Ch. 1181..1190

Chapter 1181

After sensing the love and concern from her child and hearing Jens' whisper, tears welled up in Angeline's eyes.

"Oh, Jens."

"I'm taking you home, Mommy!"

Jenson took Angeline's hand, then carried Angeline on his back before walking outside.

The shareholders' meeting was over.

As the participants left the scene in succession, Sera slumped to the ground like a leaf falling in the bleak autumn breeze.

At the thought that Steven, her backing, had been mercilessly thrown into prison by Jenson, Sera felt like her world had collapsed.

Ultimately, Sera thought of her mother-the Ares family's Madam Ares. She clambered to her feet in distress and rushed home as quickly as she could.

Both Madam Ares and Anne were best friends initially. Both of them had also joined Bell Enterprise now. They thought that once Bell Enterprise regained its glorious position after Angeline was forced to step down, they would be able to bask in Bell Enterprise's glory as well.

However, when they saw Sera rush home while looking crestfallen and despondent, their hearts sank.

"Dad got locked up, Mom. Please beg Master Ares to release Dad." Sera held Madam Ares' hand and begged anxiously.

After hearing what she said, Madam Ares' charming and graceful body seemingly aged ten years in a flash.

She shuddered and asked in disbelief, "How could this be? Didn't Steven say that he's confident that it'll work this time?"

Sera replied, "We were confident at first. Angeline was indeed paralyzed and we had Jay on a string. But who would've thought that Jenson would pop out of nowhere so suddenly?"

Sera regretted her mistake. "I've overlooked it. I thought Jenson posed no threat as he's nothing but a child with autism. Yet who would have thought that he would be so eloquent when he spoke? What's more terrifying than that is that Jenson possesses superb hacking skills."

Madam Ares murmured with a dull expression, "You want me to go and beg Jay? How could I possibly have the gall to go back and ask him for help?"

Sera said, "You're his foster mother! Although Master Ares is a reticent man, he's also very affectionate.

Mom, if you beg him to forgive Dad, then I'm sure he'll agree."

Madam Ares hesitated. "I'll be humiliated to death if I go back."

Sera said, "You love Dad, don't you, Mom? Why does it matter if you suffer a bit of grievance for Dad's sake? Just think about it, if Dad isn't released, then this will be the end of Bell Enterprise. Our lives will be completely over."

Anne could get the gist of the story by listening to Sera and Madam Ares' conversation.

Dumbstruck, she said bitterly and sarcastically, "Oh m y. Sera, you're truly a jinx. Any family you go to will be down on their luck. The Ares family was doomed because of you, Angeline from the Severe family got ill because of you, and now even the Bell family is bankrupt because of you. Are you an ill omen?"

Eager to defend her daughter, Madam Ares scolded Anne, "How can you say that to our daughter, Anne?"

Anne wept. "Did I say anything wrong? It's all your fault. You're the one who gave me this cursed child and that's why I'm having such a rough life. Where am I supposed to go now that I've severed ties with the Severe family?"

Sera was hit hard by Anne's words. She slumped dejectedly on the ground, crying and muttering," You're right, I am a jinx. Why are you still following me then? You should all leave!"

Madam Ares felt sorry for Sera and hugged her, saying, "You are not a jinx, Sera. You must pull

yourself together. I promise that I'll beg Jay to let your Dad go. As long as your dad can come out alive, you'll be Bell Enterprise's daughter. Don't give up on yourself yet."

It was as if she had seen a beam of light in the dark. Sera said, "Let's go right now, Mom."

Madam Ares nodded. "Mm."

Ryleigh Hospital.

Under the influence of strong sedatives, Jay had fallen into a deep sleep.

When Sera brought Madam Ares to Jay's ward, Madam Ares grew uneasy when she saw Jay's mesmerizing face frowning in agony.

"What should I say to him later, Sera?"

Sera said, "Just admit your mistakes, Mom. Keep begging him. if Master Ares refuses to forgive you, then you will kneel on the ground. As long as you're sincere enough, I'm sure you will touch his heart." Madam Ares nodded nervously.

Jay had a long dream.

