Sir Ares, Goodnight

Chapter 156

'So she's not plotting for my money or my love, but only wants me to treat Baby Zetty a little better?'

However, Jay was not too happy about Rose's explanation. He furrowed his brows and asked Rose coldly, "What do you mean by 'unrealistic expectations iQll

Rose looked at him exasperatedly and said timidly," Sir Ares, you must be thinking that I want you to remarry me, and that's why I'm asking Baby Zetty to b e friendly toward you. Don't worry, Sir Ares, that will never ever happen.

"I'm conscious enough to not dwell on the past, Sir Ares. You did not show any interest in me six years ago, and I wouldn't hope that you will ever have any interest.

"I will never marry again. I just want to see my children grow into capable adults, and I won't have any regrets in my life."

Rose's eyes were filled with sadness as she spoke those words with a forlorn voice. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

It was a sign of submission to the cruel reality of life.

Jay said nothing but looked at Rose. She had been through two failed marriages. That must have been tough on her.

"If I may ask... Where is Zetty's father?" Jay did not think that Rose's dejection was because of him.

Rose was visibly flustered. 'You are Zetty's father!' She thought.

How should she answer him?

"He... He...”

She wanted to say that he died, but she did not want t o indirectly curse Jay's death.

"He ran away with another woman when I was pregnant with Baby Zetty!" She said softly after a long while. 2

Jay looked at her pitifully. "You ought to be more careful with men!"

Tears welled in Rose's eyes after she heard him say that.

She had only loved one man ever since the beginning. That man was him!

She was whole-heartedly in love with him.

Unfortunately for her, she had waited for two years but had never received even a direct gaze from him.

"You don't know what love is," Rose said with much difficulty, trying to suppress the agony in her heart.

Jay's melancholy was piqued by that sentence. Did she say that he did not know what love is?

That was her biggest misunderstanding.

He had been mature for his age since young. He was different from the other boys his age.

That was why when he was sixteen, he had been irredeemably attracted to Angeline Severe, who carried herself as pure as spring water.

For a person as aloof and cool as he, he spent a lot of time caring and nurturing her, and from there, their affection toward each other grew.

Unfortunately for him, she had been too young. While he protected and cared for her, he had never directly professed his love for her because he thought that actions alone were proof enough. He thought that he could marry her once she graduated from university...

Unfortunately, fate was cruel to both of them!

Angeline died of an accident in the second year of university!
