He used all the power that Imperial Capital had to offer, but the results still chilled him to the bone.

It was as if Angeline Severe had vanished into thin air and disappeared from Imperial Capital.

Jay felt extreme remorse for such an ending. He finally understood how it felt to be regretful over something.

"Angeline, I'm sorry.

"Please come back, I'll do whatever you want.

"Even if it's a suicide mission, as long as you're willing to accompany me, I'll always be by your side. If you live, I live. If you die, I die."

In the cold, desolate night, an endless stream of tears poured from Jay's eyes.

Men cried easily too. You just needed to know what hurt them.

Three days later, Grayson, who had been out and about, returned to report to Jay.

"Mr. Ares, we've investigated all exits in Imperial Capital and have not found any suspicious vehicles. By theory, Miss Severe should still be in Imperial City. However, our men have scoured all hotels and rentals but no information about her has been obtained."

Jay felt full-body chills. His blood-shot eyes bulged as he looked toward Grayson. "What about the test results on that pool of blood?"

Grayson had an uncomfortable expression on his face as he stuttered, "Mr. Ares, we've done a genetic match on the blood. It's been confirmed that it belongs to Miss Severe."

"Ahh!" Like a lion that had been woken from its slumber, Jay let out a roar that could shatter the heavens.

"Who's the murderer?" he asked through clenched teeth.

Grayson said, "We've investigated the security footage. There was only one vehicle that passed through Imperial Capital during that time. However, its license plate became obscured by something reflective at the most critical moment. We couldn't get a good look at i t."

A violent look appeared on Jay's handsome face. "In the entire Imperial Capital, which family do you think someone who could escape this with complete anonymity would come from?" Grayson was startled. "The Ares family."

Jay did not have any concrete evidence. However, he was overcome with anger and clung on to his ironclad principle that it was better to make a mistake than to miss a kill. He knew that the Ares family had many secrets and the members could successfully escape after an accident. Thus, he showed no mercy when pinning them as one of the main suspects in the case.

"I want to make a trip to the Ares household," Jay said.

Grayson replied, "I'll make the necessary arrangements."

When Jay's Rolls-Royce pulled up at Tourmaline Estate, they were just in time to see Jack's Lincoln limousine driving out of the estate.

When he saw Jay, Jack purposefully stepped out of the car and walked over to stand in front of him as he said mockingly, "Jay, I heard that you've been looking for someone lately and have had no time to tend to your company. As your father, let me remind you of this. A man should not be tangled up in familial affairs, else you'll end up throwing the helve after the hatchet. It won't be pretty."

Jay glared vehemently at Jack. "I'm not like you, putting profits before everything else."

When you took a good look at his life, Jack Ares had not been interested in romantic love since he was young. He was also extremely indifferent toward his family and was set on becoming rich and famous. Jay could not think of any reason where he would want to harm Angelina, so after exchanging a few words, he had Grayson drive him into Tourmaline Estate.

In the end, the Rolls-Royce pulled to a stop at Chateau

de Selene.

Accompanied by Grayson and Storm, Jay barged into Chateau de Selene.

"Where's Grand Old Master Ares?" Jay asked coldly, a nasty expression coming over his face when he spotted the butler.

The butler was startled. He was probably not accustomed to the showdown that occurred every time the grandfather and grandson met.
