She was trying to remind him to protect himself when his life was at stake.
If Jay was gone, then she would not have the will to live anymore either.
She wanted Jay to cherish his life.
Judy pouted and snorted.
Judy refused to believe that Angeline would love Jay so deeply.
When they came to a fork, Jay said, "Send Judy home, Zayne."
Zayne had been quarreling with Judy the entire way and was eager to get rid of this annoying girl. "Why me?"
Jay said confidently, "Because I need to take Angeline home."
Zayne whimpered and dropped his head, saying, "I’ll take Angeline home. You can take Judy home."
Jay glared at him…
Angeline suggested, "Jaybie, we’re not far from Judy's house. We can send her home on the way."
Jay accepted Angeline's suggestion.
Judy looked extremely abashed. Jay’s aversion to her had sent a substantial blow to her self-esteem.
When Judy came home, Cole walked out with a sullen face and reprimanded her, "Your father's life is in danger. Aren’t you worried that he won’t be able to die in peace if you’re not by his side?”
Judy rolled her eyes at Cole. Already upset to begin with, she took it all out on Cole. "I know you like Sis Angeline. That’s why you’re afraid that I’ll pester Brother Jay and upset your sweetheart."
Smack!
Cole slapped her across the face in fury. "Don't you dare slander Angeline like that."
Judy clutched her blazing face and roared. "What did I say wrong?”
Cole clenched his teeth. "Listen up. Master Ares will love her despite all her shortcomings. At 17 years old, Master Ares fell in love with Angeline at first sight when she was only ten. He kept her in a safe bubble since, painstakingly nurturing her. You can say that Master Ares is the one who made Angeline into who she is today. She can be like a trumpet vine when she’s gentle and a kapok tree when she’s tough. Master Ares is the reason why she’s physically weak… Not only would Master Ares not hate this version of Angeline, but he’ll only indulge and pamper her even more.”
This was the first time Judy had heard about the touching love story between Jay and Angeline. She was feeling both jealous and astonished.
She was aware of Jay’s kindness toward Angeline but was surprised to learn about the love behind his indulgence and pampering.
Jay's love for Angeline was so passionate and intense that it was driving her crazy.
