Ch. 51..60
Chapter 51
'He sounds exactly like Rose! I can't believe Rose would plant these sorts of ideas into his head!
'Rose is nothing short of a horrible woman.'
"Who told you that?" Jay said, his temper rising slightly.
When Jenson saw the furious look on Daddy's face, he stopped talking because he knew Daddy would only get angrier.
Jay mistakenly pinned the fault on Rose.
The next day, Nancy came to Jenson's house as scheduled. She brought many gifts and clothes for Jenson.
"Thank you, Miss Nancy," Jay said politely.
"Jay, you're too kind," Nancy purred. "Jenson's so cute.
Of course, it's my pleasure to take care of him."
Jenson sat down next to Jay sullenly, his gaze landing on the pile of luxury clothing Nancy bought for him...
When Nancy saw him staring, she quickly asked Jenson, "Jens, do you like the clothes I bought for you?"
Jenson remembered the simple and comfortable t-shirts in Baby Robbie's closet, as well as the colorful patterns on the clothes. Although those articles of
clothing were more on the wallet-friendly side, he felt more comfortable in them after wearing them for those two days. As he eyed the pile of luxury clothing with complicated designs, he frowned and shook his head.
Immediately, Nancy looked dejected and looked at Jay awkwardly. Jay stared suspiciously at Jenson. "Don't you always wear this style of clothes?"
Jenson said bluntly, "I don't like them."
Jay assumed that Jenson was prejudiced against Nancy so he decided to take it out on the clothes.
Although he loved Jenson, he was very dissatisfied with Jenson's rude behavior and his ignorance of other people's kindness.
Jay's face immediately sank, "Jenson," he said severely, "you shouldn't treat people who are kind to you with this attitude."
Jenson felt betrayed. 'Daddy must think I was lying on purpose.'
Nancy hurried to diffuse the tension. "It's okay. If Jens doesn't like these clothes, I'll buy you a different kind next time. But could you tell me what kind of clothes you like?"
When Nancy spoke, there was a twisted smile on her face.
She was sure that Jenson could not express what kind of clothing he liked; she would be able to prove that he was deliberately embarrassing her. She wanted to expose to Jay just how scheming Jenson was so that Jay would cease to be partial toward the boy in the future.
Jenson lowered his head and said nothing.
Jay's handsome brows furrowed and he was about to lose his temper, but Jenson suddenly raised his head and blurted, "Smart Baby Tiger!"
Nancy's face crumpled in an instant-she did not expect Jenson to actually announce a favorite clothing brand. 1
However, the quick-witted Nancy did not rule out that Jenson might simply be fooling her. After all, she had never heard of that clothing brand.
Nancy asked shamelessly, "Jens, is Smart Baby Tiger really a clothing brand?"
"Yeah." Jenson nodded.
Nancy immediately whipped out her phone and searched for it.
Jay looked at Jenson in disbelief. "You never used to care about what brands of clothes you wore!"
Jenson did not say anything, his clear eyes just gazed at Daddy innocently.
Chapter 52
Chapter 52
Jenson simply had never worn clothes as cool and comfortable as Smart Baby Tiger before this.
After Nancy searched for Smart Baby Tiger's clothing, she handed her phone to Jay. When Jay saw the colorful children's clothing, he frowned. "Since when were you into this type of clothes? They're so garish!"
Jenson felt wronged. "I'm just a kid!" he said hotly.
Jay noted the clothing price tags that ranged from tens to hundreds of yuan. He looked suspiciously at Jenson. "Are you sure you want to wear such cheap clothes?"
Jenson nodded. He just wanted to wear clothes that cost the same as Baby Robbie's so that he would feel better.
Jay sighed with a contemptuous look on his face." Daddy has never bought clothes online."
Jenson retorted cheekily, "They're not for you."
Jay eyed Jenson. For as long as Jenson had been maturing, this was the first time he was so persistent about fighting for something he wanted.
Jay chose to compromise and tossed the phone toward Jenson. "Add everything you like into the cart, Daddy will pay for it."
