Ch. 2061..2070

Chapter 2061

Jasper and his siblings were dumbfounded. However, Jasper clearly refused to believe Jay's words and fumingly asked, "You're lying! My dad has a lot of money. He can't even use it now, so what else is he going to do with it if not leave it to us three?"

Jay replied, "He wants to leave it to his illegitimate daughter, Faith. Also, to support all of his other mistresses."

Jasper and his siblings were dumbfounded once again.

When she was alive, their mother had told them how heartless their father had been toward them. It was just that they never expected Jacob to be so wretched.

Jasper and his siblings' arrogance angered Jay, and he did not show them an ounce of respect. He snarled and said, "If it weren't because of Second Aunt, Grand Old Master Ares would've evicted you three money-grubbing siblings out of Tourmaline Estate altogether."

Julia spat out the words, "We're also members of the Ares family, so what reason do you have to drive us out Tourmaline Estate?"

Jay decided to let them know the cruel truth. "On the grounds that your father is not a descendant of the

Ares family."

As soon as he said this, the three siblings were stunned by the sudden turn of events.

Julia muttered, "What? We're not Areses?"

Even Jasper could not withstand such a huge blow and said, "You're bluffing."

Jay's thoughts were in turmoil due to their deliberate provocation, so he angrily scoffed. "Get lost! If you three continue being this impudent and acting so willfully to make a scene, you'll end up with nothing a t all."

At this moment, Jasper and his siblings dared not behave atrociously and gloomily left the place.

Grand Old Master Ares was standing behind a screen wall across the gate. He had listened to everything the three siblings just said. He was so indignant over it that he began slamming his walking cane. "Those three heartless b*stards shouldn't be allowed to stay in the Ares household."

When Jay turned around and heard Grandpa's words, he tried soothing him. "Calm down, Gramps. Now that Jasper and his siblings have learned their lessons, they'll surely turn over new leaves." Grand Old Master Ares looked at Jay and said in bewilderment, "Cheeky brat. You were once the ruthless, unwavering crown prince who never showed mercy to the enemy. Since when did you become so kind?"

Jay supported the grand old master over to sit by the wooden table inside the pavilion. Then, he smiled while saying, "Grandpa, I'll endure whatever I'm able to tolerate and help with whatever I can from now

on."

"And why is that?"

"Good karma. If I do more good deeds, I'll gather more blessings for my Angeline. It's so that she'll have

fewer illnesses and face fewer disasters in the future."

Grand Old Master smiled and said, "The dignified crown prince of Imperial Capital actually believes in these sort of illusionary things? Others will take you for a joke if you say these things out loud." However, the grand old master changed his mind and said with a smile, "But you're quite right. Angeline is carrying my darling great-grandchild in her belly, so for her sake, I'll try not to make things difficult for Jasper and his siblings."

Jay breathed a sigh of relief.

A week later, a message came from the court, stating that Jacob was sentenced to 13 years in prison and fined two million dollars.

Grand Old Master Ares passed down an order to disallow anyone from helping Jacob. The reason being it was a crime committed of his own volition, so he had to pay this sinful debt by himself.

However, in Jacob's view, he could very well sit in prison, but his penniless self was utterly powerless now due to the two million dollars fine.

Jacob had no other choice but to ask his children for help.

On that day, Jasper and his siblings came to visit him in prison. As soon as Jacob saw them, he pleaded," Jasper, Jo, Julia... Why did you guys come so late? Your dad is in jail, for God's sake. Have you helped me take care of things so that I can spend my days more comfortably in prison?"

Jasper looked at him coldly as if there was some distance between them. "Why should we be helping you, Dad?"

Jacob was furious and retorted, "What are you talking about? I'm your father. Why... Are the three of you... tossing me aside and letting me fend for myself?"

Upon realizing Jasper's intention, there was a change in Jacob's expression.

"Are all of you truly that heartless?"

Chapter 2062

Chapter 2062

Jasper sneered and said, "Heartless? But are we as ruthless as you are? You killed our mother and tried to transfer all of her assets without even leaving us a penny. Dad, in comparison to what you've done, we're very compassionate."

Jacob's expression grew awkward and unnatural. "In any case, I still worked hard to bring all three of you up. You can't just sit back and not care about me, right?"

Jasper said, "How do you want us to care for you?"

"The two million dollar fine is just a drop in the ocean for the three of you. So pay it up for me."

