Jay’s attractive features darkened further. “People, I want these flowers thrown out.” Jay’s tone was sinister. Suddenly hearing Jay’s voice, Rose shot up in shock. A few handsome-looking men in black suits and sunglasses flooded the room and quickly cleared away the roses fluidly, leaving nothing behind. Rooted in place, tears threatened to fall from Rose’s eyes from how wronged she felt. Jay stared at her, fuming. “Don’t you know some patients could be allergic to flowers?” Rose opened her mouth but remained silent. Why was he picking on her? He was well aware her grandfather was not allergic. “Yes, Sir. I understand. It won’t happen again,” Rose said, whimpering. Seeing as he had once again brought her to tears, Jay felt the flames of frustration lick in his chest. “Who sent them?” he asked coldly. “A friend,” Rose replied. “Boyfriend?” Rose neither nodded nor shook her head. Despite being a girl, Josie went through the trouble of cross-dressing to play
Waking up, Rose realized a horrible truth. She was allergic. “Ah!” The sound of a pig getting slaughtered rang from the bathroom, causing Josephine to fall from the bed in shock. “What happened?” Josie dashed to the bathroom to see Rose’s fair skin dotted with red rashes under her loose collar. It matched the color of her face. Josephine stared in shock. “You’re allergic to pollen?” Rose facepalmed herself. “Rose Loyle’s body is naturally weak. I can’t believe I forgot about it.” Josie immediately walked off to message her brother with her phone. ‘Immediately! Right now! Get rid of your roses!’Receiving such a message early in the morning had Jay’s mood immediately worsen. She had evidently loved the flowers others sent her yet at the same time would sweep his precious flowers out her door. What was the meaning of this? He replied indifferently, ‘Get rid of them yourself.’After a simple breakfast, Jay arrived at the company. Grayson then professionally rela
Jay’s brows furrowed tightly, and Grayson immediately cut to the chase. “Mr. President, the rascal brought Missus to a bar an hour ago.” Flames of fury poured from Jay’s cold eyes. “Damn it!” Standing elegantly, frost oozed off his lithe figure in oppressive waves. The next moment, his long legs marched toward the door. Grayson dared not make a sound as he pondered which side he should stand on. After all, by ending this rascal, the president was bound to have a conflict with the missus. “Janice wishes to see you, Mr. President,” the secretary reported as she panted from running over. This woman was Janice, the Australian contact for the new project between Grand Asia and Australia. “Let her wait.” The secretary replied, “Janice said time is of the essence, Mr. President. She has to catch the flight after negotiating the details with you.” “Tell her my backyard caught fire.” The secretary gaped at him. Grayson waved a hand to dismiss her. “Have her wait a short wh
“Where’re you taking my man?” Rose swayed on her feet as she tried to follow after them. However, her path was blocked with a terrifyingly angry Jay Ares. “Who am I?” Rose stared at him. Blinking innocently, she lifted a hand to rub her sleepy eyes in a confused manner. “Haven’t we met before, handsome?” Grinding his molars, Jay stared coldly at her. “You tell me.” Rose smiled foolishly. “I’m very extroverted when it comes to handsome men, you see. Though you do look familiar, I don’t think I’ve met you before. Since every fortune of mine from my previous and current life has been wasted on Jay Ares, that stupidly handsome b*stard.” Jay’s chiseled features twitched. Rose had both praised and scolded him with one mere sentence. His reticent expression revealed that he did not know whether to laugh or cry in response. He watched Rose place a friendly arm on his shoulder in the aforementioned extroverted manner. She was drunk beyond comprehension. She must have drunk a l
Josie sang the next line, “Ooh, you know I love it when you call me senorita. I wish it wasn’t so damn hard to leave ya.” Rose continued, “But every touch is ooh-la-la-la. It’s true la-la-la. Ooh, I should be running, Ooh, you keep my coming for ya.” Despite its melodious tune, the song ended up warped beyond recognition from the two drunkards, sounding worse than mourners at a funeral.Grayson’s heart skidded and fell at the women’s intonations, shooting up to the clouds only to drop down to hell. Grayson sighed silently, thinking, ‘With the way they’re singing, you’d think they’re out for blood!” After much effort, they finally got the two women into the staff residency. Then, Jay instructed Grayson and the rest, “Wait for me outside!” Immediately, Grayson’s and the bodyguards’ expressions brightened at the prospect of freedom. They fled faster than hares from predators. Worn out from all the singing, Josephine lay on the sofa as her voice slowly drifted off. “I love it
It dawned on Jay that Rose was allergic to pollen. She only threw his roses away as she had no other choice but to do so.At that, the anger in his chest simmered to a small flicker. He redressed Rose and finally put her to sleep after dealing with quite the fuss she put up. In her dreams, Rose muttered unstoppably, “Let’s get married, Josie. Both Zayne Severe and Jay Ares can go to hell!”Jay’s eyes grew cold as the corners of his lips tugged into a sneer. “Going to pretend nothing happened after provoking me, Zayne Severe?” Josephine fell with a sudden thud off the sofa. He stared at the woman who continued to sleep even after somersaulting onto the floor. He had always taken her as an innocent idiot he needed to protect, but it never crossed his mind that this moron would one day become the biggest threat of his life. Indeed, one should never judge a book by its cover!Jay felt the need to call for extraordinary measures before this pair of best friends further develope
The bodyguard approached her. “Let’s go, Madam Josephine.” Josephine yelled back at the bodyguard, “‘Dumb my foot! Your entire family is dumb!” The bodyguard was shocked! Forced into the car, Josie stared nostalgically at the medical department’s staff residency and waved. “Farewell, Sister-in-law.” By her side, Jay spared her a cold look. Josephine’s affectionate expression only intensified the frost in his eyes. “Do you want to marry her?’ Josie nodded. “Yeah.” Realizing what she had said, she turned to look fearfully at Jay before shaking her head in a way that resembled a pellet drum. “You’ve definitely misunderstood Sister-in-law and me, Jay. We’re both women, so how can we get married to each other?” Jay’s gaze fell on her. “It’s possible to do it overseas.” Despite how harmless her brother looked, Josephine could almost feel his soft voice suffocating her like a devil’s hand on her throat. Josephine kept her mind sober. “Say her and I do get married, Jay.
It was a desolate night for desolate men. Standing by the floor-to-ceiling window in his study, Jay lifted his head to stare off into the distance. His gaze fell on Imperial Capital’s most prominent high-rise building—Grand Asia. He wondered when would be the day he could bring his beloved home. The laptop on the study desk displayed the colorful scenes of the game silently, but the familiar notification of a mutual coming online did not ring despite his strong desire. Jay could not help but feel frustrated. Perhaps she found no need to come online without Josie present. Ding ding!The notification of a mutual coming online suddenly sounded from the laptop. Jay was quick to arrive before his desk. Seeing the profile icon of ‘Chasing Men While Lugging A Saber’ brighten with colors, anger tinted Jay’s attractive appearance. ‘Chasing Men While Lugging A Saber’ had sent him a short text. ‘You free?’ Jay replied, ‘Yeah.’Chasing Men While Lugging A Saber then said, ‘I can’
