Chapter 2341

Whitney was already lost in thought.

She did not think that she could ever be as generous a s Roxie, giving her beloved man to other women to take care of. After all, no one in this world would love Jens more than her.

Whitney and Roxie chatted for a while, and the two went to sleep soundly.

It was dead silent at night.

There was a petite figure as agile as a cat leaping under the eaves.

Dressed in dark clothing and a black veil, the person took out a cigarette pipe from their bag. They gently blew the poisonous smoke in from the gap of the window.

After confirming that the drug had begun to take effect, she pushed the window open and jumped in.

She drifted to the bed akin to a ghost, lingering around Whitney and Roxie. Whitney was sleeping on the outer side of the bed while Roxie was sleeping on the inner side. In order to make sure Whitney had passed out, the person tapped on her to make sure she would not wake up.

It was this action that made the muddle-headed Roxie open her eyes alertly.

Due to her physical injury and after getting weakened by the poisonous smoke, she could only glare at the person dressed in all black.

The figure of the person wearing all black was so small and thin. It was clearly a woman with stunted growth. Looking at those eyes again and recalling how she had gotten injured, Roxie could easily guess he identity.

"Why, Thirteen?"

Thirteen pulled her veil off, and her face underneath was as cold as ice. Her eyes were as deep as a black hole, looking especially daunting.

Roxie suddenly smiled at her. "For so many years, we've depended on each other for dear life. I almost believed that your heart belonged with us. Now it seems that your acting skills are just too good." Thirteen said coldly, "You're not so bad yourself. If it weren't because of that smart trap and my daddy misplacing his faith, leading to using you wrongly, he wouldn't have fallen to that extent." Roxie's back was getting drenched in a cold sweat.

Thirteen had always pretended to be indifferent about her feelings toward Monster, but now it sounded like the relationship between the father and daughter was still rather profound. Roxie suddenly understood the meaning behind blood being thicker than water.

Roxie was extremely worried at the moment since she was clearly not the only one Thirteen was about to get rid of.

The other military intelligence

division sisters, Robbie, and Jens

had all participated in the battle

against Monster back then. If Thirteen wanted to avenge her

father, then Robbie and the others

would be in danger.

Thirteen's martial arts had always been the best among them. After all, she was the only one who was taught by Monster himself.

"What do you want?" Roxie asked in fear.

Thirteen asked quietly, "Earlier

during the day, the look in your eyes when you were staring at me was rather meaningful. I just want to

know what was the reason net

you

looked at me with those eyes Sis Roxie?"

Roxie smiled and said, "You came to me in the middle of the night just to ask this?"

There was a streak of cold light in Thirteen's eyes when she said, "I know that you're clever. You've always been smarter than the other sisters But haven't you heard of the term being too smart for your own good?"

Roxie said, "Yes. I'm indeed different from the other sisters. I don't trust you, so I took a second glance at you today. After all, you're Monster's biological daughter." Thirteen asked softly, "So what did you see?"

Regardless of her life or death, Roxie replied, "I saw that when Robbie was in danger, the other sisters were very anxious about him but your expression remained indifferent." Thirteen gritted her teeth. "After what he did to my daddy, I'm already kind enough to not stab him with a knife. What? Are you still expecting me to serve him with a smile?"

Roxie trembled in anger. "Thirteen, be frank with me. Did you stay with us all these years just to take revenge?"

Thirteen was silent.

However, her next action soon answered the question.

She took out a colorless and odorless poison, opened Roxie's mouth, and poured it in.

Chapter 2342

Chapter 2342

Roxie suddenly felt that her respiratory tract was scalding hot. She could no longer speak.

Thirteen held her dagger out again and was about to slash the tendon in Roxie's hand when someone grabbed her other wrist.

Whitney had regained her consciousness and was sitting up. She started twisting Thirteen's wrist with force and after pushing her off, Thirteen flew back in an instant and fell on the ground. Seeing this situation, Thirteen quickly tried to escape.

Whitney immediately went looking for an antidote and made Roxie swallow it.

When Roxie started speaking again, her voice was a little hoarse.

Whitney was incredibly apologetic and said, "I'm sorry, Roxie. I'm not knowledgeable in medicine, so I only have these sorts of antidote pills."

Roxie already felt that she was infinitely lucky. Most of the poisonous smoke from the military intelligence division was potent and incurable. However, Whitney's antidote could get rid of most of the toxins in her body. She was very fortunate.

"Thank you, Sis-in-law. If you weren't around today,

I'm afraid I would've died in her hands."

