Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 1149

After hearing what she said, Steven gradually loosened his clenched fists.

A trace of hypocrisy emerged on his frosty face. "Since you are injured, stay here and heal your injuries. I will make sure you're treated fairly." Madam Ares was pleased to hear that.

After the servants took Madam Ares away, a flash of skepticism emitted from Steven's dark and sinister eyes. He turned his head and ordered his personal attendant. "Go and find out what Angeline is currently up to."

"Okay."

The soft pattering rain lasted through the night until dawn broke and the bright morning glow shone from the horizon.

The golden glow enveloped Grand Asia, leaving behind mottled shadows.

When the bell rang, indicating the start of a working day, the bulky doors of Grand Asia's executive conference room were pushed open. Participants immediately filed into the room. However, Angeline, the leader of this meeting, did not turn up.

When Grayson found Zayne, he asked nervously, "Why hasn't Ms. Severe arrived yet? We're having a shareholder meeting today. She could cause a commotion if she still doesn't turn up."

Zayne swiftly dialed Angeline's number. After several attempts, her phone remained unanswered.

Zayne speculated. "She was with Master Ares yesterday. Logically speaking, Angeline's illness shouldn't attack if she's in a good mood, right?"

Grayson had always been a cautious man. "Make a trip to Garden Of A Diary as soon as you can, Zayne. M s. Severe has run into too many problems lately. I'm afraid her body won't be able to take it..." Zayne bolted out the door with a pale countenance.

Zayne rushed to Garden Of A Diary, pushed open the villa's door, and saw Angeline lying lifelessly on the ground.

Zayne felt like his legs were filled with lead. He shuffled clumsily over to Angeline and dropped to his knees in front of her with a thud, muttering in agony," What happened to you, Angeline?" Angeline's feeble voice fell in his ears. "Zayne, I... I've ended up like Grandpa..."

Zayne's body turned to jelly as he slumped to the ground.

"Angeline, let's abandon Grand Asia and Jay now that he doesn't remember anything anymore. I'll take you abroad and regulate your emotions. You'll recover very soon, okay?" Zayne was almost pleading with her.

Angeline was stubborn. "Don't blame him, Zayne. He has it so much worse than us. He's a strong-minded person and hates being manipulated as a pawn. Only, I had no choice but to lie to him. His biggest pet peeve is being lied to. There's now a chip in his armor of trust. I can understand why he doesn't believe in me anymore."

Zayne said, "You were lying to him to protect him."

Angeline lamented, "I can see that he has been working hard to persuade himself to believe me. He's already trying his best. If Madam Ares hadn't confused him with both Rose and Angelina's identities, he wouldn't have taken the bait either. How could he possibly know that love has caused me to transmigrate?"

Zayne choked with sadness. "Stop it. Stop speaking on his behalf. The more devoted you are to him, the more you're going to indulge him. I can see that you're having a hard time and that hurts me, Angeline. Do you know how much pain I'm in when I see you suffer?"

"You have to believe me, Zayne. I have strong willpower and will get well very soon."

Zayne cried out, "If Jay doesn't exist then yes, I believe that you will get better. But Jay is a taboo subject. He's your life and your emotional power switch. How can you get better when he's around?" Angeline said hopefully, "I believe that one day he'll understand why I did what I did today."

Zayne said, "That's enough, my silly sister. Let me take you to the hospital first."