Jenson took the phone over and picked out his
clothes enthusiastically. He added everything in Baby Robbie's wardrobe into the shopping cart.
When Jay saw the shopping cart filled to the brim, his face darkened. He secretly cursed Rose for cheapening Jenson's taste.
Perhaps it was because it was the weekend, or perhaps it was because "Jenson" acted normal for the first time in the past two days, Aunt Josephine suddenly thought about him and decided to invite herself over to the house.
When she pushed open the door and saw Nancy, Josephine laughed awkwardly. "Hehe. Sorry to intrude."
Jay shot a look at her sister with his lips twitching slightly. "Didn't you vow that you would never step foot into this house?" 1
Josephine pointed at Jenson and said solemnly," Jenson's autism is gone so my oath had also gone with the wind!"
The two were former enemies who fought whenever they met. That was why Josephine made the bold statement. She vowed to never step foot into Horizon Colors for the rest of her life unless it was absolutely necessary.
Obviously, Josephine did not know that Jenson had reverted into his former cold self. Otherwise, she would have never gone to the house, voluntarily searching for abuse.
"Jenson, Aunt Josephine came here to play with you," Jay said.
Jenson glanced at Josephine bitterly. "No." He refused flatly with a single word.
Josephine ran over to him and rubbed Jenson's face with both of her hands, a wide grin on her face." Jenson, didn't you say that you like playing with your aunt that day? Let's go and play some chess." She dragged the reluctant Jenson upstairs into his room.
When Jenson arrived at his room, he opened the door but quickly slammed it shut with Josephine still outside his room.
The door knocked onto Josephine's head and a bruise formed on her forehead. She let out a terrible howl and cried, "Jenson, you evil demon. You disfigured your aunt's face! I won't let you get away with it." Jenson said coldly from the inside, "You don't need your looks to get by." 1
"I want to be an actor! Of course, I need my looks! How else do you think I earn money?" Josephine shrieked angrily.
"Trust-fund baby!" Jenson yelled back.
Josephine was so angry that she almost lost her breath. "Did you just call me a trust-fund baby? What about you? You're dependent on your old man too..." 1
"Daddy's not old," Jenson said. Josephine was completely stifled.
Chapter 53
Chapter 53
Josephine stormed downstairs with her hand over her bruised forehead. She walked toward Jay and cried pretentiously, "Jay, your son just bullied me and you're not going to do anything about it?" Jay observed Josephine silently...
"You knew that he doesn't like you touching him," he said stiffly, "yet you continued to provoke him. You brought it upon yourself."
Josephine felt immensely aggrieved. "Well, I thought he got better. That's the only reason I came over to offer to look after him. I didn't know he was going to act out again."
Jay's handsome face darkened slightly. "Jenson's not sick."
Josephine said in a hushed voice, "You know very well whether he's sick or not. Jay, may I remind you that the original Jenson was cold and arrogant?
You've seen him with your own eyes that day when you brought him over to our house, he was like a completely different person! Lively, cheerful, gentle, and polite. I originally thought his mother had cured his autism but it seems like the situation has only gotten worse. Jenson jumps from being silent and antisocial to being an enthusiastic chatterbox. I'd even suspect he's schizophrenic!" 2
A dark shadow spread across Jay's handsome face.
"Jay, get a psychiatrist in Grand Asia Hospital to check Jenson out," Josephine urged him. "You shouldn't delay treatment for your child."
Jay rubbed the space between his eyebrows and fell into deep thought.
'Josephine's right. Jens has been acting very strangely these past few days.'
Nancy read the atmosphere and rushed to comfort Jay. "Jay, don't worry. It's normal for a child's mood to be unstable. Your sister's just confused because she's concerned about him."
Suddenly, Jenson ran down from the second floor. When Josephine saw Jenson, she recoiled like she saw her archenemy. "Jenson, I'll go back home immediately, okay?" she said hurriedly. "I'm afraid of you so you don't have to bother sending me off. Just go back upstairs!" With that, she bolted out of the house in fear.