Jasper was indignant now and retorted, "Hmph! Don't you know that Jay already knows you're not a descendant of an Ares? Now the three of us don't know how much longer we're allowed to stay in the Ares household. We need to keep some money for emergencies."

"Jasper... How could you be so ruthless...?"

Julia said with tears in her eyes, "Stop it. Don't argue anymore. Two million isn't a lot for us, Brother. Let's just divide it equally."

Jasper and Jo gave it a thought and ultimately agreed to Julia's suggestion.

Julia said to Jacob, "The three of us will pay for your two million dollar fine, Dad. But you're on your own from now on."

After that, Julia turned around and left without looking back.

Jasper and Jo left with her as well, not turning their heads back at all.

Jacob was left behind, and he remained frozen on the spot.

Did his children just abandon him?

A wave of sadness overwhelmed his entire body.

Tears also rolled down his cheeks uncontrollably. When he lifted his sleeve to wipe his tears off, he suddenly heard cold words filled with sarcasm.

"If you had known that this day would come, why'd you do it anyway?"

Jacob widened his eyes and saw Jenson standing stalwartly in front of him. Thinking that his dirty laundry had been seen by this child who was still wet behind the ears, he suddenly got too embarrassed to show his face.

"What are you doing here?" Jacob snarled.

He always believed that it was Jenson who had exposed all his conspiracies. If it were not because of this brat, he would still be the unboundedly magnificent second old master of the Ares family. Jenson was currently standing tall in front of him with his hands behind his back. With his back standing against the light, the rays of light and shadows were mottling him, making him look extraordinarily treacherous.

"I'd like to know where Nephele Davis is."

Jacob sneered, "And why would I tell you that?"

Jenson said, "Jacob Ares, if you don't tell me, I'll evict Jasper and his siblings out of the Ares household."

A trace of panic flashed across Jacob's eyes, but he continued to sneer, "Hmph! Those unfilial children? D o as you wish."

Jenson scoffed back. "There's no need to deceive yourself."

"What do you mean?"

"I saw you talking to Jasper earlier. When he said those words to you, you were upset."

"Any father who's abandoned by his children will feel sad. What's weird about that?"

"But I'd prefer to think that you merely cut ties with them to protect them. That way, the Ares family will sympathize with them and keep them in the Ares family."

"Your imagination is beyond my comprehension, Jenson Ares. I killed their mother, so what makes you think I care about what happens to them?"

Jenson said, "If it were any other people, they would probably believe your words. But I'm different. I was doted on by my daddy and cared for by my mommy, so I believe that there's a high probability that paternal love is selfless."

Chapter 2063

Chapter 2063

After a pause, Jenson said again, "Even if the relationship between a pair of husband and wife is bad, it wouldn't affect a father's love for his children. For example, my daddy didn't love Rose Foyle back then. But it never affected the love he had for me."

Jacob looked at Jenson in horror. He felt that this child was so terrifying. He could see through the world's ways in such a sophisticated gaze at such a young age.

"You're right. I do hate your Grandma Charlotte, but Jasper and his siblings are still my own flesh and blood, after all. I do have some affection for them.

Even if that's the case, so what? I still won't betray Nephele for those three. Since you're so well versed in worldly wisdom, then you should know that love is greater than the sky itself," said Jacob. Jenson shot him a scornful smile before turning around to leave.

"Jenson."

Jacob suddenly stopped him.

Jenson turned around and saw Jacob's mouth curling into a cold sneer. "You must be careful now, Jens."

Jenson's handsome face twitched, and an

inexplicable sense of anxiety rose in his heart.

"Hahaha!" Jacob started laughing like a maniac.

After Nephele got injured in the Yorks family's villa, it was as if she had vanished into thin air and no one could locate her whereabouts.

Jenson knew that as a quack doctor who was well-versed with poison, she surely knew countless mysterious skills in witchcraft. She could change her appearance through disguise or other methods. Looking for her would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

A few days later, Finn finally returned from Cloud City.

His handsome face looked a lot more haggard and thinner, but it gave him a more chiseled face while adding to his masculine charm.

However, Finn had also brought back terrible news." I've searched every corner of Cloud City but I couldn't find any clues regarding Mr. Boye and Baby Zetty."

Everyone's eyes were fixed on Jay at the moment. After all, the person who sent Baby Zetty away in the first place was Jay, so he should know more inside information about this.

