Ch. 751..760

Chapter 751

Cole said, "It's easy to get your father to come back, provided that your stepmother disappears from this world."

Angeline did not know whether to laugh or cry. "I really want to pry open your skull and see what's inside. Other than frequently wanting others to disappear from this world, do you have any other solution?" Cole rubbed his nose embarrassedly and smiled without saying a word.

The person standing in front of her was the law that controlled the life and death of others, but she did not believe it!

Shirley looked at Angeline and Cole, her smile a little secretive.

Knowing that Shirley had misunderstood her relationship with Cole, Angeline pointed at the door with her chin. "You can leave already."

Cole pursed his thin lips, a hurt look appearing on his handsome face. "You burn the bridge after crossing the river. Every time you're done using others, you start to turn hostile and refuse to recognize them." Angeline was a little guilty. "Then, you can leave after lunch."

Cole did not hold back either. "Okay."

Angeline was stunned. She had only said it casually, but he actually took it seriously.

Angeline took Shirley, who was snickering, into the kitchen while saying to Cole, "Make yourself at home. I'll go and prepare lunch for you."

Cole really regarded this place as his home and wandered around leisurely.

Kitchen.

Shirley laughed from ear to ear. "Little Angeline, I think he's really into you."

Angeline placed her hands on her hips and gave a troubled look. "Don't think that just because he looks all dressed up. He's actually an unreliable man. His words are overly exaggerated and he's clearly the spoiled son of a wealthy family."

Shirley said, "But the way he looks at you is sincere. It's a fact that he likes you."

Angeline started laughing. "Big Sis, he personally told me that he could give me everything but love. I, on the other hand, only want love and nothing else. You see, he and I cannot mix around. We'll never be together."

Shirley shook her head quite regretfully. "Why do I think that he has the heart but you don't have the intention?"

Angeline's cell phone dinged suddenly.

Angeline unlocked her phone and saw a lot of emails entering her mailbox. She initially thought they were ads, but the subjects of the email shocked her immensely.

The subjects of the emails had 'Titus family of Swallow City' at the end.

Angeline was a little startled. Unable to help but be driven by curiosity, she finally clicked on one of the emails. Upon seeing the contents of the email, Angeline suddenly laughed aloud. "Haha. The heavens are really helping me."

Shirley smiled softly. "Look at you so happy. Has someone texted you?"

Angeline looked for the sender, but it was blank.

Without knowing what she was thinking, Shirley's face suddenly became serious.

"Little Angeline, I want to ask you something."

Angeline became inexplicably sad upon hearing Shirley's tone. She pocketed her phone and said seriously, "Sister-in-law, go ahead and ask."

Shirley asked, "The girl who came over to our house with you last time... Is she your brother's exgirlfriend?"

Angeline looked distressed. She really did not know whether she should tell her sister-in-law about Josephine and Zayne.

"Big Sis, it's better if you don't know. When we're alive, we're rarely confused. But if we know everything, we may not be happy," Angeline said.

Shirley said, "I don't care about your brother's past. It's just that when I went to Imperial Capital the other day, I saw that girl being bullied by several superstars at the photography site. I thought that since she's such a good girl, she shouldn't be reduced to such a situation. So I told your brother about her. I don't know if he helped her, but I'm always worried about her these days. Little Angeline, why don't you help me take a look and see if her situation is better?"

Angeline was too shocked to speak.

For Shirley to have such a tolerance for Zayne's ex, her mind was really unlike a usual woman's.

Chapter 752

Chapter 752

Angeline sighed. It was no wonder Zayne was unwilling to lose her.

Angeline nodded with a smile. "I got it."

For lunch, the table was filled with sumptuous dishes by Angeline who was the chef and Shirley as the assistant. After Angeline invited her grandfather, mother, and Cole to sit down, she and Shirley then sat down to eat too.

Cole picked up the chopsticks and asked eagerly," Angeline, which dishes did you make?"

Angeline pranked him and gave him a piece of greasy braised pork. "This one, please eat."