"Josephine!" Jenson suddenly called out to her.
Josephine nearly slipped and fell. She looked back at Jenson and snapped, "Call me Aunt Josephine. Show some respect."
Jenson said blandly, "Take me out to play."
Josephine theatrically dug her ears. "Did I hear that right? The mighty grandson asking me to go out and play?" 1
Even though Josephine was an adult, she still had the innocence of a child. Her biggest wish was to take the coolest and most handsome nephew in the entire universe out and show him off to her circle of friends until they exploded from envy.
However, Jenson was a cold child who never got along with her. He mostly refused to take pictures with her and during the rare times that he did, he would only offer the camera lens a cold death-stare. That usually gave people the impression that she was a child trafficker.
As such, it felt like the world had been overturned when Jenson requested her to take him out to play. Josephine could not help but feel that it was too sudden and too good to be true.
Jay stared at Jenson in amazement but his eyes were filled with doubt.
"Jenson, are you sure you want to hang out with your aunt?" Jay asked skeptically.
Jenson nodded.
"
"Do you promise to not quarrel, fight or hurt your aunt?" Jay pressed.
Jenson's eyed Josephine with a resentful look. "If she doesn't touch me or speak to me, I promise I won't," he said coolly.
Josephine protested, "I'm your aunt, not a puppet. I'm not mute either. I don't care whether you want to go or
not. It's your choice."
To everyone's surprise, Jenson walked toward Josephine silently.
Josephine's striking eyes widened in shock. "Yo, Jenson, do you have a fever? You want to go out with your aunt despite what I said?"
Chapter 54
Chapter 54
Jenson stared at her coldly and forced a curt nod.
Josephine happily hugged Jenson and cheered," Jenson, you've changed. You've become cuter and cuter. I take back everything I said, you don't have autism or schizophrenia. You're the cutest kid in the entire world."
A disgusted look appeared on Jenson's handsome face.
"Jay, we're going to leave now."
"Come back early," Jay said, still unsure.
Josephine led Jenson out of the villa and into her red supercar. The enchanting young aunt felt like she was living a dream where her wishes came true.
Jenson's cold drawl interrupted her daydream. "I want to go to the amusement park."
Josephine's bright smile instantly froze. "Why?"
Obviously, she was the elder here. Why should a little kid like Jenson tell her where to go?
"Jenson, I need to go to the movie production house first," Josephine replied, smiling. She had secretly made up her mind to trick Jenson to go to the production house no matter what. She was determined for those big players in the industry to see Jenson's natural movie-star face. Perhaps Jenson
might even get a kickstart on his acting career and pull the rug beneath the rest of the current ambassadors.
Jenson stared at Josephine and spat out two words," Human trafficker!"
Josephine stared at the little guy who had clearly seen through her intentions. "Wow, this kid's smart."
Jenson was seated in the passenger seat when Josephine poked his head with her finger.
Jenson insisted, "Go to the amusement park."
Josephine matched his stubbornness. She turned the steering wheel forcefully. "No, I won't go to the amusement park."
Jenson rolled down the window. "Then I'll jump out."
Josephine instantly went as pale as a ghost. With a quick slam of the brake, the supercar did a gorgeous drift and screeched to a halt.
Josephine was terribly frightened. She got out of the car and pulled Jenson out to scold him. "You scared me to death, you know that? If something bad happened just now, what am I supposed to tell your Daddy?"
Jenson yelled angrily, "Take me to the amusement park!"
Josephine said exasperatedly, "You want to go to the amusement park but your aunt needs to go to the production house. Can't you compromise a little?"
Jenson said, "I made an appointment with someone and I'm not about to go against my word."
Josephine stared at Jenson; it was the first time she had ever heard him make plans with a friend.
"Jenson, who is this person?" Josephine had a nickname-The Excavator! Her specialty was digging up gossip and scandals of others.
Jenson snorted coldly, "Nosy hag." After that, he turned and ran to the alley between some buildings opposite them, i
Josephine tensed up. "Is he trying to get rid of me?"
