Jay looked lovingly at Angeline. She could bring herself to forgive Chloe even after the constant harm she had inflicted upon her, as well as turn a blind eye t o Josephine’s selfish request... Those who did not know her personally might think that she was a doormat.
However, he alone knew that Angeline was a noble young lady with quite a temper. She was merely treating those around her tenderly.
As for him, he felt like a failure because he could not protect her well.
"Are you tired, Angeline?" Jay asked softly.
Angeline grabbed his arm like an octopus, shaking her head. "I'm not tired."
"You should sit down and take a break. TH buy your clothes for you," Jay suggested.
Like a deer, Angeline blinked her innocent eyes. “Do you know my size?”
Jay's malicious gaze fell on Angeline's chest. "What do you think?"
Angeline blushed. "Go on then."
Zayne, Josephine, and Angeline sat on the soft couch.
Josephine opened her mouth several times in an attempt to speak and finally mustered up the courage t o confess to Angeline. "You don't need to go back to Tourmaline Estate, Sis Angeline. Big Brother is right. Chloe is still living in Tourmaline Estate, so I shouldn't be asking you to risk your health when you're unwell.”
Angeline said with a smile, "I’m fine now, Josephine. Even if I meet Chloe again, she won't be able to harm m e any more. The reason why I choose not to go back to Tourmaline Estate isn't because of myself but because of your brother."
Angeline looked dispirited. "My illness is physical, but your brother has been suffering from mental torture during this period of time. While caring for me so meticulously, he was also filled with guilt. Also, he can't stand seeing me leave anymore. He's living a much tougher life than any of us."
Josephine's eyes were filled with tears.
Angeline took Josephine's hand and pleaded with her, "Don't force him, let him do everything as he wishes."
Josephine nodded quickly. "I understand, Sis Angeline. I promise not to give you anymore problems with this cursed mouth of mine."
