Ch. 621..630

Chapter 621

Jack looked coldly at Jay and said, "You came just in time."

Josephine stopped Jay's wheelchair right in front of Jack. Angeline immediately got behind him.

Her actions were similar to a little bird seeking protection from an eagle.

Josephine stared daggers at Angeline and uttered," Troublemaker."

Angeline just smiled at her.

Josephine was confused. This woman had the guts to defy and disrespect the people of Sycamore Annex, yet she was as obedient as a small animal toward her. Why was this?

Hearing what Josephine said, the people of Sycamore Annex thought that Jay had come to apologize.

Even Jack thought so. He put on an expression of arrogance, waiting for Jay's apology.

After a moment of silence, Jay's thin lips uttered," Father, what wrong has she done for you to order them to kill her?"

His voice might have been soft, but it was weighted with defiance.

Jack was thinking that if Jay did not humbly

apologize to him, he might not let Angeline off the hook that easily.

He did not for one moment think that the first words Jay said would be filled with defiance.

"Jay, she came to Sycamore Annex, my territory, and caused a commotion, should I not punish her?" Jack swallowed down the rage that was building up inside him and maintained his fatherly smile. "If she was disrespectful to you, you should punish her, I have no problem with that," Jay replied.

Angeline was dumbfounded.

He did not seem to care about her much, did he?

"You're still matured," Jack said.

He raised his hand and commanded his people, "Attack her."

Angeline quickly hugged Jay's leg and begged, "Mr. Ares, you can't just leave me like this. I am your-"

"My what?" Jay had a glint of expectation in his eyes.

"Your employee," Angeline did not have the courage to state her status. 1

Jay's expression grew colder. "You had the guts to cause trouble, but not to face the consequences?"

She started crying, "No Mr. Ares, my face is so expensive, what if they ruin it."

Jay's expression was as cold as ever.

Bringing up the plastic surgery made him angry.

Jack was eager to take care of this once and for all." What are you all waiting for, attack."

The guards immediately started dragging Angeline.

"Mr. Ares, help!" she was devastated by Jay's nonchalant behavior. She only wanted to test his sincerity toward her.

"Mr. Ares, I admire you, you've always been my idol. I'm really loyal to you, please help me. I'm really useful, I'll listen to you in bed, I'll do anything you want" Jay's eyes started twitching.

Everyone had goosebumps after hearing what she said.

Josephine asked, "Big brother, how could you let go of a girl like that?"

When Jack's guards dragged Angeline away, she could have fought but chose not to. She cowered with her head down, sneaking some glances at Jay. "Stop..."

Jay's voice sounded deliberately restrained. He hastily shouted.

Angeline leaped with joy. "Mr. Ares, I knew you wouldn't leave me to die."

Jay saw the look on her face and his expression darkened.

He thought she was going to fight back. He did not think she would refrain from fighting back but she did because she was waiting for him to rescue her.

Chapter 622

Chapter 622

Jack's face was ashen. "Jay, don't tell me that you're going back on your word now. Are you reluctant to let this woman go?" Jay replied, "She disrespected you, so if you want to flay her or kill her, I shall not stop you. However, I have a request."

Jack's gaze froze. "Say it."

"I want to take Sera Severe with me."

Jack erupted in fury. "Don't you dare think about it."

Jay lifted his head, his eyes carried a trace of a smile." She disrespected me, so I have no reason to forgive her. Just like how you didn't have a reason to forgive my care worker."

A mix of emotions swirled in Jack's face.

In the end, he laughed maniacally, "Hahaha, Jay oh Jay, if you want to rescue her, why beat around the bush? You're my son. Just say the word and I'll release her."

"Dad, you've misunderstood me." Jay looked at Angeline with animosity. "A mere care worker like her isn't worth me using my brain for."

Angeline looked back at Jay with resentment.

That b*stard clearly did not want her dead, but why

did he put up such a merciless facade? 2

Jack felt that Jay was playing him like a fiddle today. He was angry and made it obvious to Jay, saying," Take your woman and leave."

He then walked into the grand hall with an ice-cold expression on his face.

Sera looked at Angeline with all the hate in the world. The look in her eyes was as cold as ice that was enveloped with deep envy.

The way that Jay pampered Angeline made her jealous almost to the point of insanity.

Angeline stood in place, silently feeling the emotions in Sera's gaze on her.

"Let's go, unless you wanna stay here to be humiliated more?" Jay said coldly.