In his dream, death had parted him and his beloved Angeline several times. The pain of it tore his heart to shreds. Then, under the agony of being dismembered into a thousand pieces, he broke through the confinement of the sedatives and bolted upright in bed suddenly. He let out a startling roar like a male lion that had been hibernating for a thousand years." Angeline!"

He was now sitting upright with scarlet eyes, his hands clenched into fists. The blue veins on the back o

f his hands were bulging.

Sera and Madam Ares cowered at the sight of Jay's ferociousness.

Madam Ares said in a trembling voice, "You're awake, my child?"

Jay raised his eyelids, the redness in his pupils gradually fading away. It was now replaced by a block of ice so thick that it was impossible to melt.

"What are you doing here?" he asked in a deep voice.

His voice carried the intimidating power of a king who could manipulate the life and death of all insects.

Madam Ares' knees were shaking and her voice sounded tearful. "Jay, I'm here today to beg you to spare Bell Enterprise."

Jay narrowed his eagle eyes. "What happened to Bell Enterprise?"

He was curious to find out how Angeline had dealt with the bunch of hungry wolves at the shareholders' meeting today. He feared that the soft and fragile Angeline could not handle it.

Madam Ares complained tearfully, saying, "In the shareholders' meeting today, Grand Asia completely swallowed up Bell Enterprise which they acquired three years ago. What's more, they even locked up all o f Bell Enterprise's shareholder representatives. Jay, I know that the business world is just like a battlefield and the winner takes all. But I beg you, will you please spare him this once seeing that he's Sera's father?"

Jay simply asked, "How's my Angeline doing?"

When he mentioned Angeline's name, the iceberg in his eyes looked as though it was being scorched by a hot sun. The look on his face was gentle and indulgent, even his ice-wrapped voice had turned inexplicably soft.

Madam Ares looked at Sera. She was not at the meeting today, so she had no idea how to answer this question.

After thinking for a while, a touch of jealousy rose in Sera's heart. As if trying to kill off Jay's unyielding love for Angeline, Sera answered honestly, "She's now fully paralyzed. Her five senses no longer work. She's no different than a useless piece of trash."

Every word she said was like a sharp knife twisting and piercing Jay's heart.

"What did you say?"

His huge and long legs touched the ground. Suddenly, he kicked Sera's leg and a crack was heard. With that, Sera's leg was broken.

Jay said furiously, "Tell me, Sera. Who's the useless piece of trash now?"

Chapter 1183

Chapter 1183

When Sera's right leg broke, she staggered and fell to the ground. Her face had contorted from the intense pain. She looked at Jay with unwillingness in her eyes.

The ruthless and merciless man was back.

Madam Ares stared at Sera with horror in her eyes, her entire body shaking violently.

"Sera, Sera..."

Perhaps the sight of the miserable state her daughter was in had aroused the motherly love in her, prompting her to roar at Jay. "How could you do this to her, Jay? For Christ's sake, I raised you for so many years and this is how you repay me? By hurting my daughter?"

Jay cast his sharp and icy gaze at Madam Ares, then squeezed her throat with his pliers-like hands. "You're not worthy to be a mother. You took advantage of my amnesia and used me to hurt Angeline. Even after you die 10,000 times over and over again, it still won't be enough to dispel the hatred in my heart."

Madam Ares looked at Jay's stern and ruthless yet mesmerizing face, then it dawned on her...

From the moment she offended Angeline, she had wholly and completely severed their mother-and-son

ties.

"Jay, Angeline is sick, you should go and see her..." Madam Ares showed resourcefulness at this crucial moment, her sudden kindness turning into a lifesaving straw.

Jay pushed Madam Ares away furiously, smoothed out his clothes, and left like a tornado.

Madam Ares touched her neck and felt the five blazing fingerprints on her neck. She felt like she had been a hairbreadth away from death earlier.

Jay was so close to killing her.

At this moment, Madam Ares finally realized where she stood in Jay's heart. She was nothing compared to Angeline.

Sera curled up on the ground like a puppy, her expression bleak and in despair.

