Jay felt his blood running cold, and even the tips of his fingers were shivering.
Angeline wanted to bid farewell to her past completely? Did she mean utterly abandoning him and their children?
How hurt could she possibly be that the once so optimistic and cheerful Angeline was now despondent toward the world?
Cole continued to chatter incessantly, "I'm trying to transfer some allowance to them, but our Venmo accounts are capped at 299.99 dollars. I tried calling them back, but the other line is busy. I'm guessing that their phones are now rejecting any calls, so unless they take the initiative to get in contact with u s, we can't contact them."
Jay was not at all surprised that Angeline had set her phone to reject all incoming calls. It was just that he still felt a faint sting in his heart.
Whenever he thought about how Angeline had drawn a line between them, he felt his heart sobbing with sadness.
"Master Ares, we're running out of ideas here. Haven't you always been smart and wise? I'll be leaving this
matter to you now.”
Jay was still overflowed with the grief that Angeline had bestowed upon him, and he was not at all in the mood to listen to Cole's voice.
"Hello? Master Ares?"
Ultimately, Cole had no other option but to hang up the phone.
Inside the hall, Grand Old Master Yorks, Chloe, and Spencer looked at Cole eagerly. Their expressions were filled with expectations as they all had people they cared about and they wanted to know the other party's current situation.
Cole shrugged his shoulders and tried to keep them in suspense. "Why are you guys looking at me?" The fact was, he was not at all in the know of the three's situation. He also wanted to know more about Angelina's situation.
Spencer angrily rebuked, "Stop keeping us at bay. When is your mother coming back?"
Cole grabbed a cherry from the fruit platter and shoved it in his mouth. "Why do you even think that m y mother is coming back?"
Spencer made a solemn vow, "Running away from home was a decision she made on a hot-headed whim. She'll come home once she has calmed down. She’s a middle-aged woman now, yet she's still running away from home like a young teenager. Isn’t i t embarrassing?"
Cole rolled his eyes at his dad. "You're wrong, Dad.
