“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
“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
