Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose) -
Chapter 1595
Like a beam of light, Jay had brought the light of dawn to Yorks Stronghold, but after dark, he retreated without a trace.
The once lively Yorks Stronghold had gone back to being silent and dull.
Grand Old Master Yorks swayed and staggered on the mountain path, recalling every moment he and Jay shared. The child was cunning and wise and knew how to make him smile. However, he could not enjoy such bliss and warmth anymore.
His heart was filled with regrets, but he had only himself to blame.
On the other hand, Chloe was crying in Jordan's arms. Up until now, she still could not wrap her head around it and kept on mumbling, "Why is Jay so cruel? How can he abandon his mother?" Jordan had always been accommodating to Chloe. Firstly because of love, and secondly because of guilt. Back then, the Areses had imprisoned Chloe in the underground palace, which was why she contracted a strange disease. She had muscle atrophy and lost her mobility, and because of this guilt, he chose to be kind
to Chloe blindly.
Now, however, after Chloe had hurt his precious son and separated him and his daughter-in-law, Jordan finally realized that his accommodating attitude had ended up indulging his wife's unreasonable behavior instead.
He decided to stop indulging her. Instead, he said objectively and impartially, "He's not cruel at all. We made an unforgivable mistake. Jay's right, Angeline has no reason to forgive us after what we did to her. "She was only nice to you because of Jay. But you, not only did you not repent and admit your fault, you even aggravated the situation by torturing her. You've wounded Angeline's heart completely, and that's why she piled up new hatreds on the old ones. Her slapping you and even taking her anger out on Jay is proof that she had nowhere to vent out her anger."
After a pause, Jordan said with despair, "You've set Angeline off completely. I'm really worried that she'll live her whole life with this hatred in her, and it'll be our son who will suffer then. Chloe, you didn't hurt Angeline, you hurt your own son."
Chloe cried out, "How could I bring myself to hurt him when I love him so much? How would I know that Angeline is so important to him? What's wrong with Jay? There are so many beautiful women in this world, why is he sticking to one woman only?"
Jordan shook his head helplessly and sighed. "You still refuse to admit your mistakes, aren't you?
Angeline may be worthless to you, but to Jay, she's everything."
Jordan stood up and said, "Chloe, I think we should go back to Imperial Capital and use the rest of our lives to repent for our sins and ask Angeline for forgiveness. This is the only way Jay will forgive us." Chloe looked at Jordan in disbelief. "Ask Angeline for forgiveness? She can dream on."
Jordan said again, "Besides, I miss my father too."
Chloe raged. "Why do you miss your father when he was the one who put us in such a miserable state?"
Jordan said, "Why don't you put yourself in someone else's shoes for once? Just because my father hurt you, you've chosen to loathe him your whole life. Similarly, we've hurt Angeline over and over again. She should be hating our guts now, no?"
Chloe snorted, making no reply.
Jordan said in a daze, "When I see how much pain Jay is in upon losing Angeline, I begin to sympathize with my dad. Death must have felt like a better option for him when he lost my mother. Instead of killing you, he merely imprisoned you, and that just shows that he still cares about you.
"Therefore, I've decided to go back. I wish we can bury the hatchet while he's still alive."
Chloe started roaring like a madwoman. "If you want to go, then go yourself! Go, all of you! From today
onward, we will have nothing to do with each other..."
Jordan said helplessly, "I hope you'll go with me, Chloe. You're the Ares family's daughter-in-law after all. Don't forget, Imperial Capital is also your home."
Chloe hesitated for a moment. Her heart wavered when she recalled that her precious son Jay and her adorable grandchildren were in Imperial Capital. Though after giving it another thought, no one in Imperial Capital would welcome her, so should she bother going there?
"I'm not going."
