Angeline might be narrow-minded, but she was not unreasonable. After listening to Jay's explanation, her anger dissipated immediately. She asked Jay with concern, "Why is the assassin following you, Jaybie?"
Jay did not want Angeline to worry about him, so he pretended to look relaxed. He squeezed Angeline's cheeks and smiled. "He injured Uncle Zechariah. I think he's here to hurt Judy.”
Jay then steered Angeline toward tragic cases of familicides, which diminished Angeline’s concerns and worries tremendously.
The night was hazy, so the rugged mountain road became difficult to navigate. The road downhill was especially steep and precipitous.
Jay bent down and said, "I'll carry you home, Angeline."
Zayne rushed forward, putting all of his weight on
Jay. He said with an annoying smile, "I'm also exhausted from having searched for you all day, Big Brother. Why don't you carry me too?"
Jay grabbed his shoulders and performed a beautiful shoulder throw, smashing Zayne to the ground while snarling. "Get lost."
Zayne yelped in pain.
Angeline climbed onto Jay's firm and solid back, letting out a dazzling smile.
Judy, who was left out in the cold, looked at Jay and Angeline while twisting her hands together. The unwillingness pouring out of her eyes grew more and more intense.
She did not understand why Jay, an angel with otherworldly good looks, superior IQ, and cold and lofty aura, would indulge and pamper Angeline so much. Judy was obsessed with this gentle side of Jay, and that gave birth to a feeling of intense greed. She wanted to replace Angeline and become Master Ares’ favorite.
She was sure that Brother Jay did not like her competitive character, hence she would imitate Angeline by being a weak and frail girl.
"Brother Jay." Judy suddenly staggered forward and looked around with a pale complexion. "I’m scared."
Judy thought that Jay would care for her but did not expect him to reply without even looking back, "Didn’t you say that you have really good martial arts skills? What are you so scared of?"
Angeline curled her lips and smiled slightly. Jaybie was definitely a male chauvinist in front of other women.