However, Jay sighed heavily after a slight pause, saying, "Don't let your mommy know about this."

Everyone's hearts sank when this remark was made.

It seemed like Jay had no clue where Baby Zetty and Boye were as well.

"Daddy, how about I go out there to look for her?" Baby Robbie said anxiously.

Jay cast a glance at Baby Robbie, saying, "You can't even locate Nephele. Do you think you can locate Boye when she's deliberately hiding?"

Everyone had an epiphany at that moment. When Mr. Boye took Baby Zetty to leave Imperial Capital, she must have deliberately paid extra effort to hide all the three of them. Boye's knowledge was definitely not any lesser than Nephele, so if they were not even able to locate Nephele, how on earth would they find Boye?

Jay said, "Grandma Boye has accepted Baby Zetty as her apprentice, so she'll try her best to pass on her medical skills in the next few years. She definitely doesn't want anyone to disturb them, so you don't have to worry about Baby Zetty's safety anymore."

This should have been pleasant news. However, Baby Robbie still said in exasperation, "But Baby Zetty is not the studious type. Great-grandma Boye's knowledge is so profound. Will our Baby Zetty be able t o learn from her?"

Jay's handsome face appeared frozen. "Perhaps she'll be free once she has learned everything there is to know. Presumably, Grandma Boye won't allow Baby Zetty to fail in inheriting the Boye family's knowledge."

Baby Robbie whimpered, "Boo-hoo... How long will it be until I see my sister again? It won't take her until her hair is gray for her to finish her apprenticeship, right?"

Finn stood at the side, not saying anything.

No one knew how heavy his heart was feeling at the moment.

He was filled with guilt and self-blame toward Baby Zetty, as well as infinite worries.

If it were not because of him, would Baby Zetty have left in the first place?

Since then, Baby Zetty had become an untouchable soft spot in everyone's hearts.

Baby Bobbie suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "I must find Nephele Davis!"

Everyone became fearful of this. Baby Robbie's vow in searching for Nephele was perhaps because of Baby Zetty, right?

 

Chapter 2064

Chapter 2064

It was as though if Baby Robbie could locate Nephele, then there would be hope for them to search for the missing Baby Zetty.

Finn stepped forth and made a vow as well, "Great. I'll come with you."

Jay merely waved his hand at them, saying, "Go then."

Once the children left Chateau de Selene, Jenson and Baby Robbie parted ways as well.

Jenson said, "Robbie, I'll need to restructure and reshuffle the Ares family after the collapse of the second family. I might be busy cleaning up this mess these days, so I'll leave the matter of looking for Nephele to you and our sisters."

Baby Robbie said, "Rest assured, Jens. I'll surely bring Nephele to justice."

Jenson turned to the Ghost members and said, "You guys follow me to Mammoth Courtyard."

The Ghost members nodded. "Yes, sir."

Hence, Jenson brought Grayson and the others to Mammoth Courtyard.

Meanwhile, Baby Robbie took the Ares sisters and went to the Yorks family's villa.

Mammoth Courtyard.

Since Jacob was evicted from the Ares household, all of his other mistresses and illegitimate children were no longer qualified to stay in Tourmaline Estate. When the Ares family's guards came to drive them out, all of the mistresses started weeping aloud.

"Goodness! I thought that marrying the old master would give me endless glory and wealth. Who would've imagined that Jacob isn't an Ares descendant? He's truly brought calamity upon us!" Jenson looked at these women from a detached point of view. His eagle-like gaze swept across each one of the desolated faces.

Grayson started chatting with Storm and the others." Storm, look at all these women. They're all somewhat good-looking and would've had stable lives if they were to marry ordinary people. How did they come to fancy a wretched old man like Jacob?"

Storm said, "Majority of women live for money.

Without it, they'll feel no sense of security. So women only like rich men."

Grayson scoffed. "Is that so? Then I'll never get married in my life. For which reason should I find a woman just so she'll spend my money? I won't do such a thing."

Tempest chimed in, "Not every woman loves money.

For example, our missus only loves Sir Ares..."

Grayson thought of the money that Sir Ares had spent on his wife, which was innumerable, and shook his head like a rattle while saying, "You're wrong. You're so gravely mistaken. Even if these women had spent Jacob's money, at the very least, he wouldn't go bankrupt because of them. But the missus' expenses s o far would've made a few Jacobs go broke. It's just that our Sir Ares has a considerably vast amount of funds for her to spend."