Whitney scoffed. "Lil Thirteen looks innocent, weak, and pitiful. She makes people want to protect her. I didn't think she'd be so sinister in the dark."

Roxie shook her head and felt very sympathetic toward Thirteen. "Perhaps you don't know this, Sis-in-law. Many of the military intelligence division girls came to the division involuntarily. Being Monster's biological daughter, Thirteen's father trained her to become a cold-blooded killer. She couldn't decide her own fate."

Whitney sighed at this.

Soon, Baby Robbie found out that Roxie was poisoned again, which resulted in her damaged vocal cords. He immediately rushed to Whitney's dormitory.

Seeing Roxie so haggard again, Baby Robbie's heart felt like it was cut by a knife.

"It's all my fault, Sis Six. I didn't protect you well enough."

Every time Roxie saw Robbie being sad for her, she felt very guilty in her heart.

"Don't be too sad, Robbie. I'm the one who's bad at protecting myself."

The other sisters were puzzled, and Sis Five questioned Roxie, "Did you take a good look at the person who poisoned you, Roxie? Hmph! If find out who that person is, I'll smash them into pieces!"

Roxie and Whitney looked at each other.

Both of them were keeping their lips sealed about the culprit.

Baby Robbie had long noticed that Thirteen was not among the sisters, and he could already guess that she was the culprit.

"It's Thirteen, isn't it?"

The sisters widened their eyes in horror. They found it difficult to accept this sort of conclusion.

Roxie grew silent again.

Sis Five was incredibly angry and yelled, "What on earth is she thinking? Can't she just live a good life with the rest of us? Does she have to go back to her role as an assassin and the little princess of the military intelligence division? Will she only feel more content then?"

Everyone felt heartbroken facing the betrayal of Sis Thirteen.

Baby Robbie looked over at Roxie. He thought about how Roxie was a lively girl a few days ago, but now her legs were disabled and her vocal cords were damaged.

He felt very sad and started blaming himself in his heart. She had saved him twice now. She truly did love him and care about him.

"I'm taking you back to Imperial Capital, Sis Six. I'll have the doctors treat you." Baby Robbie made up his mind.

Meanwhile, Roxie stayed very calm.

She knew that Zetty, the genius doctor had left Imperial Capital. The other doctors in Imperial Capital

might not be able to cure the poisons circulating in their world.

Baby Robbie was just unable to give her up.

Roxie was extremely grateful for Baby Robbie's affection and sense of righteousness. She was also happy as being able to fall for someone like Robbie was the greatest fortune in her life. "Don't feel guilty or sad, Baby Robbie. Even if I become disabled, I'm still much happier now in comparison to the life I lived in the military intelligence division."

 

Chapter 2343

Chapter 2343

Baby Robbie burst into tears. "I'll not have you turn into a cripple, Sis Six. Rest assured. I'll get packing and we'll return to Imperial Capital."

Due to Baby Robbie's stubbornness, Roxie could only choose to obey him.

Whitney gave it a thought for a moment and said, "If you're going back to Imperial Capital, I'm afraid those bandits will follow you. So to ensure your safety, I'll escort the two of you home."

Just like that, Whitney explained the situation to the leaders of the academy and asked for time off for Robbie and the girls. The group of people immediately boarded a plane to fly back to Imperial Capital. After a few hours, they arrived at Imperial Capital.

Whitney was very excited because she finally came to Jens' hometown. She was about to see Jens again and felt both happy and nervous.

They hailed a taxi at the airport. After Robbie and the others got into the cab, Whitney suddenly felt that someone had their eyes on Robbie.

Whitney was slightly alarmed, and she hinted something to Robbie with the movement of her mouth. When Robbie noticed the person, his eyes grew darker.

Then, Whitney disappeared into the crowd.

Inside the car, Sis Six asked him curiously, "Why isn't Sis-in-law coming with us?"

Baby Robbie lowered his voice and said, "Someone is following us."

The expression on Sis Five's face quickly changed.

Roxie grew worried about Whitney. "What about Sis-in-law, Robbie?"

Robbie pondered over it and said, "Those gangsters are from the military intelligence division, so they may not recognize her."

Nonetheless, he felt a tight clench in his heart. He prayed that nothing bad would happen to Whitney.

"Let's go."

When their car started moving, a car started trailing them from behind.

However, there was another car that swiftly followed behind that vehicle.

Baby Robbie turned on his phone and texted Jens for help: [Jens, we're heading back to Tourmaline Estate now by cab. We're being followed.] Jenson very calmly instructed: [Share your location.]

Baby Robbie added: [However, they have no clue there's a bigger threat lurking behind them. Sis-in-law is trailing them now.]