She initially thought that this man with a body proportion comparable to a supermodel paid much attention to body management, so Cole should resist eating such greasy fat.

Who knew Cole would start eating it without a care. "It melts in the mouth and leaves your mouth full of fragrance. Angeline, I didn't think your cooking skills would be so good. My mom likes a woman with good cooking skills as her daughter-in-law. She'll definitely like you."

Angeline's head ached and she supported her

forehead with one hand.

She continued to pick up a lot of food for him, in hopes to stuff his mouth with delicious food.

Cole ate with relish and never forgot to smile gratefully at Angeline.

His love and satisfaction toward Angeline overflowed from his body.

Watching him add one bowl of rice after another, Angeline was worried that she had not cooked enough. She simply reminded him, saying, "You're eating so much, aren't you afraid you'll get fat?" Cole laughed and said, "The men in my family have a naturally skinny physique."

This reminded Angeline of Jay. Jay was also a man who did not need to manage his body but still had a perfect body.

As such, every time she could not finish the meal, the food ended up in his stomach.

Angelina's eyes dampened thinking of Jay.

After lunch, Lady Severe pushed Angeline out of the kitchen. "Mom will wash the dishes. You go and accompany the guest."

Angeline walked up to Cole very uncomfortably. Her mind was brewing, thinking of a way to send him away.

"I'll accompany you out for a walk," she initiated an offer and said.

A look of surprise appeared on Cole's face. "Okay."

The two of them walked on the long and cramped sidewalk outside of the Severe family's compound. Both of them had their own thoughts and neither of them spoke. "Angeline!" Cole suddenly broke the silence.

Angeline stared at him blankly. Cole approached her and the two stood facing each other.

Cole was too close to her and it gave her a strong tension. She could not help but step back.

However, as she took a step back, he took a step forward. At last, she was forced to the trunk of the big Banyan tree. Cole placed one hand on the side of her head. His gaze was more serious than ever. Angeline became nervous inexplicably.

"What do you want to say?"

Cole said, "These few days, as soon as I close my eyes, my head is filled with you. I really hate the feeling of being manipulated by you. Tell me, is this love?" Angeline was dumbfounded.

This guy was not young, so how was he so ignorant of his feelings?

"Have you never been in love?" she asked.

He was a little vexed. "You know, my family has a very serious hereditary disease. I usually feel disgusted when I'm near other women."

Chapter 753

Chapter 753

Angeline looked at Cole sympathetically. "Don't tell me you've actually fallen for me?"

Cole then gripped her wrist excitedly. "In that case, I have no reason to let you go. Angeline Severe, I want you to marry me."

Angeline broke free from his hand and looked at him in frustration. "You like me, but I have to like you too."

Cole was extremely overbearing. "It doesn't matter whether you like me or not, as long as I like you. I don't want to endure the days without you by my side. You must be together with me."

Angeline did not know whether to laugh or cry. "That's called lovesickness. You have to be cured."

He then let go of her hand. "How do I cure it?"

Touching her red and swollen wrist, she said angrily," It's very easy. I'll bring you to a place."

Then, Angeline brought Cole to Swallow City's largest female club.

When she went to the front desk, Angeline applied for a card and topped up the ordinary membership card. She stuffed the card into Cole's hands and said, "Go to Room 404 on the second floor and wait for me there."

Cole looked at Angeline's face that was more beautiful under the colorful glass lights and a gratifying smile

appeared in his eyes.

He put his mouth close to Angeline's ear. "Okay, I'll wait for you." That voice was obviously very humorous, but it did not make her uncomfortable.

Angeline stared at his back in a daze.

Did this guy know why she brought him here?

How could Cole not know?

He was a frequent visitor of red-light districts, but his business at the Flying Moon Centre had nothing to do with picking up girls.

Cole came to Room 404 and saw that it was an ordinary private room. Dislike flashed in his eyes.

He sat on the king-sized bed, looking forward to Angelina's arrival.

Not long after, the sound of a room card being inserted came from the door.

Cole was full of joy as he walked forward in big steps.

