That night, Jay did not come home.After Rose had put the children to sleep, she returned to the room that Jay had prepared for her. Although she laid in bed, she could not find herself falling asleep.She pitied herself and worried about Josephine.In the middle of the night, her room door swung open without warning. Consequently, Rose was startled.When she turned on the lights, she saw Jenson standing at the door, staring blankly at her. “Mommy, may I sleep with you?”Rose smiled at Jenson and reached out her hand. “Come over.”Jenson closed the door behind him and laid next to Rose.Rose looked up at the clock on the wall to check the time. ‘It’s midnight, but Jenson is still awake?’She caressed Jenson’s little ears as she asked gently, “Share with me what is bothering you from sleeping?”Jenson shifted his body on the bed and laid sideways to look at Rose.Within his eyes, she could see a mixture of doubt, fear, and uneasiness.Rose fiddled with his earlobe as she had
Baby Zetty was used to calling him uncle. Additionally, Jay had neither revealed her identity nor decided to reunite with her.Rose quickly got out of bed but did not have enough time to cover up the tiredness in her face.Just as she had dressed up, Jay appeared in front of her door. The latter was leaning on the door frame and was displaying a subtle smile.Rose grabbed her messy hair in annoyance.Baby Robbie and Baby Zetty had forgotten to close the door after coming into her room to greet her good morning.“Good morning, Sir Ares.” Rose smiled awkwardly.There were traces of bitterness in her smile.Jay looked at Rose. Her eyes looked very beautiful, but it was not enough to conceal the dark circles she had. What more, the worries that had risen within her gaze.“You didn’t sleep well last night?” He asked.Rose knew that she could not hide it from him and thus nodded.“Why?”Rose looked at him. There was a sense of self-mockery in her gaze. “Is Sir Ares worried about m
The sports car sped across the wide street.From time to time, Sean Bell would glance at the back to look at Rose Loyle who was sitting in the back. He was amused and thus teased her."What am I supposed to say about you? All the ladies in Imperial Capital are desperate to try and get close to him. Not to mention, fawn over him. You have the chance to become the great Mrs. Ares, however, you’ve chosen to decline him. Should I say you're silly, dumb, or foolish?""What's so great about being Mrs. Ares? If I’ll always have to look at that grumpy face, I'll either end up developing endocrine disorders or neurological disorders." Rose had developed a desire for revenge. If she could not have him, then what was so good about him?Sean could not help but chuckle. "Hehe."When the sports car turned into Imperial Capital's Middle Ring Road, Sean reminded Rose, "The company is just up ahead. If you don't want my two-faced sister to give you any trouble, you should hurry and put on some mak
Sean's temples started throbbing.Nancy started adding fuel to the flames. "Father, she's the one who instigated Brother to snatch Ares Enterprises’ screenplay and influence, deliberately causing a rift between Bell Enterprise and Ares Enterprises. In my opinion, she must be a commercial spy sent by a third party!"A cold, cunning sneer appeared on Stanley Bell's handsome and resolute expression. "Guards, tie her up and send her to Ares Enterprises to plead her guilt."Sean saw that the situation was taking a turn for the worse. He quickly pulled Rose behind him. "Father, Rose isn’t a commercial spy. She… She's the woman that your son likes!"Stanley stared at Sean in shock. "What did you say?""I said, she's my girlfriend!" Sean said pointedly.Nancy was so astonished that her mouth formed into a half-circle. "Are you insane, Brother? Have you ever thought about the consequences of stealing Master Ares' woman?"Stanley was in disbelief, and he was so furious that he started tre
After the rain, the autumn chill faded and ushered in the frigid winter.Nancy sat on a swivel chair with her phone in her hand. She was tapping on the phone screen repeatedly, then she turned off the phone's screen again and again.Finally, Nancy mustered up the courage and turned on her phone's screen. She found Jay Ares' name in her contacts and called him.The phone rang for a long time before Jay’s cold tone spoke up from the other end, "What?"Nancy was so nervous that her palm started sweating. "Master Ares… I… I have something to tell you.""Speak." Jay sounded increasingly impatient."My brother and Rose are together." Nancy bit her lip. She did not believe that he would not be interested in this message.Just as she expected, Jay pulled the phone closer as his enchanting voice became even clearer. However, it also turned colder. "What did you say?"Even from the other end of the call, she could feel the coldness that radiated off him."My brother and Rose are togethe
Jay shot an icy glare at Jean. He reached out his hand and said, "Give it to me."Jean passed him the documents he was holding and said smugly, "Brother, my French is improving drastically. If you don't believe me, you can test me!""Dégagé!" Jay snapped coldly.Jean replied, "I know what this means. Get lost, right? Does it mean 'get lost'?"Grayson could not help but laugh.Jean realized that he was being bullied by his cousin, and his smug expression was suddenly wiped off his face. "Brother, can't you share a little of Sister-in-law's gentleness with me?"When he mentioned Rose, Jay's expression darkened further.Jean looked at his cousin's icy expression and teased him. "So there are also women in this world who you can't handle. Haha, women like Sister-in-law. You can't lock up her heart, but you can lock her up as a person…"Jay could not compare to John and Josephine who were sentiment experts. At that moment, when he heard Jean's plan, he lost his temper.He threw the
Rose Loyle was pondering. Jay had agreed to work with Severe Enterprise. However, the written contract had not been signed yet. What if he backed out?She had to urge Severe Enterprise to do it as soon as possible.Rose arrived at Eminent Honor Co. Ltd. to look for Zayne Severe. From a distance, she could see Zayne and Josephine clinging to each other."Zayne, when will you come to my house to ask about my hand in marriage?" Josephine looked up at Zayne, her eyes glittering with a look of anticipation.Zayne held Josephine's face and said, "If I go over to your house and ask for your hand in marriage, won't your brother kick me out?"Josephine beamed. "That depends on your sincerity. If you're not sincere enough, my brother might just chase you out with a bat!"A fearful expression appeared on Zayne's face. "Your brother’s too protective of you. Won't he feel guilty if he ends up turning a pretty young girl like you into an old lady that no one wants?"Josephine hit her fists ag
She served him justice on behalf of Josephine Ares.Zayne Severe clutched his nose, glaring and seething with rage. "Rose Loyle, do you think that I wouldn't dare to hit a woman? Let me tell you something, don't provoke me. When I'm provoked, I wouldn't even show myself mercy, never mind you."He spoke harshly, but he never made a move.Rose understood that he was not the type of person who would typically raise his hand against a woman."Don't play with Josephine's feelings," Rose warned him once more.Zayne retorted, "So Jay Ares is allowed to toy with my sister, but I'm not allowed to toy with his? Where's the logic in that?" Rose was so livid that she aimed a sweeping kick at him, knocking Zayne off his feet."Damn, don't cross the line. If you physically assault me again, don't blame me if I do the same to you."Rose squatted beside him, looking at his disheveled appearance. "Promise me you won't go to see Josephine."Zayne spat in her direction. "Bah, mind your own busi
