Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 926

Angeline approached with the intent to console Josephine, only to watch the unease grow as the other's eyes fell on her.

Both Zayne and Josephine's expressions were one of pity and worry, making Angeline feel uncomfortable.

"Where's your brother?" she asked.

Josephine opened her mouth, only to be muffled by Zayne's hand as if his life depended on it.

The blood drained from Angeline's face, leaving her like a single-winged moth that was unable to spread its wings and fly, destined to wither away.

"Where's your brother?" Angeline asked again, her voice too low to hear the anger within.

Josephine struggled out of Zayne's grasp.

However, Zayne only tightened his arms in response. Like a ruthless executioner, Zayne showed no hits of letting go until Josephine breathed her last breath. Slowly, Angeline stood. Her eyes fell on the flames before them.

Without notice, she ran toward the fire.

Zayne and the rest felt their hearts jump. They only relaxed slightly when Grayson quickly dashed after Angeline to hold her back.

"Please, Ms. President. I'm so sorry for your loss." Grayson sobbed.

The word 'loss' echoed like a death knell in Angeline's mind, driving her mad.

"I want to look for him. Let me go! He's not leaving without me."

Both Zayne and Josephine quickly rushed forward to comfort Angeline when they saw her outburst.

Zayne spoke, "He couldn't let you go no matter how hard he tried, Angeline. So for him, you have to live well."

Angeline was too far broken to heed his words.

She used to groan over how cold and aloof Jay Ares was, yet she found it impossible to place any blame on him. Not with how emotional she felt right now.

How could she possibly accept such an ending now that she knew his ruthlessness was because he had no other choice? How could she possibly accept it now that she knew he was still the Jaybie who protected her with everything he had?

Grayson may have had the strength of a mule, yet he found his hold on the woman giving under Angeline's determined struggles.

Both Zayne and Josephine helped him hold Angeline back, the very woman who seemed adamant about running to her death and whose voice had gone hoarse from all the screaming. "Let me go with him, please. Please, I'm begging you. You have no idea, there's no point in living in a world without him."

"You still have your parents, Angel. You still have your kids. You need to think this through." Zayne persuaded.

"Tell Mother and Father I'm sorry. I'll do better in my next life. Take care of my kids. Don't hold me back, Zayne. You know I can't survive without him. Where he goes, I go."

"You can't die yet, Sis Angeline. Listen to me," Josephine consoled her as she sobbed. "My brother loved you so much. He even planned everything out for you after his death. You can't pour all his hard work down the drain."

"No-I have to talk to him. I need to know what he was thinking when he decided to throw me away. He promised me forever."

Angeline heaved and cried, her sobs tearing through the air and ripping apart the hearts of those who heard. Soon after, she lost her voice.

There was no sound to be heard. All that was left was a contorted expression on her gorgeous features.

This sight of Angeline pushed Josephine into a sadder wave of tears.

After all, she was no stranger to how falling deeply in love with someone felt.

Not to mention that Sis Angelina's love for Jay had always been one of superhuman dependency and yearning. Josephine wailed, saying, "Is there no way to lessen Sis Angeline's pain? Her body won't take this crying much longer." With no other option left, Grayson lifted a hand to knock Angeline out cold before anyone knew what was happening. At Mount Villa.

Cole held the clothed pouch with Zetty's silky hair in his hands.

He refused to believe the woman he had fallen deeply in love with to be Aunt Chloe's daughter.
