Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose) novel Chapter 1146

"Mom," he cried out anxiously.

Madam Ares crawled up to him weakly and complained about her tragic experience with indignance. "I’m sorry, Son. Your mother has brought shame to the Ares family"

Madam Ares attempted to win Jay’s favor by acknowledging her mistake first.

Madam Ares then complained tearfully. "But I have m y sorrows too, Son. Steven and I were childhood sweethearts. We even won our parents’ full support. With their support, I gave up everything to love him. But who would've thought that my family would go bankrupt? The Bells are a bunch of snobs and forced m e to break off the engagement. Steven and I tried to elope, but our plan failed as we were caught and brought back here. They broke one of his legs, and in order to save him, I had no choice but to promise the Bell family to marry into the Ares family.

"I was left with no choice but to marry your father. Your father treats me kindly, but a thorn is always there pricking my heart. I cannot bring myself to love him with all my heart because this marriage was forced upon me.”

At this point, a touch of anger flashed in Madam Ares'

eyes. "When Angeline found out that Steven and I were still in touch, she told the Ares family that we're having an affair and exaggerated the details. I know what she's plotting at. She's afraid that both Ares and Bell families will work together to destroy Grand Asia. She'll stop at nothing to protect Grand Asia. She doesn't care how helpless I am, nor my identity as a mother and her elder."

Jay asked Madam Ares in an indifferent tone, "Have you ever told Angeline that you and Steven are just normal friends?"

Madam Ares said, "She knows. She knows everything."

Jay asked again, "Have you ever told her, clearly and plainly, that even though you're still keeping in touch with Bell Enterprise, you have no intention of harming Grand Asia at all?"

Madam Ares said emotionally, "You trust her way too much, my child. No matter what she said or did in the past, you would indulge her nonetheless. Look at what's happening now. You've indulged her into this spoiled and domineering person, harming others and yourself. Now you're the one who ends up suffering, isn't it?"

Jay’s long eyelashes quivered. He did not doubt a word Madam Ares said because every time he saw Angeline, he would have an inexplicable urge to protect and believe her.
