Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose) -
Chapter 1885
Angeline looked sheepishly at Jay. "Well, actually, Grandma Boye does have a solution."
However, she was worried that Jay would not allow it.
Jay eyed Angeline suspiciously. "Oh? Let's hear it, then."
Angeline said with an extremely soft voice, "She has managed to divert Baby Zetty's attention."
Jay figured that it was a good thing to have Baby Zetty's attention diverted, though when he saw how crestfallen Angeline looked, he could tell that Grandma Boye must have asked Baby Zetty to do something unusual.
He waited silently for Angeline to continue. Angeline hesitated for a fleeting moment before saying to him awkwardly, "Jaybie, Baby Zetty has decided to take up Grandma Boye's mantle." Jay was momentarily stunned.
A hint of disappointment flashed across his mesmerizing face. "This child has always stood aloof from worldly affairs. Even if she only learns a smidgen of knowledge, she can still make a good career out of being a physician in Grand Asia next time. Baby Zetty is intelligent by nature and surpasses
all her peers. I'm just worried that she will follow Grandma Boye's footsteps, wandering from place to place her whole life."
Angeline said, "Baby Zetty was the one who took the initiative to beg Grandma Boye to teach her medicine. The child is extremely determined. We have already stopped her from dating Finn, and if we stop her from learning medicine now, I'm worried that she will struggle to find an outlet to vent her emotions. There's already something not quite right with her mental state these days. Her appetite has also increased greatly, and if we stop her from venting out her frustrations now, I'm afraid she will fall ill from this." Angeline was already in tears at this point.
Feeling sorry for Angeline, Jay reached out and wiped her tears with his fingertips. Then with much consideration, he comforted her and said, "Don't get so anxious first, Angeline. Your health isn't good, so don't get mad and make yourself sick. You must know that our child relies on you for support. When Baby Zetty is down, that's all the more reason you can't be disheartened, okay?"
Angeline leaned on him and nodded.
"I know."
In a residential building.
Finn was lying on Tammy's bed. The cast on his leg had been removed but he still found it difficult to walk properly.
Tammy asked him, "You've been cadging meals and lodging at my place for 40 days now. Now that your legs are almost healed, don't you think it's time you leave?"
Finn cushioned the back of his head with both his arms and looked at Tammy in a calm, unruffled manner. He then pestered her and said, "Do you know what line of work I'm in?" Tammy shook her head, and a hint of curiosity was flowing in her eyes.
"I'm Sir Ares' bodyguard. My job is extremely dangerous, so if I can't walk properly, I might get unlucky on my first day back at work and kick the bucket."
When Tammy heard him saying that he could kick the bucket, her gaze fell on Finn's mesmerizing face. She thought that she would never forgive herself if he died because of her.
"If that's the case, how many more days of rest do you need?" Tammy wanted to cry but had no tears. "You've used up all my money."
Finn picked up a piece of red apple from the fruit plate and popped it into his mouth, chewing it. He looked at the silly yet adorable Tammy heartlessly. Did she actually believe that he would kick the bucket? This young lady was just too innocent.
"Do you really have no money?" Finn asked.
Tammy nodded vigorously. "I'm still a student. My mother gave me some money when the semester started. That was supposed to be for my living expenses this entire semester, but I was unfortunate to crash into you. After paying for your medical expenses and spending the money to take care of you, I don't have any left."
Finn glanced at Tammy's inexpensive and ordinary clothes. He could tell that Tammy grew up in a really poor family.
Finn decided to help Tammy.
"Do you want a job?" Finn asked.
Tammy's eyes lit up. Poor college students like her would often look for part-time jobs, though the pay was usually really low.
Tammy chirped, "Are you going to introduce me to a job?"
Though very quickly, Tammy's expression sank. She glanced at Finn with disdain and smacked her lips, saying, "You're so poor yourself, so what kind of job could you possibly introduce to me?"
Finn thought about how worried he would be if a silly and adorable girl like her fell into other people's hands, so he said, "Become my nanny and I'll pay you for it."
Tammy tutted and said, "I've been your nanny for a month and haven't seen you take any initiatives to pay for anything, yet you still want me to be your nanny? Do you even have the money to pay for my salary?"
Finn was simply an incompetent and ignorant man in Tammy's eyes.
