Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 1681

After hanging up the phone, Angeline put on a solemn expression and pleaded with Jay, "I want to go back to Imperial Capital, darling." Jay looked at Angeline with a slightly stiff expression.

Angeline cupped his face and said coquettishly," Please, Jaybie. I miss the kids, my parents, as well as the Saraca dives Pierre."

Jay picked her up and put her on his lap. When he felt her weight that was gradually becoming heavier, Jay's taut nerves finally loosened up.

Actually, to some extent, Angeline was not the sick one but Jay. He had become sensitive and careful. The attention he showered Angeline with had almost reached the state of paranoia.

He hugged her tight, feeling a little uneasy. "I'm not ready yet. Can you give me some time?"

When Angeline sensed Jay's hesitation, she suddenly realized what was going on. Her illness was physical, while his illness was intangible.

She should not be pressuring him blindly.

She kissed his lips gently and whispered softly, "Don't worry about me, darling. I'm fine."

She stared fixedly at Jay. "I used to be timid and weak because I was afraid that your mother wouldn't like me, which then affected your emotions. Now that I know that you'll never leave me, I can finally feel at ease. Don't worry, no one can hurt me except you."

Jay smiled. "Silly."

It was raining outside.

Angeline was secretly delighted because the outdoor exercise session had to be canceled. However, she deliberately put on a regretful expression and looked a t Jay. "What should we do, darling? We can't do outdoor exercises today."

Jay saw her big and charming eyes twinkling with radiance. He laughed, replying, "We'll do indoor exercises then." "How are we supposed to do that when we don't even have a gym?" Angeline looked crestfallen at once.

Jay walked over, picked her up, and walked to the bedroom.

Angeline knew what he was referring to at once.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, pattering on the fig tree as it played a symphony of love.

Gradually, Angeline fell into a deep sleep.

When dawn broke the next day, the sound of knocking could be heard from the courtyard.

Jay got up, put on his clothes, and came to the door of the villa with an umbrella. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Zayne and Josephine standing outside under the rain. Jay's expression sank and he shut the door without thinking.

Fortunately, Zayne reacted quick enough as he stuck one hand through the gap between the door and let out a blood-curdling scream, "Ah! My hand is broken."

"What are you doing here?" Jay asked in a gloomy tone.

"Here to see you!" Zayne growled.

Jay stopped closing the door and turned around to enter the house.

Zayne and Josephine followed him into the house while giggling. "Where's my sister?"

"Sleeping."

"I'm going to see her." Zayne walked toward the bedroom.

Jay chided, "No, you can't."

Zayne turned around and glared at Jay. "Be honest with me, what have you done to my sister? Why can't I see her? You haven't contacted us for so long. Do you not know that I'll worry about her?" He then ran to the bedroom after saying those words." I must see how terribly sick my sister has become."

In the bedroom, Angeline saw Zayne as soon as she poked out her head. She started yelling, "Argh! I'm not wearing anything. Get out!"

Following closely behind them, Jay immediately pushed Zayne and Josephine outside while roaring," Get out!"

He then locked the bedroom door from the inside.

Zayne muttered outside the door. "It's not like I haven't seen it before. What are you yelling at? I saw everything when you wore split-crotch pants when you were young."

"Shut up!" Angeline shouted shyly.

Zayne listened to his sister's sonorous voice when she scolded him and chuckled in delight. "Feel free to scold me all you want. I love listening to it."

He was happy because Angeline had the strength to scold him.