As soon as he walked to the door, a white shadow rolled into his arms. Cole had not seen her face clearly and thought it was Angeline. He took her to the bedside and placed her on the bed. When he saw her face clearly, he suddenly became angry.

This woman hung onto his neck like an octopus when she saw Cole's handsome face. "Don't worry, Sir. I'll take care of you. I know you have no experience. I'll be very proactive."

Cole was full of anger. He asked with a dark face and cold voice, "Where's Angeline?"

"You mean the lady who paid for you? She said she's your sister. Your sister is really nice to you. She said that you're bad in that aspect, so I have to do my best to help you regain your glory as a man." Cole raised his hand and gave a light blow to the woman's head. The woman fell onto the bed silently.

Cole kicked the door open sullenly and left.

Not long after, Angeline left the club. She thought she was helping Cole with his mysophobia, but she did not know if it would work and was feeling distressed over the money she spent. Suddenly, a black shadow appeared in front of her like lightning.

Angeline took a closer look and saw Cole in a towering rage. Angeline's first thought was that her money had been spent in vain.

"Why did you come out so soon? Oh my money, it's gone just like that, huh?" Her pained look made Cole, who was simmering with rage, even angrier that his face turned black.

Angeline saw that he indeed was angry and realized that she might have crossed the line. She smiled flatteringly at him and coaxed in a kindly manner, saying, "Don't be angry. This club is the most high-end red-light district in Swallow City. The girls inside not only have good figures but also nice faces. Their services are first-rate. Don't you have mysophobia toward women? That's because the women you see are ugly. If you see those beautiful girls, then your mysophobia will naturally be better."

Cole thought of the barely dressed prostitute and how he did not know how many men she had served. Suddenly, the contents in his stomach surged. He vomited violently while bent over the trash can.

Chapter 754

Chapter 754

He vomited so painfully that he was even almost basically vomiting only bile at the end.

Angeline felt a little guilty seeing him suffering so painfully.

"Sorry, I thought this method would work for you."

Cole looked at her speechlessly. "Do you think this kind of place meant for dirty trades would have a therapeutic effect on patients with a cleanliness disorder?"

Angeline said, "The strategy was to fight fire with fire."

Cole was speechless.

Angeline had to take Cole home again in the end. She also boiled ginger tea for him and massaged his pressure points to stop his vomiting.

Cole was so tormented that he felt weak. He leaned on the sofa and looked at Angeline. "You seem to be very experienced in relieving vomiting." Angeline was stunned for a moment. It was all because Jay used to vomit frequently and this had given her the experience to deal with relieving vomiting. Then, Cole's mouth began to spout nonsense again," You really are suitable to be my wife."

Angeline glared at him fiercely. "Believe it or not, I'll throw you back to the club."

Cole was silenced.

In the afternoon, as Angeline was about to go to the school to pick up the children, Cole got up from the sofa and said, "I'll accompany you." Angeline felt downtrodden. 'How can I get rid of this itch? Ahhhhh!'

At the entrance of Experimental Elementary School, three children were carrying their school bags waiting for Mommy. When they saw the man behind Mommy, the three children were dumbfounded. "Mommy really wants to marry this uncle?" Baby Zetty was a little confused.

Baby Robbie said, "To be honest, if we look carefully, this uncle is also quite handsome. If he treats Mommy well, I'll have no objection."

Jenson rolled his eyes at Baby Robbie fiercely. "Traitor."

Baby Zetty was very unhappy and muttered, "No matter how handsome this uncle is, he's not as handsome as Daddy."

Baby Robbie being very objective and fair when he said, "But this uncle is very powerful. Moreover, Daddy is now a handicapped person. His charm in Mommy's opinion may have reduced." Jenson then said coolly, "Although Daddy is a handicapped person, he's still 100 times stronger than him."

Baby Zetty nodded. "Yeah."

Baby Robbie was isolated. His little mouth pouted.

Feeling wronged, he said, "I'm just telling the truth. I also love Daddy, but Daddy always makes Mommy sad. H

Angelina walked over and greeted the children with a smile, "Babies, do you understand what you were taught in school?"

