The woman dove straight into Jay’s arms with a coquettish proclamation, “I missed you, Jay.” To which Jay cupped her cheek and replied lovingly with mirth in his eyes, “What took you so long?” Angeline was stricken by his gentleness with her, such gentleness that once belonged to her and only her. Yet right then, he was giving it to this woman in front of her instead. Angeline’s eyes blurred as she stood dazedly in place. After a passionate round of hugging with Jay did the woman finally acknowledge Angeline. The tall woman walked over to Angeline. Her enchanting figure coupled with the energetic spirit in her eyes crushed Angeline’s short-statured presence. “Is this chick your little ex-girlfriend, Jay?” Jay nodded. “Yeah.” “Other than her face, I don’t see much else of her that’s of appeal.” Angeline’s emotions jumped between anger and humiliation. It was just that the boxy clothing she wore happened to hide her figure. “What interesting taste you used to have
Angeline clenched her fists and kicked down the cubicle doors, shocking the girls inside to hug each other in fear. “Who are you?” Angeline replied, infuriated, “I’m Lil Josie’s elder sister.” The woman by the name of Elsa scoffed and went back to being arrogant. “You’re Josie’s sister? And here I thought you were some big shot. What, are you angry that I slapped your sister? Then tell the director. Ask him to change the script too if you think you’re so great.” Angeline took a menacing step closer. “I may not have the ability to have the director change the script, but I can make sure you won’t be a female lead anymore.” At that, Angeline’s fist met Elsa’s face. “Ah! How dare you hit me? Do you have any idea who I am?” Elsa tried her best to shield her face. Her good friends had already escaped off to watch by the sidelines, afraid that Angeline’s fist would hit them too. After all, appearances mattered a lot in this line of business.Elsa’s close friends quickly went to re
The director pointed at Angeline. “It’s her. Please be careful. She can fight.” Jean trailed his gaze along the director’s hand, and it fell on Angeline.Seeing Angeline and Josie, Jean immediately approached them with excitement. “Hey, ladies, what are two of you beauties doing here?” Taking into consideration Josephine's dignity, Angeline quickly reminded him with a whisper, “Don’t expose our identities.” Jean halted in confusion. “Understood.” “That director and the female lead over there bullied my sister, Josie. Do what you deem is best,” Angeline said.Jean’s expression immediately darkened. He turned around and sent a kick at the insignificant director’s abdomen. “Do you know who she is? How could you just bully her when you don’t know anything?” The director immediately got on his knees and begged, “I’m sorry, Master Jean. I must be blind. It won’t happen again.” Seeing the scene take a 180 from what was in her favor, Elsa realized that she had made a grave mist
Sharing a look with Angeline, Josephine piped up, “It must be my brother fetching you.” Angeline felt it too good to be true, especially with the news of Jay’s new girlfriend this morning. The idea of him changing his mind so quickly did not sit right with her. Josephine, however, pushed Angeline into the sports car. “Go! I knew my brother still loved you.” Angeline did not let go of Josephine’s hand. “Something feels off about this, Josie.” Josephine replied, “I’m pretty sure you’re just anxious. Fine, I’ll come with you.” Just like that, the two innocent misuses got into the stranger’s sports car that began to drive toward the direction of Garden Of A Diary. Josephine spoke, “See, Sis Angeline? He must be fetching you back to Garden Of A Diary.”Angeline found her previous worry dissipate as the car drove toward there. Soon, the duo felt the tell-tale signs of drowsiness and fell deeply asleep on each other’s shoulders. The sports car drove past Garden Of A Diary and
Josephine decided to provoke him. “Then I suppose you’ll allow me to call him?”Carson took his phone from his pocket and handed it to her. “Go ahead.” Josephine’s finger trembled as she dialed Jay’s number with difficulty. Josephine began to ramble as the call connected. “You have to come quickly, Jay, before Big Sis gets taken advantage of! We’ve been abducted and they want to have their way with Big Sis. You have to come quick and save Big Sis, Jay.” On the other end of the line, Jay found himself catching on to the danger of the situation from her moment of panic. “Where are you?” His tone was cold and thirsty for blood. It also revealed hints of unconcealable anxiety. “I don’t know.” Carson took his phone back and turned it off. “I’m sure Jay Ares will be able to find out your location if he truly is as magnificent as they say,” Carson stated. Josephine glared at Carson. “You’re all monsters.” Carson smiled. “Allow me to prepare. I’ve got to give your brother a
Jay could almost imagine the racy scene happening inside the room. Clenching his jaw, he turned to Finn. “I want him castrated.” Finn replied, “Aye.”With a wave of Carson’s hand, a group of guards immediately surrounded Finn and Jay. “I won’t let you go in.” Carson smiled wretchedly. Jay spoke to Finn in a sinister tone, “I can deal with these useless nobodies.” “Understood.” With the speed of a leopard, Finn jumped over the people and landed outside the circle with a flip. Carson stared at Finn who was currently scaling the walls. “Not bad.” Then, he picked up a rock-climbing instrument and chased after Finn Gallagher. The rest of the men surrounded Jay as their eyes fell on his legs. Internally, they shared the same thought. How could this crippled man call them useless nobodies? He must have quite a few tricks up his sleeves if he could make such an arrogant claim. However, they won in numbers and therefore bore no fear for Jay Ares. The few leaders shared a look a
“Why are you here?” Angeline asked in shock. Finn stared at the half-naked Cole Yorks and smiled sinisterly. “As per the president’s order, I’m to castrate this b*stard.”Cole frowned. “What about my men?” Finn replied, “The president’s defeated them all.”Cole was astonished. “How skilled is this crippled man?” Angeline threw a pillow at Cole with an angry growl. “Don’t call him a crippled man.” Cole tugged the pillow off and commented despondently, “Why are you like this? He dumps you and you’re still defending him?” Angeline fired back, “It’s none of your business.” Knowing that Jay Ares was downstairs, Angeline immediately lunged at the door and ran downstairs.Angeline stood in front of him as Jay wheeled himself into the main doors of the villa. “Why are you here?” Angeline’s tone beamed with barely concealed joy. Jay raked his sharp eagle-like eyes over her, leaving no detail behind. The frost in his eyes that threatened to swallow her whole was beyond horrify
He felt his world break apart the moment Angeline hit the floor. It was as if the world was ending and he was living on borrowed time. That was the first time he had ever tasted fear. For that short second, his brain ran wild, fleeting from one thought to another. He even prayed to God and was willing to venture into the nine circles of Hell if it meant that she would make it out of this alive. He had never expected such a fearless evildoer as he to finally be afraid of something. Carson staggered into the house after the effects of the anesthetic wore off. He found himself slightly stunned at the sight of the young master sitting so despondently. “Jay Ares and Finn Gallagher are rather strong, Young Master. They’re not to be underestimated.” “I know.” Having fought with Finn, Cole had concluded that it would be difficult to crown a winner within a hundred moves should the two fight with their bare fists. Carson consoled, saying, “It’s alright, Young Master. It’s hardly th
“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