Jenson immediately lost his calmness.

[Why did you bring her back?]

Baby Robbie no longer felt any contempt for Whitney and began to enthusiastically praise her instead: [ Jens, Siszin-law saved my life. She's even willing to teach me her secret technique. I can see how much she loves you. Even your siblings are benefiting from her just because she loves you]

Jenson said very proudly: [Well, she's quite a sensible person.]

ét

Baby Robbie paused for a moment, and it took a long time before he could type out the next sentence: Roxie's injured, and Thirteen betrayed us. If Sis-in-law hadn't helped us, Roxie might not still be around now.

Jenson clenched his phone, and his fingers were turning white.

However, he had expected this day would come.

[Don't be sad.] He tried comforting Robbie.

Robbie replied: [I don't want anything happening to Roxie, Jens.]

Jenson added: [I'll think of a way to contact Zetty and ask her to come back.]

[Okay.]

While Jenson was texting Robbie, he had already given the Ghost members their mission. The danger level of this mission was set to the highest level.

When Grayson saw the level of the mission, he made the most comprehensive preparations for the Ghost members at the fastest speed. He then quickly reunited with Robbie. Then, Robbie ordered the driver to park the car in a desolated suburb.

As soon as the car stopped, a dozen military vehicles drove from behind them. Heaps of gangsters sprang out of the vehicles, and they flocked to Baby Robbie in a hostile manner. Robbie clenched his fists, preparing for a battle.

Just then, several sports cars drove toward them.

"Robbie!"

Grayson, Tempest, Storm, and dozens of Ghost members got out of their cars as well.

Grayson was somewhat baffled

when he saw the opponent's

formation. They not only had the numbers but they were also carrying the most advanced guns. "F*ck, there are so many of them

Chapter 2344

Chapter 2344

"Raise your hand and surrender, Robert Ares. We'll even spare your life," the leader stepped forward and shouted at him.

Robert asked, "What the hell are you chasing me for?"

"Tell us where Monster is!"

Baby Robbie's eyes shrank slightly. It seemed that the remaining members were still thinking of restoring the military intelligence division to its former glory. Since they were unable to locate Monster, they must have persuaded Thirteen to go back to take the role as division master.

As for Thirteen, her heart was constantly in a predicament and unstable, so she was brainwashed by them.

"Monster is dead," Robbie said to shatter their hopes.

"Then you shall die, Robert Ares."

When the gangsters picked up their guns, the Ghost members took the lead. They nimbly ran toward the gangsters and grabbed their hands. They looted a few guns from the opponent. The two sides proceeded to fight fiercely.

Robbie and the military intelligence division sisters did not stand idly by. They hated these people for ruining Roxie. Consumed by rage and hatred, they

were not merciful to their old colleagues.

It was just that the other party had too many people on their side and they were well prepared. Not to mention, they were also equipped with the most advanced weapons and had many hidden weapons that Robbie and the others could not defend against.

Very quickly, many of the Ghost members were injured.

However, at this moment, another taxi drove over and Whitney was urging the driver inside the vehicle. "Can you please drive faster, Mister? I'm about to have an anxiety attack."

When the driver saw the group fighting in front of him and heard the sound of guns, he almost pissed his pants out of fright. He parked the car by the side of the road and said to Whitney, "Girlie, I don't have the guts to drive over there. I'll drop you off here and wish you the best of luck."

Whitney yelled at him, "You have to send me all the way there!"

The driver repeatedly begged for mercy. "Lady, I don't even need the fare anymore. Please hurry up and get down. I don't dare to intervene in your fights."

Whitney sighed and got out of the car. Then, she leaped high in the sky and landed in the battle zone between Ghost members and the gangsters. "Move aside, everyone!"

Following Whitney's roar, flying needles fell from the sky. Baby Robbie and his sisters hurriedly jumped out of the surrounding area. Many of the gangsters were struck by the silver needles and yelled disdainfully," Hmph! Such petty little tricks!"

Nonetheless, the next moment, they found that they were paralyzed by the poison on the silver needles. Their bodies instantly turned stiff.

It was just that Whitney's falling

needles that filled the expanse of the

sky could not discern between the

good guys and the bad, so they

struck a few of the Ghost members

as well.

Storm sighed repeatedly. "What is this? This move is powerful but it can't distinguish the good guys from the bad. It needs further improvement!" Whitney smiled and said, "I'll fix you up later."

Storm was very helpless from staying frozen in place.

Due to Whitney's arrival, the combat power of both parties dropped sharply at the same time.