What worried her the most was that the children had never experienced an orthodox education, so she had no idea whether they would end up lagging behind since they were suddenly arranged to the third- grade culture class.

The three children sighed dejectedly. "Hmm."

Angeline then comforted the children nervously, saying, "It's okay if you don't understand. Let's take it slow."

Who knew that Baby Zetty would complain, "Mommy, it's too simple."

Angeline, "..."

Angeline suddenly felt that her worries were unnecessary. How could a scholar like Jay raise mentally challenged students?

Cole greeted the children with a grin, "Hello, my dears.

Daddy is here to pick you up. Are you happy?"

Chapter 755

Chapter 755

Cole had probably thought these three children were just as cute and easily deceived as the other children, s o he brazenly wanted to be the children's cheap daddy.

Jenson then murmured, "The lowest people are invincible!"

Baby Zetty only rolled her eyes directly at him, the kind of terrifying white eyes where the black pupils were hidden and it was only all white.

Cole immediately felt choked. He felt as if there was no reason for him to be alive at the moment.

Jenson said coolly, "You want to be my father? No way! n

Cole rubbed Jenson's hair. "Just you wait, TH marry your mommy very soon." He appeared full of confidence.

The first thing Jenson did when he got home was to shut himself in the bedroom and take out his cell phone to secretly text Daddy, 'Mommy and her new boyfriend are sticking together all day long. Daddy, your precious is going to be succumbed by others.'

When Jay received the text message, the people who had been in the middle of the meeting stopped abruptly.

His expression that was originally considered normal

had frozen over immediately, making the meeting room instantly become several degrees colder.

The employees stared at their CEO nervously.

Recently, President Ares had been gloomy as if the devil was possessing him. Whoever offended him should have recently just died miserably.

The small businesses in Imperial Capital who rushed over to fawn over the Areses and Bells' companies had basically witnessed bloodshed.

When their CEO retaliated against those ants, he did not even blink nor frown at all.

At this moment, President Ares seemed to be in a very bad mood. They could foresee that the person who had offended their CEO would die miserably. Jay squeezed the phone tightly, and the phone screen shattered from the strong force. It made a loud cracking noise.

Jay handed the phone to Grayson. "Replace the phone.

H

"Yes, President Ares."

Coming out of the conference room, Jay sat in front of the office window. His entire body was as if it was enveloped in eternal, unmeltable ice.

The image of Angeline and Cole being sweetly in love lingered in his mind.

The two of them had actually gone out together?

Jenson said they were stuck together all day?

What about at night?

Jay was going crazy.

He needed to prevent Angeline from falling in love with Cole. Angeline was his precious who he had taken care of carefully. Whoever tried to snatch her away from him would have to die.

"Grayson."

Grayson opened the door and walked in.

Jay ordered, "If Sera wants to get help in Grand Asia, the condition is that the Severe family have to come forward to intercede for her."

Grayson instantly understood that President Ares was missing Miss Severe, so he secretly planned to let Miss Severe come to Imperial Capital to meet him.

"Yes."

Tourmaline Estate, Sycamore Annex.

There was still a remaining half a month till Sera's expected due date, and the obstetrician had asked her to move more these days as that would make giving birth more convenient. Tourmaline Estate's obstetrician had requested for leave from Jack overnight because of a sudden situation at home. Since Jack thought that Sera had not shown signs of giving birth, he nodded and agreed. Who knew that Sera would inexplicably have contractions not long after the obstetrician left.

Furthermore, the contractions were getting stronger and stronger, causing deadly pain.

Jack's wife was very anxious, so she suggested and said, "Master, quickly take her to the hospital. I think there's something off about her situation. If she's not bleeding, why does it hurt so much?"

Chapter 756

Chapter 756

Jack also had no experience with this and became nervous after hearing what the madam said. After all, the child in Sera's belly was his own blood-related son. "Prepare the car and let's go to the hospital immediately."

Just like that, the madam packed up the labor bag and sent Sera to Imperial Capital overnight together with Jack.