Madam Ares tried her best to pick her up, consoling her constantly. "Don't be afraid, Sera. I'll call a doctor now. This is Bell Enterprise's hospital. They will definitely find a way to treat your leg." Sera suddenly took Madam Ares' hand and pleaded piteously with tears in her eyes. "Mom, go and beg Old Master Jack. You haven't divorced yet, so legally, you're still husband and wife. Old Master Jack might help us because you're his wife."

A look of astonishment emerged on Madam Ares's aging face. "Sera, you've seen how Jay reacts and

you're asking me to go and beg Jack for help? Do you know that from the moment I betrayed Jack, there's no longer love between us as husband and wife but endless hatred instead? If I go back, I'll be dead for sure."

Sera wailed. "I know you love me, Mom. Please try for my sake. If you don't go, then what's the point of me living anymore? I'd rather jump down from here and end my life immediately so I won't have to live under Angeline's shadow where I'll be humiliated for life."

Madam Ares shed tears of regret when Sera threatened to end her life. "I was wrong. I was wrong, Sera."

It was at this moment that Madam Ares finally regretted indulging Sera. She had given her too much love and intangible desires.

She was trying her very best to restore her daughter's dignity only to realize that her daughter had long lost her dignity.

In Sera's heart, there was only hatred.

"Okay, okay, I will fulfill your wish. Sera, this may be the last time I'll ever love you. I will go and ask Old Master Jack for help, but don't get your hopes up." Madam Ares walked out the door with trembling steps When she walked to the door, Madam Ares suddenly looked back and handed Sera a miserable smile. "If I don't return, then I wish you the best of luck for the future."

Sera opened her eyes, feeling as though her entire body was hit by an electric current. For a moment, she hesitated and opened her mouth, yet no words came out of it.

Madam Ares left in disappointment.

Chapter 1184

The Ares family's villa.

When Madam Ares appeared at the door of the villa, she was intercepted by the gatekeeper. "Madam Ares, Old Master Jack told us not to open the door for you if you comeback."

Madam Ares' face turned pale. "What... What does he mean by that? We aren't divorced yet."

The gatekeeper said, "Old Master Jack said that he has already submitted a divorce application to the court. Your divorce procedures will be carried out by professionals, so you don't need to meet each other." Madam Ares burst into tears, took off the gold bracelet on her wrist, and stuffed it into the hands of the gatekeeper. She then begged him and said, "Please, please go in and tell him that I'm here. Tell him that I must see him no matter what, that even though we're having a divorce, we should meet and end on a good note as husband and wife. I just want to see him one last time."

The gatekeeper returned the gold bracelet to her." Take this back, Madam Ares. Look, I'll let Old Master Jack know that you're here, but I cannot say for sure that he will meet you."

Madam Ares shed grateful tears. "Thank you."

The gatekeeper rushed into the villa and announced Madam Ares' arrival to Jack.

Jack thought for a very long time before saying wearily, "She's only here to beg me for help. Go and tell her that I'm really sorry but there's nothing I can do to help her. Also, ask her not to appear in front of me anymore. We're never going to see each other again, ever."

When the gatekeeper left, he conveyed to Madam Ares the exact same words that Jack just said. After hearing what he said, Madam Ares's heart was shattered.

"We're never going to see each other again, huh? Did I hurt you that deeply, Old Master Jack?"

Madam Ares then tottered away.

When Madam Ares appeared in Sera's ward in her crestfallen state, Sera could already guess what had happened. "He disagreed, didn't he?"

Madam Ares uttered sadly, "He didn't even want to see me, Sera. We're getting a divorce."

Sera felt that her last bit of hope was dashed. Her delicate face suddenly withered like flowers.

"What should I do then?

"If Dad can't come back, who should I rely on in the future?"

Madam Ares said, "Wake up, Sera. Wake up from all your unrealistic dreams. We are children born into poverty from the start. We need to learn how to rest on our laurels. I'll take you away. We'll rent a room, get jobs, and live a simple life."

Sera started roaring in despair. "No... I don't want to live a pitiful life like that."

It was at this time that a nurse walked in with a stack of payment slips. She tossed them to Sera and said with a cold, indifferent face, "This is the hospitalization, treatment, and medicine fees. Please pay 10,000 bucks in advance."

