Jacob asked suspiciously, "Why is he here at this hour?"

Jacob had no choice but to greet Grand Old Master Ares at the door.

Mammoth Courtyard's front door.

Despite walking over with a smile, Jacob voiced out the doubts he had in his heart, "Father, JJ, why are you here?"

Grand Old Master Ares said, "Tourmaline Estate is in disharmony recently. I can't feel at ease, so I brought J J over to patrol. I just arrived at Mammoth Courtyard when I heard Julia's cries. My hearing isn't as good anymore but I heard Julia saying someone was transferring out the assets. What's going on?"

Jacob's back was drenched in sweat as he said, "Oh Dad, don't listen to the crap Julia says. Her mother is sick and has left her out in the cold. That's why she's saying all these heartless things out of anger." Julia muttered, "I'm not saying these things out of anger. I heard that Mom transferred out the assets..."

Grand Old Master Ares asked, "How's your wife feeling?"

Jacob sighed. "Sigh, her illness came like an

avalanche. It happened so abruptly. She doesn't even have the strength to get out of bed."

Jay said, "If Aunt Charlotte is so sick, why didn't you inform us earlier? We could hire an expert to check on her."

Jacob replied, "Sigh, her illness isn't treatable."

"Why?"

Jacob explained, "She's narrow-minded and extremely jealous. She refuses to live in harmony with the other women of mine, and it made her sick."

Grand Old Master Ares glanced at Angeline and said," Angelina, go and check on Aunt Charlotte. It's almost the new year now. Ask her to take care of herself and stop being angry."

Angeline responded obediently, "Yes, Grandpa."

Jacob tried to stop her but since Grand Old Master Ares had spoken up, he was in no position to say anything else.

Besides, Jacob did not see Jenson around, hence he thought that Grand Old Master Ares and Jay were only here by coincidence. As such, he did not think much of the matter. He then ordered his servant, "Take Madam Ares inside."

Angeline had just walked a few steps when Jay caught up to her with several strides. He held Angeline carefully and said, "I'll come with you."

Jacob's expression fell abruptly.

"Come here, JJ. Drink tea with me and your grandpa."

Jay was only concerned about his wife, saying, "Give me a moment, Uncle Jacob. I'll join you once I've sent Angeline inside."

Jacob was in no position to say anything, hence he could only invite Grand Old Master Ares inside to have a seat.

"Come in and have a seat, Dad."

Grand Old Master Ares nodded. "Mm."

Just as Grand Old Master and Jay were keeping Jacob occupied, Jenson and Baby Robbie had long snuck into Madam Charlotte's room.

It was difficult to squeeze their way in from the tiny window in the bathroom. Although the children had long limbs, it was fortunate that they were slightly skinny, hence they successfully snuck inside and each found a place to hide.

Jenson hid under the bed.

Baby Robbie hid behind a wardrobe.

Soon, they heard footsteps approaching.

They then heard Jay's gentle voice. "Angeline, don't take up too much time. I'll be waiting for you outside. Don't make me wait too long."

Jenson could not restrain his smile.

Daddy had sent Sis Andy and Sis Roxie away to serve a s Mommy's personal bodyguard himself.

Angeline reassured him, saying, "Don't worry. I won't make you wait too long. Ten minutes at most." "Five minutes," Jay commanded domineeringly.
