Zayne shivered. Perhaps he had taken it too far.

"It was an ectopic pregnancy," Jay told him.

Zayne was lost for words.

"Oh."

Jay was never ruthless, not when the man merely chose to hide the truth behind protecting Angeline.

Zayne felt his heart tighten and clench. "You idiot."

Jay almost seemed overprotective of Angeline.

Despite her being the mother of three kids, he still saw her as a little girl who would always need him.

Zayne walked over to Angeline and Cole, forcing himself between the duo.

"Hey, Angeline. Why can't you choose a better spot to go on a date? Look at how many people there are here. Have you no shame?"

Cole smiled elegantly. "Indeed. I'll make sure to choose a better spot next time. Perhaps under the moon and the stars?"

Zayne,

Zayne felt like he had gone for wool but came home shorn.

"Could you stop spending time with my sister for the

next few days, Cole? She's a little busy..."

Zayne merely hoped that Jay could leave the world happy.

"I'm not busy." Angeline cut through his lie.

Zayne's eyes widened.

"Don't forget, Angeline, that you're a divorced woman with three kids. Looking for a man is no longer the issue of you alone. Your children should have a say in this."

He spared Cole a glance. "Especially when he'd be filling in the role of a stepfather. I have a feeling your children will reject someone of his caliber."

Cole was speechless.

Was he that bad?

Zayne pressed on. "After all, with how big a difference there is when you compare him to their biological father, I'm afraid the kids won't take well to the gaping difference." Cole, "..."

He was still rather pissed about Carson pointing out how inferior he was in comparison to Jay Ares.

He had not expected Zayne to be so blunt, explicitly stating how big a difference there was between him and Jay.

Cole was hit immediately with a sense of defeat!

It was a sense of shame only Jay Ares could bring onto him.

The desire to win surged within him. He would prove to the world that Jay's presence would be like an ant's to him.

As he spoke, Zayne picked up an expensive bottle of cocktail to pour himself a cup.

Angelina reached out to block the top of the cup, turning the spotlight to him. "Why are you back? Where's Baby Robbie?"

Zayne's smile froze. As he was too caught up in Jay's feelings, Zayne had impulsively rushed out and forgotten about the missing Baby Robbie.

He had dug his own grave.

"Jay Ares sent Storm to join in the competition Robbie's in, and because I don't want to see his botox-injected emotionless face, I came back early." Zayne brushed her off guiltily.

Angeline replied, "Why are you back here? Do you have nothing better to do? Would it hurt you to be a good uncle and stay in S country with Robbie?"

A hand came up to hold her abdomen. Angeline's eyes reddened as the topic shifted. "Jay Ares doesn't care about his own family anymore. What gave you the idea that he'd care about his child?" An awkward and bitter look surfaced on Zayne's expression.

Jay was standing right behind her, and Zayne wondered how much it must have hurt him to hear Angeline's words.

"How could he not love his own son?"

Angeline's expression was indifferent. The topic of Jay Ares sent a searing pain to her chest, splitting it open.