Sera looked at Madam Ares. Madam Ares only shook her head. "I have no money."

Sera roared in despair. "Why do I have such a cowardly and incompetent mother like you?"

Sera's castigation had left Madam Ares petrified.

"How can you blame me, Sera?"

Sera lost control of herself and started screaming at the top of her lungs, "Am I wrong to say that? You gave birth to me but abandoned me by giving me to your best friend. Do you know how I've lived all those years?"

"When Anne gave birth to a son, she ignored me completely. I had to watch other people's expressions, weigh their words carefully, and even flatter them. I lived every day without any dignity trying to fawn over every single person in the Severe family!"

 

Chapter 1185

Chapter 1185

Sera's accusation intensified. "Under the name of 'my mother', you pampered and indulged me. You were clearly aware that I'm jealous of Angeline and that it's impossible for me to snatch Jay away from her. But in order to show your motherly love, not only did you not stop me, but you also encouraged me to indulge in this endless abyss of desires. You even asked me to submit myself to Jack. Just how twisted is your worldview..."

Madam Ares quivered and stood there like a withered tree.

Sera pushed the covers away, dragged her injured leg, and limped outside.

Madam Ares slumped to the ground in despair.

While both Sera and Madam Ares had sunk into despair, there was another person who was more anguished and vexed than them.

That person was Jay.

At the thought of how his credulous nature and distrust toward her had caused the tragic end of the carefree princess whom he always held so dearly in the palm of his hand, even resulting in the abnormality o her five senses and complete paralysis,

all he wanted to do was beat himself to death.

After he left Ryleigh Hospital, he rushed to Garden Of A Diary like a madman.

However, Garden Of A Diary was empty. Not a single person was in sight. For some reason, a hint of panic rose in Jay.

Garden Of A Diary was his and Angelina's home. Angelina had been living here the past few years, and that was proof that Angelina still loved him.

There was only one explanation as to why she had left. He had shattered her heart and left her completely disappointed and disheartened.

"I was wrong, Angelina." Jay's long, straight legs knelt abruptly to the ground.

"Angelina, can you please come home?" His eagle eyes were scarlet as tears welled up in them.

After a very long time, he finally clambered to his feet in a listless and dispirited manner as he walked to the underground garage to drive the Rolls-Royce that had laid dormant for many years. Even though the car had not been driven for three years, he noticed how spotlessly clean it looked. It was clear that Angeline had taken care of his things very well.

Angeline could always move Jay with all the little things she did for him.

After slamming on the gas pedal, the Rolls-Royce zoomed forward like a mad lion all the way from Imperial Capital to Swallow City.

The car was moving so fast that it ran all the red lights. The traffic police tried to intercept this wild car but failed to do so.

When the Rolls-Royce drove into Sycamore Annex, it made an ear-piercing roar that lingered for a very long time.

Zayne came out to open the door. The Rolls-Royce drove straight into the narrow door frame of Sycamore Annex like a ferocious tiger, nearly smashing it down. Zayne paled with fright, looking absolutely stupefied.

As soon as the Rolls-Royce came to a stop, Jay was seen making his way out of the car by kicking the car door open. The mesmerizing figure rushed into the living room like a whirlwind.

Zayne came back to his senses and quickly ran over, blocking Jay outside the gate. He yelled in Jay's face," What are you doing here, Master Ares? The Severe family doesn't want to see you. G-Get out." Those who were sitting in the living room rushed out to see what was going on when they heard the commotion.

Everyone was stunned to see Jay.

It was difficult to describe the look on their faces.

Zayne said what everyone was thinking, "You have put my sister in such a miserable state, so you're now the Severe family's number one enemy. Don't you feel shameless at all for turning up here?" Jay roared with a dark countenance. "Get out of the way. I need to see Angeline."

Zayne snarled. "You don't understand human language, do you? I said Angeline doesn't want to see you. She hates your guts."

Jay glared at Zayne. "Ask her what do I need to do to make her forgive me? I'll do everything she says."

Zayne said, "Shoo. Go. Leave. If she can speak, then I wouldn't be here chasing you away myself."

