Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 662

Josie looked at her blankly like a puppet.

"Mom, you look like you're in a good mood," Josie said.

Her mom smiled and said, "I heard that you got better. Why wouldn't I be happy?"

Josie faked a laugh.

She was violated by Hiroshi and Sis Angeline took the fall for her. Everything that piled up and everything that happened was not anything to be happy about.

However, her mother could not hide her feelings.

Her mother sat by the bed, took Josie's hand, and started the process of brainwashing her implicitly and tactfully.

"Josie, listen to me. Both your brother and your dad think that your thing with Hiroshi is going to be a scandal. Therefore, it's better to move on with it as soon as possible. Both of them are trying their best to pressure the police. Once the thing with the police is settled, we'll be hearing the case in court the day after tomorrow."

Josie sneered.

'Jay won't be able to bear to leave Sis Angeline inside for too long, so obviously, he'll use whatever efforts he can to get her out as soon as possible.'

As for that father of hers, why would he care?

"He thinks that it's a scandal? But he's the one who chose this fantastic husband for me," Josie sneered.

Her mother looked a little embarrassed.

However, she knew that Josie had always been kind and simple, so she racked her brain to make excuses for Jack.

"Your dad was also deceived by Hiroshi. He thought that since the Titus family was well-off, you wouldn't suffer after marrying into their family," her mother said in a guileful manner.

Josie smiled bitterly. "I'm afraid he thinks that this simple-minded daughter of his could climb up the Titus family and become a cornerstone for his business. Perhaps he'd be satisfied if that were to happen." Her mother felt very awkward. She did not expect this stupid daughter of hers to see through her.

If this situation was another time, her mother would just do a bad job of perfunctory reassuring her before leaving straight away.

However, her mother had come with an agenda, so she put up a brave front and continued to try to unravel Josie.

"Your dad has just taken over Ares Enterprises recently and it's been tiring for him, which explains his temper. Don't take those nasty things he said to

you previously to heart. Josie, listen to me. We should focus on the key thing right now, which is Hiroshi's case. We should deal with this without other distractions." Josie knew that her mother had other intentions. She listened quietly.

Most of the time, it was her mother doing all the talking. She babbled endlessly, "Hiroshi is seriously injured in the hospital. If he dies, the murderer will have to pay for it.

"There's evidence that both you and Angeline were at the scene and are the biggest suspects now. Since Angeline is an outsider, it doesn't matter who hurt Hiroshi that day. After going to court, you'll have to grit your teeth and prove that Angeline did it. It's the only way for you to be safe, okay?"

Josie looked up at her mother. "Mom, are you saying that I should pin the murder on Sis Angeline?"

Her mother nodded.

Josie felt a chill. Her mother had always been a kind and compassionate woman in her head. This was the first time she saw the other side of her. Josie was terrified.

"She's my sister-in-law. Mom, is it right if we treat her this way?" Josie hoped to wake up her mother's conscience.

Her mother was disappointed at how slow she was and said angrily, "What part of it don't you understand? Only one person can live between the two of you. I'm your mother. Of course, I'd choose to protect you.

"Aren't you afraid that Jay would be heartbroken?" Josie asked.

Her mother said, "Jay will be fine even if she's not in his life anymore, but if I don't have you, I won't be able to live life anymore."

Josie stared at her blankly with a blurred vision, as if nothing was real at that moment.

"Mom, thank you. I know what to do."

"Good girl." Her mother smiled with comfort.

After her mother left. Josie wiped the cold sweat from her head.

Fortunately, Jay had reassured her before. Otherwise, she would have been blinded by her mother's sugar-coated bombs.
