Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 2138

The mountain was quiet, yet Zayne's anguish wails echoed throughout the valley.

His voice ultimately reached the ears of the older woman and the young man who were walking on the narrow road. The old woman looked up at the house that was high up on the mountain and when she noticed the familiar figure, the old woman became despondent.

'Is that Daddy?'

Hearing the voice of Uncle Zayne, Baby Zetty was confident that the person outside the courtyard of the house in that high place was the person she had been missing for a long time.

It was just that the mountain road was winding and narrow. It would take her a long time to walk over even though it was somewhat close by.

Gale noticed that Baby Zetty's eyes had turned red and could not help but ask curiously, "Do you perhaps know them, Sis Zetty?"

Baby Zetty glanced at her hunched and white-haired self, thinking how distressed her father would be to see her in this old shell.

Baby Zetty vigilantly reminded Gale, "Remember, Gale.

From now on, you must never reveal my real name."

Gale nodded. "Okay."

Baby Zetty withdrew her arms from Gale's helping hand and wanted to run toward Daddy as fast as she could. She wanted to let him know that she was healthy. It was just that her old body refrained her from doing so.

As soon as Baby Zetty retracted her hand from Gale, she staggered and fell to the ground.

Baby Zetty was filled with despair as she said, "Oh my God, being old is such a drag!"

Gale helped her up again and exclaimed, "Let me lend you a hand, Grandma."

Baby Zetty no longer refused this time.

Jay looked at the two figures who were approaching them on the winding road. When he vaguely saw Baby Zetty and Gale coming up, Jay proceeded to frown.

"Odd. It's a white-haired old lady with a young teenage boy. How are they walking around Silent Town without a problem?"

Zayne mocked, "Well, they have legs as well, so why can't they?"

Jay said, "Silent Town is filled with poisonous exotic flowers and plants, yet they don't seem to have been poisoned by them." Zayne had an epiphany. "Perhaps they're well-versed i

n medical skills as well?"

Cole became the party pooper and said, "Or they're well-versed in the art of poison."

Zayne immediately became disheartened.

Once Baby Zetty arrived at the stone steps of the house, she was so tired that she started panting heavily.

Jay walked over and handed her a bottle of water. "Do you want any water, Granny?" 1

Baby Zetty looked at Jay in bewilderment when she heard him calling her 'Granny'.

"That's unacceptable. Please call me Lady Winter," said Baby Zetty.

How could she stand her own daddy calling her' Granny'?

Jay looked at Baby Zetty in scrutiny at the moment, feeling like he had seen her somewhere before.

Baby Zetty quickly turned her head away for fear that Jay would come to realize something. Jay felt that he was not being appropriate either and merely narrowed his sharp gaze while saying, "Lady Winter?" Jay was a flexible person, so he was able to call out her name very naturally.

When Zayne crawled over and leaned his body on the stone steps, he looked over at Baby Zetty before saying with a smile, "Sir Ares, did you call her a lady? How is she still a lady?"

Baby Zetty was secretly furious. Her damned uncle was still a sh*thead.

Baby Zetty explained, "Even though I'm old now, I've never gotten married. Would it hurt you to call me a lady?"

Zayne was the one courting a rebuff, so he merely resentfully shut his mouth.

Gale assisted Baby Zetty to walk up the stone steps. As the steps were simply too high, Baby Zetty was struggling to go up.

Jay extended his chivalrous hand to help her.

The moment his hand touched Baby Zetty's, Jay felt astonished. Why did it feel like he had a natural connection to her?

Baby Zetty went up the stone steps and ultimately arrived at the front courtyard of the house.

Seeing that everyone had collapsed and was lying still on the ground, Baby Zetty was stupefied.

"What happened to everyone?"

Zayne furiously pointed at the grandmother and granddaughter duo who were tied up nearby, snarling. "That vile, murderous Poison Granny over there poisoned us!"
