Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 1578

Chloe was incredulous by Cole's audacity to chase her away. Taking advantage of her noble status, she said unscrupulously, "I am Doomsday's admiral. I have a higher position than you, and I am your elder in terms of status. How dare you chase me away, Cole Yorks?"

Cole said, "Aunt Chloe, a hero is silent about their past glories. You being Doomsday's admiral is now a thing of the past. Do you think that you still deserve the title of admiral with the current state of your health?"

Upon returning to Doomsday, Chloe had been held in high esteem, and she enjoyed the sense of honor brought to her by this title.

Cole, however, touched her raw nerve, crushing the last bit of vanity she had left. Chloe broke down emotionally and flew into a rage.

"Are you itching for a beating, Cole Yorks? I will make sure your father strikes you 30 times. I'd like to see how you'll keep being so arrogant after that."

Cole said, "Angelina is my guest. I'm willing to take 100 strikes without a single complaint, let alone 30."

Angelina finally swallowed the mouthful of food. Sis Shirley handed her a glass of water. She rinsed her mouth, not in the mood to enjoy Imperial Capital's

delicacies anymore.

She left the dining table and walked up to Chloe slowly. Angeline was clearly furious and resentful, but in front of Chloe, she was just like an airless balloon as she allowed her to push her around as she liked. Her voice was soft and carried no force. "Mom, when you sling mud at me, you're just bringing disgrace to the Yorks as well as hurting Jaybie. I hope you will be cautious with your words and actions in the future."

Chloe stared at Angeline in disbelief. "Are you trying to educate me on how to be a human?"

Angeline remained gentle. "Mom, you're biased in your words and deeds. I'm only reminding you for your own good lest you harm your own reputation."

Chloe stood up abruptly and slapped Angeline in the face.

Angeline did not dodge. She looked at her with tears in her eyes. Her tone was stern and firm as she warned her, "This is the second time you've hit me, Mom. I hope there won't be a third time." Chloe let out a sinister laugh. "You're a rebel."

She then gave Angeline another slap, but this time, Angeline refused to let her succeed. She held her wrist and pushed along with the momentum. Chloe had trouble standing still to start with, hence after a stagger, she fell backward.

She fell flat on her back.

This was a huge humiliation to Chloe who attached great importance to her reputation. Her rage went through the roof, and she suddenly began convulsing while spitting out white foam. Angeline was struck dumb and stood there dazedly, at a loss at what to do.

At that very moment, she felt like a lamp that had run out of fuel. She held her breath while maintaining her standing posture.

Jay had come down from Mount Pearl's peak and searched everywhere for Angeline. As soon as he made his way to Time Villa, he saw the scene of Angeline pushing his mother down. "Mom!" He bolted forward and picked Chloe, who was still foaming at the mouth, up.

Chloe glared at Angeline with a pair of deadly eyes. Her gaze looked as though it was saying, 'Look at the wife you married'.

Worried about Chloe, Jay informed Angeline in a haste, "I'll be back. Wait for me."

He left in a hurry with Chloe in his arms.

As soon as he turned around, Angeline began swaying and collapsed to the ground.

She looked at Jay's back as he left like the wind, tears rolling down her eyes.
