Jay felt as if a heavy weight had been lifted from his mind. "I'll go and open the door."
Marilyn stood rooted to the same spot.
Jay walked to the living room and opened the security door. When he saw Baby Zetty and her mother standing at the door, he was left dazed and stunned.
"Mr. Ben." Baby Zetty threw herself into Jay’s arms the moment she saw him.
Angeline noticed that Jay was wearing at-home wear. Even though it was a long-sleeved shirt and long trousers, they were still incapable of bringing out the cold, elegant, and charming aura in him than when he wore a suit and tie. His wavy black hair was still wet, which further added a touch of charm to him as well.
She stood there, stone still.
After all, she was pretending to be a blind person right now, afraid to even shift her gaze rashly.
"Who is it, darling?" Marilyn walked out.
When Angeline saw her see-through pajamas, her eyes emitted a frosty aura.
This woman had to be deliberately seducing Jaybie, right?
Jay stroked Baby Zetty's head gently while answering Marilyn, "This is the kid I told you about. I’m teaching her piano."
Marilyn sized Baby Zetty up and down and was unable to react when she saw her delicate face.
"You look really beautiful." Marilyn praised her.
Her gaze shifted to Angeline next. When she saw Angeline, Marilyn could hardly stand still anymore. She recognized her. This beautiful woman was the woman in Ben's portrait.
Marilyn was filled with hostility at once.
"What are you guys doing here this late at night?" There was a hint of displeasure in her tone.
When Angeline realized that she had ruined this woman’s plan, she smiled sheepishly. "Baby Zetty told me that Mr. Ben now lives across from us, and if I’m not mistaken, you've just moved in today as well.
Since you've moved to a new house, I think there's a need for us to come up and congratulate you!"
Marilyn was struck dumb.
Baby Zetty took Jay’s hand and started swaying it fondly, saying in an adorable and spoiled manner, ¹ Can I visit your new house, Mr. Ben?"