At first, they went to a private obstetrics and gynecology hospital. The equipment and technology of this hospital were only one rank below Grand Asia.

However, after the doctor did some checking on Sera, terrible news broke. "She has rare Rh-negative blood, which makes her prone to hemolysis when giving birth. There isn't enough blood in our blood bank. If you want to be safe, it's best to go to Grand Asia Hospital."

Jack and the madam were shocked by the news. "How did it end up like this?"

The physician criticized, "She has Rh-negative blood, did you not know? How can both of you be so careless? How was the previous check-up done?"

Jack and the madam were very resistant to Grand Asia Hospital, so the two of them were unable to make up their minds for a while.

At this time, Sera's heart-piercing cry rang out, "Ah, it hurts. It's hurting me!"

The doctor said, "Hurry up and transfer her to the hospital. If you prolong the waiting, I'm afraid that bad things will happen to both mother and child."

The madam begged Jack with red eyes, "Master, let's send her to Grand Asia. It's your child that she's pregnant with!"

Jack nodded with a sullen face.

He wanted his son so much that he never calmed down enough to think about why the Tourmaline Estate's obstetrician had suddenly asked for leave tonight.

Why had the obstetrician never told them that Sera had the terrifying Rh-negative blood?

They then sent Sera to Grand Asia anxiously. After Grand Asia's obstetric surgeon checked Sera's condition, he made a request. "We need her family members to give their signature in person, otherwise we wouldn't dare to perform this operation. After all, both of you are not her family members."

Jack was very unhappy. "Her relatives are all in Swallow City. It'd be too late for them to come over."

"If you call them right away, it might not be too late." The doctor raised his wrist to look at his watch and reminded him.

The madam walked up to Sera and said, "Sera, did you

hear that? You should call your mother."

Sera was so scared to death at the moment that she had already abandoned the shamefulness of being a mistress.

The madam helped her dial the phone number.

As soon as the call was connected, Sera screamed horribly.

"Oww... Mom, I can't do it anymore. I'm dying."

"Sera, what's wrong with you? Where are you?" Anne cried out in panic.

"Mom, I'm having dystocia but the doctor can only assist in delivering the baby when the Severe family comes forward and gives their signature. Mom, get Dad to come here quickly." Anne was so scared that her hands were trembling and her phone fell to the ground.

"Sera's going to give birth?"

Sera's painful and helpless cry for help sounded," Mom, it hurts so much. The doctor said I'm almost at my limit, and I'm terrified that I'll die."

While Anne had not recovered from the blow of knowing that her daughter was a mistress, she was struck dumb by the life and death situation her daughter was in.

She pulled up a sleepy George. "Master, did you hear that? Our daughter is in danger, please go quickly and

save her."

George fainted on the spot out of anger after knowing Sera was a mistress.

Anne hastened to call 999 and sent George to the hospital.

Not being able to duplicate a few of herself, Anne thought of Angeline's mother at the moment, that kind woman.

She called Lady Severe and immediately cried when the call was connected. "Big Sister, please help me with a good deed and have Angeline go to Imperial Capital. My Sera is giving birth, and she's having a difficult delivery, but the hospital insists on requiring the Severe's family signature to help her deliver the baby. Sera's father has passed out of anger."

Lady Severe said, "Okay, okay."

Lady Severe hurriedly called Angeline, and after clarifying the situation, Angeline did not shirk the slightest. After all, the life of a person was more important right now. As such, she hurried to Imperial Capital.

Chapter 757

Chapter 757

After Angeline rushed over and arrived at Grand Asia Hospital, she could hear Sera Severe's despondent wailing from the hallways.

Jack sat in the waiting room, sullenly smoking.

The madam accompanied Sera by her side. She held her hand, her own eyes red from all that sobbing.

"Sera, everything will be fine. You have to be strong." Madam consoled her over and over.

Angeline ran out of the elevator, and the madam rushed toward her as soon as she saw her. She grabbed her hand and said urgently, "Miss Severe, you came just in time. Hurry and help Sera with her signature."

Angeline glanced over to Sera who was lying on a mobile sickbed. How could someone who had so much pride cry like it was nobody's business?