Jenson silently glared at them, saying, "If you can't bear to spend your money, just bring it with you into your coffins once you die."

Grayson sniffled and said, "I don't have much money."

Jenson said, "Stop lying. Your pants will be on fire."

Grayson glanced nervously at his pants and heaved a sigh.

Storm could not help but laugh heartily.

Everyone knew that Grayson's wages were sky-high. Moreover, he was a cheapskate, so the money he had saved over so many years was certainly not a small amount. Moreover, he had secretly invested in some projects abroad under Jay's name, so he perhaps had a pot full of gold by now.

It was just that to avoid Sir Ares knowing about this, he lived his life pretending he was on the verge of destitution.

Jenson's eyes wandered across these enchanting women's faces. He was looking for some unusual clues from these mistresses. However, it was evident that Grayson had misunderstood Jenson's intention.

He said to Jenson, "Just tell us what kind of woman you like, Mr. Ares? These old women are merely vixens with nothing much to offer..."

"Shut it." Jenson scoffed.

Chapter 2065

Chapter 2065

Grayson looked at Jens from head to toe a couple of times. Jens' current stature was approaching Grayson's height, so he appeared very mature when coupled with his cold personality.

Since Grayson was responsible for Jens' physical and mental health, he explained to him like a big brother while earnestly persuading him, "Don't be shy, Mr. Ares. When boys reach 15 to 16 years of age, it's the budding period for puberty. So it's normal to be interested in women. Don't hold yourself back..."

Jenson was fuming.

For Jenson, who would fight over the most minor matter, the consequences of offending him were severe. At this moment, Jenson stared at Grayson with his cold pair of eyes. A sneer filled with gloat flashed across those handsome pupils of his.

Grayson quickly hugged his shoulders and shrank.

"Wh-What are you planning on doing, Jens?"

Jenson said, "You're in your 30s but you've never held hands with a woman before, let alone kiss any of them. When you're lonely at night, I'm wondering how you solve it?"

Grayson blushed with embarrassment, saying, "Ahhh!

You've become naughtier, Jens."

Jenson said, "To prevent you from stifling yourself, I've decided to look for a girlfriend for you. Tell me, what kind of woman do you like? Or perhaps, do you like any of these women here? I can help matchmake you."

Grayson originally wanted to tease Jens with the current situation. However, he never expected the plan to backfire on him so badly.

Storm proceeded to laugh, rejoicing in Grayson's misfortune.

However, Grayson said in a deadpan expression, "I don't like women."

Jens took his prank a step further, saying, "So you prefer men? Don't be scared. Although my daddy appears conservative, he's quite open-minded. He'll accept you as who you are." Grayson was so anxious that cold sweat was forming on his back.

"Stop joking, Mr. Ares."

Jenson's eyes were currently locked on a young woman who was simply dressed and had a clean face. He merely pointed at her and said to Grayson, "What do you think of her?" Grayson looked over and saw the lady dressed in plain, snow-like clothing. She looked like a fairy who had descended the earth. Her temperament was

otherworldly and fresh as an orchid in a valley.

"You have quite the taste, Mr. Ares."

Jenson said, "It's good that you like her."

"What do you mean?" Grayson suddenly had a bad feeling about this.

"Approach her and find a way to make her fall in love with you," said Jenson.

Grayson said, "You must be joking, right, Jens?"

"I'm not kidding. There must be a story behind this woman. I need you to dig it out.

Grayson asked, "How can you tell that she has a story?"

Jenson said, "Intuition."

Grayson,"..."

At this time, Tempest started to wonder. "This woman is breathtaking. If she's truly Jacob's woman, then she would've definitely been one of his favorites. But you can see that she's too simply dressed and doesn't have a desolated look on her face like the others. It's evident she doesn't have much affection for Jacob.

Perhaps she was forced to be with him?"

Grayson looked at Tempest in horror, exclaiming, "Dang! Are you a mind reader?"

Grayson gave it a thought and bit the bullet to walk up to the beautiful woman. He was trying to make a move on her.

"Madam, may we have a word with you?"

The woman looked at Grayson before ultimately nodding after a slight pause.

At this moment, Jenson's eyes finally moved away from the mistresses. He shifted his gaze toward Grayson and that beautiful woman.

