Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 502

Josie wailed, saying, "No way, Jay. You're the one who dragged me home and now you're telling me to go back? Since when did you become so unprincipled?

"I'm not going." Josephine was displeased.

"You have to go back." His tone left no room for rejection.

"I'll go back tomorrow morning, okay?" Drowsy with sleep, Josephine wanted nothing more than to flop back onto the bed. She felt her frustration rise at Jay's impolite request. Jay wore an uncompromisable expression.

Hurt filled Josephine's eyes. "You're playing favorites, Jay. Ever since we were young, you've been playing favorites."

Jay froze at the words that came out of her mouth.

Josephine's claim was not baseless when he had indeed spent most of this life fixated on Angeline.

As a result, he took no knowledge of Josephine's feelings.

However, he did not regret doing so as Angeline was worth every bit of his heart.

"Come with me." Then, he turned around and walked away.

Slouching, Josephine followed him into the study where Jay motioned for her to read his laptop display.

Reading the texts from 'Chasing Men While Lugging A Saber', she found every line laced with regard for herself. Josephine's eyes watered.

Jay spoke softly, "She's very worried about you. She can't sleep without you back."

Josie nodded, choking from the onslaught of emotions she felt. "I know, I know... Sister-in-law has always been good to me."

Memories of Rose selflessly saving her at Tourmaline Estate surfaced in Josephine's mind.

Followed by the memory of how Rose risked everything to save her again back in the ruins.

Josephine bawled. "I owe her too much, Jay."

"That's a topic for another day. Let's get you back first." Jay interrupted his sister.

Josie nodded.

It was around one in the morning when Jay sent Josephine to Grand Asia's staff residency.

After Josephine alighted, Jay suddenly called out of her, "Josie!"

Josephine turned around.

Jay continued, "Your Sister-in-law will never take

away the love I have reserved for you."

Josephine grinned. "Yeah."

Then, she left happily.

Opening the doors to enter, Josephine found Rose sitting cross-legged on the bed. The sight of the other had Rose throwing a pillow at her head. "Where have you been, you little rascal?" Josephine caught the pillow and climbed onto Rose's bed with a silly smile on her face. "I'm sleeping with you tonight, Sister-in-law. I'll warm your bed."

Rose soon fell asleep.

The following day.

Rose had prepared breakfast while Josephine still snored away.

Leaving for work, Rose left Josephine a small line of text. 'Hey, Josie. When you're free, could you help me ask where this friend of yours does his screen protector business? I'd like to visit him as thanks for talking with me last night!'

Josephine gaped in shock when she woke up and read the text.

What happened last night? Since when did her shy Sister-in-law ever take the first step to meet people?

Exhilarated, Josie called Jay. "Jay..."

Jay immediately interrupted, saying, "I'm busy. I'll call you back."

Josephine responded with an impatient shout, "Sister-in-law wants to meet you!"

Jay froze.

He finally muttered after a long pause, "What did you say?"

Josephine said, "I thought you were busy? Go work first!"

Jay clenched his jaw. "Finish your sentence, Josephine Ares."

Josie snorted with a tease, saying, "I thought you said you were busy? I should've known. Matters involving Sister-in-law will always be your top priority.

"Anyway, Sister-in-law left me a text this morning with a request to ask you where you stick phone screen protectors. She says she wants to visit you as thanks for talking with her last night." As thanks for talking with her last night?

Jay smiled. She was a sweet child who knew to repay others' kindness. Not bad, not bad at all.

Josephine doubled over in laughter. "I can't believe you lied to her about sticking phone screen protectors. I'd like to see how you follow up with this lie, Jay!"