Josephine's hand reached for the wheelchair, but Angeline rushed to push the wheelchair.

Angeline pushed Jay along, chattering all the way. "Mr. President, thank you for saving me today. If you were a little late, I would probably have been torn and fed to the dogs by those muscular men." "Didn't you say that they were gluttonous, good-for-nothings?" Jay said casually.

Angeline gulped. Why was she caught every time she lied?

"Mr. President, so you were there earlier." Angeline let out an awkward laugh.

"Not really. I just happened to hear you say that."

Jay was worried she would imagine that he was overattached to her.

In the end, Angeline did not disappoint. "Mr.

President, were you worried about me that you followed me? I'm very touched."

Josephine rolled her eyes at Angeline. "You're overthinking it. My brother was afraid that you would cause some sort of trouble and get him involved in it."

Jay said, "She's loyal to me. In fact, a worker who keeps the house clean and warms my bed for me is a national treasure. Surely I have to look out for her."

Josephine spat a mouthful of spittle. "Ptooie... Big Brother, she's just bullshitting and you're believing her?"

Angeline exclaimed earnestly, "I'm serious!"

Josephine stared at her. "So if my big brother wants you to warm his bed, you're going to do it?"

Angeline nodded. "Of course."

One could only wish for that!

Josephine was at a loss for words.

"Shameless." That was the conclusion.

Angeline, "..."

No one noticed that a captivating flower had bloomed within Jay's eyes.

At night.

It rained suddenly with thunder and lightning blanketing the skies!

There was an air of obscure romance in the room.

Chapter 623

Chapter 623

"Mr. President, can I use your bathroom?" Angeline stood next door, asking pitifully.

The room next door was actually the kids' room. Not only was it much narrower than the master bedroom, but it also did not have any amenities to speak of. If one wanted to shower, they had to visit the master bedroom or use the public bathroom outside.

The weather that day was terrible.

The sound of rolling thunder combined with the howling wind and the pitter-patter of the rain made Angeline afraid of using the bathroom outside.

Jay looked up at the cute lady clad in pajamas. His gaze fell on her clean, white legs, and he gulped.

Even like this, it made him feel slightly overwhelmed.

He would not even dare to imagine her walking out of the bathroom. That would make him crumble.

"Go outside." He suppressed his habit of pampering her and finally rejected her after much struggle. Angeline replied, "Mr. President, I'm scared."

Jay's gaze shifted to outside the window. The hallway was pitch black and there were only flashes of lightning momentarily lighting up the place, giving it a n eerie feeling all of a sudden.

Angeline was not afraid of lightning, but maybe she was afraid of the ghosts and spirits in Fragrant Vessel Court.

Jay's indecisiveness swirled within him. He pitied his father for turning into a devil because of love, but his heart ached more for Angeline. She was young, yet she was already ruined twice by his father. Once, she lost her life.

Another time, her face was destroyed.

This episode between them made him feel fearful. He was afraid that Angeline would hate him and everything about him.

"Mm..." Jay nodded. His emotions suddenly took a dark turn.

A glow flashed across Angelina's eyes as a bright smile beamed on her face. "Thank you, Mr. President."

She then rushed into the bathroom.

Soon, the sound of running water came from inside the bathroom.

Jay's troubled thoughts were interrupted by the sound of water. He suddenly realized a problem. Did that girl bring clean clothes with her when she came in?

An alluring smile formed on his face. It was only in front of him that she could be that silly.

"Ah..."

After two hours.

Angeline's squeals came from within the bathroom. "I forgot to take clean clothes with me!"

Jay's eyebrows creased as he smiled.

He would just have to wait and see!

"Mr. President!" came Angelina's coy voice from the bathroom.

"Mm?"

"Can you give me some clothes?"

Jay sat in his wheelchair and was about to wheel himself. However, he rejected her coldly. "No."

"Then when I come out, please close your eyes." Angeline almost sounded like she was pleading. Jay replied, "Mm."

Then, a creaking sound came from the bathroom. How could Jay pass up this golden opportunity? As such, he lifted his head and looked at Angeline's body.

Angeline took a few steps forward, and when her gaze met Jay's predatory eyes, she screamed and ran back into the bathroom.

"Mr. President, aren't you afraid of going blind?" Angeline exclaimed sheepishly.

Jay could not help but wheel himself to the wardrobe, remove a white T-shirt from it, and return back to the bathroom.

