Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 2015

However, Finn's following words had Tammy Sue crashing to the ground.

"Since you're no longer my maid, Tammy, I think we should live separately for the time being. Having you live with me before marriage was irresponsible of me because I don't know when I'll be able to marry you..."

All color was drained from Tammy's face. Going out of control, she snarled. "Why are you treating me like this? You said that when Baby Zetty comes back, you'll have a good talk with her so that she'll happily give her blessing for our marriage. So why are you going back on your word?"

Finn was filled with self-blame when he said, "I'm truly sorry. At that time, I really thought that Zetty would be back very soon. But today, I heard from Jenson that Baby Zetty might not return for the next seven to eight years. I think my promise to Zetty is unfair to you, so I'm giving you a chance to choose again."

Tammy was stunned as she muttered, "Seven to eight years?"

Finn said, "Perhaps even longer. So if you want to leave me, I'll not blame you for it. Plus, I'll give you a large sum of money to ensure you'll live a worry-free life."

Tammy sat on the sofa dejectedly as all of her thoughts went blank.

After quite some time, Tammy asked aggrievedly, "Is your promise to her that important?"

Finn answered, "Yes."

"You're not willing to break your promise to her, but you're turning your back on me. Why, Finn Gallagher?" Tammy was falling apart.

If Finn had been in a sober state and his willpower was still intact, perhaps he would not be able to mutter these disgraceful words. However, relying on the strength of the alcohol in his body, he completely lost his sense of propriety and blurted out everything that he had been keeping locked in his head.

"Zetty is my whole life. I'm willing to turn the whole world upside down for her. So what if I turn my back on you?"

Tammy was dumbstruck.

At that moment, she knew how badly she had lost in the face of Zetty.

She became aware of how low her position in Finn's heart was.

When Finn sobered up from the alcohol, it was already the following day.

Tammy had packed up her belongings in a huff and was about to leave.

Finn had wholly erased the scenes from last night when he drunkenly babbled out the truth to Tammy from his mind. Seeing that Tammy was about to leave, he was completely bewildered. "Where are you going?"

Tammy scoffed. "Didn't you tell me to leave?"

Finn was slightly stunned.

Now that he had sobered up, he was back to being that meticulous and scrupulous genius Finn Gallagher.

"What did I say to you yesterday?" Finn asked tentatively.

"You told me that our agreement is terminated, and I don't have to be your maid anymore."

Finn gave it a thought and nodded, saying, "That's right. It's no longer suitable for you to be my maid."

Tammy wept and sobbed as she said, "You even asked me to move out and broke up with me. Then, you said that Baby Zetty is your whole life... And you'd rather turn your back on the world than break your promise to her."

Finn,"..."

Why had he not given it a thought before saying such disgraceful words out loud?

Tammy was flustered and exasperated, quickly losing control of her emotions. Finally, she spoke while exaggerating things, "Finn Gallagher, since you care about Baby Zetty so much, why on earth did you tarnish me?! The person you love is clearly Zetty!"

Finn's complexion turned even uglier.

He never expected Tammy to dig up the question he had never pondered so deeply about before after just one drunken night.

Was he in love with Baby Zetty?

Were his feelings for her genuinely love?

How could he...

How could an adult man like him swindle the heart of an underaged girl?
