"Jaybie, it'll be difficult for me to forgive her, but I have no other option but to be lenient for you and the kids. After all, we’re responsible for practicing the past generation's righteous and gentle ways.
Moreover, a family like the Areses who lives under the public's eyes will not tolerate even the slightest flaw.”
Jay sat up straight and said in a deadpan manner, "I can do it without leaving a trace. I'll not bring shame t o the Ares family's name."
Angeline touched his face. "I don't want you to live in regret. And I don't wish to sow seeds of hatred in our children’s minds."
Jay saw the worried look on her face, and he hugged her tightly in his arms.
"The thing I regret the most in this lifetime is to have taught you to behave so well. If only you're able to be more selfish or cruel, or perhaps love me a little less, you'll not have suffered so many grievances.”
Angeline smiled and said, "Actually, meeting you is the luckiest thing that has ever happened to me in my life."
After careful consideration, Jay gave up on the idea of killing Chloe since Angeline did not want him to be a
morally tainted person.
However, Jay could not tolerate Chloe repetitively causing Angeline harm, so he had decided to drive Chloe out of Imperial Capital.
As for Sandra and Judy, they would not be fortunate enough to have such an opportunity.
The next day, Jay bade farewell to Angeline and prepared to secretly head to Tourmaline Estate to settle Chloe, Sandra, and Judy’s issues alone.
Unexpectedly, Angeline, the pure-hearted woman, started attaching herself to Jay. She acted coquettishly to him, saying, "I want to come with you, Jaybie."
Jay said, "Rest assured, I won’t kill them."
Angeline understood his cunningness well. If he said that he would not kill them, then he certainly would not. However, he would use other methods to make them experience life worse than death.
"I don't want to be separated from you.” Angeline stuck to him like an octopus and would not let him go.
Jay looked at Angeline, somewhat unable to comprehend her thoughts. Even after suffering so much damage and so many grievances, how could she still maintain such pure and innocent kindness?
Jay said bitterly, "Can I ever stop hating her? If it weren't for her, Angeline wouldn’t have had abrupt somatization disorder. Whenever I think about how Angeline crawled back to Cloud City to seek medical treatment for me, the ache I feel in my heart is unbearable."
Grand Old Master Ares was utterly baffled from hearing his words.
"So that’s what happened."
The doubts in his heart were solved. The reason for Jay's recovery turned out to be because Angeline had gone thousands of miles away to find a famous doctor to treat him.
Grand Old Master Ares felt a stifling sensation in his heart. He was choked up when he said, "Angeline is so good to you, so you have to cherish that girl. As for your mother, that woman is indeed trouble. With her around, the Ares family will never be at peace. But, Jay, she can die in anyone's hands except yours."
Jay controlled his grief and replied, "Don't worry. Angeline has already persuaded me about it. I won't kill her."
Grand Old Master Ares was dumbstruck once more.
Then, he heaved a sigh of relief.