"Open up, I'm giving you a shirt."

Angeline opened the door just a tiny bit, her snow-white arm reaching out and feeling around.

Jay grabbed her hand and placed the T-shirt into her grasp.

Chapter 624

Chapter 624

"What about little undies?" said Angeline.

"Do you wanna wear mine?" Jay frowned, he said impatiently, "You'll have to put up with it."

Angeline wanted to cry but found no tears

She walked out wearing that large-sized t-shirt, the shirt clearly had a loose cut, but it still accented the sexiness of her body.

Especially those two long legs of hers, they were slender and sculpted, just like a piece of art.

Her long wet hair rested on her smooth skin. It added a n aura of innocence to her.

However, she was still wearing that mask.

Jay's throat rumbled, his noble, handsome face showed the slightest sign of being charmed.

Angeline was alluring enough already, she leaned her body on the table while looking at him with emotional eyes.

"Mr. President, would you like me to warm your bed?"

Jay choked a little, although she never knew the concept of shamefulness since they were both kids, she became cautious and fragile after she possessed Rose's body.

Her little habit surfaced all of a sudden, and it made

Jay very happy inside.

"How much?" he asked with a gentleman's tone.

Although he had many dark and devilish intentions inside his mind, like bedding her, kissing her, feeling all over her... but Jay was an extremely rational and calm person.

Before he cleared up the doubts that he had in his head, he would not do something that would make her feel regretful.

For example, what if she knew that his father was the one that killed her, how could she be in love with the son of her own killer?

For example, why was she always wearing a mask to hide her own identity, yet she did not want to confess to him about it? What was she contemplating?

Angelina's smile fell apart, the topic of money came up and it was hurtful.

"Mr. President, you can decide the pay based on my service." she smiled bitterly, accepting his offer.

Jay looked at her bright smile and locked eyes with her black, beady eyes brimming with anticipation and desire. He nodded lightly, he made up an excuse and said, "You go and lie on the bed, I'll come over as soon as I finish reading some documents."

Angelina skipped over to the bedside and leaped onto the bed like a child. She pulled the covers over herself and took in a breath of his scent. Her face became red

with shyness.

Jay closed his eyes, his helplessness locked away within his eyes.

Angeline waited for a long while but he never came back, instead, she fell fast asleep.

When he heard her rhythmic breathing, he wheeled himself over.

He gently removed her mask, he did not expect that he would be so captivated by those intricate features of her face that he could not peel away from it.

His coarse fingers ran across her visage, just like how he would carefully caress his prized treasure.

In the end, he could not resist her temptation and pressed his lips against hers.

He wanted to just peck her, but he wanted more of her, so he intensified that kiss.

Perhaps he was too rough, Angeline suddenly moved, her eyelashes shuddered and trembled.

Jay let her go instantly.

All she did was turn her body around and fell back into a deep slumber.

The jarring noise of a phone ringtone rang across the room.

Jay thought that by not picking up the call, it would stop ringing on its own.

However, it did not. It rang again and again.

Angeline woke up and saw Jay sitting at the bedside, she was slightly shocked.

"Mr. President, you've not slept yet?"

Jay's face was ashen... his mood was ruined by that blasted ringing.

Angeline remembered him being a clean freak, furthermore, he disliked her sleeping on his bed.

So she quickly sat up and clambered to the room next door to pick up the phone.

Chapter 625

Chapter 625

Angeline just picked up the phone and the soft voice of a man came from the other end of the line. "Darling, guess who I am?"

"Damn, I would recognize you even if you were reduced to ash. Peter. It's you!" Angeline remembered Mr. Peter's voice very vividly because it was he who accompanied her through her dark times. "Then do you know where I am right now?" Peter's voice was laced with dissatisfaction.

Angeline was his client, but she ran off before the healing stage was complete. Just so that Angelina's face would not collapse and fall apart later on, Peter came all the way to Imperial City to continue his service to her.

Angeline already sensed what he was getting at, she said with surprise, "You're in Imperial City?"

"Pinnacle Hotel, get your *ss here right now," said Peter.

Angeline looked at the maelstrom that was going on outside, "Can we make it tomorrow?"

Peter was agitated, "I came from so far away just to see you and now you're making demands? I only have six hours, it's all up to you." *Slam*

He slammed down on the phone with much fury.

Angeline made a face at the phone and muttered," Since you came all the way to see me, I'll give you some face."