Josephine was about to chase after him when she realized that her sports car was still parked by the roadside.
Josephine hesitated, then her eyes gleamed. "Hey kiddo," she called out, "I'm going to give up my sports car if it means I get to dig up your little secret." With that, she hurried after Jenson.
Chapter 55
Chapter 55
After Jenson shrugged off Josephine, he jogged to the amusement park.
The person who had invited him to the amusement park was Baby Robbie. The two brothers were very much in-sync and even wore the same clothes. These were the few they had in the same style-a black Adidas t-shirt, white pants and sneakers. The difference was that Baby Robbie wore a hip hop-style duckbill hat.
"Jen-" Baby Robbie had spotted Jenson from afar and was just about to call out to him, but he then noticed a shifty woman following behind him.
The woman held a large straw hat in her hands and hid her entire head with it. She wore a bright red dress and kept a distance of about five meters from Jenson, using everything around to cover and hide. 1 Baby Robbie held up his smartwatch and sent a text to Jenson. "You're being followed by a woman in red."
Jenson did not even have to turn his head to know this woman was his neurotic aunt.
"It's Josephine Ares," Jenson replied Baby Robbie.
Baby Robbie smiled slyly and sent him a voice message. "Jenson, didn't you say she's always bullying you? Want me to help you take revenge?"
The corners of Jenson's lips lifted slightly. "Okay!" "Then find a place to hide. I'll make my move at once."
After Jenson received Baby Robbie's message, he headed for the restroom toward the side. Josephine was afraid she would lose Jenson, so she had to run to somewhere near the bathroom to stop him. However, Jenson did not come back out for ages. The people who entered and exited the men's room came and went, all deliberating Josephine with a weird look in their eyes.
During these times, Josephine used the hat to cover her face, hating Jenson so much her heart itched.
"Aunt Josephine." Suddenly, Baby Robbie popped up from the side. An overenthusiastic smile brimmed his face. 2
Josephine was transfixed. She had never seen Jenson smile so brilliantly. She had not realized Jenson would be so cute and handsome when he smiled.
But how could Jenson, who had given her a dirty look earlier, suddenly change his tune in the next instant and become so cute and adorable? Josephine felt a chill down her back. Could it be that this child was really schizophrenic?
"Jenson, is the friend you came to the amusement park to meet not here?" Josephine asked carefully, afraid she would touch on this little prince's easily-triggered nerves. Baby Robbie revealed a row of straight white little teeth, grinning as he said, "Aunt Josephine, my friend is at the carousel. Do you want to go say hi?"
Josephine said very loyally, "It's rare that you made a friend, Jenson. I'll give you some face and go meet your friend!"
Baby Robbie then turned and ran like the wind, calling, "Aunt Josephine, you'd better hurry up then."
When Josephine walked close to the carousel, she noticed "Jenson" had disappeared. Josephine opened her mouth and yelled, "Jenson, where are you?"
Ages later, Jenson appeared suddenly before her like a ghost, looking at her with great bitterness and grudge. "You lost me." These three words popped out through gritted teeth. Josephine's jaw nearly fell to the floor. The Jenson just now had smiled at her and talked so much. How could he return to this ghost-frightening appearance in the blink of an eye? "Jenson, you can't really be schizophrenic, right?" Josephine stepped up and attempted to pat her nephew's head, but Jenson very disgustedly dodged her claws, giving her a death glare as well. Josephine gripped her aching head and wailed," Heavens, just what sins have our Ares household committed? Why must my Jenson be treated this way?"
"You're crazy." Jenson turned and left.
Josephine lost her strength and collapsed onto the bench beside her. She pulled out her phone and called Jay, crying.
"Brother!"
On the other side of the phone, the corners of Jay's eyes twitched slightly when he heard Josephine's howling sobs.
Chapter 56
Chapter 56
"What did Jenson do to you this time?"
"He didn't do anything to me!" Josephine truly did not know how to tell her older brother. She was afraid this terrible news would make his head spin.
