Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose) -
Chapter 2061
Jasper and his siblings were dumbfounded. However, Jasper clearly refused to believe Jay's words and fumingly asked, "You're lying! My dad has a lot of money. He can't even use it now, so what else is he going to do with it if not leave it to us three?"
Jay replied, "He wants to leave it to his illegitimate daughter, Faith. Also, to support all of his other mistresses."
Jasper and his siblings were dumbfounded once again.
When she was alive, their mother had told them how heartless their father had been toward them. It was just that they never expected Jacob to be so wretched.
Jasper and his siblings' arrogance angered Jay, and he did not show them an ounce of respect. He snarled and said, "If it weren't because of Second Aunt, Grand Old Master Ares would've evicted you three money-grubbing siblings out of Tourmaline Estate altogether."
Julia spat out the words, "We're also members of the Ares family, so what reason do you have to drive us out Tourmaline Estate?"
Jay decided to let them know the cruel truth. "On the grounds that your father is not a descendant of the
Ares family."
As soon as he said this, the three siblings were stunned by the sudden turn of events.
Julia muttered, "What? We're not Areses?"
Even Jasper could not withstand such a huge blow and said, "You're bluffing."
Jay's thoughts were in turmoil due to their deliberate provocation, so he angrily scoffed. "Get lost! If you three continue being this impudent and acting so willfully to make a scene, you'll end up with nothing a t all."
At this moment, Jasper and his siblings dared not behave atrociously and gloomily left the place.
Grand Old Master Ares was standing behind a screen wall across the gate. He had listened to everything the three siblings just said. He was so indignant over it that he began slamming his walking cane. "Those three heartless b*stards shouldn't be allowed to stay in the Ares household."
When Jay turned around and heard Grandpa's words, he tried soothing him. "Calm down, Gramps. Now that Jasper and his siblings have learned their lessons, they'll surely turn over new leaves." Grand Old Master Ares looked at Jay and said in bewilderment, "Cheeky brat. You were once the ruthless, unwavering crown prince who never showed mercy to the enemy. Since when did you become so kind?"
Jay supported the grand old master over to sit by the wooden table inside the pavilion. Then, he smiled while saying, "Grandpa, I'll endure whatever I'm able to tolerate and help with whatever I can from now
on."
"And why is that?"
"Good karma. If I do more good deeds, I'll gather more blessings for my Angeline. It's so that she'll have
fewer illnesses and face fewer disasters in the future."
Grand Old Master smiled and said, "The dignified crown prince of Imperial Capital actually believes in these sort of illusionary things? Others will take you for a joke if you say these things out loud." However, the grand old master changed his mind and said with a smile, "But you're quite right. Angeline is carrying my darling great-grandchild in her belly, so for her sake, I'll try not to make things difficult for Jasper and his siblings."
Jay breathed a sigh of relief.
A week later, a message came from the court, stating that Jacob was sentenced to 13 years in prison and fined two million dollars.
Grand Old Master Ares passed down an order to disallow anyone from helping Jacob. The reason being it was a crime committed of his own volition, so he had to pay this sinful debt by himself.
However, in Jacob's view, he could very well sit in prison, but his penniless self was utterly powerless now due to the two million dollars fine.
Jacob had no other choice but to ask his children for help.
On that day, Jasper and his siblings came to visit him in prison. As soon as Jacob saw them, he pleaded," Jasper, Jo, Julia... Why did you guys come so late? Your dad is in jail, for God's sake. Have you helped me take care of things so that I can spend my days more comfortably in prison?"
Jasper looked at him coldly as if there was some distance between them. "Why should we be helping you, Dad?"
Jacob was furious and retorted, "What are you talking about? I'm your father. Why... Are the three of you... tossing me aside and letting me fend for myself?"
Upon realizing Jasper's intention, there was a change in Jacob's expression.
"Are all of you truly that heartless?"