Grayson was keeping his distance from her, and this made Jenson furrow his brows.

"Has he always avoided dealing with women before this?" Jenson asked.

Chapter 2066

Chapter 2066

Storm said, "Grayson has a natural fear of women."

Jenson was somewhat dumbfounded by this. "How s o?"

A trace of pity flashed across Storm's face. "It's perhaps related to his childhood experience."

Jenson was intrigued, and he focused on listening to Storm's story. "Grayson had long forgotten about what happened to him before he met Sir Ares. At the time, he was not so resistant toward women in general. But in recent years, he's slowly remembering the things that happened to him when he was a child, and it's triggering his phobia toward women."

"What happened to him?"

Storm said, "He never elaborated it. But it has something to do with his mother. It seems that because his mother had cheated, his father got into a fight with her and ultimately, his mother ended up killing his father."

Jenson was utterly taken aback.

Grayson was sealing up such a painful memory in his head?

Storm smiled bitterly and said, "Jens, in this world, a blessed person can live however they want to, but for

the ones who are unfortunate, they can only end up being servile."

Jenson domineeringly said, "There's no need for any of you to be servile."

Storm added bitterly, "That's true. On the surface, we're the Ghost members whom everyone admires, and our grandeur is infinite. But no one knows that when it's dark out, our hearts grow darker as well. I often wonder why my mom and dad abandoned me? And what kind of sordid history does my biological family have?"

Jenson silently patted Storm on the shoulder to comfort him.

"An unfortunate traumatic childhood takes a lifetime to heal, Jens," said Storm with a bitter smile on his face.

Jenson looked at Storm and asked, "How about you? What was your childhood like?"

His intuition told him that Storm's childhood might be even darker.

Storm showed a small smile and said, "Me? I... I can't remember what my parents look like anymore."

Jenson chose to be a listener.

Storm slowly spoke, "My mom and dad got a divorce not long after I was born, and my father was given custody of me. But after my dad got married to my stepmother, she didn't like me so I was tossed aside to my grandparents instead. Perhaps I was cursed for a lifetime because not long after, both of my grandparents died as well. My stepmother said that I was ominous, so my dad sold me off." Jenson felt a lump in his throat. "Your dad's utterly heartless."

Storm continued, "I was sold to a pair of barren farmers. They weren't rich, but they were good to me a t the beginning. Once they gave birth to their own child, however, they sold me off again." A trace of sadness shrouded Storm's eyes.

"Truthfully, I shouldn't have gone looking for my past. Finding out about it gave me even more sorrow."

Jenson said, "You still have me, Brother Storm."

Storm looked at Jens. He was still a young child, but his eyes were so clear and bright with a burning determination inside of them.

It was as if he was a towering tree with leaves that could shelter them from the wind and rain.

Instantly, somewhere in Storm's heart became extremely warm.

"Yeah."

From then on, Storm strengthened his confidence. He would follow Jenson forever.

Initially, Storm had been worrying about his future if Sir Ares were to retire. As for Jenson, because of the rumors that he was arrogant, cold, and unkind, Storm was a little worried that he and Jens would not get along well.

Now, it seemed like he had been overthinking it.

Underneath Jens' cold-hearted demeanor, there was a heart filled with love and a sense of righteousness.

After Grayson and the beautiful woman talked for a couple of minutes, Grayson decided to become the wet blanket. He stopped their little chats and kept turning around, asking for Jenson's help. Jenson was indifferent toward his pleas.

After all, worming his way into being friends with an unfamiliar woman was something he was not good at.

Chapter 2067

Chapter 2067

Grayson bit the bullet and chatted with the woman again, "Do you have anywhere to go, Madam?"

The beautiful woman shook her head.

"So where do you plan on going?" Grayson asked dryly.

The woman spoke in a foreign accent when she said," I have nowhere to go."

Grayson's face immediately darkened. Where on earth did Jacob find such a stunner? She was indeed a bimbo and nothing else but a pretty face. However, since that tyrannical president was asking him to put his good looks to use, he had no other option but to accept this task reluctantly.

Grayson pretended to sympathize with this woman and suggested, "Then, do you want to live with me for a while?"

The woman's eyes immediately blossomed into brilliant rays of light as she excitedly nodded her head.

Grayson led the woman to Jenson and said, "Mr. Ares, this woman has nowhere to go so I've decided to take her to our Ghost Garden."