Meanwhile, Jay and Jenson were sitting in their Rolls-Royce. When Sir Ares witnessed this scene, he frowned unconsciously.

If the girl was on the gangsters' side, the Ghost members might have encountered a huge danger.

As soon as Sir Ares was about to get out of the car to help, Jenson suddenly stopped him. "Don't worry, Daddy. Robbie's safe now."

Jay sat back on the seat, and then

he saw Whitney walking around the gangsters. Her acupuncture hand wasso magical that many of the gangsters could barely move.

Moreover, Robbie and the girls were punching and kicking the gangsters out of resentment.

Although there were many gangsters, they were gradually at a disadvantage.

Sir Ares looked at Whitney and asked curiously," Who's that girl?"

Jenson's expression looked slightly embarrassed, and he smiled without saying a word.

"Jens?" Jay could sense intuitively that Jenson knew the girl.

Chapter 2345

Chapter 2345

Under Daddy's clever eyes, Jenson said helplessly," Her name's Whitney Cornelius."

Sir Ares looked at Jenson, and he noticed that when his son mentioned Whitney, the ice in his eyes melted away. Sir Ares frowned while asking, "You seem to know her?"

Jens nodded silently in response.

Seeing that Jens was replying as though he was confessing under pressure, Sir Ares was a little distressed.

"How did you meet? When did you meet? How close are you?" Sir Ares asked a series of torturous questions.

Jenson felt utterly helpless. He raised his head to act pampered with Sir Ares. "I'd like some privacy of my own too, Daddy."

Sir Ares was taken aback. He rubbed Jenson's head, showing the expression of a helpless old father. Then, he said, "Alright, then. You're all grown up now and have your own secrets. Daddy respects you. But..."

Sir Ares paused and then cast his eyes on Whitney again.

The young woman was pretty with delicate features. Her face was akin to a bright moon, crafty and lovely.

Not to mention, her martial arts were particularly superb even when she was standing next to Baby Robbie. Her heroic spirit was no less brave than a man's.

"She's not bad. Your mommy will love her."

Jens was dumbfounded at his dad's words. It felt like he had an ulterior motive.

Jens could only counter his words with more tricks, saying, "Daddy, Mommy would love anyone as long as it's a girl."

Sir Ares could not help but chuckle.

It was true that Angeline loved children and had a natural affection for them. It seemed as if they glowed in her eyes.

However, Sir Ares was boasting about his all-seeing mind. He said, "This girl's different."

While Sir Ares and Jens were chatting, the fierce battle on the other side was already over. Whitney and Baby Robbie had knocked dozens of people to the ground. Meanwhile, all of the others fled, discarding their helmets and armor.

At this time, Sir Ares and Jens got out of the car.

They walked toward Whitney. When she noticed Jens, she looked over at Baby Robbie again.

She abruptly understood the slight difference between the brothers. Now, she could recognize Jens almost at a glance.

Whitney dashed over to Jens and cheered, "Jens!"

Jens' expression appeared distressed.

The next moment, Whitney pounced on Jens while he looked toward his dad uncomfortably.

Sir Ares looked at him in a stupefied manner as well.

With Jenson's cold personality, was it possible for him to have such a profound friendship with someone of the opposite sex?

Whitney said happily, "You actually

have a twin brother, Jens? Why didn't you tell me sooner? I kept mistaking Robbie as you and he barely batted an eyelid toward me. Do you know how miserable I was?

"Thank the heavens that you're you and he's him."

Everyone looked on as Whitney and Jens started being friendly with each other.

Sir Ares' complexion was very complicated. If it were Baby Robbie, whose character was loved by all and he was easily liked by girls, he would definitely put an end to this without hesitation.

After all, the boy was still young so he did not need to fall in love so early.

However, Jens was different. His character made it difficult for

anyone to get close to him. It must

have

Whitney a lot of effort for to make Jens treat her so differently.

Jay was afraid that if he were to break this couple up,

Jens' next chance at love might come rather late.

Just when Sir Ares was struggling and hesitating, Jens pulled Whitney down and explained to her, "This is my dad." Whitney was brimming with happiness as she bowed respectfully to Sir Ares while calling out to Jay charmingly, "Daddy!"

Jenson started coughing endlessly.

The people around him were dumbfounded.

However, just earlier, Whitney had used her full strength to protect each of them. They all had a good impression of her.

They all liked Whitney very much, so Jens and Whitney's relationship was well received.

