He could no longer tell who was the real mistress between the two women next to the male lead.
He looked at Angeline. "Which character did you choose?"
Angeline replied without hesitation, "The first wife."
Hence, Jay killed Angeline's character straight away.
The game system sounded, ‘The husband has eliminated the poor wife. The game ends.’
He was an extremely calm and rational person who could detach himself from the reality of a game completely. Angeline, however, was a very emotional person who empathized with the character in the game. Such an ending was one that she simply could not accept.
She had an emotional breakdown at once. Her dark eyes were red and swollen because she felt cast out and unimportant. She glared furiously at Jay...
Her entire body was shaking with rage.
"Must you cry just because you lost the game?" Jay stared at her, baffled.
Were all women so capricious?
Angeline roared. "Why did you eliminate me?"
Why not her?
Jay sneered, looking at her as if she was mentally-challenged.
"We’re in a competition. Who should I destroy if not you?"
Angeline,"..."
"You were just trying to beat me?"
"Obviously."
Angeline slumped to the ground and started dripping cold sweat. She kept consoling herself that this was just a game.
Jay looked suspiciously at her. At the sight of the fine beads of sweat on her forehead, he frowned. "If you can't afford to lose, then don't play at all."
As for herself, she rushed to Grand Asia's medical department as quickly as she could.
When the ambulance brought Jay and his family to Grand Asia Hospital, Angeline had already been waiting for a very long time.
"What happened?" Angeline stepped forward and asked.
"The child has a high fever and is now unconscious. The cause is yet to be investigated," the doctor said.
Marilyn was so shocked that she could hardly say a word anymore. As her entire body had lost its strength, she latched onto Jay like an octopus.
Angeline glanced at Jay and saw him holding Marilyn tightly with one hand, his dashing face filled with worry. A hint of jealousy surged through her out of nowhere.
"Someone please send Marilyn to the ward. Find a nurse to take good care of her."
"Yes."
Angeline glanced bitterly at Jay. Although she blamed him for many things, she found herself consoling him and saying, "Don't worry, the child will be fine." Jay nodded.
