Storm received it and lightly sniffed at it, his expression changing. “Where did you get this from?”“What is it?” Jenson asked.Storm did not want to teach the kids something that they should not be taught, so he pocketed the paper wrapping.Jenson was unhappy. “That’s our stuff! ”Storm replied, “I’ll keep it safe for you.”“On what authority?” Jenson was upset.“On the authority that I’m older than you," Storm replied. “An elder picking on the young.”“Shameless.”“...” Storm was speechless.Jenson said maturely, “Even if you don’t say it, I know what that is.”Storm stared blankly at Jenson and questioned brilliantly, “Since you already know what it’s for, why do you still want me to put in your grandfather’s breakfast?”A hint of rage surfaced in Jenson’s eyes. “I’m just giving him a taste of his own medicine.”Storm was stunned for a while. “Jens, what do you mean? Was Jack planning to do that to your father?”Jenson nodded.Storm was furious. He clenched his fist
He got up and slowly approached Sera.“Old Master Jack? What’s the matter?” Sera felt that his gaze seemed rather scary, so she quickly took a few steps back.“Sera Severe, how bold of you to drug me!” Jack was filled with anger, but the peculiar feeling building inside him was causing the anger to gradually weaken. It was getting replaced with a desire.Sera’s complexion turned as white as paper. She did not understand what had happened either. She had drugged Jay, yet he was well while Jack was experiencing the effects.She turned around to run out of the room. Right now, she only had one goal, and that was to protect her chastity because she wanted to preserve it for Jay who was a clean freak.Unfortunately, the study was locked. She was worried that someone would find out that she was colluding with Jack, thus she had locked the door securely to prevent anyone from entering. Now that she was under pressure and nervous, it was going to be a feat to unlock the door.Jack leaped
The thought of this man trying to murder Rose made Jay’s anger rose. “Who are you?” He approached the man step by step.“You want to know?” the man asked.Jay looked at the man’s ghost-like complexion and understood that this man hardly exposed himself under the sun. He mocked the man, saying, “I don’t think you have the guts to face a living breathing human like me after living like a nonentity without seeing the sun for your whole life.”The man was angered by Jay and tried to reach out to grab Jay’s neck, but the latter managed to catch his hand. Jay lifted him and slammed him onto the ground. The series of movements were done fluidly.“Jay Ares, you should be the person in hiding. I’m only here on your behalf.” The man lay on the ground, his pale complexion appearing almost translucent under the sunlight.“Do you know how much I hate you?” The man’s beautiful peach blossom eyes appeared sunken, but they were still attractive.Jay took a good look at the man who seemed rather
“This is the dirty secret of the Ares family. To cover this up, the Ares family had to sacrifice countless innocent people. Even the woman you loved so dearly died because of this. As for me, the reason I’m living behind the shadows is to protect this secret. Aren’t you asking the wrong person?”The man slowly stood up and reached for a syringe and needle that were in his pocket.Jay was stunned for a moment but managed to evade the needle just as it was about to reach him. He barely brushed past the needle.Jay was immensely furious. He picked up the needle and attacked the man, placing it at the man’s throat.“You’re the one who killed Angeline?”The man revealed an enchantingly evil smile. “Indeed. What a beautiful girl just like your mother. She had a face that could rival Helen who caused the downfall of Troy. She had a face that could make countless men grovel at her knees. I didn’t want to kill her, but she knew too much. I had no choice but to intricately set up a car acci
“Nobody’s going near,” Tempest ordered demandingly.“We can’t beat up the young master, but we can beat this fella up. Let’s go.” Then, more than ten people surrounded Tempest.“F*ck!” Tempest cursed as he leaned his back against the wall as the punches from those men rained on him.Jay slowly walked inside, going past a path made of wooden planks to see a row of rooms. Jay’s heart inexplicably started beating rapidly.He pushed open the only door that was shut. On the bed was a woman with a thin figure. Before Jay could take a good look at her, she speedily hid under the covers.Jay gulped before his heavy footsteps led him to the bedside.He saw a lock of long hair sticking out of the covers. He was feeling indescribably nervous.Jay cleared his throat before his deep and mesmerizing voice echoed in the room. “I won’t harm you. Please come out.”The woman stuck her head out of the blanket. When Jay saw her face, he stumbled in shock.Time had not erased the beauty of her you
“Scram.” Jay growled.The man inched forward with his hands curled into fists. His gaze was filled with determination to protect what belonged to him.“Don’t hurt him,” Jay’s mother painfully pleaded.Jay said, “I’m bringing her out and nobody can stop me.” His tone revealed a ruthless and deathly aura.Tempest had finally gotten rid of the bunch of hunchbacked men and stood in front of Jay.“President, leave first. I’ll clean up,” Tempest said.“Okay.” Jay piggybacked his mother toward the exit of the cave.The woman cried out in despair, “Child, please don’t hurt him.”Jay’s back stiffened.His mom wanted to protect that man from the depths of her heart perhaps because she had deep feelings for that man. This made Jay despise himself.The origin of his birth may not have stemmed from love because the man who his mom loved was this man who had been by her side all these years.“Tempest, let’s go,” Jay said, growling.Tempest ran over to Jay and escorted them to safety.“A
Jack nodded as if agreeing with Jay’s plans.Jack left with his hands behind him and came face to face with Jordan who had chased after Jay all the way there.When the two men met, their gaze was calm and so was their expression.“Big Brother,” Jack called out respectfully.“Don’t call me your big brother. I find you Ares people dirty.” The man scoffed after speaking.Jack chuckled. “What you have today is only because of what you and your mother had done. You can’t blame anyone for it.”“My mother and I merely didn’t want to collude with you corrupted people,” Jordan said.“You should learn to bow to reality.” A troubled scorn appeared in Jack’s gaze. “Big Brother, back then, you looked so youthful and energetic, yet now you’re left with this ugly appearance.”“What you’re referring to is only the outer shell. People like you may look grand and noble, but only you yourself know how despicable you are on the inside.”Jay turned around to look at the two men with a thoughtful g
Jay was feeling complicated inside.He felt warm and comforted that his mother and Jordan shared an unchanging love.It reminded him of Angeline and himself. In this lifetime, he was ready to love her forever and was determined to live his whole life with her.He had the same undying and unchanging love for Angeline as Jordan had for Chloe.At that moment, he was wishfully thinking. Maybe he was the fruit of Jordan and Chloe’s love?He stood up and slowly walked toward the stairs.Jordan continued to hug the woman he loved as he stared begrudgingly at Jay. He yelled at Jay, “Jay Ares, you’re as heartless as him.”Jay ignored Jordan and lowered his body as he gently asked his mother, “Tell me, do you love this man in front of you?”The woman nodded. Perhaps this tugged on the strings of her heart, so her tears began to flow.“He’s the only man I’ve ever loved in my life. My son, please don’t make it difficult for him.”There was a pang of pain in Jay’s expression as he tried t
“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