Then, she opened up the wardrobe and began picking her clothes.

In the bedroom, Jay had a cold aura surrounding him.

A man wanted to take her out this late into the night and she agreed without hesitation?

Even the weather outside could not stop her from seeing this man?

He stared at her, looking at her beaming with joy, picking at her clothes with much attention, a sudden anxiety overcame him.

Angeline changed her clothes and walked out of the room. It was just a jumper skirt with a sweater over it. In Jay's eyes, however, that white skirt completed with the pink sweater seemed like her own masterpiece.

Jay gripped at the handle of the wheelchair with so much force like he was gripping at that b*stard, not letting go until it was torn to pieces.

Angeline walked over to Jay and asked tenderly, "Mr. President, I'll help you onto the bed!"

Jay still had that aura of coldness lingering about him, he looked at her with a chilling gaze, "You're going out?"

Angeline nodded, "Mm."

It was nothing more than a word without any description that came along with it whatsoever, and it made Jay's brows furrow.

A chatterbox like her who gave him such a simple answer made him feel that something was off.

He didn't press further. Instead, he said calmly, "I'm going to rest."

Angeline squatted and lifted him onto the bed. Every time she did that, she was very careful and mindful about it. It was as if he was an expensive vase and she treated him with extra care. Just when her hands left his body, Jay suddenly grasped her hand, "Warm my bed for me?"

Angeline shuddered.

A spark of joy flashed beneath her eye. The thing is, she thought of how long her face went without an examination, so she could only suppress her delight.

"Tomorrow, Mr. President. I'll warm your bed tomorrow."

Jay let go of her hand, dismay surfaced from within his eyes.

Angeline pulled the covers over him, turned off the lights, and left quietly.

In the darkness, Jay's eyes emanated a chilling gaze. He took out his phone and sent a text to Storm. "Send the care worker off. Also, find out who she's meeting up with."

Angeline walked out of Fragrant Vessel Court, the howling winds almost tore the umbrella out of her hands. Angeline gritted her teeth furiously, "Goddamit Peter, you timed this pretty well, arriving at Imperial City just when the weather's this terrible. You're a bad omen."

Storm drove the Rolls Royce over to Angeline, "Miss care worker, Mr. President asked me to send you off. Get in the car!"

Although they knew that the President's care worker was actually his wife, he never admitted it, so they dared not address her as such.

Angeline got inside.

 

Chapter 626

Chapter 626

Storm thought of the President's instructions, so he tuned into the President's channel and started chatting with Angeline.

"Where are you headed, miss?"

"Pinnacle Hotel."

Storm shuddered, a hotel?

No wonder the President gave that order.

The missus is meeting with some man this late into the night, the President surely is fuming.

"The weather is horrible, yet it can't stop you from meeting him, it must be someone important to you?"

"Mm." Angeline nodded casually.

Peter was the one who changed her life. Other than Jaybie, he's the only one who was most important to her.

Storm was sweating. He could imagine the outburst and pandemonium buried deep within the President.

"Miss, the President's not able to move around well, so it won't be good if you left him for too long. If not, you know how the President's like, if you made him angry, then I'm afraid that you won't be staying in Imperial City for much longer." Storm hinted at Angeline.

Angeline wanted to calm him down, so she said, "I'll

not take long."

Storm's expression turned from bad to worse.

Would that kind of activity not take long?

The more they conversed, the more Storm felt that the President was being cucked. 1

When the Rolls Royce arrived at Pinnacle Hotel, Angeline pushed the door open and rushed out.

Storm could only show his helplessness to the President.

Jay's expression was dark and ashen, he grabbed the vase by the bedside drawer and hurled it at the rack opposite to him. His priceless treasures collapsed and shattered all over the ground. It was an orderly and spotless room, and it had become a hot mess.

That Angeline had no idea what she had just done, she galloped toward the hotel room.

Knock knock knock knock

That door-knocking sound rumbled across the earth.

Peter opened the door, he was clad in sweat pants and a towel covered his head.

Angeline had not looked at him yet, she only urged him, "Quickly, my man is still waiting for me at home."

Peter closed the doors.

In the hallway, Storm's eyes had a cold, sinking

expression.

Angeline turned her head around, she saw Peter standing in front of her half-nude. She gawked at him.

Then came a deafening, squealing sound...