Jay's thoughts remained in the past. "Then what did you do to him?"
Josephine said, "I didn't do anything to him either!"
Jay's handsome face clouded over. "Then what are you crying and howling for?"
Josephine's sobbing turned into wailing. "Brother, something happened to Jenson."
Jay said coolly, "Josephine, can you say everything in one go?"
Josephine wiped her tears. Her emotions of grief carried a hint of excitement as she said passionately," Big Brother, today Jenson sometimes treated me coldly without a care like a freezer in winter, then other times he would be as warm as the sun in June. When he was cold, he called me Josephine Ares and called me neurotic. When he was warm, he called me Aunt Josephine and even smiled at me. Big Brother, in just this short time, Jenson kept switching like this so many times. If he's just acting in front of me, he could win an Oscar."
Hearing Josephine's report, the palm holding Jay's phone started being beaded with cold sweat.
If this was the first time a situation like this happened, perhaps Jay would not have taken it seriously. However, two days ago, Jenson had behaved unusually in front of him too.
If Jenson had once again frequently showed two different personalities today, then he truly suspected Jenson had schizophrenia.
Jay stood up. When he next spoke, a chill slipped into his voice. "Where is Jenson now?"
Josephine cried out, "Oh, no. I don't know where he ran off to either."
"Where are you now?" Jay asked calmly.
"The amusement park."
"Amusement park?" Iciness shone from Jay's eyes.
Ever since Rose brought Jenson to the amusement park, the little guy had lingered over it?
Twenty minutes later, Jay appeared at the amusement park.
When Josephine saw Jay, she immediately started crying. "Big Brother, I'm sorry. I lost Jenson!"
"Go find him," Jay said coldly.
Nancy, who had come with him, then pulled him to the left to look whereas Josephine went to search the
right.
After Jenson and Baby Robbie had played around awhile, they decided to end this game and each return to their respective homes because they were worried they would worry Daddy and Mommy. Baby Robbie could not bear to be parted and said," Jenson, when can I next see you?"
"Anytime you contact me," Jenson answered.
"I'll be heading this way then."
"Mhm. I'll go this way."
The two children parted ways.
When Baby Robbie left the amusement park, he coincidentally met Josephine. "Aunt Josephine!" Baby Robbie waved at her.
When Josephine saw Baby Robbie, she rolled up her sleeves like she was about to beat him up. "You little brat, I nearly thought you went missing. Do you know how scared I was? Get over here. If I don't pummel you today, I'm not Josephine Ares."
Chapter 57
Chapter 57
Baby Robbie gave a sneaky smile. "If you want to spank me, then you'll have to see if you can catch me, won't you?"
After saying this, Baby Robbie dashed over. Josephine spread her arms wide, a disbelievingly menacing expression on her face. "I just don't believe I can't catch you."
Jenson usually did not like to exercise. Once winter came, he frequently caught respiratory diseases. This was why Josephine would so scorn his athletic ability and even gave him an unfriendly nickname: Sicky Chicky.
She did not know that the person she met today was not Jenson but Baby Robbie, who had been participating in Taekwondo training since he was little. His physical abilities and speed all surpassed those of the same age group, and he was unusually agile.
When Josephine extended her hand to block Baby Robbie, Baby Robbie kicked her arm away in a spin kick, then somersaulted through the air to land behind Josephine, where he slipped away like a fish. Seeing Baby Robbie so beautifully and nimbly execute these moves, she was so shocked her eyeballs could have fallen to the ground. "F*ck me, my Jenson is so cool?"
However, a different voice of reason sounded low in Josephine's head. "Jenson hasn't learned martial arts before. Normally, when he fights, he uses his mouth to bite. His body is weak too, so Grandpa and Grandma could not bear for the child to suffer in learning martial arts. There's no way this child could have so nimbly performed."
When Josephine turned around again, how could the shadow of Baby Robbie still be in the empty field of her vision?
"Jenson?" Josephine hastily chased after him.
