Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 1225

Jay grinned when he saw her ears flushing red.

"You had quite the audacity when you were teasing me last night and I didn't see you being this shy. I merely teased you a little in front of Zayne, yet you feel so ashamed?"

Angeline said, "I don't have the same type of relationship with you and Zayne. You're my life partner while he's my big brother. You should be the only one hearing the loving words I say." Jay looked like he was taught something new. "That makes sense."

Angeline let out a sigh of relief.

Perhaps last night's activity had been too tiring for her. Angeline felt more powerless than before. She stretched her arms out and acted coquettishly," Gimme a hug."

Jay smiled and picked her up. He changed her clothes, washed her face, and brushed her teeth.

When he brought Angeline downstairs, she had returned to her most dazzling self.

Josephine and Zayne looked at the husband and wife speechlessly. "We've been waiting for you for an hour."

Jay replied to her with his sharp tongue, "The Ares family are always fashionably late."

Josephine was pissed off at his reply.

When Jay and Angelina were done with their breakfast, it was already 11 o'clock in the afternoon when they rushed to the hospital. 1

The hospital had already completed Shirley's discharge procedures. She did not see any Severe family members coming to pick her up and felt inexplicably uneasy.

She suddenly recalled the time when her mother abandoned her by the trash can when she was younger.

Her mother had explicitly told her to wait right there and she would be back soon. However, her mother never came back.

When the orphanage's principal picked her up, the principal opened her school bag and saw that there were notes that stated her birth date and a couple of snacks. The loving principal was heartbroken as she told her, "My child, it seems your mother has abandoned you."

Shirley thought about how her relationship with her husband, Zayne, was about to end. It would naturally cut all ties she had with the Severe family.

Even though Angeline had told her that she would give her a warm, loving home, Angeline herself was currently suffering from an illness. Perhaps she had forgotten all about it.

Could today be the day she was abandoned all over again?

Shirley's heart felt incomprehensibly queasy.

The ward's door was pulled open, and Madam Ares pushed Sera in without any warning.

Shirley spotted Sera and sat back on her hospital bed tremblingly as she clenched her fists. "What are you doing here?"

Sera said, "I'm here to watch how the Severe family will dispose of a worthless daughter-in-law like you."

Shirley said furiously, "Angelina made a promise to me. If she doesn't come today, it'd be because of her poor health. I won't blame her for it."

Sera chuckled. "Shirley Thomas, Angelina's promise for you to let go of Zayne and become her true sister is just plain nonsense. Only a fool like you would believe her."

Then, she continued, "I've warned you from the start that Angelina and Josephine are close. She'll sacrifice a person like you who has no one influential behind her without hesitation. That's the terrifying part about her-the way she schemes against you while you cluelessly feel grateful toward her."

Shirley was bad at retorting, but she hated it the most when others talked bad about Angelina.

When Sera slandered Angeline, Shirley would defend her out of instinct and clap back.

Shirley glanced at Sera's legs before sneering, "What's the matter with your leg, Sera? Weren't you happily hopping around the other day?"

Sera replied, "There was a little accident, so the conditions took a turn."

Shirley said, "I was thinking God must be giving you payback for scheming against others all day long. He's perhaps making you unable to stand for the rest of your life."

Sera was furious. "Shirley Thomas, just who do you think you are? You dare curse me?"

Sera waved her hand and wanted to land a slap on Shirley.

Suddenly, a hand stretched out from behind, holding Sera's in the air.
