Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 1184

The Ares family's villa.

When Madam Ares appeared at the door of the villa, she was intercepted by the gatekeeper. "Madam Ares, Old Master Jack told us not to open the door for you if you comeback."

Madam Ares' face turned pale. "What... What does he mean by that? We aren't divorced yet."

The gatekeeper said, "Old Master Jack said that he has already submitted a divorce application to the court. Your divorce procedures will be carried out by professionals, so you don't need to meet each other." Madam Ares burst into tears, took off the gold bracelet on her wrist, and stuffed it into the hands of the gatekeeper. She then begged him and said, "Please, please go in and tell him that I'm here. Tell him that I must see him no matter what, that even though we're having a divorce, we should meet and end on a good note as husband and wife. I just want to see him one last time."

The gatekeeper returned the gold bracelet to her." Take this back, Madam Ares. Look, I'll let Old Master Jack know that you're here, but I cannot say for sure that he will meet you."

Madam Ares shed grateful tears. "Thank you."

The gatekeeper rushed into the villa and announced Madam Ares' arrival to Jack.

Jack thought for a very long time before saying wearily, "She's only here to beg me for help. Go and tell her that I'm really sorry but there's nothing I can do to help her. Also, ask her not to appear in front of me anymore. We're never going to see each other again, ever."

When the gatekeeper left, he conveyed to Madam Ares the exact same words that Jack just said. After hearing what he said, Madam Ares's heart was shattered.

"We're never going to see each other again, huh? Did I hurt you that deeply, Old Master Jack?"

Madam Ares then tottered away.

When Madam Ares appeared in Sera's ward in her crestfallen state, Sera could already guess what had happened. "He disagreed, didn't he?"

Madam Ares uttered sadly, "He didn't even want to see me, Sera. We're getting a divorce."

Sera felt that her last bit of hope was dashed. Her delicate face suddenly withered like flowers.

"What should I do then?

"If Dad can't come back, who should I rely on in the future?"

Madam Ares said, "Wake up, Sera. Wake up from all your unrealistic dreams. We are children born into poverty from the start. We need to learn how to rest on our laurels. I'll take you away. We'll rent a room, get jobs, and live a simple life."

Sera started roaring in despair. "No... I don't want to live a pitiful life like that."

It was at this time that a nurse walked in with a stack of payment slips. She tossed them to Sera and said with a cold, indifferent face, "This is the hospitalization, treatment, and medicine fees. Please pay 10,000 bucks in advance."

Sera looked at Madam Ares. Madam Ares only shook her head. "I have no money."

Sera roared in despair. "Why do I have such a cowardly and incompetent mother like you?"

Sera's castigation had left Madam Ares petrified.

"How can you blame me, Sera?"

Sera lost control of herself and started screaming at the top of her lungs, "Am I wrong to say that? You gave birth to me but abandoned me by giving me to your best friend. Do you know how I've lived all those years?"

"When Anne gave birth to a son, she ignored me completely. I had to watch other people's expressions, weigh their words carefully, and even flatter them. I lived every day without any dignity trying to fawn over every single person in the Severe family!"