After she went half a round, she did not catch Baby Robbie, but she met up with Jay and Nancy. However, Jay's hand tightly clutched Jenson's.
When Josephine saw Jenson, she mistook him for Baby Robbie. She shrugged her pained arm and huffily walked in front of Jenson, interrogating him." Jenson, I'm your biological aunt. How could you bear to kick me with so much force?"
Jenson rolled his eyes at her, his expression like he did not want to bother with her.
After Josephine finished speaking, she rolled her sleeve up and showed it to Jay. "Big Brother, see how ruthless this brat is? Treating his own aunt like an enemy who killed his father?"
Jay looked at the mess of bruises on Josephine's arm and furrowed his eyebrows. "You stumbled and knocked yourself around, which you're framing
Jenson for, aren't you?"
Josephine wanted to cry but could not summon the tears.
"Jay Ares, I swear I'm sincere. This injury really is caused by your little prince kicking me, though he indeed didn't scratch or bite me. It was a kick injury?"
Jay's face, like it was carved from ice, had a clear expression of disbelief.
Even Nancy stood at Jenson's side this time, very tactfully reminding Josephine, "Josephine, you said Jenson kicked you? How could this be? When Jenson kicked you, you would have raised your hand up. He can't kick so high, can he?"
Imitating Baby Robbie, Josephine made a sudden spin kick. Although this imitation was not exact, and she even staggered after finishing this move, it was still recognizable enough to let others see this was a spin kick of high difficulty in Taekwondo.
"He kicked me just like this?" Josephine finished her performance and stared very upset at Jay. 1
She had thought that after she put in the effort to perform it that she could get Jay's recognition. Who knew Jay would disbelieve her even more and say a little impatiently, "Josephine Ares, stop fooling around. Jenson is just a five-year-old kid. If you want to play a prank on him, it has to be appropriate.
Framing and blaming him, lying so much you could write an essay, will give Jenson a bad influence." 1
Josephine looked utterly helpless, then shouted," Brother, why don't you believe me? I'm telling the truth
"Jenson has never learned Taekwondo." Jay left, pulling Jenson with him.
Josephine lingered where she was.
Chapter 58
Chapter 58
Yes, she, too, felt it was mysterious. These few years while she had been overseas, she often had video calls with her family, yet she had never heard Jenson was training in martial arts. Moreover, when she came back home for winter and summer breaks, she had never seen Jenson go for training either.
Then what was that dexterous ability he had shown earlier?
Josephine thought hard over this as she walked, but she could not think of a reason no matter how she wracked her brain.
When Jay brought Jenson out of the amusement park, he saw a bunch of people surrounding a red supercar a t the entrance. Jay's face darkened instantly." Josephine Ares!"
Hearing Jay's fierce shout, Josephine jogged over.
When she saw her sports car was so carelessly left that it was covered with many fines, she cried without tears.
"How should I reprimand you? Wait till you get on the headlines tomorrow." Jay absolutely hated the high-profile, show-off appearance of his little sister as if she earnestly wished her face could be molded into gold.
Josephine actually felt very wronged. If she had not
been afraid she had lost Jenson, she would not have parked her car illegally.
She blamed Jenson for this debt.
Jay brought Jenson back to the Horizon villa. Nancy went back to the company as she had matters to attend to whereas Josephine followed Jenson, her bad intentions lingering. Jay questioned his sister, puzzled. "Josephine, aren't you scared Jenson will bite you?"
Josephine stuck her chest out and brought out the determination of a warrior who would cut his own wrist. "Big Brother, I'm telling you, Jenson has a secret. When I dig out his secret, then you have to believe what I said today. I really didn't speak a word o f untruth. He did kick me today, and his moves were very swift, the movement as smooth as flowing water- he very much had the air of a martial arts master!" "The more you say, the more outrageous it gets." Jay helplessly shook his head.
After he entered the house, Jay went into the kitchen.
Jay wore a white t-shirt. With his elegant head of thick, black hair, paired with his pale skin and imperturbable, double-folded phoenix eyes, he exuded an air of class that he had been born with. It made others distance themselves, not daring to get closer, as if he was a godly prince who did not consume human food.
