Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 1958

Jay said to her with great gratitude, "Thank you, Angeline. Thank you for coming back. Otherwise, I can't begin to imagine how many stupid things I would've done in my lifetime."

Angeline turned around and hugged him tightly.

"I won't ever leave you again, Jaybie."

Jay nodded gently. "Yeah, I know. I know that you won't leave me."

Angeline was even more melancholic when she said," Even a strong-willed person like you has done so many preposterous and foolish things for a love that you couldn't obtain, let alone our darling Baby Zetty."

Jay said, "Just wait, Angeline. A few years later, our Baby Zetty will break out of her cocoon and become a butterfly. She'll soon be reborn."

Angeline aggrievedly looked at him. Sometimes, she honestly wondered where Jay's confidence came from that he was so determined about Baby Zetty being able to find herself again instead of losing herself completely.

Jay continued, "She's our daughter. You have to have faith in her."

Angeline could only sigh weakly.

Then, Jay said, "It's getting late, Angeline. Let's get some rest. Tomorrow is the day Jenson will be taking over Ares Group. I'm afraid it'll be another exhausting day for you."

Being parents came with inexhaustible worries, after all.

Angeline was worried about Baby Zetty's emotional wounds, and she was also concerned about Jenson embarking on a path to unpeaceful and unstable life after taking over Ares Group.

Angeline sighed in a lonesome manner. "Why can't my children live happy and carefree lives like other ordinary children?"

Jay replied, "They were born into the Ares family.

They have riches and wealth that ordinary children don't possess. So naturally, they have to bear the hardships that come with the glory." Angeline understood the concept of interdependence between good and bad things, but she could not stop worrying about Jenson.

That night, Jenson had a hard time falling asleep as well.

He stood quietly in front of the French window, looking up at the beautiful yet incomplete crescent moon in the sky.

Jenson knew that he needed to be cautious every second from now on because there would be others waiting to go after him. Sure enough, when it was the dead of night...

Jenson saw a figure hurrying over right downstairs. Then, he smiled maliciously and jumped out of the window with a rope.

In a blink of an eye, Jenson arrived right in front of the dark figure.

"Why is my favorite Grandpa Jacob inside Chateau de Selene in the middle of the night? What are your intentions?" Jenson's voice was cold.

Jacob was so enraged when he saw Jenson and glared at him fumingly, asking, "You came right on time, Jenson. You're exactly who I'm looking for. Unfortunately, at this moment, assassins are infiltrating the other castles, so I'd like to know what's going on."

Jenson pretended to be surprised. "Oh no, Grandpa Jacob. Then I think you should be asking yourself, what kind of shameful deeds have you done recently?"

A sense of panic flashed across Jacob's eyes, but he quickly recovered his calmness. "You're about to become the person in charge of the entire Ares family, so you're not going to care about the other branches' matters anymore?"

Jenson said, "I remember now. When I was in the mall shopping this afternoon, I stumbled into some assassins as well. But those dunces were too stupid, so I easily caught one of them."

Then, Jenson cast him a hostile glance and grimly said, "I told him that if he wanted to survive, he has to make a move against those instigators behind the scenes who sent those assassins to me and do the same to all their children and grandchildren. Those people wanted to cripple me, so I'm merely retaliating. I think it's what they call scaring your opponents into hiding?"

Jacob swallowed his saliva. He finally understood that they were the cause of the disaster that befell them tonight.

They had shot themselves in the foot from trying to shoot a rock. Moreover, they had only wanted Jenson to suffer a slight disability, yet they never expected Jenson's retaliation to be so cruel.
