Grayson’s eyes widened. “You can get used to this?” Angeline remained silent, her heart thrumming frantically. Grayson had misunderstood Angeline. He honestly believed that she was a heroine of the ages who feared nothing at all. He immediately jumped to follow her orders. By the time Grayson had arranged the medical team onto the vehicle and returned to the hospital room, he found Jay waiting for him with an extremely sour expression. “Where have you been? What took you so long?” Jay’s tone was exceptionally cold. Grayson replied carefully, “The hospital’s care workers are rather busy, so only the rookie could take the time to care for you. But she’s not as skilled as the others.” Jay lifted his dark eyes. Setting his gaze at the door, he found the corner of a cerulean blue uniform peeking out from the side of the door, shuffling about like a mollusk.Jay found himself easily picturing the unease on its owner’s face and their desire to delay the inevitable despite not b
After Angeline put Jay into the wheelchair, she then proudly said, "Sir Ares, I don't have any other merits, but I have great strength. It’s the most suitable to take care of people with mobility impairments like you."Jay and Grayson were shocked by Angeline's strength. If it were large and tall girls who were this powerful, they might not be so surprised.Yet, Angeline looked really thin. She was an exquisite, delicate, and stunning beauty–The kind of greenhouse flower that drew a circle of admirers around it. However, She was able to pick up Jay all by herself. The scene was simply too discordant. Astonishment flashed in Jay's eyes. It was fleeting, and his face was soon restored to its cold and numb expression. "Well, you’re pretty strong," he praised insincerely. Angeline whispered, "Sir Ares, it's not that I’m strong, but that you’re too thin." Jay's lips twitched violently.Was she poking at him for being too thin?Grayson was afraid that the two woul
Their clamor awakened Jay. He cast his sleepy toward the security guards as a cold light filled them.Had his status in the Ares family come to this now?!Were they really treating him as if he was handicapped? "Grayson, the thing they’re touching me with, get it off me." The slow voice had come from the black glass of the car window. It immediately put the security guards at their wits’ ends as they quivered. Upon receiving Mr. Ares' order, almost like lightning, Grayson twisted the hand of the nearby security staff until it dislocated. Several other staff members who were present were so frightened that their faces paled.Grayson walked toward them, and they suddenly knelt on the ground while begging for mercy, "Young Master, we’re sorry. We know we’re wrong now.""Too late," Jay spat out the cold words from between his lips and teeth.Grayson kicked someone in the arm. After hearing a ‘click’, their arm was now useless.Several other people simply inflicted the
Sera's insidious expression was somewhat relaxed.She searched in her heart honestly. She did not actually want Jay to die young because if he died, she would no longer have a target to drain all the humiliation in her body. She would have felt that she was living without meaning.Only when Jay was alive and living a life that was worse than death could she then proudly show off her victories in front of him."Old Master, why don’t you go to Fragrant Vessel Court to find out the news?" Sera suggested.Jack hesitated.He had previously troubled Grand Asia, which was tantamount to falling out with Jay.As soon as he thought that Jay might look at him, his father who raised him for 35 years, with extremely cold and estranged eyes, Jack felt his brazen face burning hot.“Old Master, he’s still your son on the surface. If you don't visit him, you’ll only appear to be of a guilty conscience," Sera said.Jack thought for a moment. "You’re right, I must go."Fragrant Vessel Court. A
As if performing a magic trick, Angeline took out a bell from her pocket and put it next to Jay's pillow, saying, "If you need me to help you, you can ring the bell."Jay looked at the exquisite golden bell, his handsome face turning dark.Was this girl treating herself like a pet at his beck and call?What virtues or abilities did he have to earn her deep love?Angeline reluctantly left.Jay stretched out his hand and grabbed the bell. Just as he wanted to throw it out, he saw a few words written on the bell, "Non-abandonment bell." Was this not the bell he had given her before?When they were out on excursions before, he had asked someone to customize this bell for her as she had been timid and did not dare to sleep alone. When she was scared at night, she could just ring the bell and he would immediately appear next to her.The ‘Non-abandonment Bell’ solved the problem of her not being able to sleep alone.He did not expect her to have kept it till now.Jay was not will
But when Jade leaped forward, Angeline did not even blink or furrow her brows. She made a kick that looked careless and kicked Jade to the farthest distance in the room.Jack and the madam were dumbfounded.Angeline stretched out her hand and made a questioning gesture. His face was expressionless, and her voice was not warm when she said, "Master, Madam, please go back!"Jack and the madam's expressions were so ugly as if they had eaten a kilo of crap.The madam was unwilling to be bullied by the nurse, so she screamed, "Jay, you’re our child who we brought up through bitter hardship. Now your parents want to see you but it’s even harder than scaling up to the sky! Is your heart made of iron and stone?" In the bedroom, Jay was awakened by the voice of his adoptive mother and frowned.He wanted to get up to see what was happening, but his lower body was heavy as lead and stone. He was unable to move at all.At last, he looked at the bell next to him with great resentment. He
James stared at his son who had his arm turned out silently.Once the discussion amongst the third wife’s family was over, Jay then opened his mouth and said, "It doesn't matter whether or not my legs work. I’ve never relied on my legs to bully people. Instead, I rely on this here."He pointed to his forehead gracefully.Jean said to Jay practically with adulation, "Of course, it’s Big Brother. I knew from the start that there’s nothing in the world that can hold you back." Jay’s appearance held a smile.A mocking sneer flashed in Jack’s gaze. "Jay, since your legs are useless now, I’ll send a few more people to protect you in the future. You’re a distinguished young master of Imperial Capital. There are many people who want your life!"These words seemed to show care but were in fact words that were deliberately trying to refute Jay’s reliance on his own mind to live.With a smile that did not exactly look like a smile, Jay cocked a brow at Jack. There seemed to be warmth ex
Jay raised his eyes to look at Angeline and his gaze was one that of intrigue. “Your skills aren’t bad. Who taught you?"Angeline blurted out, "My brother."Jay’s gaze was cold. When he was a teenager, he had taught her Taekwondo, but it seemed that she completely forgot about it. The fact that she had picked it up again in the past two years was obviously not to his credit.Angeline also seemed to have realized that she had answered the question wrongly and corrected herself. "I trained in a Taekwondo gym." "Why did you learn it?" Jay asked in surprise."To protect the man I like," Angeline said shyly.Jay’s lips twitched!Why would he want a weak woman like her to protect him?"The man you like, he probably would want you to be a feeding thing, just like a useless mollusk. It’s not as if he likes you because you’re sturdy and powerful and can be his slave!" Jay said coldly. Angeline took a while to digest the meaning of his words. Suddenly, her apricot shaped eyes open
