Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose) novel Chapter 1705

Chloe retorted, "What’s the point in being sorry? You only have your wife in your heart anyway. When I'm dissatisfied with her, you treat me as your foe and bear grudges against me. Giving birth to you was my mistake."

Jay kept his silence and allowed Chloe to condemn him.

Judy complained to him, "Brother Jay, Aunt Chloe had a hard time when you weren’t around. The Severes reprimanded her and the Areses had been nothing but harsh to her. Even Chief Yorks criticized Aunt Chloe about everything she did. Even if Aunt Chloe was wrong, she was only in the wrong because she loves you too much. That's just maternal instinct. Who'd want their son to marry a sickly wife?"

Jay cast a sharp glare toward Judy.

Judy trembled with fright and quickly shut her mouth.

Chloe looked around for a while and did not see Angeline around. She then asked curiously, "Where’s Angeline?"

Only now did Judy realize that Angeline had not returned.

Chloe and Judy were now viciously speculating. Could

it be? Was Angeline too sick to walk? Had Angeline kicked the bucket?

Judy was unable to restrain her joy. "Is Sis Angeline's illness unrecoverable?"

Jay felt as if someone had plucked out his nerves, causing him severe pain. He glared at Judy and gritted his teeth, saying, "She’s doing just fine."

Chloe appeared somewhat unhappy. "If she's fine, then why didn’t you bring her back to visit me?"

Jay replied, "It's unnecessary."

Chloe was feeling a little angry. "She's my daughter-in-law and I’m her mother-in-law. Shouldn't she at least come to see me when I'm sick?"

Jay said, "Mom, I came to see you because you gave birth to me. I’m obligated to visit you because I'm your son. But Angeline is my wife. If you had treated her well, she would've come to see you as a courtesy. Since you've been horrible to her, she has no obligations to be kind toward you. You must understand that she doesn’t owe you anything."

Chloe was fuming. "What did you say? You're taking sides with the evildoer here! If you continue protecting her this way, you'll only encourage her to think less of me. Perhaps you think that the way she landed her hand on me was not a wrong act as well?"

Jay’s eyes appeared darker and more profound now. Chloe abruptly came to her senses when she saw Jay's expression turning cold.

What was she doing? Was she still trying to win a fight against Angeline? This would only drive Jay away from her.

She could not afford to make such a mistake again.