"Angeline Severe, you're crazy. I opened the door while wearing this and you think that I'm going to take a chance on you?" Angeline calmed herself down, "You're right. If you had other intentions toward me, it would been since two years ago."

Blood flowed freely from Peter's nose, he sat on the ground and sighed.

"I came all the way to Imperial City to suffer this, was I that desperate?"

Angeline had her back toward him, she snapped, "Go put on some clothes. Your body looks like crap, and you still have the guts to show it?

Peter was in dismay, "Damn, you broke my nose, now you're taking a shot at my body. Why did I treat you well?"

Angeline snickered, "Don't feel sorry for yourself, it's just that my man's body is way better, you just can't compare. However, you're not bad compared to other men."

Peter chuckled, "I'm a plastic surgeon. I know anatomy better than anyone else. I don't believe that any man's body could be better than mine? Who's this man of yours?"

Chapter 627

Chapter 627

"Listen up now, my man is the founder of Grand Asia--Jay Ares." As she mentioned her darling's name, an arrogant smile curled across her face.

Peter looked as if he was struck by lightning, he froze in place dumbfounded.

"What's wrong?" Angeline waved her hand in front of his eyes.

Peter howled in delirium, "Jay Ares is your man?"

Angeline nodded casually.

Peter grabbed his head, his face showed a kind of terror as if the world was about to end tomorrow.

Oh my God.

"I've provoked him now, I'm doomed, utterly doomed!"

Angeline pouted, she puffed her cheeks and looked at Peter with dissatisfaction. "Although rumor has it that my darling is a savage and a man of a few words, or how his hands are stained with blood, but those are just rumors. In reality, my darling is just a little puppy, gentle and harmless."

Peter's world was already falling apart, he was about t o fall into insanity himself.

He took out a skincare serum from the drawer of the dressing table and stuffed it into Angeline's hands,

then he began to chase her away.

"Angeline Sever, this skincare serum is enough for a good half-year. Your face has completely healed up, so you don't have to look for me after this. Also, never tell anybody that I fixed your face." Peter pleaded.

Of course, Angeline did not want Jay to get acquainted with her plastic surgeon. If he knew how much suffering she went through, surely he would be unhappy. "Don't worry, your secret's safe with me."

"If you see me later on in life, no matter where you are, just pretend that you don't know me, okay?"

Angeline was bothered, "Why though? We're just friends, it's not like we're cheating."

Peter pushed her outside, "You'll understand later on. Goodbye."

After he shoved her out, he locked the door from the inside as if a ghost was standing outside the door.

Angeline was disturbed, "Why was Peter scared sh* tless when he heard darling's name?"

"Scaredy-cat!" Angeline roared at the door.

Peter would not answer.

Angeline held the bag of serum in her hands and returned to the car, Storm looked at his watch and shuddered, "That fast?" "Mm." Angeline put the bag in the backseat. Storm's gaze fell upon the brand of the serum, then he looked up the price of the product while he was driving and forwarded it to the President.

Then, Storm felt anxious for Angeline.

Since the missus would accept a product with a price tag close to ten million, their relationship must be something else!

If the President saw that bag of stuff, surely that would take it past his boiling point.

At dawn, Angeline returned to Fragrant Vessel Court.

She carefully opened the bedroom door. Just when she thought that Jay was still sound asleep, he suddenly turned on the lights, it made Angeline freeze in place. "Mr. President, you're awake?"

Jay sat on the bed, his dark and dangerous gaze fell upon the bag in Angelina's arms.

The text that Storm sent him told him that the skincare product was made up of platinum and was the favorite of rich wives. It was worth almost ten million.

Storm also sent a picture of the man to him. When that b*stard met up with his woman, how dare he wear nothing but his skin. Not to mention how angry he was. He was suppressing his emotions for a long while, now that he saw all of those, he cracked.

"You're back?" he asked lightly.

His tone was clearly light and easy. His baritone, magnetic voice was unclear. However, it lingered around Angeline's ear. She felt that the temperature around her suddenly dropped.

She was sharp, she noticed that Jay was in an awful mood.

Chapter 628

Chapter 628

Especially when she saw the china blown to smithereens on the ground, she confirmed her thoughts.

Angeline walked over slowly and put the bag on the table, she then cautiously walked over to the bed.

"Mr. President, did you not sleep well last night?" she asked softly.

The look in Jay's eyes could freeze a bull to death, they flickered over to her.