Jay grabbed Zayne's shoulders emotionally and shook him vigorously. "She really can't talk?"

Zayne covered his mouth in horror. Oh no, he spilled the beans.

Jay realized that the words Zayne said were not in accordance with Angeline's will.

Chapter 1186

Chapter 1186

He pushed Zayne away and bolted upstairs straight away as if he was entering his own house.

Zayne tried to stop him, but Lady Severe shook her head at Zayne and said, "Let him go. Your sister is lovesick and needs to be treated with love. He's your sister's antidote." Zayne stamped his feet with anger. "Antidote? More like a poison to me."

Upstairs.

Jay came to Angeline's bedroom and pushed open the bedroom door in trepidation.

Angeline was curled up on the bed, her dark and shiny hair messily draped over her pale white face. It made her face look much thinner and paler.

Her eyes were wide open, revealing her beautiful black -glazed pupils. Her deep-set eyes made her look extremely haggard, and her gaze was slack yet gloomy.

After entering the room, Jay closed the door behind him gently.

He dragged his lead-filled feet toward the bed.

Then, he knelt on the ground gently, leaned forward, and rested his body on the bed as he gazed at

Angeline's beautiful face. Tears welled up in his eyes uncontrollably.

This was the girl he had loved since childhood!

He did not have a lot of ambitions in life but one, and that was to make a lot of money so that she could lead a carefree life.

However, he ended up being the person who had hurt her most deeply in the end.

He reached out and ran his fingers through her black hair before eventually resting them on her fair face.

Angeline cowered as if she had sensed his touch, yet she gave no other major responses.

"Angeline, Jaybie will take you home, okay?" Jay whispered softly.

Angeline's long eyelashes slightly lowered. She was considered to have given him a response.

"I was wrong, Angeline. You must get well soon so that you'll have the strength to scold me and beat me up to vent your anger."

Jay's voice sounded as gentle as the warm spring breeze that blew straight into Angeline's heart, warming her heart tremendously.

She was not mad at him at all. She did not want to become a burden to him. Her body had let her down, and just like that, she was no longer able to take care of herself anymore. At this moment, Angeline was wrapped in a blanket of inferiority. Her future seemed bleak.

Jay gazed at Angeline and noticed that her lips were still moist. He drew out his hand that was wrapped in her black hair and was about to get up to pour her some water.

Angeline, however, took him by surprise when she suddenly grabbed his hand with a tinge of shamelessness. She did not want him to leave.

Perhaps in Angelina's heart, she felt the greatest sense of security when he was beside her.

Jay was slightly stunned...

Then, it was as if peach blossoms had bloomed in Jay's eyes. With a smile in his eyes, he leaned his sexy lips closer to her ears and whispered softly, "I'm pouring you some water." Before he left, he bit her earlobe gently.

Angeline was so shy that her heart started thumping wildly.

Jay poured some water for her and checked the temperature before helping her up. He then fed her with a spoon.

When she was done drinking the water, Jay wrapped her in a white woolen blanket. Very gently, he picked her up and said, "Let's go home, Angeline."

Angeline wrapped her arms around his neck naturally.

When the bedroom door was opened, Zayne was seen sticking himself to the door in an awkward position.

Jay's countenance turned dark as he glared gloomily a t him.

Zayne said with righteous indignation, "I must keep an eye on you in case you break my sister's heart again."

Chapter 1187

Chapter 1187

Jay announced, "I'm taking Angeline home."

Zayne took on a defensive stance. "This is her home."

Jay held Angeline tighter. Although his eagle eyes looked ruthless and dark, there was a hint of concession in his voice. "Zayne, I don't want to fight with you in front of Angeline. Step aside."

Zayne was stunned. He was surprised that Jay had taken Angeline's emotions into consideration.

"You've recovered your memories?" Zayne asked.

Jay nodded. "Mm."

Zayne then turned to ask Angeline, "Are you sure you want to leave with him, Angel? Listen, I don't mind if you want to stay here. No one here will give you an attitude. If you leave with this devil, you won't be able to speak or move if he bullies you. You can only endure all the grievances yourself..."