Josephine stared distractedly at Jay. Big Brother had borne the pride and glory of the Ares family ever since he was born, growing up with the protection of all who were devoted him, and it was he who excelled so much it was like he was not a regular person. He lived days where he only had to reach his arms through his clothes and open his mouth to be fed ever since he was little.
Who could have thought then after he had Jenson, Big Brother would lay off all the nannies in the house because of Jenson's autism and take over all the housework, raising his child as both father and mother He truly was a peerlessly good man!
Josephine slid a deeply apprehensive glance at Jenson beside her, only to notice Jenson as using a similarly apprehensive glare to look at her.
"You can go now." Jenson very impolitely dismissed her.
Josephine stared at him. "Jenson, you backstabbing bastard. Tell your aunt honestly. Just who was the person you had a date with today? It's not your little girlfriend, is it?"
Jenson looked at her thin crimson lips opening and closing, willfully covering his ears. He said disgustedly, "So long-winded."
Josephine pulled Jenson's hands away. He did not want to listen, but she wanted him to. "Also, the thing about you knowing martial arts, I'll definitely
investigate till the truth comes out."
A flustered expression crossed Jenson's face.
Josephine saw it all clearly and strengthened the conviction in her heart. "I just know you're hiding some secret you can't tell anyone from your daddy. I'll definitely dig them out."
Chapter 59
Chapter 59
Jenson could not be bothered to acknowledge his aunt and squeezed into the kitchen to help his daddy.
Josephine found it dull and uninteresting, leaving hastily.
"Brother, I'm leaving. Remember to get a doctor to look at Jenson. Grand Asia's Dr. Xander Zachary is not bad." Josephine left after saying this.
Jay's expression cooled slightly. The doctor his sister recommended was a top expert in psychiatry. His heart very much rebelled getting Jenson in contact with psychiatry studies.
He subconsciously felt Jenson was the same as he was, only quiet and antisocial when he was little.
When he grew up and made a few friends who truly knew him, this type of personality would change for the better.
However, these few days, Jenson often switched between talkative activeness and silent moodiness. This struck Jay's alarm. He was afraid his own carelessness would lead to him letting slip the best period of treatment for Jenson. 1
During dinner, Jay made the decision to have an open and honest conversation with Jenson.
"Jenson, I'll get Dr. Zachary to come over tomorrow to check you out, okay?"
Jenson's reaction was very intense. He raised his head and protested, "I'm not sick."
Jay reasoned with him patiently, "Jenson, not treating illnesses isn't right!"
Jenson widened his eyes that were as deep as the sea as he stared at his daddy. He bit his lip and emphasized each and every word, "I'm-not-sick."
"Lately, you've been acting very unusually. You chatted with Grandpa and Grandma, and you were even willing to play chess with your aunt. You would never do these kinds of things in the past. "Jens, why?" Jay wanted to know the reason his son changed this way.
Jenson was slightly startled. The things Daddy talked about were probably what Baby Robbie did, were they not?
"I was in a good mood," Jenson said coolly.
Jenson thought carefully and remained close-lipped.
Jay spoke yet again. "And today at the amusement park, you went from smilingly calling Josephine 'Aunt Josephine' to coldly calling her crazy. Why would this be?"
Jenson wrinkled his eyebrows. He and Baby Robbie had exchanged places in front of Josephine today originally to prank her, but he never thought Josephine would make a mountain out of a molehill and sneakily telling tales to Daddy. It was too hateful.
Seeing Jenson bury his head and not say anything for a long time, Jay's heart grew inexplicably heavy. His large hand warmly held Jenson's hand, and he said," Jens, Daddy has decided. I'll ask Dr. Zachary to come over tomorrow."
Jenson dropped his head and sighed audibly.
He had been ruined by the scourge that was Josephine.
The next day.
Dr. Zachary arrived at the villa as agreed. Jay called him into the study, and the two of them talked privately. This was to avoid Jenson. They were afraid that if Jenson knew the content of their discussion, it would cause him to panic.
