Chapter 406

Author: Yan An
Jay arrived at the area and gave orders for a chopper to rescue the people trapped in the middle of the fire.

He then went into the scene of the fire and guided the panicked visitors out in an orderly fashion.

John was also following orders, yet he scolded him, “Jay, you’re mad. You have a death wish! How could you personally come in and give orders? Whose life here is more important than yours?”

However, no one knew what Jay was thinking as he rushed into the sea of flames.

“What are you looking at? Do you have a death wish?” John snatched the hose from a fireman nearby and sprayed it at Jay.

Soon, Jay emerged from the inferno while carrying someone on his back.

Thick smoke blanketed the scene.

John escorted him out of the area.

After 40 minutes or so of burning, the blaze was finally put out.

Jay gave instructions to John on how to deal with the aftermath. “Investigate the source of the fire, which guests resided in rooms affected by the fire, and also… Catch that arson

    Rose’s mind flooded with a horrific scene of Jay wanting to harm her...Was he testing her?Rose maintained her tone, “Even if you put a magnet on me, I can’t escape from your grasps.”As she lifted her wrist, her timer was gone. Rose shrieked with frenzy, “Ah, where’s my timer?”She glared at him angrily, saying, “You tricked me. You took the timer off of me, so does that mean that you gave your body for nothing?”Gave his body for nothing? Jay’s temple twitched intensely. She grabbed the towel beside her, wrapped herself in it, and got out of the tub before rushing outside, not noticing that a savage expression had slowly surfaced across Jay’s face. A sudden punch to the surface of the water formed countless ripples, splashing water on his face. Perhaps something more sinister was behind the incident that happened to Rose. He felt terribly uneasy.She had selective amnesia!Rose rushed downstairs, sat on the sofa, and held the teacup shakily to drink its contents. Afte

    Who needed reminding?Rose quickly put on the dress even though it was a little small. Her hands had a hard time getting through the sleeve, so Jay had to walk over and help her unzip the side of the sleeve.Her face was flushed with an intense redness as she felt inadequate as a woman for not being as familiar with the dress as he was.He slowly picked at every part of the dress, then he looked at her. His cold, deep-set, lover eyes smiled at her…It seemed to her that he was still the innocent, breezy young man who would never hurt a fly.“Next time, remember to eat on time.”Hearing him, Rose shuddered. Surely he had a sinister intention behind this!“Today’s Grandpa’s 83rd birthday. The birthday party will be held at the England Clubhouse just across the road. Second Uncle has invited a lot of media to live stream the party.”Jay put his hands on Rose’s slender shoulders, gazed at her, and said earnestly yet tenderly, “Promise me that for today, you shall do everything as I

    As she walked out of Fragrant Vessel Court, Rose looked at the wet asphalt road and back at her long dress. A trace of struggle streaked across her brows. Jay walked in front of her and bent down. “Come, I’ll carry you.”Her eyes dilated. Although the dress was precious, it would take an exceptional someone to ride on Sir Ares’ back!“Sir Ares, I think I’ll walk on my own,” she said as she lifted her dress, revealing her snow-white calves. “Get on.” His voice became slightly colder. Rose was bewildered. What was wrong with this guy? Why were his actions so hard to read these days?Left with no other choice, she slowly climbed onto his back, unsure where to place her hands. When Jay stood up, she rocked back and forth. “Hold on to me,” Jay commanded.Rose then carefully put her hands on his shoulders.He wore a very formal suit today with an ocean-blue shirt buttoned to the top, a gray striped tie, and a tailor-made limited edition black suit. It was his most common loo

    Rose’s eyes gaped wide as she exclaimed, ‘He’s that childish?’He should just change his name to Baby Jay then!At the entrance of the clubhouse, tens of bodyguards clad in uniform with rifles in their hands stood orderly on either side of the huge door. “Wow, the allurement of uniforms.” Rose stuck out her tongue playfully.Jay gave her a cold stare.Immediately, she replied with sincerity, “They look really good!”He pulled her close and said, “From now on, you’re not allowed to leave my sight.”“Then, what about when I want to use the restroom? Does Sir Ares want to follow me into the ladies?”Irritated, he retorted, “You’ll follow me into the gents.”Rose, “...”As they entered the clubhouse, Rose was amazed by the number of people it could accommodate.Roman pillars made out of white marble filled the area, and on the walls were life-like sculptures. There were countless arches and chandeliers. This place lived up to its name, the England Clubhouse. Even though there