At this point, Zayne felt immensely uneasy and anxious about Angeline's fate.

He then turned firm and decisive once more, saying, "N o. No way. You can't take her away. What if you abuse her?"

Jay's eyes turned dark and bone-chilling in an

instant. Like a sharp cold blade, he landed his piercing gaze on Zayne's face. "Do you think I would abuse her?"

Zayne was so frightened by Jay's aura that he shuddered slightly and said in a trembling voice, "If you're in a bad mood one day, would you scream and hit Angel like a punching bag?

"You've seen it too. Angel can't take care of herself and needs a particularly patient guardian..."

"Zayne, I won't let Angeline suffer even just for a little bit." Jay's eyes were extremely firm and determined." I will only love her, pamper her, and make her happy."

Zayne was dumbfounded.

Lady Severe staggered up the stairs and stood at the end of the corridor, reprimanding Zayne harshly," Zayne, you know better than anyone that he's Angeline's lifeline. You're only going to make things worse for Angeline if you separate them by force."

Zayne tugged at his hair, caught between agony and dilemma. "Mom, I'm just worried about Angel."

Lady Severe walked up to Jay and said softly, "I'll leave Angeline to you now, JJ. I have faith in you. You're the person who loves her the most in this world. I know you won't let her suffer." Jay said, "Thanks, Mom."

Lady Severe said, "Go. Go home and start anew. I have faith in you two. You have braved so many storms

together, so it's time you see the rainbow."

Jay nodded with a smile. "Mm."

Jay left with Angeline in his arms.

When Zayne noticed how Angeline wrapped her arms around Jay's neck in such a deft and natural manner, he knew that she had made a choice between the Severe family and Jay. Zayne did not understand why Angeline could still trust Jay so wholeheartedly even after he had done so many things to hurt her.

Zayne was so mad that he lost his mind completely, screaming at them, "That's all you got, Angeline? Don't come crying and running to me when he bullies you in the future."

Jay's back froze slightly. Then, he suddenly turned around. "Don't worry, Angeline won't come crying and running to you if she faces any problems in the future because I'll be there for her."

He then tossed the car key to Zayne and commanded in a domineering tone, "Drive."

Zayne puffed up his cheeks and snapped. "Can't you drive yourself?"

"My hands are full," Jay said.

Zayne,

He followed behind Jay reluctantly and climbed in the Rolls-Royce's driver's seat.

Jay sat in the back seat holding Angeline in his arms.

Zayne revved up the engine, stepped on the accelerator, and zoomed away.

Jay reminded him. "Drive slowly."

Zayne was extremely speechless before he teased, saying, "You've indeed restored your memories. The once bossy and arrogant young master who used to like bossing other people around as he liked is back."

Jay ignored him and was simply gazing at Angeline with eyes full of tender affection as she snuggled and curled up helplessly in his arms like a little kitten.

Chapter 1188

Chapter 1188

Jay stretched out his hand and tucked a loose strand behind her ears as he stroked her fair, exquisite face. He said with heartache, "You've lost weight, Angeline."

When Zayne saw how different Jay was behaving in front of Angeline, he felt very much displeased.

Through the rear-view mirror, Zayne stared speechless at Jay and taunted, "Stop acting all lovey-dovey in front of me. It irritates me a lot."

Jay frowned. "What are you irritated about?"

Zayne said, "How can I not be irritated when my beloved sister has been ruined by a scumbag like you?"

Jay,

He then corrected him with a dark and gloomy countenance. "Excuse me, she doesn't belong to you. I was the one who raised her."

Zayne was rendered speechless.

"You're simply unreasonable."

Jay went full-on domineering mode. "I'm warning you, Zayne. If you try and stop me from spending time with Angeline one more time, I will make sure you won't take a single step into the Ares family, ever." Zayne said without meaning it, "No... No one wants to

step into the Ares family."

Jay said, "Do you think you can stop seeing Josephine then?"

Zayne turned back to look at Jay furiously. "What does this have anything to do with Josephine?"

Jay said, "She's my sister and a member of the Ares family."

Zayne was so furious that he nearly bit his lip so hard to the point that it started bleeding. "How shameless can you be?"

