“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
“Forever and ever!”He was brought to laughter by Angeline’s cuteness.“Hubby,” Angeline called him with a blushing face.“Wifey,” he responded.Look at what happened now?As they had accidentally climbed into this secret underground room and overheard such a secret, they paid for their mistake at a great price.Jordan had caused him to suffer from selective amnesia while it cost Angeline her life.Fortunately, the heavens pitied him and allowed Angeline to transmigrate and have a second chance at life.The unfortunate thing was that he seemed to have run out of luck.This time, Angeline did not return to him....“Angeline, where are you?“I miss you so much.“You said you’d never leave me but you’ve repeatedly left me. How could you be so disobedient?”Jay’s body gradually submerged under the water.When Tempest realized that Jay was acting strangely, he leaped across levels of hurdles and rushed toward Jay.“President.”He fished Jay out of the water and did chest c
As the layers of bandages were peeled away, Rose’s eyes that had not seen sunlight for some time were greeted with a strong ray of it.Rose felt amazingly stunned when she saw that familiar face in the mirror.She was as beautiful as a fairy that came to the human world and attracted attention. She was elegant, yet there was a hint of playfulness in her.Peter was stunned as well. “I thought you’d at most be a beautiful sculpture. I didn’t expect that you’d bring life to this face.”Rose smiled beautifully. ‘Of course. This is my face to begin with.’“Thank you, Peter! I love it very much!”Peter spoke from the depths of his heart, “Rose, you’re truly the most beautiful being on this earth.”Rose’s expression stiffened. She turned around and corrected Peter solemnly. “Peter, Rose Loyle is dead. Call me Angeline Severe from now on.”Peter crossed his arms over his chest and nodded understandingly. “Understood!”Many girls would change their names after undergoing cosmetic surge
Jay hired the best doctors from Grand Asia to treat his mother and graciously helped Jordan to recuperate his health.Under Jordan’s meticulous care, Jay’s mother’s condition improved by leaps and bounds. Her weight had increased from the initial 20kg to 38kg.As her health improved, her unique beauty and attractiveness began to show.As for Jordan, he was now no different from a normal human.Fragrant Vessel Court was blooming with renewed life, but at the same time, it was bringing about unrest to the residence of the other courtyards within the estate.The three brothers, Jack, Jacob, and also James who was in a wheelchair, came to see Grand Old Master Ares together.Jack spoke of his worries. “Dad, do you know that Jay and Jordan are getting too close to each other? I’m worried that they’ll join forces and bring harm to all of us. After all, there’s a possibility that they’re...”Grand Old Master Ares shot a death glare at Jack when he spoke about it. Grand Old Master Ares w
Speaking of the devil.Not long after, the elders of the Ares family brought Sera Severe over to Fragrant Vessel Court to settle scores with Jay.Sera’s pregnant figure was obvious for all to see, and when she saw Jay, she pitifully knelt in front of him.“Brother Jay, I’m sorry. I couldn’t bear to abort our child and the adults found out about our affair.” Sera’s voice was getting softer, carrying hints of guilt as she faked shyness.Jay coldly looked at her pregnant belly as a bloody murderous gaze began to fill his eyes. “Sera Severe, I think you’ve grown tired of living that you even dare to make slanderous remarks?”Sera felt uneasy from Jay’s sharp gaze that bore through her as her body gradually shrunk. However, when she remembered that the Ares family’s elders were standing on her side, she mustered the courage to shamelessly say, “Brother Jay, I know that I’m no match for you and you were only together with me for the fun of it, but the child is innocent. If you can’t acc
Jay suddenly felt his stomach making a flip. He had the urge to vomit.The next time he looked at Sera, he wished that he could tear her into bits.Grand Old Master Ares said, “Jay, this incident sounds fishy. You might’ve been set up to end up in bed with Sera.”“I didn’t.” Jay was adamant in rejecting.Then, he disdainfully looked at Sera. “I have no appetite for such women.”Sera was being traumatized severely by Jay’s words, causing her expression to turn ugly.Grand Old Master Ares said, “We shall keep silent about this issue. The truth will be out once Sera delivers her baby. Sera, you’ll stay in Fragrant Vessel Court for the time being. You know Jay’s temper. Stay away from him if there are no issues.”There was a hint of glee in Sera’s gaze. “Okay, Grand Old Master Ares.”Since the issue had been settled, the elders then left for their respective places.Sera remained in the center of the living room, looking at Jay who was as cold as ice. “Brother Jay...” She thought
