The longer Angeline spent in there, the more uneasy he would feel.

Angeline muttered to herself and wondered if she could sound Madam Charlotte out in just five minutes.

"Angeline..." Jay put Angelina's hand on his chest. She could feel his heart drumming wildly.

Was this brat using this method to act like a spoiled child in front of her?

"Okay, okay, five minutes," Angeline said.

Jay grinned from ear to ear, and without warning, he planted a kiss on Angelina's bare forehead.

"Love you."

Angeline flushed with embarrassment before turning around and entering the room with the servant with her head dropped low.

Jay stood at the door like a wooden puppet.

When Jenson and Baby Robbie heard Daddy saying honeyed words to Mommy, their faces broke out in a grin.

Daddy, the imposing man with a gigantic stature that resembled a divine being, actually knew how to act like a spoiled child in front of Mommy?

The servant brought Angeline to Madam Charlotte's bed. The room might be pitch-black, but the street lights were shining particularly bright outside of the window tonight. Angeline quickly got used to the darkness and spotted the wall lamp with the help of the hazy street light that shone in through the window.

Angeline switched on the wall lamp. Standing before the bed, she stared at Madam Charlotte who was sleeping soundly.

She called out to her gently, "Aunt Charlotte."

Madam Charlotte made no response.

Angeline called out again, "Aunt Charlotte, it's Angeline. I'm here to see you."

Madam Charlotte made no response, but Angeline could see her eyelashes quivering.

Clearly, Madam Charlotte was not asleep.

A lightbulb lit up in Angeline's head. She decided to anger her. "Aunt Charlotte, Uncle Jacob told me that your illness stems from the heart. That it's triggered by anger."

Angeline observed Madam Charlotte's reaction as she spoke. She noticed Madam Charlotte's face twitching imperceptibly.

Was she responding?

Angeline tried harder. "Aunt Charlotte, logically speaking, I'm in no position to tell you what to do since you're my senior, but I'm someone who has been through storms, so allow me to be frank with you. Men are all animals that think with their lower halves. It's in their nature to love young and gorgeous ladies.

Uncle Jacob has so many mistresses and doesn't even care about you. Why bother living for his sake?

"If he likes to have fun, let him be. You just need to safeguard your position as the Ares' second missus. You have money and power and should live the rest of your life for yourself while making plans for your children. That's way better than wasting your

precious time on a heartless and cruel man like Uncle Jacob, right?"

At this point, tears flowed out of the corners of Madam Charlotte's eyes.

Astonished, Angeline quickly held Madam Charlotte's hand.

"Aunt Charlotte?"

Suddenly, there was something in her hand. Secretly astounded, Angeline hid the item into her sleeve and said a few more words to Madam Charlotte before standing up to leave.

When Jay saw Angeline coming out, he quickly pulled her to him and scrutinized her several times with his sharp eagle gaze before breathing a sigh of relief. He pulled her into his arms and said in an aggrieved manner, "Not all men think with their lower halves, Angeline." 1

Angeline was caught between laughter and tears. The words she said earlier were not spoken after careful thinking. They were said on purpose for Madam Charlotte to hear and were not universally applicable a tall.

"I know. Jaybie is someone who thinks with his brain." Angeline consoled the wounded man.

"Not all men like young and pretty ladies." Jay sounded particularly serious. "I admit that I did like young and pretty girls when I was younger, but now I like pregnant women who are temperamental..." Angeline raged, saying, "You're asking for a beating, huh?"

Jay held Angeline in his arms and left while laughing.

The servant closed the door and left.
