Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 1817

Angeline took it while trembling and opened it, only to see it was the jade jewelry made by Jaybie. It was the one with the strands of their hair inside of it.

Angeline looked at Chloe, tears streaming down her face. She threw herself into Chloe's arms and exclaimed emotionally, "Thank you, Mom! You finally accept me."

Chloe patted her on the back and was choked up as she said, "Silly child, you had to go through such an arduous journey just for my mere approval."

Boye was standing in the living room downstairs where she could hear Chloe and Angeline weeping bitter tears upstairs. She looked up in a daze before saying, "Our Angeline's hard times are finally over." Grandpa replied, "Is that so? It truly didn't come easily."

At lunch, Angeline pushed Chloe's wheelchair down the stairs.

Grandpa teased Angeline, saying, "If you don't go home to have your meal, aren't you afraid that your Jaybie will come here looking for you?"

Angeline realized the severity of the situation and panicked while saying, "Crap! I'm done for."

She quickly took out her phone and called Josie anxiously.

As soon as the call was connected, Angeline told Josephine, "Josie, if your brother calls you and asks about me, tell him that you're with me."

On the other line.

Josie was looking at the big devil who was sitting on her sofa with a dark expression. Due to her years of friendship with Angeline, Josie had naturally tried every means to help conceal Angelina's lies. "Sis Angeline, you're just visiting Grandma Boye at Carefree Garden. Why didn't you bring me along?" Josie asked in a low, muffled voice.

Angeline was slightly startled. "What's wrong with your voice? Did you catch a cold?"

Josie snarled. "No."

Angeline was a little confused, "Then, why are you talking like something's stuck in your throat?"

Josie said somewhat speechlessly, "Try and guess why."

Jay extended his arm, glaring at Josie sharply.

Josie said to Angeline, "Good luck!" She then handed the phone to Jay.

Jay's low and icy voice was heard on the other line. "Angeline Severe, you're getting braver nowadays. Did you lie to Jaybie's face without so much as blinking?"

Angeline swallowed her saliva and ultimately decided she might as well press her luck further. She said," Hello? What did you say, Josie? My signal isn't good over here. Can you hear me? Hello? I'm hanging up now."

"Angeline Severe, don't you dare-"

Beep, beep!

Once she hung up the phone, Angeline's expression looked as if the end of the world was upon her.

She was no longer in the mood to eat and stood up while saying to Grandma Boye and the others, "I have to go home and humbly ask for forgiveness now. Goodbye."

Grandpa teased her, "Since you've offended your Jaybie anyway, why not stay for a meal with us? It's not too late to ask for forgiveness after eating."

Boye added, "He's right. Your Jaybie is merely a paper tiger in front of you. Once you coax him, he'll forgive you."

Angeline said, "It's bad for his body if he gets too upset. I can't let him be angry for too long... It's better if I head back now."

Then, she left in despair.

Chloe chased after her and shouted, "Angeline, drive slowly!" "I got it, Mom!"

After Angeline left, Boye looked at the table filled with delicious delicacies and said to Grandpa, "Next time, there's no need to cook Angeline's portion." Grandpa replied, "I know."

Chloe merely smiled.

Angeline sneaked back into Tourmaline Estate and went straight to Josie's Flying Moon Cottage. Jay, Josie, and Zayne were having their meal together. When Angeline pushed the door to enter, Jay was already looking at her with resentment.

"So it turns out you know the way home?"

Angeline smiled at him bashfully. She was standing awkwardly at the door, waiting for Jay to reprimand her.

Instead, Jay only ignored her with a cold face.

She had already made him angry by lying to him, but then she went as far as to reject his phone call afterward.