Jay raised his brows.

Zayne sulked. "Forget it, I won't stop you from dating my sister. Tomorrow onward, I'll come to your house every day and keep an eye on you so that you won't bully my sister. I'll annoy you to death." Jay grinned.

Angeline would probably be happy if Zayne came to Garden Of A Diary, right?

Zayne parked the Rolls-Royce at the Garden Of A Diary's entrance. After Jay got off the car with Angeline in his arms, he looked fixedly at the sign that gave off a thick atmosphere of literature with the large characters 'Garden Of A Diary' engraved on it.

Zayne looked at the dazed-looking Jay and teased. "What are you staring at? You were the one who named it Garden Of A Diary, weren't you? What's wrong? Have you finally realized that this name isn't grand enough?"

Jay nodded. "Mm."

When Jay entered the house holding Angeline in his arms, Zayne followed him like a shadow.

Jay just wanted to spend some time alone with Angeline. "It's getting dark. Aren't you going back?"

Zayne sat on the couch like a boss, saying loud and clear, "I'm not going back. I need to stay here to keep an eye on you."

Jay's face darkened at once. "No. It's inconvenient to have you here."

Zayne said, "What's so inconvenient about that?"

As if he had suddenly realized something, Zayne started exclaiming, "You're not trying to roll on the bed with my Angeline, right?"

He then got hot under the collar and protested. "No way. Angeline hasn't even recovered yet."

Jay glared at Zayne furiously. "Why is your head always full of sh*t?"

Zayne muttered, "You said that it's inconvenient, didn't you? What else is inconvenient for me to see if not this?"

Jay walked upstairs holding Angeline in his arms while saying, "I'm going to give Angeline a bath.

Would you like to see that then?" "You win!"

Zayne blushed and made his escape.

Chapter 1189

Chapter 1189

Jay carried Angeline to the bedroom and placed her gently on the bed. Although he knew that she probably would not be able to hear him, he still sought her opinion in an extremely gentlemanly manner. "It's time to take a bath, Angeline."

When he reached out to undress her, Angeline clasped her button and refused to let go. Afraid that she was unable to hear him, he leaned closer to her ear and whispered, "Angeline, I'm going to give you a bath."

Angeline was so shy that her ears turned crimson.

Jay let out a dazzling smile. He already looked as charming as a divine being to start with, but he looked even more enticing when he smiled. Are you shy, Angeline?" He brushed her nose contentedly. He was on cloud nine at this moment because he was certain that Angeline was equipped with a certain degree of hearing.

In fact, Angeline had not lost her hearing at all. It was pride that was holding her back. At the thought that she would end up like her grandfather, bedridden and a burden to others for the rest of her life, she simply found it hard to accept this outcome.

Therefore, she chose to remain uncommunicative.

Jay reached out and stroked her tiny head in a pampered manner, then rested his chin on her head intimately. He said with a smile on his face, "You can hear me, can't you?"

Angeline did not answer him.

Jay continued to say, "I'm sorry for letting you down, Angeline. You love me so much that you were willing to risk your life and even got disfigured because of me, yet a b*stard like me actually believed the words my mother said. I've made you suffer."

Angeline's face was pressed against his chest, and her heart ached when she felt his chest rising and falling in anger.

Actually, she was someone who was open to reason. After he lost his memory, she knew that Jaybie would believe in Madam Ares' words simply because he was a filial son. Furthermore, she had deceived him before, hence she understood just how difficult it was to gain his trust.

Although he doubted her, he had never harmed her. If love was nonexistent between them, then judging from his ruthless character, he would never have been so lenient with her.

She blamed her indecisiveness in the beginning and for constantly worrying about her losses, which caused his misunderstandings toward her to grow.

Jay continued with his repentance. "Angeline, what should I do to relieve your pain? To bring you back to

those carefree days?"

He had tried his very best to fight back his tears, yet they still rolled down his cheeks in the end.

His tears fell on Angeline's face and caught her by surprise.

She had never seen him cry even when they were young.

He had always been a hard-hearted young master in other people's eyes.

One could imagine how heartbroken he was to see her in this state.