Chapter 2346

Chapter 2346

Whitney's bright and beautiful shout of 'Daddy' stunned everyone. It also made everyone around look at Sir Ares while feeling antsy. Everyone was looking forward to Sir Ares' acceptance of Whiney as his ' daughter-in-law'.

Sir Ares clasped his hands behind his back. His elegant face looked rather amiable when he asked Whitney, "Why are you calling me 'Daddy'?"

Whitney looked at Jens shyly and said, "I like Jens."

Sir Ares's swift and sharp gaze swept toward Jens as he asked, "What's the progress of your relationship here? Did you tell her to say this or is she saying it on her own?"

Jens swallowed his saliva.

A relationship blockhead like him truly had no clue how to describe the pure connection he shared with Whitney.

Whitney volunteered to speak up, "Let me elaborate, Daddy. Jens doesn't speak much, and he's quite embarrassed to say anything in front of you, so it's more appropriate if I explain it. I can guarantee that I'll narrate the entire story to you systematically and in full detail without missing anything out."

Jens could only cover his face with one hand in shame.

Jay looked over toward Jenson who seemed incredibly embarrassed, then he turned his gaze back to Whitney before saying, "Then, come back to Tourmaline Estate with us."

Whitney jumped up with joy. "Thank you, Daddy!"

Soon, the police came over and cleared out the group of gangsters.

Jay took the children back to Chateau de Selene in Tourmaline Estate. Meanwhile, Angeline was holding onto Angel's hand. They had been waiting at the door for a long time.

When Angeline saw Baby Robbie coming back with Roxie on his back, her expression instantly turned anxious.

"What's the matter with our silly Six?"

Roxie's face was very pale and weak. When she saw Angeline, she still tried to squeeze out a smile, trying to make it seem like she was filled with energy. "I'm fine, Mommy. It's just a small injury." Angeline noticed that Roxie's face was flushed. She stretched out her hand to touch Roxie's forehead. She found that Roxie's body temperature was slightly higher. Angeline knew that her injury was definitely not minor.

"Send Six back to her room immediately, Baby Robbie. Jens, call your sister a doctor."

Jens was just about to leave when he glanced at

Whitney somewhat worriedly. His small action was noticed by Angeline. She could immediately tell there was something friendly going on between the two.

"And who's this young lady?" Angeline asked.

Baby Robbie chimed in, "She's an instructor in our military academy, Mommy. She has also saved my life several times now."

Angeline looked at Whitney in awe. After all, if she was someone who could save Baby Robbie, then her martial arts skills would definitely not be below Robbie's. "Oh my, thank you so much." Angeline was bursting with gratitude.

Instead, Whitney called out to her sweetly, "It's something I should be doing, Mommy."

Angeline was dumbfounded.

On the other hand, Jenson shrunk his neck and started sneaking away.

Angeline smiled at her knowingly and said, "Come in. We'll talk more inside."

Angeline first settled Roxie down. Baby Robbie regretfully lamented to Angeline. "It's all my fault, Mommy. I didn't protect Sis Six and she got

2 from saving me."

Angeline said, "You're a boy, Baby Robbie. A boy should grow into a verdant pine tree like Daddy to shelter others from wind and rain. You shouldn't be a burden to your sisters."

Baby Robbie's eyes were red. After being criticized by his mother, he felt extremely stifled and as though he was completely useless.

Roxie still tried her best to put in

good words for him." Don't blame Baby Robbie, Mommy. The gangsters were too cunning and there were too many of them. I was the one lacking in skills."

Angelina was sorrowfully tending to Roxie's leg injury. She said with tearful eyes, "Don't keep defending Robbie, Roxie. Since such a mishap has happened, he should be reflecting on it."

Hence, Baby Robbie walked away desolately.

He suddenly had a realization after Angelina's criticism.

Chapter 2347

Chapter 2347

As the only male from the military intelligence division, Baby Robbie had rashly sent out troops without knowing the opponent's strength. That decision was indeed reckless and impulsive of him. This incident could be regarded as a reminder for Baby Robbie so that he would be more calm-headed in the future.

After Roxie had fallen asleep, Angeline headed downstairs again.

The sisters, including Whitney, were waiting for her in silence. Angeline no longer criticized them and merely chatted with the children.

However, the last topic of discussion was still focused on Whitney.

"Come over here, Whitty." Angeline waved toward Whitney.

Whitney timidly walked toward Angeline. At this moment, she was drenched in a cold sweat. All she was thinking about was how Jens had mentioned that if he were to seek a wife, the woman must first gain approval from his mother.

The sisters sensed Whitney's nervousness. All of them held back their laughter. They then slandered her in their hearts, 'Ms. Cornelius has always been the one they called fierce tigress, but she seemed to be terrified in the face of our gentle mommy.'

