All Chapters of Sir Ares, Goodnight!: Chapter 231 - Chapter 240

Back at the house, after Jay placed the four grocery bags away, he took out the fingerprint lock, found a toolbox, and deftly dismantled the brass lock on the door. Rose was shocked beyond belief and quickly stopped him. "This is Sean's house, Sir Ares. Can you not wreck it without his permission?" Jay's hands did not stop moving. "Brass locks aren't as secure as fingerprint locks," he said candidly. "Why aren't brass locks secure?" Rose was baffled. Jay stared at her and spat out a few words. "It's not the lock, it's the landlord." Rose laughed. She thought that he was worried about the safety of the children. "Well then, have you ever seen a human trafficker as gentlemanly and rich as Mr. Bell?" Jay threw the tool in his hand on the floor and glared at her unhappily. "Then, have you seen a human trafficker as handsome and rich as me?" 'Um… 'Does he still remember that I asked the kids to call him a human trafficker?' Jay glared at Rose's embarrassed face and said,

Eventually, Rose could not keep her eyes open and fell asleep. Jay heard her steady breathing and opened his eyes. He turned his body to his side and looked at her sleeping face. Her appearance was starkly different, but the resemblance to Angeline was undeniable. He had never looked at her straight in the face, perhaps because her appearance was not the same, much less tried to understand her since seven years ago, when she had given up her all to marry him. They could have spent their time happily together, but he had squandered it all. He had hurt her deeply, and she had learned how to hide her scars. Jay lifted her hand and gently touched Rose's cheek. The woman he hurt the most was the woman he loved the most. He hugged her close to his body, allowing his solitude over the years to be washed away by the bliss of her presence. With her and the children, what more could he ask for? If he had a regret, that would be the daughter that she bore while married to anot

"Are you serious?" Rose stared at Jay. 'Does this guy think that Grand Asia can do anything they want in the Imperial Capital?' Jay nodded seriously. Rose was helpless. "Sir Ares, this is Sean's house. I am only a tenant, and you are only my son's daddy and a mere visitor. What right do you have to dictate any changes to this house?" Jay glared at Rose resentfully. Since when had she become so detached? Rose realized to whom she was talking when she saw his gaze turn dangerous. She sheathed her fangs and squeezed a flattering smile on her face. Jay flipped over the blanket and got out of the bed. His handsome face maintained that unpleasant expression. Rose was helpless against his ever-changing mood. All she could do was to humble herself to suit his whims. "Alright, I don't have any objections if you want to renovate the house, but I hope that you can obtain Sean's permission first." As Jay stood in front of the washing basin, hearing Rose's compromising tone of voi

After ending Jay's call, Sean pressed his hand against his forehead. Nancy casually stepped into the office on her high heels. Sean lifted his head lazily and looked at his sister from another mother. "I've heard that share prices have reached the limit down?" Nancy crossed her arms in front of her as she arrived in front of Sean's office table. Sean straightened his back and nodded at her. The corners of Nancy's lips curled upward mockingly. "That's a bold first move for our new company president, my elder brother." Sean glared at Nancy coldly. "I've heard that you have been pestering Mr. Ares incessantly over the past few years?" Nancy's overbearing expression took a sinister turn. "That's none of your business," she huffed. Sean smiled when he saw that she was angry. "Don't you know? Mr. Ares bought Cloudy Dreams from me earlier. Do you know the reason behind that?" Nancy was surprised. "Why did Mr. Ares buy Cloudy Dreams? Isn't it just a normal four-room house? Isn'

The clock on the wall continued ticking. It was almost time to pick up the kids from the kindergarten. Jay glanced at Rose who was slumped on the couch. He quietly stood up and walked toward the door. "I'll pick up the kids." Rose looked at him with extreme gratitude. "Thank you so much!" She did not feel like moving for the rest of the day. She received a call from Sean not long after Jay left. "Are you free now, Rose? I'd like to talk to you." Rose walked toward the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room. She pulled the blinds away and saw Sean's Ferrari outside, parked next to the road. "Alright, I'll come now," Rose ended the call and went briefly lost in thought. She had her reasons for getting close to Sean. Her conscience made her uneasy. The furniture installer was done with assembling the bed. He politely said goodbye to Rose. "The bed is ready, Miss. If you have any other problems with it, you can call the customer service number." "I'll send you out."