Her hate for Sera was washed away by pity. She walked over to her and said, "Giving birth to a child is painful. You'll have to hang in there."

Sera looked at her with resentment. "Where's my mom? Why isn't she here?"

"Aunty Connors is in the hospital keeping my dad company." Angeline did not mention how George fainted because of how mad Sera made him. She

could not, for Sera could not take another mental blow at this point in time.

Sera's face showed disappointment. "Is she... Disappointed in me?"

"Ahhh!" Her intense contractions made her ignore all of that.

Angeline said, "I'll look for the doctor to give my signature."

A nurse guided Angeline over to the doctor's office, but the office was the last room after taking a left turn at the end of the hallway.

Its location was very isolated, and even Sera's wailing was softer from over there.

On their way there, the nurse briefly explained about Sera's current condition, "The mother is Rh-negative and has difficulty in giving birth, so it's very dangerous right now. Because she has a special status, we dare not perform the surgery on her. You would have to seek our person in charge. You also have to sign a copy of the hospital's statement of legal exemption and disclaimer."

Angeline was surprised. "Rh-negative?"

The entire Severe family was Rh-positive, which meant that Sera's unique blood type could only come from her mother."

Yet she knew nothing of Aunty Connor's blood type.

Angeline walked over to the office door, and she was furious after listening to the nurse. "Statement of legal exemption and disclaimer? What is the meaning of this? Are you saying that if anything happens to both mother and child, Grand Asia is not going to take the responsibility?"

The nurse replied, "You can say that."

"Who in the hell set this tyrannical rule?"

"The president."

"Hehe..." Angeline laughed coldly. "Is he still human?"

The nurse reminded her, saying, "Miss Severe, you should hurry and sign the papers. Any further delay might put the mother in more danger."

Angeline could not help but push the door open and walk in.

The nurse turned around and left.

The nurse returned to the entrance of the obstetrics operation theatre and immediately gave the order to push Sera into the room.

Angeline knew nothing about what was going on.

After she entered the office, she saw a familiar silhouette in a wheelchair. She was dumbstruck.

Jay turned the wheelchair around and faced Angeline, his eyes as cold as ice.

They faced each other, and the air was sullen and gloomy.

"Where's the contract?" Angeline asked.

Jay took out the statement from the stool beside him and handed it to her.

Angeline took a few steps forward and took the papers from him. She read them over, then read aloud, "If any mishap were to befall mother and child, Grand Asia shall not be liable for any loss incurred."

Angeline was stuck between a rock and a hard place since Sera was her younger sister from another mother. If she signed that agreement and if anything actually happened to both mother and child, Anne and Sera would hate her for an eternity.

Chapter 758

Chapter 758

Jay did not urge her further. Instead, his sharp eyes were fixated on her face.

Angeline had become skinnier, and her features looked more intricate, especially those eyes of hers. They were bigger and brighter than before.

When he thought of how a charming person like her could be with another man, a cold aura emanated from his body and surrounded him.

"Angeline Severe, you have to understand that this is not a matter of whether you sign the agreement or not. Instead, it's whether I decide to sign it or not."

Angeline suddenly came to a realization. Sera was in labor right now and was in an emergency. She then ignored all of her doubts and thoughts in her mind, promptly signing the papers.

She then gave the agreement over to Jay. To her surprise, he just stared at her with those glowing eyes of his. He had no intention of signing those papers at all.

"What do you want so that you can let her go?" Angeline asked with a despondent look on her face.

Jay asked her back coldly, "I heard that you met up with Cole Yorks today?"

Angeline was silent. She was indeed with Cole Yorks

during the day.

Jay noticed that she did not deny it, so he could figure out what was going on.

His fury increased immensely. "Angeline Severe, I remember warning you before not to be in love in front of the kids. Have you forgotten about that so quickly?"

Angeline looked at him with suspicion. "How did you know about that?"

She suspected that he had sent someone to tail her.

Jay replied, "The kids told me."

All of the doubts that she had within her completely dissipated.