Whitney walked over to Angeline, and Angeline pulled her over to sit next to her. Then, she asked, "Why did you call me 'Mommy'?"

"It's because I like Jens," said Whitney nervously.

Angeline was slightly taken aback.

There was a glimpse of surprise in her eyes. She thought that her flirty and lovable Baby Robbie would be the one who would start dating first. She never expected Jens to be ahead of him.

When Angeline grew silent, Whitney was growing worried that Angeline would oppose their relationship. She stood up in a stirred-up manner and very sincerely tried to speak up for herself, "Don't worry, Mommy. I truly do love Jens. I know that Jens is very excellent, so I diligently practiced feminine arts in recent years. I did it in hopes that I can be worthy of Jens."

Angeline started wondering. "Why were you practicing feminine arts?"

Were there any girls nowadays who would learn feminine arts?

Whitney said, "Jens told me that he would date me if I learned more girly things."

Angeline almost choked on her saliva. This was clearly Jens' little trick to mess with Whitney.

"How long did you practice feminine arts?" Angeline started asking restlessly.

"Three years!" Whitney raised up three fingers playfully.

Angeline almost fainted from anger.

Three whole years? Those three years were so important for a girl.

Angeline suddenly trembled in anger and said to the sisters, "Bring that boy to me now. That stinking bratis capable of something so immoral? I've always thought he was stable and reliable, but he's actually a troublemaker!"

When Whitney saw that Mommy was angry, she was so frightened that she could barely breathe. Then, Whitney whispered to comfort Angeline "Don't be angry, Mommy It's not Jens' fault. Truthfully, I was hot headed and it's good that learned feminine arts. Even my daddy said that after learning needlework, I've become much calmer and I should be grateful to Jens."

Angeline merely regarded this as an excuse Whitney was making for Jens.

After Jens got home, the other sisters shot meaningful glances toward him.

Jens had a bad feeling about this. He walked over to Angeline while trembling. "Mommy," he called out to her respectfully.

Angeline raised her hand, and a touch of anxiety flashed across Jens' eyes.

Unexpectedly, Whitney suddenly dashed toward Jens. Angeline's hand fell on Whitney's back instead. "Don't hit Jens anymore, Mommy," Whitney begged.

When Angeline saw that Whitney was protecting Jens in this manner, she became even fonder of her.

However, seeing that Jens was not cherishing such a gentle and considerate Whitney, Angeline felt even angrier.

"Step aside, Whitty. I won't hit him again," said Angeline.

Only then did Whitney get out of the way.

Jens aggrievedly said, "What did I do, Mommy? Why'd you try to

+

beng?" distinguishing right from e

Angeline asked, "What did you do to Whitney?"

Chapter 2348

Chapter 2348

Jens shot a condemning glance at Whitney, who looked like a kid who made a mistake. Then, she quickly explained to Jens, "I'm sorry, Jens. I told Mommy that you fooled me into learning feminine arts and Mommy got extremely upset."

Upon understanding things better, Jens sighed inwardly.

Angeline glared at Jens with deep resentment and reprimanded him, "How can you be so foolish? How important those three years were for Whitty? But you let her fritter away three years of her life?" Jens said to Sis Five, "Will you take them down first, Five? I have something I'd like to talk about to Mommy alone."

Five had a clear understanding of the current circumstances and said, "Sure."

When the sisters were leaving, they dragged Whitney away as well.

Whitney continuously turned around after each step. She was reluctant to leave Jens alone.

Once the sisters left, Jens held onto Angeline and explained in a good manner, "Don't be angry, Mommy. Even if you want to hit me, you must first ask why I did what I did."

Angeline was planning on smacking Jens to show Whitney that she was on her side. Now that Whitney was not around, Angelina's expression toward Jens became more amiable as well. "Tell me, why did you do it? How could you do such a thing?"

Jens said, "There are things you have no idea about, Mommy. Whitty is a friend I met when I was still back in Legendary Youth Academy. She was hot-headed, self-absorbed in martial arts, and was impulsive with all of her thoughts. I was just worried that she would suffer after coming out of that bubble and into the real world, so I tricked her into studying feminine arts to fix her temper."

Angeline looked at Jens dubiously and said, "Why do I feel like that's not entirely true? Jens, you've always been cold and never stuck your nose up in other people's business. Why did you care so much about her?"

Jens looked rather embarrassed now and he did not know how to explain it.

Angeline seemed to have noticed the hints and asked, "What's your relationship with her, Jens?"

