Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 797

The next morning, Jay's low-key luxury Rolls-Royce appeared at the gates of the Severe family's compound.

Finn had just honked the horn when the three munchkins rushed downstairs immediately to open the door for Jay after they heard the familiar sound. "Daddy's here!"

Lady Severe and Old Master Severe limped to the door to welcome their guest as well.

Finn opened the car's rear door and Jay's wheelchair moved its way down the paved ramp.

Jay looked around him and revealed a slightly forlorn look on his face when he did not see the person he was dying to meet.

"Where's Angeline?" he asked.

Lady Severe flashed a loving smile. "She's still having a lie-in."

How could Angeline possibly have a good sleep? She might look calm after how George treated her last night, but she must be actually bleeding inside.

George wanted her to resign from her position as Severe Enterprise's executive president and even planned to cut off ties with her. Angeline finally understood the pain that Josephine felt when she was abandoned by her close relatives.

Jay was talking downstairs, his voice always so enchanting. His deep and magnetic voice could give anyone an ear orgasm.

Angelina, however, did not want to hear Jay's voice at this moment, let alone see him when she was in such a wretched state. As such, she ran to the door and locked it.

Like bullets, Jay's voice seemed to be able to penetrate all copper and iron walls as his domineering voice entered her ears.

"I'm here to see the kids and talk to Mr. Severe about the termination of the project between Grand Asia and Severe Enterprise."

Angelina smiled bitterly. He would come for the children and for business, but never for her.

She had forced herself not to pay attention to Jay's voice, but she just could not do it. Every word he said, every stress and intonation, entered her ears clearly.

She squeezed her eyes shut, and his breath-taking, dashing face popped up in her mind.

Though when she turned her head to look at her wretched self in the mirror, she felt a strong sense of inferiority once more.

Finally, she sat up on the bed, smoothed out her loose hair, and tied it into a bun. After a quick washing up, she grabbed her purse and walked downstairs.

She needed to go to her dad's company to handle her resignation procedure, so she sneaked out the back door lest Jay saw her in this wretched state.

When she got downstairs, she heard Jay's cold voice coming from the living room. "Old Master Severe, Grand Asia is now under fire from all sides ourselves, hence all Severe Enterprise's investment will be withdrawn and all projects will be terminated with immediate effect."

Angeline was startled. Severe Enterprise was rising steadily in recent years thanks to the strong support offered by Grand Asia. If Grand Asia suddenly withdrew funds and terminated their projects, it would then be a winter hazard for Severe Enterprise soon.

Even so, it seemed like she had nothing to do with Severe Enterprise's fate anymore, so what was there for her to worry about?

She slipped out the back door.

In the living room, Old Master Severe fell silent for a very long time, seemingly trying to persuade him to change his mind, he said, "Can I know what prompted you to make such a decision, Jay?" Jay's eyes were condensed into ice, his tone gloomy and cold. "Old Master Severe, I'm sure you know why I supported Severe Enterprise in the first place?" Old Master Severe nodded.

The scene of his and Jay's first negotiation flashed in his mind.

Although he was not very old, his charming face looked extremely domineering while his resounding aura revealed steadfastness. His crisp and slightly youthful voice disclosed his young age. He said, "The reason I established Grand Asia was to give Angeline the best life there is. As long as Severe Enterprise doesn't let Angeline down, Grand Asia will not let Severe Enterprise down."
