Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 2066

Storm said, "Grayson has a natural fear of women."

Jenson was somewhat dumbfounded by this. "How s o?"

A trace of pity flashed across Storm's face. "It's perhaps related to his childhood experience."

Jenson was intrigued, and he focused on listening to Storm's story. "Grayson had long forgotten about what happened to him before he met Sir Ares. At the time, he was not so resistant toward women in general. But in recent years, he's slowly remembering the things that happened to him when he was a child, and it's triggering his phobia toward women."

"What happened to him?"

Storm said, "He never elaborated it. But it has something to do with his mother. It seems that because his mother had cheated, his father got into a fight with her and ultimately, his mother ended up killing his father."

Jenson was utterly taken aback.

Grayson was sealing up such a painful memory in his head?

Storm smiled bitterly and said, "Jens, in this world, a blessed person can live however they want to, but for

the ones who are unfortunate, they can only end up being servile."

Jenson domineeringly said, "There's no need for any of you to be servile."

Storm added bitterly, "That's true. On the surface, we're the Ghost members whom everyone admires, and our grandeur is infinite. But no one knows that when it's dark out, our hearts grow darker as well. I often wonder why my mom and dad abandoned me? And what kind of sordid history does my biological family have?"

Jenson silently patted Storm on the shoulder to comfort him.

"An unfortunate traumatic childhood takes a lifetime to heal, Jens," said Storm with a bitter smile on his face.

Jenson looked at Storm and asked, "How about you? What was your childhood like?"

His intuition told him that Storm's childhood might be even darker.

Storm showed a small smile and said, "Me? I... I can't remember what my parents look like anymore."

Jenson chose to be a listener.

Storm slowly spoke, "My mom and dad got a divorce not long after I was born, and my father was given custody of me. But after my dad got married to my stepmother, she didn't like me so I was tossed aside to my grandparents instead. Perhaps I was cursed for a lifetime because not long after, both of my grandparents died as well. My stepmother said that I was ominous, so my dad sold me off." Jenson felt a lump in his throat. "Your dad's utterly heartless."

Storm continued, "I was sold to a pair of barren farmers. They weren't rich, but they were good to me a t the beginning. Once they gave birth to their own child, however, they sold me off again." A trace of sadness shrouded Storm's eyes.

"Truthfully, I shouldn't have gone looking for my past. Finding out about it gave me even more sorrow."

Jenson said, "You still have me, Brother Storm."

Storm looked at Jens. He was still a young child, but his eyes were so clear and bright with a burning determination inside of them.

It was as if he was a towering tree with leaves that could shelter them from the wind and rain.

Instantly, somewhere in Storm's heart became extremely warm.

"Yeah."

From then on, Storm strengthened his confidence. He would follow Jenson forever.

Initially, Storm had been worrying about his future if Sir Ares were to retire. As for Jenson, because of the rumors that he was arrogant, cold, and unkind, Storm was a little worried that he and Jens would not get along well.

Now, it seemed like he had been overthinking it.

Underneath Jens' cold-hearted demeanor, there was a heart filled with love and a sense of righteousness.

After Grayson and the beautiful woman talked for a couple of minutes, Grayson decided to become the wet blanket. He stopped their little chats and kept turning around, asking for Jenson's help. Jenson was indifferent toward his pleas.

After all, worming his way into being friends with an unfamiliar woman was something he was not good at.