He would want to see how she would treat that 'past tense' which was him after she met up with another man.

He said nothing, so Angeline assumed that he said yes.

So she coaxed him patiently, "Why not you sleep for some more, and I'll sing you a lullaby-"

The look on Jay's face did not change one bit.

Angeline then said, "So you don't like lullabies, then I'll tell you a story?"

"Angeline. Severe." Jay spoke suddenly.

Every time he called her by her full name was her most fearful moment.

Angeline widened her eyes, and murmured, "So you recognized me from the start?"

Then she lamented, "Then why did you not tell me?"

Jay's voice was cold once more, "Shouldn't I be asking you that question?"

"Darling, I—"

Just when Angeline was about to explain herself, Jay cut her off harshly, "You don't need to explain. It does not matter anymore. Pack your things and leave Tourmaline Estate right now." Angeline was struck with ice, she was chilled to her core.

She grabbed Jay's hand in vain and sobbed, "Darling, are you chasing me out? I won't go, I won't leave."

Jay snapped his hand away.

"Go away. You are not welcome here."

Angeline's eyes were red, "I understand now, no matter if I'm Rose or Angeline, you don't love me anymore. Right?"

Jay looked at her brimming with tears, and the fury in his heart erupted because of her. He roared at her." What right do you have to talk about love? You are not worthy."

Angeline stood up shakily, she looked at Jaybie's contorted face and felt worse than ever.

She shuffled to the room next door, packed up, and left disheartened.

Jay was brimming with anger, at that moment he felt like he was punched square in the face, every single doggedness that he had within him exploded like an overinflated ball, drifting in the air. A fear suddenly budded from within him!

Now that he let her leave just like that, would it be a long time before she came back, just like how it was the last time?

Now that she had left, it was like she took his soul with her.

Jay lay on the bed in despair.

When Angeline was on the way out, she saw the kids.

Baby Zetty watched Angeline leaving with her luggage in hand and she hollered, "Auntie Whatever, I told you that you wouldn't last three days in there. Should we send you off?" Baby Robbie chimed in, "That's great, daddy and mommy have a chance to get back together again."

Jenson rolled have Baby Robbie the white-eye," Stupid."

Angeline's eyes were teary, full of reluctance.

Jenson walked over and gave her a brief hug, "Don't cry, I'll ask daddy to let you stay."

Angeline caressed his head, squatting before him," Jens, your dad is mad right now, don't go and persuade him at this moment. I'll figure out a way to come back here."

Chapter 629

Chapter 629

Angeline dragged her luggage along and left Fragrant Vessel Court in the midst of the pouring rain.

After Jenson watched the sorrowful image of her disappear behind the curtain of rain, he turned around and ran toward his daddy's room.

"Daddy, she's gone!"

Jenson leaned on the door, his face was like Jay's, cold with a trace of anger.

"Even if you were punishing her for not saying goodbye, just fake it, why did you have to drive her out in this awful weather?"

Jay sat on the bed, his legs naturally hanging by the bedside. His handsome face was clouded by a dark air.

"Whenever a mistake is made, punishment is due." he gritted his teeth and growled.

Jenson's sight shifted to the shards on the floor, he quickly understood that his daddy's outburst was not the result of petty resentment.

His mommy must have done something to have made him that angry.

Jenson walked in and bent over to pick up the broken pieces.

Jay said, "Let the housekeepers clean that up."

Jenson replied, "Ay, a few days ago you had something wrong with your head, you told the housekeepers to go to the outer courts."

The expression in Jay's eyes sank, he remembered. He did not want anybody to disturb the alone-time between him and Angeline, thus he arranged the housekeepers to the outer courts.

Jenson said, "The house's cleanliness is not the issue, more importantly, if she's gone, who's going to take care of you?

Jay went silent.

Jenson asked the question that struck his heart. He was paralyzed now, but he was still a clean freak. If it were any other person who took care of his well being, he would feel uneasy and uncomfortable. When Jenson dragged the trash bin out of the room, h e sighed deliberately, "Daddy, it's rolling thunder and pouring rain out there, she did not have an umbrella with her, I'm not sure if that fragile body of hers got a fever after soaking in rain."

Jay's heart was in a disarray. Angelina's body is very weak. If she fell sick because of this, he could not forgive himself.

He anxiously took out his phone and gave Angeline a call. However, all he heard was the tone that told him her phone was switched off.

In reality, Angeline's situation was not that precarious at that moment.

