Half an hour later. Cole heard the alarm blaring from the tracking system in Angeline’s phone. However, when he found the phone that had been abandoned in a park, he could not see Angeline at all. He had no choice but to admit that Angeline had successfully escaped him. A bright smile surfaced on his handsome face. “Excellent, Angeline Severe. You have successfully attracted my attention. Don’t ever think of escaping me anymore in this life.” Angeline felt giddy with joy after she successfully escaped Cole Yorks. “I could even escape Jay Ares’ grasp. What are you compared to him?” Angeline hailed a taxi and returned to the Severe household in Swallow City. When the taxi driver pulled to a stop at the door, Angeline said, “Wait for me, I’ll go get money.” Then, she turned and ran toward the large courtyard in the Severe household. “Grandpa, Mom, I’m home.”Angeline stopped in her tracks, dumbfounded when she saw the regal man sitting on the couch in the living room.
Old Master Severe said angrily, “It’s not enough if you only have the ambition. You have to spend the time and effort in managing the Severe family’s company. Today, our biggest competitor is Bell Enterprise. They have severely reduced our market. You have to think of ways to attract our customers back to us and get the company back on track step by step.” Angeline knew that her bad track record was the reason her grandfather did not have faith in her ambition. As such, she straightened her back and asked for instructions from Old Master Severe. “Grandpa, give me a goal. I promise that I’ll achieve it.” When Old Master Severe realized that she was being serious, he said, “Two years. I want you to resume the production of smart chips within the Severe family. Also, dethrone Ares Enterprises as the leader in this field.” Angeline sneaked a look at Cole who was sitting relaxedly and thought to herself, ‘The chip in this man’s phone is so much more advanced than the one produced by A
Old Master Severe rubbed his forehead after Cole left. “Does this mean that you and Jay Ares are done?” he asked tentatively. Angeline nodded. “Yes.” Old Master Severe was shocked. He understood what his granddaughter’s virtues were. Ever since she was a child, she had been crazy over Jay. Jay had pampered her so much and carefully taken care of her infatuation for him, which was why she had not become a running joke. They had been so deeply in love. How could they just split apart? “Can you really let him go?” Old Master Severe felt uncomfortable. Angeline and Jay were a perfect match for each other. If it were not for the current situation, he secretly hoped that they could end up together. Angeline said with conviction, “I gave him my life, but he only trampled on my dignity and decency. I can’t let him hurt me like this, no matter how much I love him.” She smiled brightly at Old Master Severe. “Don’t worry Grandpa. From today onward, I won’t waste my time on datin
Jay had never experienced such emotions. “Do you know who he is?” he asked. Finn became much more talkative when the man’s identity was mentioned. “It’s odd, the man seems to be a foreigner. We couldn’t get his information no matter how we tried. However, judging from his appearance, he must be well to do.” Jay raised his eyes to meet Finn’s gaze, his eyes shining profoundly. Finn had always been a meticulous person. If even he could not find out who the man was, that meant he was a suspicious figure. “Did Old Master Severe reject his proposal?” Jay asked gloomily. Finn replied honestly, “For some reason, Old Master Severe didn’t give him an outright rejection. He merely said that Miss Severe should think it through herself.” Jay’s eyes bulged in shock as he stared at Finn. He said in disbelief, “What did you say?” Old Master Severe knew that he had not given up on Angeline. Why had he not given the man’s proposal an outright rejection? Grayson was furious. “What does
The expression on Jay’s handsome face immediately turned into a furious one. How dare she worship celebrities behind his back? Jay looked at how his son was dressed and no longer thought that he looked dashingly adorable. Instead, he seemed to be in the way. He did not give his two sons any mercy as he said, “Ugly.” Jenson rolled his eyes in frustration at Baby Robbie. In an accusatory tone, he said, “No one asked you to talk so much.” Baby Robbie felt aggrieved. How was he to know that Daddy was so against Mommy’s idols? Then, angered, Baby Robbie teased his dad. “No manners at all.” Jay was ready to slap his sons. With a ferocious expression on his face, he ordered, “All of you stay at home. Daddy will bring Mommy home.” “I bet that Mommy won’t come home if you don’t bring us along,” Baby Robbie said. “Don’t jinx it,” Jenson said, before taking his leave discreetly. Baby Robbie continued giving suggestions. “Daddy, there’s only one way to get Mommy’s forgiveness. Yo
Angeline packed up the documents on the desk, then held the folder with her left hand and walked toward the door.Jay's wheelchair was blocking the door.His eyes never moved away from her figure while Angeline remained indifferent. "Please move,” she said to Jay politely.Jay looked at her directly. His dark eyes were filled with intense unwillingness.How did Angeline and he get to this point?They were worse than strangers.His gaze then fell on her bandaged arm, and no emotions could be heard in his tone of voice when he asked, "Is your arm okay?”Angeline smiled calmly and said softly, "Thank you for your concern, Sir Ares. It's not a big problem for me.”She was calling him ‘Sir Ares’ again.She called him that way when their relationship was at its worst.Angeline's face was stern and cold, but she was not as calm as she looked.After Jay got his haircut, he had a fresher look. His flowy black hair fit well with his palm-sized face. It made his star and moon-like eyes
Sean walked over while Angeline was waiting for the next elevator.Angeline said stiffly, “I know you’ve been conspiring with Jack. Have you ever wondered what price Bell Enterprise will have to pay for treachery after Master Ares’ company reemerges on top?”Sean smiled and said, "Ms. Severe, doing business is like being on a battlefield. It’s either you die or I die. Grand Asia has monopolized the market for many years and made other companies only able to survive by the cracks. He should have seen this day coming. And I think that Grand Asia has one thing in common with his legs. Both of them will never be able to stand up again."Angeline looked at Sean’s elegant and gentle face before she suddenly chuckled. "Sean, I heard that the reason you’re able to stand firmly in Bell Enterprise is solely because of Master Ares’ help to get rid of Stanley Bell. Is this how you return his favor?”Sean said, "When he helped me that day, it was only because of a ruthless condition, which was
Angeline sneered, "I’m not mad at you. Perhaps you don’t know about this, but that day when I walked out of Garden Of A Diary, I was confused and did a stupid thing. I had a car accident but fortunately, the owner of the other car saved me. When I woke up, I realized that I had already given my life to you, so I don’t owe you anymore. From then on, I swore that I’d only live for myself. So, Sir Ares, I hope that you can let me go too."Jay was silent, and he started to look worse.It turned out that he had hurt her deeply that day. She even thought of killing herself.Every word from Angeline hurt him deeply. “I’ve been living my life for you for so many years. Now that I’ve woken up from it, I realize that I should feel sorry for myself. I’ll only live for myself from now on.”"So are you kicking me out of your life? Is that what you mean?” Jay's voice was cold.Angeline paused for a long time."Yes," after a long time, she replied sharply.Jay closed his eyes in pain. At that
