When the physician came in, Baby Zetty noticed the cart she was pushing and stretched out her arms. She rolled up her sleeves and asked in a sweet tone, “Miss doctor, are you going to draw my blood?”Jay rolled her sleeves back down and explained to her very gently. “There’s no need to examine your blood. We’re using natural therapy this time. The only thing you need to do is cooperate and let this aunty here massage you.”Baby Zetty was slightly puzzled. “I don’t need to take any medication?”“Nope.”“Uncle Jay, is it because you don’t want to spend any money on me? Is that why you don’t want me to go for injections and take medication? Am I going to die?” Baby Zetty asked innocently.Jay, “...”The physician could not help but chuckle. “Baby Zetty, massage therapies are more expensive than injections and medication.”Baby Zetty knew she had misunderstood Jay. Hence, she said somewhat shamefully, “I’m sorry, Uncle Jay.”Jay was silent.What was there to add? The only reason t
The bodyguards were standing on one side in a row, protecting the safety of Grand Old Master Ares.With his crutches, the old man walked quickly to the ward where Baby Zetty was located.All of his sons and daughter-in-laws followed him.Jay frowned when the ward’s door was suddenly kicked open. Fearing that Baby Zetty was about to wake up from all the commotion, Jay covered Zetty’s ears with his hands.This action petrified his grandfather as well as all his uncles and aunties on the spot when they saw it.In their impression, Jay was a walking iceberg and was cold-hearted toward everyone.“What on earth are you doing, Jay?” Jay’s mother walked up to him in a fit.Jay stood up, his sharp gaze condemning the room full of people. “Get out. Baby Zetty needs to rest.”Everyone in the room looked at one another. Did they hear him wrong?“You’re going too far, Jay. You’re willing to chase us, your elders, away for a little girl who has no blood relationship with the Ares?” John exc
“Grandfather!” Jay walked up to his grandfather and called out respectfully.Grand Old Master Ares raised his gaze and squinted. He pointed his thin finger at him. It was trembling continuously due to fury. “Tell me. Is it worth it, doing all of this for a woman?”Jay’s expression appeared grave and stern. He replied instantly, “It is.”Compared to the things that Angeline had done for him, were these things even computable to hers?Grand Old Master Ares was so exasperated that he had trouble breathing. He could barely speak anymore. “You. You… You’ve truly disappointed me.”Jay’s father, Jack Ares, immediately walked over and reprimanded his son harshly, “Jay, watch your attitude when talking to your grandfather.”John aggravated things further by saying, “Jay’s arrogant, so he treats everyone equally with that temper of his. Dad won’t blame him for it, Jack.”Jay ruthlessly shot John a glare. “Perhaps you should shut up.”John embarrassedly rubbed the tip of his nose and stay
One was pressing on the other, while the other stayed unflinching!How would the quibble between these two come to an end?Grand Old Master Ares suddenly stood up, and when he passed by Jay, Jay proceeded to stretch out his hand to hold him back.“Let me know again if you’ve regretted it.” Grand Old Master Ares looked at Jay’s unwavering eyes.Jay announced to the others, “Dad, escort the others out. I’d like to have a few words with Grandfather alone.”Grand Old Master Ares was startled, yet he hobbled back to the chair.He pointed his cane toward the door and ordered the others, “All of you wait outside.”Thus, the others proceeded to file out the room.Jay’s father thoughtfully closed the door behind him, leaving a quiet space for the grandfather-grandson duo. Grand Old Master Ares looked at Jay and pointed to the seat next to him. Then, Jay sat down.“Grandfather, I can explain the two headlines about me. But you have to promise not to make things hard for Rose anymore,”
“That was perhaps due to my negligence last night. The paparazzi was able to take advantage of me.” A layer of frost covered Jay’s handsome face.On Grand Old Master Ares’ hardship-filled face emerged a keen look that could read through the vicissitudes of the smallest changes. “Jay, you’ve lived a quiet life for so many years. The paparazzi in Imperial Capital have no authority, nor do they have power. Who’d dare step on your toes?”“I understand, Grandfather.” Jay’s eyes were filled with darkness. “I’ll make the truth come to light about this matter.”“Paparazzi are certainly hateful, but as an Ares, you should’ve been cautious with your words and actions. Don’t give those hidden maggots a chance to hurt you,” Grand Old Master Ares continued.“I heard from your mother that Rose has left the Garden Of A Diary?”“Yes,” Jay said somewhat regretfully.Grand Old Master Ares looked at his grandson’s unconcealable frustrated expression and felt himself swallowing his anger. “Since Ros
Grand Old Master Ares’ smile froze in the corner of his eyes. “You no longer hesitate to quarrel with your grandfather because of her. It’s as if you’re infatuated and blinded by love. Should I still let you marry her?”Jay replied to him emotionally, “Grandfather, it’s not that I’m crazily in love. I’m merely unable to repay her for all the kindness and favor she has given me.”Grand Old Master Ares frowned with a sense of doubt. Were they talking about the same heroine?“With a snap of a finger, there are plenty of women in Imperial Capital who’ll be kind to you,” Grand Old Master Ares said somewhat disdainfully. Jay shook his head. “No. There’s no one else like her who’ll love me as vast as the ocean.”Grand Old Master Ares was even more confused. He could recall that Jay had mentioned this sentence before, but the person he was talking about at that time was not Rose. “Is she better than your Angeline?”When he brought up Angeline, Jay’s face was filled with a joyous smile.
When the VIP room’s door suddenly opened, the people waiting outside the door immediately surrounded them. Everyone’s gaze was fixated on Grand Old Master Ares and Jay’s facial expressions.Unfortunately for them, both Grand Old Master Ares and Jay were masters in concealing their emotions. Their expressions were the same as always—cold and solemn. It was as if nothing had happened between them. Grand Old Master Ares’ gaze inadvertently glanced toward Baby Zetty’s ward. Then, he said to Jay, “Since her mother isn’t here, you’ll have to bear with it these few days. Once the child is discharged, take her to Tourmaline Estate to play. Bring Jens and Baby Robbie as well. I miss them already. Let’s bring them all back together.”Jay nodded. “Yes, Grandfather.”Everyone was utterly bewildered at the scene. Not only was the grandfather and grandson duo not at each other’s throats, but they were unexpectedly harmonious as well.John murmured lightly, “Dad, Jens and Baby Zetty are the Are
However, this child was not accompanied by her family. As such, the matter was slightly suspicious to the massage therapist.Jay was keen to know what kind of person daddy was to Baby Zetty in her heart. Hence, the long legs that were stepping out immediately retracted.Baby Zetty lowered her head and whispered, “Daddy was here, then he went out again.”“Ah.” The therapist stopped inquiring. It was not a surprise for her that a child would have thoughtless parents. However, the man behind the curtain was shocked by Baby Zetty’s answer.Baby Zetty clearly knew that he was her father, right?Why did she still call him Uncle?“Zetty, you’re so beautiful and adorable. Mommy and Daddy must love you to death,” the therapist chatted with Baby Zetty. It was to distract the child from the discomfort, and she also thought that Baby Zetty was truly cute.“Mommy loves me, but my Daddy doesn’t love me,” Baby Zetty replied nonchalantly. Jay heaved a sigh and opened the curtain. When the d
“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