With her her luggage with one hand and an umbrella in the other, she rushed toward Josephine's place which was not far off.

When Josephine heard the distressed knocking on the door, she climbed out of the covers disheveled." Who is that?"

She climbed out of bed, put on a pair of slippers, and walked to the door as her slippers clapped audibly.

She opened up the door just a tiny bit, saw Angeline, and shut the door like she had seen a ghost.

"I think that you've just been chased out of Fragrant Vessel Court, right? Haha, I knew it. My big brother would not let a pretentious witch like you stay by his side."

Josephine looked up at the raining skies outside the window, "However, since he chose to chase you away today, it's true that he's a savage and a man of a few words, his actions are more than one could imagine." Josephine mocked Angeline's misery.

Angeline on the other hand, squatted by the door and wailed.

Her cries could shake the entire ground beneath her.

Josephine softened. She slowly opened a gap in the door and looked at Angeline.

She thought that she was pretending, yet she saw her eyes were pouring rain from them, her face drowned in tears, that pitiful look on her face could make one feel sorry for her.

Josephine opened up the door, "Alright alright, since we're both ladies, I'll take you in for the time being. You'll leave when it stops raining."

Angeline walked in as if it was her own house, she flicked her shoes off at the door and ran barefoot toward the sofa. Then she collapsed onto the sofa with a thump, her arms and legs spread wide.

Chapter 630

Chapter 630

Josehpine widened her eyes and hollered with dissatisfaction, "Hey, miss care worker, this is my house, not yours. Can you be mindful of your image for a moment?" "God must be blind in giving you such a good figure and a pretty face. Now, you tell me. If you were not that pretentious, why was my brother that cruel to you?" Angeline lifted her head from the sofa, her eyes sorrowful, the tear marks on her face were still wet, she looked hurt, "Why did your big brother dislike me?"

Josephine rolled her eyes, "Even if it were other men, they could not stand your weird, melodramatic behavior. You're not womanly at all."

"Womanly?" Angeline sat upright and asked earnestly, "What does being womanly mean?"

"It's how women carry themselves," Josephine said while demonstrating, "You have to be coy while you speak, your voice has to be tender, you have to be slow when you walk, your waist has to be soft and don't bring all the attention to yourself-no man likes it when a woman takes away his spotlight."

Angeline had goosebumps.

Josephine noticed that she was not quite getting it, so she gave up on saving her, "I'm not related to you, why

am I teaching you all these?"

At that moment, the rain was subsiding, the wind stopped howling, and a ray of light shone from the windows.

Josephine gestured toward Angeline, "Miss, you can leave now."

Angeline hollered softly at Josephine, "Josephine, it's H

me.

That tone sounded just like Rose's angry voice.

When Josephine heard that familiar voice, she stared at her shockingly.

"You are..."

Angeline removed her mask, "It's me, your soulmate, Rose."

Josephine gawked at her.

After a while, Josephine snapped out of it. She exclaimed in joy, "Big sis, you're back to your old self again?"

Angeline was moody, she said weakly, "So what if I'm back to my old self, your big brother's still..."

As she thought of how she suffered for these two years, not being recognized nor cared for by Jay, Angeline's tears flowed once more.

Josephine pulled out some tissues and wiped the endless tears streaming from her face.

"Sis Angeline, I'm really sorry for how I treated you previously," Josephine said sheepishly.

"You didn't know, so I don't blame you."

"Then have you confessed to my big brother yet?" asked Josephine.

As she mentioned it, Angeline cried even harder, "He knew who I was a long time ago, but he wouldn't tell me about it. What does he mean by that, tell me?"

Josephine ruffled her hair and said shamefully, "Jeez, my brother's brain is a damn circuit board. Now that you ask me, I have never understood how he thinks. However..."

A brilliance suddenly struck Josephine's mind, "If he won't confess to you, then you should identify yourself to him."

Angeline had a fearful look on her face, "When I was at the hospital, he was always angry at me whenever he saw me. I did not dare confess to him because I was afraid that he was still blaming me for leaving without saying goodbye, afraid that he would punish me heavily."

Angeline continued, "He can beat me up and scold me, but I don't want him to leave me. Who knew that my fears would come true."

Angeline looked at Josephine with a pitiful look on her face, "I have nowhere to go, could you take me in?" "Of course I can. I've been feeling down recently, so you're here just in time, you can help me let off some steam."
