Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 1843

Chateau de Selene.

Angeline anxiously waited for Jay to come home, not knowing why he brought the necklace out.

When Jay came back, Angeline rushed to the door to greet him. "Welcome home!" She then carefully took off his coat for him.

Jay sat on the couch, and she began massaging his shoulders as well as pounding his back.

Although Jay looked expressionless, he was in a very good mood. He had taken the necklace to Grand Old Master Yorks to verify its authenticity and learned that the necklace his mother gave to Angeline was indeed the ancestral necklace of the Yorks family. His gloomy and stifled heart had brightened up for some reason.

He knew that he longed for a tender mother and wanted to be a filial son. He wanted a peaceful and harmonious family. This was something he dared not hope for in the past, but now, thanks to Angelina's efforts, he was beginning to look forward to it.

He looked forward to sitting down to eat and chat with his family harmoniously just like tens of thousands of families out there.

When Angeline noticed how quiet he was, she could not figure out if he was still mad at her. She asked cautiously, "Where's the necklace, Jaybie?"

Jay took out the necklace from his pocket and handed it to Angeline, to which she accepted with delight before placing it in the jewelry box like it was some sort of treasure. She finally went upstairs with the box.

When she came downstairs, Jay teased her, "I used to think that girls shouldn't be too materialistic and have always tried to suppress your interest in this area. I regret it now. Look at you, you're treating cheap jewelry like it's some sort of treasure."

Angeline said with a smile, "I don't treasure just any jewelry. I only love this set of jewelry in particular."

Jay grew envious. "Is this your favorite jewelry?"

Angeline was just about to nod when she noticed the dangerous gleam in Jay's eyes. She quickly changed her answer. "Of course not. My favorite jewelry is the necklace you gave me, Jaybie."

Jay was happy with her answer and stretched out his hands toward her. "Come here, let me hug you."

When Angeline sat next to him, he pulled her head into his arms and closed his eyes to rest.

Angeline had no idea how long he was going to hold her like that. She just thought it was usual for him to remain silent like this.

"How are you getting along with her, Angeline?" Jay asked in a hoarse voice after a very long time.

Angeline thought for a while and said, "In the beginning, we were both very cautious with each other, but Mom still mustered the courage to apologize to me. She said she felt extremely sorry for the things she did. I told her that I forgive her and now we're like friends. We tell each other everything and would occasionally joke around too."

"What do you talk to each other about?" Jay asked curiously.

Angeline said, "Mom knows that we're getting married and she's over the moon. She wishes us happiness and health."

Jay buried his handsome face in the crook of Angeline's neck, and at that moment, his eyes turned damp for some reason.

Angeline continued, "Jaybie, Grandma Boye said that Mom's short-temper and paranoia were a result of her tragic experience. She was imprisoned in the underground palace and suffered mental torture. She was later imprisoned in the military intelligence division and suffered physical torture. Plus, she's having menopause right now, so her hormones are terribly imbalanced right now. It wasn't easy for her. Just forgive her."

Jay did not say a word. His heart, however, hurt a little.

He was exasperated with his own mother.

However, after listening to his mother's tragic

experience, he felt sorry for her too.

"You haven't witnessed how much she has changed. Under Grandma Boye's meticulous care, she's more and more energetic now. Even her muscle atrophy condition has improved significantly. She now exudes a noble aura and you can sense the loving glow from her eyes."

Angeline suggested cautiously, "Why don't we go and visit her tomorrow?"

Jay shook his head. "I'm not going."

He opened his eyes and saw the disappointment in Angeline's eyes. Jay cupped her cheek and planted an affectionate kiss on her forehead.

He said softly, "Angeline, if you want to go to Carefree Garden, then go ahead. I won't stop you any more, but you must promise me that you will not trust her too easily. Also, if you're going there, I want you to keep your phone switched on and be available at all times. When I give you a call, I want you to answer it straight away."

Angeline was caught between laughter and tears." You're guarding against her."

Jay said agonizingly, "I can't let you take anymore risks."