Jens opened his mouth several times but was too embarrassed to say it out loud.

"You're not telling me? Fine, I'll go and ask Whitney about it, then." Angeline stood up and was about to leave.

Jens was afraid that Whitney's explanation would be too vague and cause even more misunderstandings. Hence, he quickly said, "I like her, Mommy."

Angeline's jaw was wide open from shock.

"You're dating? So young?" There was an unexplainable feeling in her heart.

Ever since witnessing Baby Zetty's suffering from falling in love so young, Angeline started thinking that Sir Ares' point of view was proper The children were immature, so they still facked the ability to deal with puppy love.

Hence, she also agreed that the children should fall in love later in life.

Unexpectedly, the Ares children were getting into puppy love one after another.

Angeline started getting a headache.

"When did this happen?"

Jens merely said the truth, "Mommy, Whitney was the one who took care of me all those years I spent in Legendary Youth. She's older and took great consideration of me, so I started adoring her."

Angeline knew her son well. It was impossible for a person like Jens to be easily enamored by a girl. He merely said that he liked Whitney, but Angeline was afraid that he was already taking on the burden as a

man.

The truth could be that Whitney was the one pursuing Jens.

However, if Whitney was the one pestering Jens again and again, Jens would certainly not budge because of it. Was Savannah not a clear example of this?

For Whitney to be able to move Jens emotionally, she must be someone exceptional to him.

"What do you like about her?" Angeline asked.

Jens told her like it was. "She gave

me a beam of light when I was most anxious. She went against her father's rule and secretly taught me their family's secrets. That was the only reason why I could leave Legendary Youth Academy in just three years."

Angeline was stunned. She did not expect that even though Jens and Whitney met at such a young age, their relationship did not fade away even after a few years had passed. It was aging like a fine wine instead, becoming stronger and more potent in each passing year. Hence, Angeline knew that this relationship was something unstoppable.

 

Chapter 2349

Chapter 2349

When faced with Jens' frankness, Angeline sighed in a melancholic manner. Everyone's first impression was always the strongest. Angeline had a favorable impression of Savannah as well.

If both Savannah and Whitney liked Jens, and Jens could only choose between one of the two, it would simply be heartbreaking.

As an enlightened mother, Angeline could only revert this issue back to her son. "Don't hurt Savannah, Jens."

Jens proceeded to sigh weakly.

How could the person not chosen remain unharmed in this situation? He truly had no clue how to preserve Savannah's self-esteem.

"I'll do my best," said Jens.

After Jens was done with his talk with Angeline, he walked out of the living hall. Whitney looked over at Jens guiltily and said, "Did I stir up trouble for you, Jens?"

Jens nodded. "Well, I had to face it sooner or later."

Whitney suddenly smiled brightly because of his words and said, "Rest assured, Jens. I'll compensate you well in the future."

Jens asked her mischievously, "How are you going to compensate me?"

"I'll listen to anything you have to say from now on."

Jens was somewhat flattered. Would an untamed girl like Whitney become his gentle lady?

Jens said, "If I ask you to walk east... does that mean you won't head west?"

Whitney nodded at him. "There's not even going to be a direction called west anymore in my dictionary."

"I love home-cooked meals, but you love fast food. What should we do about that?"

Whitney said, "I'll prepare all the cooking utensils and buy all the ingredients. I'll learn to cook all kinds of food for you. Believe me, Jens. I can surely take great care of you." Jens could not help but laugh. He stretched his hand out, and Whitney took it while the two beamed with joy.

It was the joy of being reunited after so long.

Unexpectedly the door behind them suddenly opened wide with Angeline standing in an imposing yet elegant manner. She reprimanded Jens, "You brat. Girlfriends are for you to spoil She's not your nanny. You'll head to the kitchen tomorrow and learn to flip some hamburgers. You'll be cooking for Whitty in the future."

Jens was dumbfounded at this.

Whitney tried comforting Jens by saying, "It's alright,

Jens. I can quit fast food for you."

Angeline was petrified by this.

She was spoiled by Sir Ares growing up, so subconsciously, she thought that her son would be more like his dad who would prop up the entire sky for his wife.

Unexpectedly, Whitney was the one

spoiling Jens in such a manner. Angeline had no option but to say, Fine. Jens, take Whitty out for a trip around the city these few days so that she can adapt to life in Imperial Capital as soon as possible."

Jens replied, "Yes, Mommy."

Then, he took Whitney's hand and walked away.

As soon as Jens stepped out, Sir Ares stepped in.