    “Xavier Ares!”Jay asked casually, “Who is he?”Furious, John scolded, “You have no heart! How many brothers and sisters in the Ares family can you actually name?”He replied coldly, “Can you not leave me hanging like this?”John then said, “He’s the son of your third uncle’s second wife. He had polio when he was a kid, has a bad leg, and was mentally challenged since birth. As for yesterday’s fire, every normal person would have escaped immediately. It was only that poor cripple who died in the flames.”After hearing this piece of news, Jay sank into deep thought. “Mm, he’ll make a good chess piece.”“Chess piece?”“Regarding his death, someone will seek justice for him. If it was an outsider, then the Ares family will have to pay a fortune in compensation. However, since he’s a member of the Ares family, there’ll be a specific way to go about that compensation.”John was confused by what Jay just said.Looking heartbroken, Jay continued, “These interloping women would actual

    Rose said naturally, “Although you Ares family members aren’t lacking in any material wealth, a small gift represents my sincerity! If we were outside, maybe I could still buy calligraphy or art for Old Master Ares—”“Follow me.”Jay brought Rose up to the art room on the third floor of the clubhouse, laid out some papers and pens, and said, “I suppose you can start preparing your gift now?”Pointed at her nose while staring at him, Rose asked, “You want me to draw something as a gift for Old Master Ares’ birthday?”He nodded in response.She did not know whether to laugh or cry. “One, I’m not an artist. Two, I’m not a calligrapher. My drawings and calligraphy are not of any value. Old Master Ares will have my gift thrown out the door.”“Who dares to touch you while I’m around?”Hearing this, she sat before the drawing board and pondered for a long while. Finally, she came up with a poetic birthday wish.“Sir Ares, is this suitable as a gift?”Jay looked at the calligraphy and

    Jay was the eldest grandson, so he pulled Rose over to wish Old Master Ares. “Your grandson wishes you a happy birthday, Grandpa. I hope the coming years will bring you more happiness and health.”Rose bit the bullet and said, “I wish you a blessed birthday, Old Master Ares. May you and your family be blessed with good health all year long!”When the emcee walked down to receive the gift, Rose hesitated to hand it over.Jay gave her a look while Rose stared back at him vengefully, whispering, “Didn’t you say that Old Master Ares wouldn’t open gifts?”“Mm, I meant gifts from outsiders,” Jay said proudly.She wanted to cry but found no tears.God damn it, this b*stard was too good at dismissing people.Under the glaring eyes of onlookers, Rose had no choice but to present her gift. Hanging her head low, she anticipated the voices of mockery.Old Master Ares opened up the gift box and unfurled the scroll.The ink was not dry yet, so his hand was accidentally stained with a bl

    Rose said hurriedly, “I don’t mind being humiliated, just give me money and shame me! The more the better!”Jay burst out laughing. “Little miser.”He removed a credit card from his suit pocket and handed it to Rose. “Take this!”“Sir Ares, does this even have money in it?” She thought that cash was more substantial.Jay’s face darkened. All of his liquidated assets were in there and here she was, suspecting that it was empty.“Go find out yourself,” he said coldly. Then, Rose happily put it away.Glancing over to her, he asked, “When I gave you money back then, why’d you refuse?”She replied proudly, “That was different. Back then, you wanted me to trade my kids, so of course I wouldn’t do that. Today, I’m selling off my calligraphy. Moreover, that calligraphy is worthless, so why won’t I sell it?”Smiling, he said, “Not bad. At least clean money is important to you.”“Of course.”Suddenly, a shriek of horror came echoing from outside the doors!“My son died a horrible de

    “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
