the first time in his life, he felt that the small, weak women were difficult to take care of. “Grayson, how do I coax a woman?” Jay asked listlessly as he slumped against the back of his chair. Looking at the mirror, Grayson gave the frustrated Mr. Ares an incredulous look. Mr. Ares had started his business when he was still a teenager and effectively cut through the black and white of the business world. Even the most cunning people and evil wolves had nowhere to hide in his presence. Yet, he was stumped by a few women.“Mr. Ares, I have no experience in coaxing women. You’ll have to ask your fourth uncle for help. He’s one of the most flirtatious men I’ve met.” Grayson had a look of admiration on his face when
Jay extended his hand and Grayson promptly passed him the phone. Jay said coldly, “Didn’t you want the newest Maybach? Help me get Rose back and I’ll give you one.” John was surprised. “Jay, are you sure that you want to remarry Rose? Hey, I’ll be a good fourth uncle and remind you of this. With your qualifications, you should have your eyes on the entire world instead of hanging yourself onto the neck of one tree, alright?” “Cut the cr*p,” Jay ordered. Seeing how he would get the newest Maybach after this, John decided to put up with his little nephew’s rudeness. “Don’t be impatient. Let me break it down for you. Firstly, Rose doesn’t care about money. We can tell that from when Baby Robbie rejected the generous rewards from his great-grandpa. She’s a poor, foolish woman who only has her backbone left.” Jay said angrily, “John Ares, watch your words.” “Yo, no way. Jay, you used to wish that we’d all help to drown her to death by spitting on her, and now you get angry when
A Rolls-Royce was leading a grandiose convoy of floats, moving from the flower market to the Shangri-La Hotel in the city center.At this time, Baby Zetty had tired herself out from crying and was now asleep in her mother's arms. From time to time, she mumbled in her sleep, "I don't want Daddy. Daddy’s a bad person."Rose’s eyes were red, and her heart felt as if it had been cut with a knife.There was a knock on the door of the hotel all of a sudden. Josephine looked toward her desolate-looking sister-in-law and took the initiative to get up and open the door."Sister-in-law, come quick."Hearing Josephine’s exclamation, Rose put Baby Zetty on the bed and walked out.Outside the door was a sea of bright red roses.The ground was covered with a thick layer of petals and there were white floats on both sides of the road. Inside the floats were heart-shaped roses.After counting them, there were 11 floats.Josephine stared at the sight in surprise. "How many roses do you even
It might just be a good thing for her sister-in-law that she had this clear understanding.Josephine had always felt that her brother could marry any woman, but he just could not give love.The door bell was still ringing...It was so noisy that Josephine immediately stuffed two tufts of cotton into her ears.Rose hesitantly walked to the door to open it.She looked at the two men outside the door with deep resentment. Grayson was dazed. Why was Rose angry?Mr. Ares’ time was money. For him to be waiting here for half an hour, who knew how much money had been wasted? It was Mr. Ares who should be angry.Josephine was afraid that her sister-in-law who held resentment against her brother would provoke him out of spite. Fearing that Rose would be the one to lose out, she hurriedly went out to help smooth things over."Brother, why are you here again?" This was her pretending not to have heard the endless doorbell ringing.Jay's knife-sharp eyes glared at Josephine's hypocritical
Josephine and Baby Zetty arrived at Garden Of A Diary soon after. Josephine had hurriedly parked the car at the side of the road before running inside while pulling along Baby Zetty. Seeing Jenson and Baby Robbie happily playing with crickets in the garden, Josephine's heart sank heavily. Had her brother not come back yet? It did not make sense. He drove like mad earlier. He should not have been slower than her.Josephine asked Jens and Baby Robbie, "Jens, Baby Robbie, have your father and mother come back yet?""Yeah." The two adorable treasures nodded in unison.Josephine's eyes widened in surprise. Now that he was back, how could the children still be playing with crickets so calmly? Had they not seen their Daddy and Mommy arguing?Josephine stomped two crickets into a pulp with one foot while Baby Robbie and Jenson raised their eyes to look at her condemningly. "Aunt Josephine, what are you up to now? Why are you stomping on our crickets?"Josephine criticized in a low vo
Jay was caught between laughter and tears. "What are you doing?"Josephine burrowed her head into Jay. Jay pushed her back with one hand and discourteously showed her the door. "You should go home."Through the gap in the door panel, the children saw Mommy sitting on the bed, wrapped in a white quilt and remarkably alike a snowman that was motionless.The children were worried about Mommy and shouted, "Mommy, are you alright?"Jay said with a dark expression, "She’s great."She was acting on her high horse in front of him today. Having nowhere to vent his anger, he then finally thought of using this trick to punish her.Before he had even succeeded, he was ruined by these little rascals. It ought to be him who was the bad guy.The children obviously did not believe Daddy's words and squeezed in to visit Mommy. Jay had simply opened the door when Josephine ran in with the children.“Mommy." Baby Zetty and the others climbed onto the bed, hugging Mommy's neck while preparing
Downstairs, Baby Zetty had tears in her eyes while she was in Josephine's arms. "Aunt Josephine, why did Uncle bully Mommy?"Josephine looked at Baby Zetty’s fair jade-like face. The child was so simple, and there were no traces of impurities in her eyes. "Baby Zetty, Uncle didn't bully Mommy..." Josephine really did not know how to explain it to her. "You’re lying to me. Uncle bit Mommy's neck. I saw many wounds on Mommy's neck." Baby Zetty sobbed, her teardrops rolling down her face.Josephine slapped her forehead. She really did not know how to explain it to Baby Zetty.Not long after, Jay and Rose walked down one after another. Rose had changed back into her clothes and deliberately chose a high-necked grass-green cashmere sweater to cover her neck.Baby Zetty looked at Jay as if she was seeing an enemy from a lifetime ago. She suddenly lowered her head and made a signature action for when she hated someone.She rolled her eyes till they were white. It was a terrifying loo
"Brother, are you really going to remarry Sister-in-law?" Josephine asked excitedly.Jay nodded."Brother, are you sure that you’ve come to this decision after careful consideration and not because you’ve taken the wrong prescription or are being impulsive?" Josephine turned into a gossip paparazzi and was asking questions as if she was trying to get to the bottom of things.The children’s eyes shifted between Aunt Josephine and Daddy. They seemed to be very concerned about this topic.Jay thought about it for a bit. When he learned that Rose was Angeline, he had not thought much about it at all and immediately made the decision to marry her."I didn’t think too deep into it," he said honestly.Rose sighed weakly.She knew he did not love her at all.Josephine saw Rose's hardly concealed expression of disappointment and rebuked her brother, "Big Brother, please, have some EQ, will you? Sister-in-law will be very sad if you give her an answer like this."Jay looked at Rose. "Re
“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
