Angeline asked angrily, "Why are you fighting?"
Jay and Cole fell silent at the same time.
Angeline shifted her gaze toward the mollusk lying on the ground. "Spit it out, Carson.”
Carson blurted out, "My young master doesn’t want to take responsibility for Shirley Severe..."
Although Carson felt that the young master was pitiful, Shirley was carrying an heir to Doomsday. Carson could not let the young master's reckless choice destroy the life of the tiny young master.
Angeline suddenly clenched her fists in anger and glared at Cole. "Is that true?"
Cole did not say a word, but he had obviously acquiesced to Carson's comments.
Jay was afraid that Angeline would fall ill from anger. He quickly took Angeline's hand and coaxed her softly. "Angel, don't be angry. My little cousin here has already promised to take responsibility."
He wittily blinked his enticing and charming eyes toward Angeline after speaking. His enchanting features were radiant, and Angeline was immediately captured by his charm. Suddenly, the anger in her heart dissipated by a whole lot.
Cole glared at Jay. "I did not."
Jay looked at Cole. The man had a bloodied nose and a swollen face. Then, he looked at Carson who was like a mollusk lying on the ground. The master and servant looked like survivors of a car accident.
The surge of pity upon seeing Cole's state managed to suppress his anger at once. He uttered, “Shut your mouth if you don't want to get beaten up."
Cole held onto his swollen and red face, ridiculing," When you're this old, it’s best you learn how to control your temper. Don't go around using your fists all the time. You're a gentleman, not an underdeveloped barbarian."
Jay hated it when others labeled him as old, especially in front of Angeline. He abruptly glared at Cole as his eyes piled up with frost. His ferocious gaze seemed to be a warning for Cole that said, 'Any more nonsense from you and I’ll tear your bones apart.'
When Angeline looked back at Jay, however, his demonic expression immediately turned tender like a handsome prince.
Cole mocked him and said, "The oh-so dignified king o f Imperial Capital can switch his expressions so quickly like in the movies."