Jenson showed a pleased smile. "Job well done."

Several of the other Ghost members were instantly

petrified.

Storm murmured, "After finally sending Tammy away, you're bringing another woman to our place? It makes me utterly uncomfortable." Grayson shot a sharp gaze at Storm. "Do you think I want this?"

He cast a fearful gaze at Jens and aggrievedly added," Do you know the consequences of disobeying this little devil's order?"

"What are the consequences?"

"He's going to find a wife for me."

Storm also knew that Grayson was afraid of women, s o he merely let Grayson poke fun at him.

Grayson grabbed Storm's shoulder and said, "I'll sleep next to you tonight."

Storm immediately refused. "No way. I'm used to sleeping alone. If you're next to me, I'm afraid I might wake up in the middle of the night and kill you after mistaking you for a robber." Grayson looked at Tempest, but Tempest also shook his head. "Neither can I. I'm already used to living alone for so many years. I'll be uncomfortable with you at my place." Then, Tempest suggested to Grayson, "You can sleep with Finn. Since that fellow just broke up with his girlfriend, you can go ahead and fill up the emptiness he's feeling." Grayson walked toward Finn and said, "Finn, I'll be sleeping with you tonight."

Finn glared at him, saying, "You're not afraid of me waking up in the middle of the night and mistaking you for a woman?" 1

Grayson,

Grayson quickly went back to Jenson and said with a bitter expression, "Mr. Ares, they won't let me sleep with them tonight. Should I sleep in a hotel?"

Jenson handed him a death stare. "Stay in your own place tonight."

Grayson glanced back at the magnificent woman and noticed that all of her curves were in the right places. She looked so enticingly sexy, yet he immediately shuddered all over. "Don't be so cruel, Mr. Ares."

Jenson scoffed at him in a low voice. "I'm asking you to approach her so that you can get some information out of her. If you avoid her, how are you planning on accomplishing your task?" Grayson was immediately dumbstruck, and he started drooling.

"Oh my God!"

Jenson looked at the pitiful Grayson and thought of his childhood trauma. He felt some compassion for him and said, "But I can send someone to help you."

Grayson was immensely relieved as he smiled and asked, "Who is it?"

"My eldest sister Andy."

Grayson pondered over it and ultimately locked his gaze on one of the beautiful faces among the Ares girls. He thought of the one with a fearless face who was not arrogant nor impatient but rather candid and innocent.

"Mr. Ares, I can't even handle one of them, let alone two. How do you propose I live with them? Why don't you just stab me to death with a knife?"

"Sis Andy's personality is outspoken and straight, so just think of her as a man."

Grayson cried out, "But that doesn't change the fact that she's a girl!"

Jenson was too lazy to listen to any more of his complaints.

Grayson had the beautiful woman stay in his room that night and prepared to hide in the other Ghost members' homes. However, as soon as he opened the door, he saw Andy standing tall by his doorway, wearing a neutral casual suit.

Chapter 2068

Chapter 2068

"Brother Grayson, where are you going?" Andy asked with a grin.

Grayson was petrified.

"I was just wondering if the moon is out tonight?"

Then, he closed the door and locked it.

Not long after, Grayson went out again. When he opened the door, he saw Andy, who was as energized as a night owl, once more. She was staring at him with much enthusiasm. She teased, "So after seeing the moon, are you out to see the stars now?"

Grayson closed the door in a huff once more.

Then, Grayson climbed out the window to escape while carrying a blanket in his arms in the middle of the night.

However, just as he threw the blanket down the window, he could hear Andy's voice coming from downstairs. Was she itching for a good spanking?!" Thank you so much, Brother Grayson. How'd you know tha I'm feeling cold?"

Grayson was dumbfounded.

Hence, the blanket-less Grayson began to shiver coldly.

It seemed he would not be getting a good night's sleep today.

Early in the morning, Grayson opened the door with dark circles below his eyes and saw Andy lying near the corridor while wrapped tightly in his blanket.

The sensitive Andy jumped up and glared at Grayson when she heard the sound of the door opening.

"Big Brother, can you stop making a scene? Even if you don't want to sleep, I'd still like to have my beauty rest."

Grayson was utterly distressed and said, "It's already dawn, so you can head back now."

Andy leaned in front of him and said in a low voice," You keep trying to escape every second and can't even complete the task. Jens will never send her away." "That woman is a bimbo. What do I even ask her?"

