“Jens, who taught you this?” George figured there must be someone highly experienced who taught him such accurate and professional estimations.Jenson looked at him with disdain. “Why would anyone need to teach me this? Anyone with a brain would be able to tell.”George looked awkward.Anne was scheming maliciously. This house was under Lady Severe’s name and did not belong to her anyway. If she could sell this place, then she would be able to get some of the money.“Well, 30 billion then. We’re a family anyway. We’ll just sell this at a loss.” Anne was happy. The price Jenson gave out was a few billion more than the market price.Cole was very impressed by Jenson’s negotiating skills.Even though Jenson was always cold to him, it did not stop him from being fond of him. “Jens, give Daddy a price. Daddy will treat you to a meal later.”This time, Jenson did not become enraged. On the other hand, he shifted his gaze of schadenfreude to his daddyHe even wanted to be his stepfath
Cole said with his face filled with despise, “Print money? If that’s the case, the money would come so slowly!”When he said that, everyone in the house looked at him as if he was a god.This guy was looking down on money-printing factories. What mad man was this?Jay said ominously, “Are you guys spending money like it’s false paper money burned as an offering to the dead?”Angeline burst into laughter.Jay had such a smart mouth. He could always infuriate someone so much.Cole was not mad. On the other hand, he started laughing. “You ignorant fool.”Those three words slapped Jay across the face heavily.Anne did not care about the argument going on between the two of them. She only wanted the money for the house. “Master Ares, since you’re willing to take out 500 billion for the house, then when can we get the money?”Angeline was afraid that Jay was only arguing the price of the house with Cole because his competitiveness was triggered. She was worried that he would not be
Finn pushed Jay and left.Cole and Carson walked out as well. They saw Angeline watching Jay leaving stupidly. Then, Cole said with jealousy, “Angeline, I’m leaving now.”Angeline only replied briefly, “Okay.”Cole felt that there were such big differences in their treatments. Hence, he walked away with a dark expression on his face.Jenson then called Grayson.After Grayson picked up the call, he said happily, “Little Young Master, why’d you think about me all of a sudden? I’m so happy!”Jenson said coldly, “Stop with the nonsense.”Grayson started coughing when he heard this.Why was this child behaving more and more like his president?“Yes, yes, yes. What do you need, Little Young Master?” Grayson asked while kissing up to him.Jenson said, “I want to buy Severe Manor in Swallow City. Take care of it for me now.”His commanding tone was no different than that of Jay’s.Grayson hesitated and said, “Your father’s interested in the villa on Apple Street and you’re interest
When Baby Zetty saw that Anne was not moving, she said, “Grandma Connors, you’re the person who rushed to sell this house and now you’re the person who’s refusing to leave. Do you think you can stay here forever even if we sold the house? How would there be such good things in this world? Even if there are, it won’t happen to a scheming and calculating person like you because there’s a saying that says success will only happen to people who work hard.”Anne’s face turned dark.She had plotted to sell Severe Manor for so long, but ultimately, she would not even be getting a share of the money. How could she leave just like that?Anne’s calculating eyes landed on George. “Master, since the house is sold for 50 billion, then you should share some of the money with us since there’s so much money, right?”Sera and Seth were delighted. They looked at George expectantly.George said, “Of course, you guys will have some of the money.”Angeline looked at her mother. Lady Severe’s lips par
After a long while, Sera bawled all of a sudden. “Mom, everyone said that you have to value all of your children equally. Now, I finally realize that you’ll only value one of your children and abandon the other. You should just keep the 100 million for when you’re old.”Sera covered her face and ran out.Anne was in shock.“I-I’ll give you more. Why are you running?”Anne turned around and told Seth, “Seth, get me your sister now.”“Okay.” Seth ran after her as well.Anne and her daughter had suddenly gotten into such a horrible fight, so she started to feel embarrassed. She went upstairs to rest with a dark face.Baby Zetty called out after her, “Grandma Connors, it’s your turn to make dinner today.”Anne froze on the stairs and hesitated. Then, she said, “I’m not eating.” After that, she walked upstairs while twisting her hips.Lady Severe looked at Master Severe with a helpless look on her face. She asked profoundly, “Are you happy now?”Master Severe was stunned. He was u
Sera’s eyes were red and she could not stop crying.Angeline wanted to give her some tissues.However, Sera glared at her with her blood-shot eyes and said angrily, “Don’t try to be such a saint, Angeline. I won’t be grateful to you. On the contrary, I feel disgusted.“I was always jealous of you ever since I was younger. Why does everyone like you? Now, I finally know. You’re just fortunate to get involved with a reputable young master like Jay, and that’s why the Severes changed their minds about you.”There was a smirk on Sera’s face. She looked like she was venting her anger. “I feel sorry for you now because Jay doesn’t love you anymore. You finally know what it's like to be looked down on like me.“Hehe, I was stupid back then. I tried so hard to get recognition from this family. Now, I finally understand. In this world, no love comes from nowhere. If you want them to value you, you have to stand taller than them.”After she said that, she had an ominous glint in her eyes a
Anne pouted. She said awkwardly, “Sera, I know you’re ambitious and no worse than boys, but you should know that your brother has the duty of reviving the Severes on his shoulder, so I should give him more money. It’s not for his personal use. You should empathize with me.”Sera scoffed. “Don’t try to find an excuse for your biasness. Have you not sided with him enough ever since he was younger? Every time he made a mistake, you’ll surely blame it on me. Hehe, Mom, don’t worry. I don’t need your money anymore. One day, I’ll make you see that your son can’t even compare to me.”Anne’s face was as grey as ash.Sera opened the door and immediately, four servants came forward to help her with her suitcases.The window of that domineering-looking Lincoln rolled down and Jack was sitting in the passenger seat.It was such an obvious sign. Sera was willing to become Jack’s second wife.George almost passed out from anger. He ran over and roared. “Jack Ares, why are you here?”Jack look
Sera cried and said, “Dad, please forgive me. I don’t want to live this kind of petty life anymore. I can’t find my place here in this family. It’s okay if you don’t want me. From now on, I’ll be living for myself.”Jack ordered the driver. “Drive.”The luxurious car brought Sera away.Anne was wailing loudly. “My daughter, how can you be so cruel?”George scolded Anne. “How dare you cry? Weren’t you the one who did this?”Anne started sobbing shamefully.When they got into the house, Old Master Severe had already come downstairs. He was sitting on the sofa with a grim look on his face.“Are you happy now that it has come to this?” Old Master Severe questioned angrily.No one dared to say anything.Old Master Severe said, “I’m old and don’t have much time. You sold this house and spent all of the Severe family’s assets. That’s good, I guess. I won’t have anything to worry about when I go into the coffin.”George lowered his head in shame. “Dad, it’s all my fault.”Old Master
“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
