In the early morning of the next day, Angeline slept until noon before opening her eyes slowly. The unfamiliar environment reminded her immediately that she had been kidnapped by Jay.However, the handcuffs on her hand had been undone. Angeline sat up in shock. Had Jay freed her?She jumped out of the bed and walked out the door quietly while still barefooted.The living room outside the bedroom was empty. The lights in the room were very dim, so Angeline could not see where the exit was. She stood in a daze in the middle of the living room.At this time, she heard a voice coming from downstairs. "Parcel!"Then, Finn cried out in surprise, "My God! Is the president going to open a shop selling baby items?"Angeline felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Was she really pregnant? Did Jay buy maternity and baby products for her as well?She shook her head and lamented. This guy would not be so kind.“You’re awake.” Jay’s cold voice came from behind her.Angeline felt like s
Jay went to the fridge to get her a pack of probiotic powder. He put it in a glass of warm water and went back to her.“Drink this.”Angeline drank the probiotic and said apologetically, “I’m sorry, Sir Ares. It’s difficult for you to get about but I still created so much trouble for you.”Jay was speechless. He replied flatly, “It’s fine.”Angeline said with even more sincerity. “All four of my limbs are fine, but I asked a crippled man to serve me. I feel so very apologetic.”Jay, “...”“My hands are fine,” he said in frustration.Angeline heard him grinding his teeth before finally realizing she had said the wrong things. “I didn’t mean that. I was just saying how your legs aren’t working—”Jay’s face turned icy.What could hurt more than the love of your life pouring salt on your wounds?Angeline shut up and bit her tongue.She would say the wrong things when she was nervous.After breakfast, the servants came in to clear the table.Angeline had eaten too much and did
Jay was extremely uncomfortable after he saw her with such an intense stare. Then, she sat down while feeling guilty.Jay announced domineeringly, “It’s decided then.”After that, he rolled his wheelchair away.Angeline howled angrily, “Ah!”As she released her anger this way, she tugged on her vocal cords and caused her throat to feel uncomfortable. Then, she felt nauseous again.Jay saw her covering her mouth and running past him to the toilet. After that, he heard her vomiting non-stop.She stayed there for a long time.He was getting worried as he sat in his wheelchair.Looking at her suffering, he started feeling remorseful for asking her to give birth to the child.When it was near noon, Angeline finally dragged her exhausted and dehydrated body out from the toilet. She climbed into bed weakly and without strength.Jay fetched her a glass of lemonade. “Do you want this?”Angeline lay in bed, and her head was buried in the pillow. When she heard his voice, she lifted he
Angeline picked up a cherry. As she was eating it, she complained while tearing, "It's cruel and inhumane. How could you do this to a pregnant woman?" Jay asked her, "Didn’t you refrain from eating and drinking when you were pregnant with Jens and the others?" Angeline said, “I had to escape your pursuit then. I was squatting in the rented room and never knew when my next meal was. I was very nervous then, and since my energy was always shifting, my morning sickness was not so severe." Jay was so ashamed that he could not show his face. Angeline, however, missed that time very much. "It wasn’t like how it is now, being imprisoned by you and being forced to eat. You only care for the small issues and ignore the big ones."She choked up as she spoke. Jay, "..."It was obvious that she was the only one in his heart. He was forcing her to eat because he did not want her to become too thin."I'm going out this afternoon. Tell the maid what you want to eat. Don't star
"Where does the retiree live?" Jay asked.Grayson said, "In a farmhouse in the southern suburbs of the city." "Take me there right away." "Yes." Grayson drove Jay and Finn to the outskirts. On the road, Jay kept feeling his heart beating so violently. Rarely did he feel as tense as this. "Grayson, speed up." Jay urged. Grayson drove the car at the maximum speed, leaving with a roar. Soon, the black tiled roof of a farmhouse came into view. As the Rolls-Royce was parked in front of the farmhouse, rows of golden corn angled under the eaves of the roof could be seen in their field of vision. There was a young woman with a round face, a bloated body, and a slightly bulging belly gathering corn on her toes.Jay saw the red-faced pregnant woman, and his eagle eyes narrowed slightly. After Grayson and Finn had gotten out of the car, Jay was still watching the young woman. He seemed to be lost in thought.“President Ares,” Finn opened his car door and call
The old lady seemed to have recalled some scary scenes. There was fear in her eyes, and her entire body trembled terribly. “Miss Chloe… killed the Old Madam.”Jay’s whole body quivered.If he had not heard it himself, he could never believe that his beautiful and gentle mother would… viciously harm his grandma who he had never met.The old lady revealed some shocking information intermittently. “Old Master wanted to kill Miss Chloe in a fit of rage, but Miss Chloe… She was a demon reincarnate… I was afraid that she’d hurt the old master, so I drugged her… but I took the wrong drug…”“I’m sorry, Young Master. It was entirely my fault…”Noah saw that his mother was shaken and quickly stopped Jay. “Mister, please don’t ask my mother any more questions. Her body’s in a very bad condition, can you spare her?”Jay looked at the withered old lady and nodded. “Okay.”He could almost guess what happened in the rest of the story.His grandfather and mother’s one-night stand turned out no
“Your sales plan, is it to sell to the working masses who are suffering?”Angeline, “…”“Shouldn’t this plan be showcased to us big shots who hold the power over the life or death of Severe Enterprise?” Jay asked as if it was no big deal.Angeline was speechless.Jay glanced at her indifferently. Seeing her frowning in frustration, he once again realized that his desire to win was too much.Thus, he was stung by his conscience and changed the topic of conversation. “I heard you were looking for the exit during the day?”He was also afraid that she would be too bored.Angeline wanted to escape during the day, but she had changed her mind. The reason why she wanted to get out was only to promote the Severe family’s products.Instead of running around begging others for help, it was better for her to serve this bankroller here… She would pester Jay every day by enthusiastically recommending Severe Enterprise’s products. Once he was fed up with her, he would either let her out or a
Jay looked at her angry face. He retrieved the diet notes and looked at them carefully.Uh, even he thought that this portion was a little big. After all, a large person like him could not even eat this much…Angeline said furiously, “Anyway, I won’t eat this much.”She put on a tragic and desperate expression.Seeing this, Jay could only compromise. “Eat your breakfast first.”Angeline looked at the soy milk in his hand. “I wanna drink soy milk.”“I already drank it,” he said.“Didn’t we kiss many times before? I don’t mind,” Angeline said.Jay, “…”Jay pushed his glass of soy milk to her while Angeline handed him the goat’s milk.Angeline kept thinking about reporting her plan to him. As such, she quickly finished the soy milk in one gulp. Then, she said to Jay with a sincere expression, “Sir Ares, can I report my plan to you now?”Jay glanced at the untouched steak on her plate with a dark expression.“We’ll talk after breakfast.”Angeline was exasperated.She then sho
“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