Jay saw that she would not come clean about that love life of hers anytime soon, and his chest boiled with rage. It made him fume as his fury skyrocketed. It was as if a little more provocation would just make him explode.

"The kids don't like you for having a boyfriend. Cut off your ties with him immediately," he brutally commanded.

He forbade her from being with someone else, yet he always said that it was for the kids' sake. She could not feel any love from him at all.

Angeline felt hurt, so she continued in her rebuttal toward him. "Not every one of them dislikes him. Baby Robbie likes him a lot."

She looked at the clear eyes which gazed upon her. They appeared harmless, yet they were like thousands of razor blades that slowly cut into her.

"So? What do you want?" Jay asked with a savage tone in his voice.

Angeline went all out, saying, "Our divorce will come sooner or later anyway. We'll also be building our own families next. Since Jenson and Baby Zetty won't accept him, then they should follow you instead. Baby Robbie likes him, so he'll follow me- Ah-"

Before Angeline could finish, Jay's hand grasped her throat like a pincer. Angeline found it hard to breathe.

"The way I see it, you're tired of living." Jay was in a fit of rage.

Angeline looked at him, her eyes were voiceless cries. The one who she loved was him, but he was pushing her away from him. He forbade her from seeing someone else.

"Sir Ares... Kill me... Kill me... So I can be free." She choked on her words as her eyes turned red.

Jay slowly released his grip. He blamed himself immensely. What was he doing?

He hated her because he loved her, but to kill her?

Angeline held her red and swollen neck, her anger turning into a laugh. "Why didn't you strangle me to death?"

Jay shuddered when he heard her condemning words.

"Get out!" Jay roared!

Angeline turned around and left.

However, when she walked to the door, she heard Sera's howling wails as she opened the door. She turned back and dropped to her knees with a loud thump. "Sir Ares, I'm begging you to please sign the agreement."

Chapter 759

Chapter 759

On Jay's handsome face was a lifeless expression. " Break up with him." He threatened her.

Angeline also wished to cut ties with Cole. However, that runt was more clingy than good velcro.

"I can't," she said calmly.

When they got together, it was always Cole who took the initiative.

When those words reached Jay's ears, it seemed like it was hard for her to pull herself away from Cole.

"Is it really that hard, breaking up with him?" Jay gritted his teeth, a murderous aura seeping from within him.

Angeline had no words.

Jay was enraged by her silence, and his teeth ground together. "Angeline Severe, don't forget that we're not divorced just yet. This is cheating. Since you dare betray me, you'd better believe that I will-" Angeline steeled herself, and her dark eyes welled with tears as she looked at him with dissatisfaction.

Jay's sentence was left hanging in the air.

Even if she betrayed him, what could he do?

"You've reminded me of something. I'm not sure as to when you're free, Sir Ares. We should put an end to

this wicked relationship of ours," Angeline said without emotion.

Jay glowered at her. How dare she talk about divorce? He had never thought of divorcing her.

"Get the hell out." He roared in fury one last time.

Angeline knelt there, lowering her voice as she pleaded, "I beg you, Sir Ares, to sign the papers." Jay paid no attention to her. Instead, he leaned against the wheelchair and rested his eyes. Angeline heard Sera's cries from outside and became anxious for her.

Jay was unwilling to sign the papers to save her, and Angeline had beads of nervous sweats on her head.

Time was ticking away, and Sera's wails intensified with every second. Angeline could not hold back any longer. She suddenly crawled over to Jay, grabbed his hand, and pleaded, "Sir Ares, I beg you. Save her, please."

Jay slowly opened his eyes. When he saw that worried look on her face, he felt a sense of defeat mixed with disappointment within him.

"What has her life and death got to do with you?" he asked casually.

An emotion of loneliness surfaced across Angelina's face. "In the past, I would probably not have been here. But now, my dad is looking at her in a different light. Perhaps in my dad's eyes, she became the daughter who could bring him hope and goodness in his life. If I save her, it's all because I don't want my dad to lose that hope!"