"Jaybie," she whispered, "Don't blame yourself. I'm fine."

Jay looked at Angelina in surprise. It turned out that Angelina was still able to speak.

"Angelina... You can talk?" He kissed her forehead excitedly.

"When you can see again, I will kneel on durians, abacus, and keyboards in front of you, okay?"

Angelina said, "I'm just feeling a little weak. I may not be able to see, but I can still hear and speak. Don't blame yourself anymore, okay, Jaybie?"

Jay took her into his arms. "You're always so kind."

Angelina said with a smile, "I'm not kind at all. I'm a she-devil in their eyes."

Jay patted her head. "Tell me what sort of bad things this she-devil has done then?"

Angeline racked her brains and thought for a while. "I n any case, I'm fierce and fearless. I can retaliate and attack. Everyone is afraid of me."

Jay praised her, saying, "Mm, it's good to be fierce because no one would dare to bully my baby."

Angeline,"..."

"You used to call me a she-devil too."

Jay, "..."

He took Angeline's hand and slapped his own mouth fiercely. "I lost both my judgment and IQ when I had amnesia."

Angeline broke into laughter.

Jay let out a knowing smile at the sight of it.

He picked her up and said, "Let's go and take a hath."

Angeline buried her head in his chest, looking extremely coy.

Jay could not resist the urge to tease her. "By the way, I went to the mall with Baby Zetty the other day and bought you some gorgeous sleepwear. I'll put it on for you later, okay?"

Angeline was so shy that her face turned as red as a monkey's butt. The sleepwear was not only see-through but it was also really flimsy. Anyone could tell that it was erotic lingerie. "No." She protested.

Soon, their cheerful and playful voices were heard coming from the bathroom.

That night, Angeline nestled in Jay's arms and slept soundly.

The next day.

Zayne came to Garden Of A Diary very early in the morning.

From his aggressive knocks on the door, Jay thought it was something urgent, though as soon as he opened the door of the villa, what he saw was Zayne leaning languidly on the door frame. Jay exploded. "Why are you here again?"

Seeing that Jay was about to close the door, Zayne quickly made his way in through the gap between the doorway before saying with a grin, "I'm here to visit Angel."

Though he called it a visit, it was more like he was checking up on how Jay was doing because he was clearly worried that Jay was not taking care of Angeline well.

Angeline was on the living room's garden balcony. There was an outdoor oval rocking chair and Angeline was half-lying in it. She was wearing a hooded cloak. The cool breeze blew the fox fur at the hem of the cloak, making her look as lively as a fox.

Zayne rushed to the balcony and inspected Angel carefully, occasionally catching a whiff of a faint floral scent coming from Angeline's clothes.

Zayne had to admit that Jay was taking care of Angeline very well.

A cruel and domineering man like him was actually capable of dressing Angeline up so delicately. He even put on feather-light earrings and bracelets for her. He had completely refreshed his worldview. When Jay was done making breakfast, he carried Angeline to the dining room. Zayne followed them shamelessly.

At the sight of the sumptuous western food, Zayne drooled and said, "Perfect. I haven't had breakfast yet either."

Jay said grumpily, "Eat your breakfast before you come next time. I don't have the time to make yours."

Zayne was slightly speechless.

"What sort of hospitality is this?"

Zayne picked up the tortilla in front of him and had just wrapped some fresh vegetables in it when Jay snatched it over.

Almost all of the fresh vegetables on the plate had been used up. Zayne could not stand it anymore and snapped. "Stingy! Aren't you afraid that your stomach will burst from eating too much?" Jay glared at him.

He then brought the tortilla wrap in his hand to Angeline's mouth, saying softly, "Have a tortilla, Angeline."

Zayne picked up the tortilla on the plate and chomped it down.

When he was looking for a drink, he reached out and grabbed a glass of milk on the table when Jay said," That's Angeline's."

Zayne looked at the empty space in front of him and asked while pulling a long face, "What am I supposed to eat then?"

Jay said, "Your hands and feet are working just fine. Make it yourself."

"I'm a guest."

"I don't serve anyone other than Angeline," Jay replied.

Zayne then stood up gloomily and walked toward the kitchen.
