The Lucky Wife (Jay ares and Rose) novel Chapter 961

Jay was hesitant, but Tommy begged him. “Ben, you’ve gotta agree to President Severe’s requests. The entire village will be grateful to you.”

Jay was distraught. “I have a job already.”

Tommy replied in dismay, “Ah, so you have a job, so you won’t help us anymore.”

Angeline knew that Jay was a man of his word. Since he promised that he would be Baby Zetty’s piano tutor, he would not accept any other jobs.

To resolve his concerns, Angeline then replied, “You don’t have to be on-site to work. All you have to do is to look after the fishermen closely and make sure that they follow the rules around here.”

Jay then agreed. “Alright then.”

Grayson gave the police a call, and after some banter, he turned toward Angeline to say, “They need a guarantor.”

Jay said, “Me.”

Angeline was musing over the fact that those fishermen were still brutes and barbarians. Should there be any trouble, the guarantor would regret being the guarantor in the first place.

She rolled her eyes at Jay. “You? Everything on you is worth even less than one of my fingernails. How are you going to be the guarantor?”

Jay replied, “You’re so vulgar!”

Angeline, “...”

This b*stard was really biting the hand that fed him!

Grayson understood the situation, so he replied on the phone, “The president will be the guarantor. Let them go immediately.”

After Tommy and Jay left the design department in the building, Tommy had nothing but praise for Angeline. “Ben, I think that the president isn’t as scary as the rumors say. She’s cold on the outside, but nice on the inside. She looks nasty, but when she heard of our hardship and how hard it was for us to look for money, she became so kind… I think that she’s better than those women back in our village who look nice and kind but will actually talk behind your back.”

Jay sank into deep thought…

He thought of how that hag had made porridge for him, sent him to the doctor when he was sick, and now helping out the fishermen. All of her actions were heartwarming, but when he arrived at the thought that she wanted to keep him as her consort, Jay simply could not agree with what Tommy said.

“The she-devil has ulterior motives in doing all of these.”

The others echoed in agreement. “Yeah.”

Jay responded coldly, “The order isn’t for you to listen to me. It’s for all of you to obey and follow the rules of the company.”

The fishermen looked at each other. “We’re not listening to you either way.”

Angeline was watching from a distance and saw the entire scene unfold. The expression on her face was indescribable.

She thought of how her Jaybie was once the almighty crown prince of Imperial Capital. Now, he could not even settle a bunch of fishermen. Oh, how the mighty had fallen.

Angeline walked over to the fishermen with her arms crossed. She said in a condescending tone, “Those who are willing to listen to him, stay. Those who are not, leave now.”

As she said that, the fishermen changed their stances immediately and curried Jay’s favor. “Ben, since the president has spoken, then I shall listen to you.”

Angeline helped Jay to diffuse the situation in the hopes that he would be grateful. Who knew that Jay glowered at her with resentment in his eyes, hinting at her being nosy.

Angeline said casually to Grayson, “Get insurance for all of the fishermen. Social security and all.”
