After Angeline rushed over and arrived at Grand Asia Hospital, she could hear Sera Severe’s despondent wailing from the hallways.Jack sat in the waiting room, sullenly smoking.The madam accompanied Sera by her side. She held her hand, her own eyes red from all that sobbing.“Sera, everything will be fine. You have to be strong.” Madam consoled her over and over.Angeline ran out of the elevator, and the madam rushed toward her as soon as she saw her. She grabbed her hand and said urgently, “Miss Severe, you came just in time. Hurry and help Sera with her signature.”Angeline glanced over to Sera who was lying on a mobile sickbed. How could someone who had so much pride cry like it was nobody’s business?Her hate for Sera was washed away by pity. She walked over to her and said, “Giving birth to a child is painful. You’ll have to hang in there.”Sera looked at her with resentment. “Where’s my mom? Why isn’t she here?”“Aunty Connors is in the hospital keeping my dad company.”
Jay did not urge her further. Instead, his sharp eyes were fixated on her face. Angeline had become skinnier, and her features looked more intricate, especially those eyes of hers. They were bigger and brighter than before.When he thought of how a charming person like her could be with another man, a cold aura emanated from his body and surrounded him.“Angeline Severe, you have to understand that this is not a matter of whether you sign the agreement or not. Instead, it’s whether I decide to sign it or not.”Angeline suddenly came to a realization. Sera was in labor right now and was in an emergency. She then ignored all of her doubts and thoughts in her mind, promptly signing the papers. She then gave the agreement over to Jay. To her surprise, he just stared at her with those glowing eyes of his. He had no intention of signing those papers at all.“What do you want so that you can let her go?” Angeline asked with a despondent look on her face.Jay asked her back coldly, “I
On Jay’s handsome face was a lifeless expression. “Break up with him.” He threatened her.Angeline also wished to cut ties with Cole. However, that runt was more clingy than good velcro.“I can’t,” she said calmly.When they got together, it was always Cole who took the initiative.When those words reached Jay’s ears, it seemed like it was hard for her to pull herself away from Cole.“Is it really that hard, breaking up with him?” Jay gritted his teeth, a murderous aura seeping from within him.Angeline had no words.Jay was enraged by her silence, and his teeth ground together. “Angeline Severe, don’t forget that we’re not divorced just yet. This is cheating. Since you dare betray me, you’d better believe that I will–”Angeline steeled herself, and her dark eyes welled with tears as she looked at him with dissatisfaction.Jay’s sentence was left hanging in the air.Even if she betrayed him, what could he do?“You’ve reminded me of something. I’m not sure as to when you’re f
Jay had a righteous look on his face. “I was just giving you what you deserved. I was just giving you a kind reminder to be mindful of your words and the things you do.”He paused for a while, and his eyes became colder. “In any case that you do this again, it’ll not just be a simple reminder the next time.”Angeline let out a cold laugh. “What do you want to do to me?”Jay stared into her eyes. What could he do to her? Other than to keep her bound to his side, what else could he do?“I will make him disappear from the face of the earth.” Jay could not touch her, so he could only exterminate Cole Yorks.Angeline suddenly let out a laugh. She laughed at how similar the both of them were in person. Just a little provocation and they would make someone vanish someone from the face of the earth as if they were the overlord of this world.If they really had been going at each other’s throats, she would be more than happy to witness that brutal fight.“Do whatever you want.” Angeline
Jay hated Jack with every single fragment of his soul.He took all of Angeline’s suffering and unleashed them onto Jack.It was at this moment that flashes from cameras bedazzled the scene. Many journalists came clambering from the stairs and circled around Jack. They interviewed him, “Old Master Ares, is Sera carrying your child?”“Old Master Ares, Imperial Capital has passed the law that forbids polygamy. So, will you be divorcing your first wife and marrying the young and beautiful Miss Sera Severe?”“Old Master Ares, you’ve just obtained control of Ares Enterprises. If there’s a scandal about you, aren’t you afraid of your public relations being diminished and that it would bring harm and losses to your company?”The questions posed by the journalists were suffocating, and they put Jack between a rock and a hard place. He found it hard to respond.Jack finally realized that he had been trapped by Jay. From Sera’s sudden contractions to the absence of the obstetrician in the T
A beautiful, cold smile formed across Jay’s face. “I’ll use my own means to get the things that I want. Between you and I, there’ll be no trade.”Jack replied, “What about the integrated circuit? Don’t you want that?”Jay said, “Your offer is very tempting. But I still insist, between you and I, there’ll be no trade.”Angeline looked at the adamant Jay Ares, and her heart ached like it was being brutalized by a savage cat.Her heart ached for him.Jay was always one who put relationships first and foremost. Now, he suddenly became as cold as ice. He would savagely forgo his relationship with family, so whatever reason it was that made him do that must have been crushing and cruelly painful. When Finn wheeled Jay past Angeline, he suddenly put his hands on his stomach and collapsed into a squatting position…“What’s wrong with you?”“Mr. President, my stomach hurts all of sudden.” Finn’s face was pale, and beads of sweat rolled down his face.Jay glanced at Finn’s eyes–They lo
It was a cold atmosphere between Angeline and Jay.Jay was afraid that he would accidentally let her know his feelings if he talked too much.Angeline dared not speak at all for fear of offending this aristocrat who had a short fuse.In the end, Angeline broke the silence between them. She said with sorrow, “I’m sorry. In the two years that I was gone, you must’ve been through a lot, yet I’m unable to be by your side as your wife.”Jay’s deep gaze fell onto Angeline’s regretful face. Actually, he should be the one saying sorry. If it were not for him who upset her, how could her dirty scandal be twisted and spread by the Ares family?She was supposed to be the mistress of the Severe family who was proudly put on a pedestal. She was not supposed to be the poor girl who lost her life in a car accident, the one who was disfigured, forced to jump off a building, and then abandoned by her husband.His sexy neck rumbled. The word ‘Angeline’ was stuck in his throat. It was the name wh
All of a sudden, a large group of people swarmed in from around the Hummer and attacked Angeline.Jay’s heart leaped up to his throat.Angeline quickly shut the door to protect Jay. Then, she walked forward and faced off against the group with her bare hands.Finn rushed forward and assisted Angeline in combating these unknown ruffians.They were trained fighters, and their skills were nothing to scoff at.Angeline was confused. Did these people come after her or Jay?“Finn, who are these people?”“I don’t know.”Jay locked his gaze onto Angeline. He did not expect Angeline’s skills to have recovered that quickly. However, Angeline was always that fragile little girl in his heart.He was afraid that she might be in danger, thus he rolled down the window and removed a few darts from the hidden compartment in the wheelchair. He held them in between his fingers.The attackers who closed in on Angeline were fatally hit by the flying darts.Angeline shuddered as she watched her a
