Sir Ares, Goodnight

Chapter 125

Grand Old Master Ares examined closely Jay's handsome but impassive face. Jay was piqued when Rose's name was mentioned, though he remained emotionless, which showed that he still rejected NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Rose's existence.

"Sigh!" Grand Old Master Ares was suddenly melancholic. "You can't seem to ever forget about her, can you?"

An almost imperceptible, yet persistent shadow appeared on Jay's impassive face.

A long time later, he nodded very slightly. "I owe her a lot. Those words that I had said to her when we were children, she had treated them seriously. I didn't respond to her advances... If I knew that she would end her life that way, I would have told her that the promise I made to marry her is the most truthful and honest promise that I have made in my life."

Grand Old Master Ares nodded. "I believe you. You love Angeline from the bottom of your heart. She is a good girl, and I have also thought that only her intelligence and beauty could match you.

Unfortunately, fate is cruel!"

When Angeline Severe's name was mentioned, a hint o f a warm smile appeared on Jay's cold face.

Angeline Severe held an irreplaceable position in

Jay's heart. She was both gentle and strong, both restrained and wild, and both sensitive and mischievous. She could make him laugh loudly or anger him into silence.

Unfortunately, that perfect girl met with an accident when she was driving on the highway from Swallow City to Imperial Capital. At the time of her death, she was clutching his photograph in her hand. Some people conjectured that she had died because of unrequited love.

Jay's hollow gaze suddenly sharpened with rage. They burned with a fire that could consume the rest of his body.

Grand Old Master Ares spoke, pulling back his wandering thoughts. "Let the dead rest in peace, Jay. You can't keep on mourning her forever. You should walk out of your sorrow and make yourself forget about her. At least do that for Jenson and Robbie."

Jay nodded slightly. "I will, Grandfather."

Obviously, he did not mean what he said.

Grand Old Master Ares seemed to have remembered something. He furrowed his brows. "I've heard from your father that you plan to marry Nancy from the Bell family?"

Jay hesitated before he spoke. "I know Ms. Bell since w e were children. I thought that if I can't marry the woman I truly love, then I should find someone with a mutual understanding to raise the family. That might help with Jenson's illness, but... Jenson seems to reject her, and that is why I have yet to make a decision."

Grand Old Master Ares looked at Jay. He remembered that his grandson had always been a stoic person, never even furrowing his brows in the most critical situations. He did not expect that his grandson would brood over a decision because of his son.

Grand Old Master Ares pushed himself up by the long table and leaned close to Jay. "If the reason you marry is because of your son, then why not try to reconcile with Rose?" He said profoundly.

Jay's eyebrows quivered slightly like a series of barely visible ripples in a pool of water that a dragonfly had just skipped past.

"She is married to someone else, Grandfather," He spoke softly with his thin, irresistible lips. There was n o warmth in his tone of voice.

"Oh?" Grand Old Master Ares furrowed his brows. He looked disappointed.

'So what will happen to my very good greatgrandchildren?' Grand Old Master Ares seemed unhappy.

After thinking about it for a while, Grand Old Master Ares opened his eyes and declared seriously, "I might b e old but I am still capable. If I can raise an outstanding individual like you, then I can also continue raising the next generation of the Ares

family." 1

"I'll take care of my own children, Grandfather," Jay said determinedly.
