Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 1077

"Where's your mommy?" Jay asked curiously.

"Mommy isn't home," Baby Zetty replied in a pitiable manner.

"Come, I'll fix you something." Jay held Baby Zetty's hand and walked downstairs.

However...

Jay paused in his steps when he walked past the glass room on the garden balcony.

With his falcon-like eyes, he peered into the glass room and saw a telescope pointed at his house.

"What's that?" he asked, puzzled.

Fortunately, he knew that Baby Zetty's mother was blind. Otherwise, he would start making wild conjectures.

Flustered, Baby Zetty explained. "That's my aunt's telescope."

Daddy could not know that it belonged to Mommy. He would flip out for sure if he knew that Mommy was spying on him.

Jay's relaxed nerves were suddenly taut again." Angeline Severe?"

Baby Zetty laughed unnaturally. "Mm."

Jay's charming face turned livid. He finally knew why Angeline kept saying that he was only thinking about getting laid and even expressed her worries about him contracting kidney disease. Had she been spying on him?

Since it was inappropriate to lose his temper in front of a child, Jay suppressed his anger and muttered," Let's go."

Jay came to the kitchen and fixed a bowl of mushroom soup for Baby Zetty.

Baby Zetty ate with gusto. "Your mushroom soup is really delicious, Mr. Ben."

Jay grinned. "I was actually quite worried that you would find simple home-cooked food difficult to swallow since you're so used to eating fine cuisines."

Baby Zetty laughed. "Life is unpredictable, Mommy said. We may be rich today, but we might end up struggling for a meal tomorrow. Therefore, we must learn how to adapt."

Seemingly understanding what she was saying, Jay nodded. "Your mom's right."

Jay had always found Baby Zetty's mother inexplicably delightful.

Nine o'clock at night.

Angeline finally dragged her exhausted body home.

When Jay saw Angeline, he looked very much surprised. "Why are you here?"

Stunned, Angeline lied and said, "My cousin went overseas to treat her eyes. I'm in charge of taking care of Baby Zetty during this time."

Jay said with a sullen expression, "She has entrusted the job to an unreliable person."

"What do you mean by that?" Angeline muttered, sounding aggrieved.

Jay said, "Well aren't you daring for leaving such a young child at home alone? Aren't you even worried that accidents might happen?"

Angeline,

This guy liked Baby Zetty so much, huh? If he knew that Baby Zetty was his own, would he turn into an over-controlling father? "This is my family's business. You... You have no right to meddle in our affairs," Angeline muttered with a guilty conscience.

Jay said, "If that's the case, I'll talk about something which I have the right to meddle in then. What's with the telescope upstairs?" Angeline refused to admit it. "The telescope, as the name suggests, is used to observe the moon."

It was not actually used for observing the moon in the sky, though. It was instead used to observe this fine man standing before her eyes. When she lied, her eyes glistened and her ears turned slightly crimson.

Jay could not detect the double meaning in her words.

Jay was furious. "How shameless can you get, Angeline Severe? What sort of quirk is that, peeping on a man?"

Angeline, "..."

"I didn't peep on you."

Jay pressed her. "If that's the case, why did you say that I'm only thinking about getting laid all day? Why did you say that I have bad kidneys?"

She must have seen Marilyn hugging him a few days ago and that was why she filled up her imagination with inappropriate scenes. Angeline gulped. "I..."

When Baby Zetty saw Daddy and Mommy quarreling, she quickly mediated. "Mr. Ben, Aunt Angeline, stop arguing."

Both Jay and Angeline stopped quarreling for the sake of the child.

When she noticed that Daddy and Mommy were having a cold war, the smart Baby Zetty held both Jay and Angelina's hands in each of hers. She said, "Aunt Angeline, I want Mr. Ben to be my daddy." Jay's jaw dropped. "Why are you asking her?"
