Angeline was pissed off. "I don't agree to be your mistress. Screw you, it's too insulting."

She was so angry that she swore.

Jay looked at her aggrieved face. He knew that doing so would hurt her self-esteem.

However, he could only use this contractual relationship to get what he wanted and to ensure her safety.

"You don't want the money?" he said enticingly.

She said sulkily, "I don't want it anymore. Anyway, the Severe family is already on the verge of bankruptcy. What could be worse than now?"

A smile appeared in Jay's eyes.

"Didn't you say that you'd sleep with many men the other day? So, why not another one?" He half-joked.

Angeline gritted her teeth and glared at him fiercely. Her gaze was so fierce as though she wanted to eat him up.

"My choice in bed partners also depends on the person."

Then, she swept her gaze across Jay with disdain and deliberately gave him the cold-shoulder. "An elderly man like yourself with inconvenient legs is not my cup of tea."

Jay,

Elderly man... Was he really that old?

"After signing the contract, I'll give the Severe family a way out." He tried coaxing.

Angelina's eyes shone. "Can you change the term from mistress to lover?"

"No, I can't." He rejected it decisively.

"Am I that much of a disgrace?" Angeline's voice was filled with acridity.

Jay felt a pain in his heart. "You know businessmen like us must maintain a good public image on the outside."

Angeline did not speak anymore. "Let me consider it." She sounded downhearted.

Angeline returned to her bedroom in disappointment and sat on the bed in a daze.

He had asked her to be his mistress because he must be thinking of getting another wife.

Angeline felt a terrible pain in her heart just thinking about this and her tears fell generously.

It was just that Angeline was too persistent with this emotion and was not willing to give up easily.

She held her belly gently and secretly thought of trying hard for the child.

Maybe he would regret it and change his mind one day?

Jay's wheelchair was stuck at the door. His affectionless voice sounded faintly, "Angeline, I won't force you. Just forget it if you don't want to." Although he was very disappointed on the inside, he did not want to see her sad.

However, Angeline calmly walked up to him and announced, "I want to."

Jay looked at her with a firm light glowing in his dark orbs.

"Then let's sign it!" It was hard to hide the joy in his eyes.

Angeline went out and signed the contract.

Then, she handed the pen to Jay who took it over...

At this moment, Finn ran up in a panic. As he was in a hurry, he staggered and fell on the stone steps of the stairs.

Jay's hand that was holding the pen came to a slight stop. His gaze fell on Finn who had crawled out and his hawk eyes squinted.

"President Ares, it's not good." Finn's face was white as a sheet, and because he was in such a hurry, he did not notice Angeline. "Something bad has happened to the retiree of

Tourmaline Estate."

Jay was a little mad. "Didn't I tell you guys to keep an eye on her?"

Finn said, "President Ares, this matter is too strange."

Jay glanced at the bewildered Angeline and stopped Finn. "We'll talk about it later."

Finn and Jay then left in a hurry.

Angeline sat on the sofa restlessly.