Jay looked at her, stunned. A prideful Angeline finally knew how to compromise. It seemed that the plot twists that happened within her family had left her traumatized.

"If you save her, she'll have your face under her heel. Are you sure that you won't regret your decision today?" he asked.

Angeline smiled a light, bitter smile. "It was I who was incompetent. I threw away the love that my grandfather and dad gave me. If someday that were to happen, I can only blame myself for being useless." Jay's heart ached so much for her. She was prideful and arrogant, yet she knew how to give in to reality. Perhaps she had suffered a good deal within the Severe family.

"Get up," said Jay.

Angeline was overjoyed. "You're willing to save her?"

Jay leaned forward, reached out, and pinched her chin. "Do you know that both mother and child were supposed to die on that bed today? However, I'll let Sera go because of how you begged for them. When she acts all arrogant in front of you in the future, I hope that you won't regret the decision you made today."

Jay released her and picked up the intercom telephone. He gave his instructions, "Keep that noble alive."

Angeline fell to the floor in utter shock. It was at that moment she realized that everything that happened today was a set up after all.

All of that agreement and statements and disclaimers, they were all fake.

"What are your intentions in devising your plans and luring me here?" Angeline got to her feet, her face disheveled. She looked at Jay with fury in her eyes.

Chapter 760

Jay had a righteous look on his face. "I was just giving you what you deserved. I was just giving you a kind reminder to be mindful of your words and the things you do."

He paused for a while, and his eyes became colder. "In any case that you do this again, it'll not just be a simple reminder the next time."

Angeline let out a cold laugh. "What do you want to do to me?"

Jay stared into her eyes. What could he do to her?

Other than to keep her bound to his side, what else could he do?

"I will make him disappear from the face of the earth." Jay could not touch her, so he could only exterminate Cole Yorks.

Angeline suddenly let out a laugh. She laughed at how similar the both of them were in person. Just a little provocation and they would make someone vanish someone from the face of the earth as if they were the overlord of this world.

If they really had been going at each other's throats, she would be more than happy to witness that brutal fight.

"Do whatever you want." Angeline turned away and left him with those words.

Jay was infuriated so much by her attitude that his fists clenched together.

Outside the operating theatre.

Jack and the madam paced back and forth nervously, occasionally looking at the door of the operating room. Angeline arrived at the front of the operating theatre and asked the madam, "How long has Sera been in there?" Madam replied, "When you arrived, the doctors immediately made arrangements for the surgery."

Angeline had no doubt about it now. Jay really did set this up to lure her here.

She just could not wrap her head around one thing. He spent a lot of effort to lure her here just to give her a warning or two?

That did not sound like him at all.

Finn pushed Jay out of the office. Angeline watched the savage look on his face, and joy suddenly bubbled from within her.

That joy came all of a sudden, so Angeline thought about it carefully and felt that she was just deluded. She misunderstood the intentions of Sir Ares in inviting her here.

He could not have set this up just to see her, right?

That would have been... Too childish?

It was also not something that a mature and reliable man like him would do, right?

The wheelchair stopped at the end of the hallway, yet it had no intention of motioning forward.

At that moment, the doors to the operating room swung open, and a doctor walked out with an exhausted look on his face. "I'm sorry."

Those words could not put together a complete picture. Jack quickly got to his feet. "How's the child?"

The madam seemed to be concerned about the opposite. "The mother is fine, right?"

Angeline looked at both husband and wife with suspicion. Jack was extraordinarily concerned about his son.

However, the madam was anxious about Sera instead.

The doctor announced the results, "After our efforts, we managed to keep the mother safe, but not the child."

Jack stumbled as if a tremendous blow had struck him.

Madam breathed a sigh of relief instead. She mumbled, "Sera's alright, Sera's alright. That's good."

Jack lost his child, and his mind was full of hate pent up resentment. He looked at Jay with eyes full of rage and stepped toward him. "Jay Ares, it's you. It must be you who killed my child."

Rays of cold, sharp light emanated from Jay's eyes. His voice sounded like that of a hellspawn. "Dad, what nonsense are you talking about? I'm your child, aren't I?"