"Mr. Ares, according to the situation you've described, the possibility of Jenson having schizophrenia is very high. Of course, the final result would still need an instrument's monitoring to determine. I suggest you bring Jenson to Grand Asia for a check-"
Jay waved a hand at him. A somber expression appeared on his face that was as handsome as a Greek sculpture. "You're the authority in this aspect. Since you're so sure, I think Jenson must really have this disorder. Start a treatment regimen for him then." 2 Dr. Zachary nodded seriously. "Yes."
Chapter 60
Chapter 60
After Dr. Zachary left, Jenson ran into the study room. He pushed open the door to find Jay with his head in his hands, the appearance of one in severe pain.
Jenson had the answer in his heart.
"He said I'm sick too?" Jenson said angrily.
Jay lifted his gaze to see his son's face that was so shiningly handsome. A barely detectable hint of concealed worry appeared on his face.
He thought that it was perhaps Jenson was too perfect that the heavens would have to give him some challenge.
"Jenson, Dr. Zachary says your disorder is still in its early stages. As long as we actively cooperate, it will get better." Jay did not want to tell Jenson about this cruel matter, but he needed Jenson to cooperate with the coming treatment, so he had to accept this reality.
"Treating my life like it's grass to trample on," Jay said angrily through pursed lips.
Kay looked at the angrily upset face of Jenson and hardened his heart. The matter at hand this time was very serious. He could not bend to Jenson's whims.
"Daddy has decided. Resistance is futile." After Jay announced this unusually overbearingly, he got up and left.
On the other hand, Jenson fell into melancholy.
To Jenson, this weekend went by quite depressingly. Hence, when Monday came, Jenson unprecedentedly looked forward to going to school.
This was clearly a very good phenomenon, but Jay did not know whether to worry or rejoice. The Jenson that liked to go to school and the one who did not only made him think of the two different personalities his schizophrenia caused. Otherwise, he could not find a reasonable third explanation.
After he sent Jenson to kindergarten, Jay arrived at the office. Having had a soul-stirring weekend, he had nearly forgotten that he had hired a new assistant.
Hence, when he saw Rose in the office, he did not come to his senses for a while. He stared at her, face green.
"Mr. Ares, good morning!" Rose wore a professional, short-sleeved, white button-up shirt and red leather stilettos with high and thin heels. She had her hair high up on her head in a bun. She looked mature and steady as she sophisticatedly aimed a professional and refined smile at him.
Jay walked inside with his face blank. By the time he sat on his chair, Rose had already passed him his work schedule for the day. 1
Jay's gaze swept over his day's schedule arrangements. It integrated work and rest as well as took care of his family and company. It was highly efficient and reasonable.
"Not bad," he praised with a wooden expression.
He did not know why but he thought of his previous son Jenson. Because he got schizophrenia after he met Rose, Jay found Rose-who had performed perfectly-an eyesore no matter how he looked at her, s o he wanted to find something to nitpick to make things difficult for her no matter what.
"Make me a coffee. Thirty percent bitter and seventy percent sweet," he ordered with ill intentions.
Rose observed the faint rage hidden beneath Jay's eyes and went to perform this task especially carefully. Despite her being so meticulous that she had nearly used a physics formula to calculate the 3:7 ratio of coffee and sugar, when she placed the cupful of coffee filled with sincerity in front of Jay, he reacted viciously with after just a sip.
"Too bitter!" Jay drew his brows together and lifted his gaze to glare at the woman at a loss.
Rose picked up the coffee cup. "I'll add some more sugar."
Only when Jay tasted the coffee for the second time, he still wrinkled his brows and kept his face blank as he split hairs. "Too sweet."
Rose looked at Jay, rage like a blazing fire beneath her eyes though the look on her face could still be considered humble. "Mr. Ares, I didn't add sugar just now."
Jay's expression could not be described in just one sentence.
"You're playing me?" His handsome face cracked, every fragment of it fury embodied.