Andy gave it a thought and said, "You can ask for her name and who her family members are. Just think of it like meeting a friend for the first time. Once you're more familiar with her, she'll naturally open up even more."

Grayson was distressed. "But whenever I talk to a woman, I'll stammer."

Andy's beautiful face turned dark in an instant. " Brother Grayson, what you're saying is extremely insulting to me. Am I not a woman?"

Grayson said, "I don't think of you as a girl."

Andy was furiously gritting her teeth now. "What are you trying to say here? That I'm not feminine?"

Grayson looked at Andy from top to bottom in scrutiny.

"Just take a look at yourself. You're in a white suit. How is that feminine?"

Andy refused to be misled by him and said, "Why you ... I'll make sure you switch teams!"

Grayson's expression turned dark and he scoffed. "What do you mean by that?"

Andy smiled and said, "I thought you didn't like women? That's why I said that I'll make you switch teams."

Grayson looked at her contemptuously. "A tomboy like you?"

Andy clenched her fists. "Just wait and see."

Grayson was so angry that he was about to shut the door again. This time, Andy placed one foot in so suddenly that Grayson had to abruptly stop his movements. "What on earth are you doing?" Grayson asked in a huff.

After getting insulted by Andy so early in the morning, his mood was thoroughly ruined.

Andy absent-mindedly smiled at him. "Come on, let m

e in. I'll ask her for you."

Since it was something Grayson had been dying to achieve, he hurriedly opened the door and beckoned Andy to come in.

When Andy entered the house, she realized the woman was still asleep.

Andy sat on Grayson's sofa like a young master, and this action immediately irritated Grayson.

"Pour me a glass of water, Brother Grayson. I'm thirsty." "Don't you have hands?" Grayson was speechless.

Andy arrogantly muttered, "Oh my, I'm so thirsty right now. When I ask her questions later, I sure hope my performance won't be lacking because of my dry throat."

Chapter 2069

Chapter 2069

"I'll pour a glass of water for you right away, m'lady." Grayson went ahead and got Andy a glass of water before angrily putting it on the coffee table in front of her. Once Andy took a sip, she looked at Grayson mischievously once more.

"What are you plotting now?" Grayson asked somewhat fearfully.

"I'm hungry, Brother Grayson."

"Go and make something on your own. But make me something as well," said Grayson shamelessly.

Andy immediately laid back on the sofa and said, "I'm losing energy from starvation. I think I won't be able to ask her anything later."

Grayson's face darkened from anger, and he pointed at Andy while scolding her, "You'd better perform well later. Otherwise, you'll find out what I'll do to you after!"

Grayson went into the kitchen, and Andy proceeded to shout, "Make three portions!"

Very soon, Grayson had made three portions of sandwiches.

Then, Sis Andy ate two of them. Grayson dumbfoundedly asked, "Isn't one for the woman upstairs?"

Andy giggled and said, "I'm hungry."

Grayson gritted his teeth in rage.

Not long after, the woman came out of the bedroom.

Andy said to her, "Pretty lady, we don't know what you'd like to eat, so we didn't prepare your breakfast. But the ingredients are in the refrigerator, so you can make whatever you like." The woman walked up to Andy and Grayson, saying bluntly, "I can't cook."

Andy was dumbfounded.

There were very few women in this world who could not make a single meal. Even her mommy Angeline, who her daddy utterly pampered, knew how to cook even though she did not have to.

"Pretty lady, you've never cooked before?" Andy lifted the woman's hand. They were long and slender, simply breathtaking like a piece of art.

"Woah! Aunty, your hands look like you've never lifted a thing in your life. Your family must've been rich, Aunty. Your mom and dad must've loved you very much, right?"

"Yeah." The lady nodded faintly.

Andy changed the topic when furious righteousness overwhelmed her. "Then why'd you marry a beast-like man like Jacob Ares? He even went as far as to hurt his first wife. Were you happy after getting together with him?"

A fleeting trace of grief flashed in the woman's eyes.

However, she still appeared gentle when she said, "It wasn't me who wanted to marry him."

"Then why did you? Could it be that he used his power to forcibly take you away?"

The woman shook her head as tears welled up in her eyes.

"I don't remember why I married him. I lost a part of my memories and only remember the things that happened before I came to Second Old Master's side."