He wrapped his hands around Angelina's slender waist and said with a smile, "Angeline, our children have their own lives. You should worry tess about them. Plus, you haven't been worried about me for a

long time now."

Angeline looked at the handsome Sir Ares and smiled as she said, "What's there to worry about you?"

Sir Ares pressed the back of her head over to lean on his chest and kissed Angeline's forehead. Then, he said, "You haven't had a good chat with me for a long time now." Angeline said, "Don't we talk every day?"

"Silly goose. If you're not talking about Josie or Zayne, then you'd be talking about the children. You never talk about me," Sir Ares said bitterly.

When he mentioned Josie, Angeline's attention was diverted again. "Are Zayne and Josie showing any sign of reconciliation?"

Sir Ares was vexed and lifted her chin domineeringly. He bent down and kissed her before saying, "Stop talking and kiss me." Angeline smiled at him.

Then, she held onto his face and gave him a lingering kiss.

Chapter 2350

Zayne and Josie had not seen each other for a long time.

It was not that Zayne did not want to see Josie. It was just that every time he went over to Josie's Flying Moon Cottage, she would refuse to open the door.

Zayne felt rather proud and angry at first. However, after quite some time, Zayne started to get over it. In any case, he was going to dedicate his entire life to Josie now, so even if she ignored him, he would simply work harder to try and enter her life again.

He had become very open-minded. He deceived himself while comforting himself that every couple had a different method of getting along. He thought that he and Josie were destined to end up this way, where she would be the one doing the chasing in the first half of their lives while he would be pursuing her in the second half of their lives.

When Angeline and Sir Ares came to Flying Moon Cottage to visit Josie hand in hand, they noticed Zayne sweating profusely while holding onto a few cartons of milk. He sat on the steps in front of the house while gasping for breath.

Angeline naturally felt sorry for her own brother, but she knew that her brother had made a mistake. If she forgave him so easily, Josie would feel even more heartbroken.

When Zayne saw Sir Ares and Angeline, his eyes fell on Sir Ares' hand that was holding Angeline's tiny hand. He suddenly yearned for a lasting love like Jay and Angeline.

"Aren't you people tired of showing off your love all day, every day?" Zayne asked.

Jay answered, "I'm extremely busy in my spare time. If I can, I wish to spend all of my spare time with my wife."

Zayne argued. "Sigh. I finally know where it went wrong with me and Josie. It's because you and I are the opposite. We got sick from being together 24 hours a day. At the time, I was wishing that I had the spare time to go out and work."

Angeline scoffed. "What about now? Do you regret not cherishing the moments you had together?"

Zayne begged Angeline with a bitter expression, "My dearest sister, will you please help me in persuading Josie? I truly know that I was in the wrong now."

Angeline asked, "What did you do wrong?"

Zayne replied, "I was wrong in every possible way. I wasn't like Jay, who felt a sense of responsibility toward his family. And I wasn't like him who loved and cherished his wife. You were right. It was unfortunate for Josie to have chosen me."

When Angeline saw that he finally repented, her eyes flushed red as well. She cursed at him in a low voice, "If you had known it would come to this, you would've thought twice before doing it, wouldn't you? "Zayne, since you know that you're in the wrong now, you should properly acknowledge your mistakes to Josie. Let her see the determination and perseverance you have. You must work hard to compensate for everything for Josie and fix the heartbreak you caused her," said Angeline.

Zayne

and sighed." Well, it's

Angeline said, "Don't be discouraged. You have to take it slow."

Zayne regained his confidence and comforted himself by saying, "It's alright. I'll be pursuing her from now on."

Angeline felt slightly relieved by this.

Jay looked at the shut main door, then glanced over at the worried Angeline. He was pitying his wife, and he did not want her to be filled with anxiety because of Zayne Hence, Jay no longer cared about his former perseverance. He went forth to call out to Josie.

"Josie?"

Upon hearing Sir Ares' voice, Josie immediately opened the door.

When Zayne saw Josie, he sprang up and squeezed himself into the door while holding the milk like a

monkey.

"Jose!" He chased after her, trying to say something. However, she promptly ignored him with a blank look on her face.

Zayne took out a stem of rose from

his arms and knelt in front of Jose. He said, "was wrong, Jose. Give me

a chase to pursue you again. I promise that for the rest of my life, I'll never let you suffer any grievances ever again.

Josie was unfazed by this.

Zayne changed his target and started reaching out to Joseph instead. "Gome here and give Daddy a hug,

H son.

When Joseph saw Zayne, he widened his arms joyfully and leaped toward him.

Zayne said, "While Daddy's not at home these days, you have to listen to your Mommy."
