That night, he was finally able to sleep with her in his arms.
By the time it was morning, Jay was still fast asleep.
Then, he heard a magnetic voice coming from the side. “Jaybie. Jaybie?”
Jay opened his eyes and smiled when he heard Angeline’s voice.
“Can you speak now, Angeline?”
He reached out his hand to touch Angeline’s face. Then, he turned her gently to face him. “Jaybie is right here, Angeline.”
Angeline knew that Jay would feel sorry for her bitter experience. In order to stop him from worrying, the first words Angeline uttered were words of reassurance for him.
“I’m fine, Jaybie. Cole did not bully me, nor did the kidnappers. I was merely worried about you the whole time. Now that I see you safely by my side again, my heart’s at ease. Don’t worry, I’m in a perfect frame of mind. My body will heal itself soon.”
Jay whimpered like a puppy. “When they said you fell off the cliff and was swallowed by a beast, did you know how scared I was, Angeline?
“I haven’t given you happiness in this lifetime, so how could you have already left me? I couldn’t believe it… I’m really glad you’re okay.”
Angeline giggled. “Silly, I’m happy whenever I’m with you. But you, now that your eyes aren’t perfect, are you getting used to it?”
Jay’s heart had always been strong and invincible. He smiled. “I used a pair of eyes in exchange for you to come back safely. I feel like it’s a win for me.”
Angeline was optimistic as well and began mocking herself. “Now that we’re the disabled duo, don’t you think we’re such a great match for each other?”
Jay brought her into his arms and hugged her. His pair of peach blossom eyes bloomed like it was spring, making his finely carved face even more charming.
For Jay and Angeline, other tribulations were merely added flavors in their lives as long as they could stay together.
Knowing that Angeline had resurrected from the dead, Cole was not able to snap back into reality.
It was yet another pleasant surprise.
“Why is Jay’s intuition so accurate?” Cole was puzzled.
Carson was stupefied.
The gentle young master was definitely evolving into someone barbaric like the old master and the grand old master.
“You’re swearing, Young Master.”
“Spencer was right. Looking and waiting to have a flawless girl as someone who was born in the mud, it’s been an extravagant hope from the beginning.”
Carson suddenly felt sorrowful. Since he was young, the young master merely wanted to find someone suitable for him. He refused to end up like the old master and madam, quarreling whenever they met and wasting their lifetimes with hatred.
For this reason alone, Young Master had read countless books and walked different paths of life.
He was gentle, elegant, and refined. He was completely incompatible with the Yorks’ stronghold and stuck out like a sore thumb.
One would not expect a single failure in his conquest for romance to instantly revert him to how he was originally.