Andy was utterly shocked.

"So you have amnesia? How pitiful."

Grayson was overcome with boredom as he watched Andy and the madam chat about ordinary things. In his eyes, this little brat's ploy to pretend to be an innocent and harmless pretty boy to deceive this innocent woman was simply disgraceful.

"Then what do you remember?"

The woman tried her best to recall her memories and said, "I remember that my home is inside a dense forest... There are many beautiful flowers and plants around, and when I was a child, I needed to memorize the names of many of them. Some of them were toxic and others were safe... And I also had to eat a lot of them too..."

Andy and Grayson's eyes sank sharply. The information the woman just revealed was a surprise to them.

Andy said, "I thought you were the daughter of a great and rich family. I didn't think you were born in a medical household inside a forest." "After eating a lot of flowers and other plants, my consciousness became duller. Then I seemed to have started losing my memories..." Andy said, "Those plants were poisonous, so why'd you eat them anyway?"

"I had to eat them. Because I'm..." The woman shook her head as though she was in pain. "If I didn't, my mom and dad and my whole family would die." "Goodness me." Andy was innately chivalrous. Upon hearing this sort of inhumane way of testing medicine, she felt like annihilating the entire human race. "Do you remember anything more?"

"I only remember this much."

Andy said to Grayson, "Brother Grayson, why are you standing around in a daze? Cook a meal for the beautiful woman."

Grayson showed Andy a look as if he ought to beat her up before turning around and walking into the kitchen.

Before long, Andy crept into the kitchen as well.

Grayson noticed how suspicious she was acting and folded his arms. He looked at her calmly, asking," What do you want now?"

"Shhh." Andy made a shushing gesture at him.

"Brother Grayson, this woman may have something to do with Madam Nephele. Take care of her. If I'm right,

Madam Nephele will definitely look for a way to rescue her, so you must pay attention to your safety. I'll head back and bring more help for you guys." Grayson was speechless.

"Here in the Ghost members' territory? Do you really think we need backup? Are the military intelligence division sisters better than the Ghost members?"

Andy patted Grayson's chest, saying, "Don't be so angry all the time. Were you a firework in your past life? You seem to explode at the slightest spark. I'm just telling you, the Ghost members might be powerful in combat, but you guys can't deal with those who practice witchcraft. We're done here. I'll get you more troops."

Grayson looked askance at Andy's guileless hand and said, "Get your hand off."

Andy was stunned upon seeing how much resistance Grayson was putting up to a woman's approach. Her mischievous side was aroused, and she said, "Alright, alright, don't be angry. I'll get lost right this instant." Afterward, she moved her hand to pinch Grayson's cheek.

Grayson immediately lifted her onto his shoulder and did a shoulder throw... However, Andy was sticking onto him like taffy, clinging to his body tightly.

"Throw me if you dare."

Grayson tried to throw her once more...!

Andy hung onto him upside down and held onto his thighs tightly with both hands. Then, she restlessly tickled him...

Grayson immediately lost his grip on her.

Andy got up from the ground and grinned from ear to ear.

"You're still too inexperienced to deal with me."

Grayson's face became unimaginably distorted.

A man in his 30s could not even defeat a little girl. He would be embarrassed to tell anyone about this.

"I'll count to three. Get out of my sight right now! Or else..."

"I'll go right now!" Andy knew that she was definitely not Grayson's opponent in a real fight and hurriedly slipped away.

After Andy left, Grayson touched his slightly sore heart and muttered, "Women sure are trouble."

Andy saw Baby Robbie and reported all her findings to him. Then, she concluded, "I'm sure that woman has something to do with Nephele. Let's kidnap her here, Robbie. It's a waste of resources to place her with Grayson, that uncouth fellow."

Baby Robbie smiled charmingly and said, "That's what you're not aware of, Sis Andy. Jens placed that delicately pretty lady with Grayson with another ulterior motive."

"What do you mean?" "Everyone knows that Grayson is afraid of women. Jens was not truly expecting Brother Grayson to be able to get a lot of valuable information from her with such an arrangement. He merely wanted Brother Grayson to overcome his fear of women."

Andy said, "So that was the case?"

Then, Andy exclaimed, "He's not that afraid of women, right? He had an enjoyable fight with me this morning?"

Baby Robbie looked at Andy who was dressed in gender-neutral attire and said, "That's because he doesn't treat you like a girl."
