Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 1280

All of Carson's prowess and swagger had seeped out of his body. At this very moment, he was just like a coward, running up and down all over the place to avoid Zayne's fists. Jay let go of Cole's hand reluctantly. Instead of taking revenge, Cole rushed up to Angeline immediately and bent down in front of her, waving his hands in front of her eyes. When he saw Angelina's unresponsive eyes, Cole's heart sank. He called out softly, "What happened to your eyes, Angeline?"

Angeline resented all the disaster and sorrow Cole had brought her. She snapped, saying, "It's all thanks to you."

The joy and delight in Cole's eyes started drowning out little by little. Angeline was certainly not here to renew their relationship.

She came to him with such deep-seated resentment. Why else was she here if not for revenge?

He grew cautious. "You must be tired, Angeline. Why don't you stay and have a good rest? We can always talk later."

All he wanted to do was escape-to escape the edge in

Angeline's eyes.

The way Cole carried himself so humbly made Spencer and everyone in the stronghold's jaws drop.

Was this still the same man with a big smile and evil intentions? One who would not hesitate to kill others like he was squashing a fly? Angeline nodded. "Mm."

Cole's dashing face broke into a grin as he immediately ordered Carson, "Carson, go to 48 Stronghold and clear out a few rooms." Carson made a face at Zayne who was still hot on his trail and said, "I'm leaving now. Why don't you try chasing me?"

He then ran away like the wind.

Zayne stamped his feet with anger.

"B*stard, you may have gotten away today, but not tomorrow."

There was finally a break amid the tension.

Cole invited Angeline to 48 Stronghold to be his guest, to which she did not refuse. When Cole tried to support her, Angeline said, "I'd like to have my bodyguard Ben guide me. I've grown accustomed to his care by now."

Cole glanced at Jay, only to realize that Jay's dark and deep eyes were filled with hostility.

Jay walked up to Angeline and carried her on his back

deftly.

Cole's eyes were filled with jealousy.

When Cole had left with Angeline and the rest, Spencer's mistresses came up to him and started talking all at once. "Master Spencer, that so-called Angeline isn't that beautiful. Besides, she's blind. Why exactly does Cole like her?"

Spencer looked at his beautiful mistresses and was puzzled himself. "Yeah, she's not pretty and is blind as well. What exactly does Cole see in her?"

Suddenly, a lightbulb lit up in his head. He then scolded his mistresses, "What are you blabbering about? Cole is finally in love with a woman. Who cares whether she's beautiful or blind? It's fine as long as she's a girl. If we keep being so picky, the Yorks are never going to have descendants-ever."

The mistresses sighed. "You're right. Now that Cole has fallen in love with a woman, that at least shows there's nothing wrong with him."

48 Stronghold was located on the sunny side of Mount Pearl. The climate here was warm probably because of the adequate sun it was getting. There was a dense growth of vegetation and frequent sightings of hares, making the place look extremely thriving.

48 Stronghold was located next to a stream. There were rows after rows of bamboo houses, a courtyard planned in a wide surface area, and trees wrapped with various precious crystals that were heavily laden

with fruits.

One could not help but exclaim at how magical nature looked over here. God had made Mount Pearl look completely different.

Jay saw rows after rows of bamboo houses coming together to form clustered houses in a courtyard. The sight looked both elegant and refreshing.

Jay frowned deeply. If Angeline could see, then she would most probably fall in love with the scenery here.

At the thought of how Cole had prepared the rooms especially for Angeline, Jay could not help but feel inexplicably bitter about it.
