Whitney said in a bold and daring manner, "Don't worry, Jenson. No matter how reluctant I am, I will train my tough and strong iron-like body into a mollusk that you can knead and shape as you like. Even if it means that I have to crawl, I will crawl my way to you.
"I will never let you be Penelope The Second."
Jenson murmured, "Whether you want to crawl your way to me or not is your business. It has nothing to do with me."
Whitney, "..."
When Whitney noticed how Jenson's ears had turned pink, she let out a dazzling smile.
"I’ll go and challenge embroidery now.
"I'm leaving, Jens."
After saying so, Whitney left.
Jenson stared at his mommy in the painting in silence, and a faint smile gradually emerged on his cool iceberg-like face.
He muttered, "I’ll be back very soon, Mommy."
Grand Asia, Imperial Capital.
It was a long night, and Jay had been up the entire night.
He was standing in front of the bedroom’s french window while staring at the opposite villa with a profound gaze.
He felt conflicted.
He liked Baby Zetty's mother, and whenever he saw her, he would feel the urge to risk his life to protect her.
Angeline liked him as well. It was the kind of love where she was ready to give up everything without hesitation.
Both of these women were the most beautiful women in the world.
He could not bring himself to get tangled up with these women when he was still unclear of his real identity.
After careful consideration, Jay finally made the difficult decision to leave.
He wrote a resignation letter to Angeline.
There was only one sentence underneath the resignation letter:
‘I’m going to find myself! I hope that the next time we meet, I’ll be myself.’
He put down ‘anonymous’ as his signature.
Both his resignation letter and the payroll card that Angeline gave him were placed together on the coffee table in the living room.
"I'm sorry, Jaybie! I'll come and take you home," Angeline uttered, but it was now too late for regrets.
…
After a strike of thunder, the sky started pouring.
The pedestrians who were walking leisurely on the street started fleeing helter-skelter.
Jay stood helplessly in the rain wearing a limited edition white blouse, a pair of black trousers, and white-colored sneakers endorsed by the world's famous sports star.
A Mercedes-Benz suddenly drove past him.
The driver, Yumi, was wearing a pair of large sunglasses. Through the dark lenses, a malicious smirk shot out of her eyes.
"Jay Ares!"
To see Jay appearing at the corner of a crowded street on a business day could mean only one thing only—he and Angeline had fallen out.
Behind the sunglasses, her phoenix eyes glinted slyly. "Jay Ares, I’d like to see how you’re going to shine now!"
Jay stood at the door of a convenience store to shelter himself from the rain. The curtain of rain under the eaves had blurred his vision, making it almost impossible to see the scenery in the distance.
