Grand Old Master Ares and the husband and wife were happily teasing one another. The scene stung Chloe deeply because no matter how hard she tried to please Jay, he would always treat her indifferently.
After lunch, Chloe bade farewell to Jay and left Chateau de Selene with Judy.
On the way back to Fragrant Vessel Court, Chloe complained bitterly, "Jay's too nice to Angeline. He peels her shrimps and even continuously puts food on her plate. It's as if she’s being spoiled to death by him.
I think he barely gives me one-tenth of the affection h e gives to Angeline, and I'm his birth mother.”
Judy looked baffled. "Didn’t the servant say they quarreled last night? Was all that stuff about Angeline wanting to run away from home a lie?"
Chloe said, "I noticed that Angelina's eyes were a little swollen. It’s obvious she had cried."
Judy’s sense of loss turned to delight once more." Aunt Chloe, perhaps Brother Jay was kind to Angeline today to apologize to her?"
Chloe made up a melodramatic scene in her head. "It’s surely because Angeline saw the scene of you and Jay being intimate last night and made a fuss about it to
Jay. And Jay had to treat her better today to appease her."
When they thought of it this way, the sense of loss in their hearts was alleviated by a whole lot.
Chloe contemptuously said, "Angelina's only able to win men's affection by constantly throwing tantrums. This method might be effective when used once, but Jay will inevitably be bored of it once she uses the same trick several more times."
Afterward, Chloe looked at Judy with other intentions i n mind.
Judy understood her tacitly. "Aunt Chloe, don't worry. I'll find a chance to get closer to Brother Jay. I’ll also create a lot more misunderstandings between them."
Chloe said, "Good."
