"Do you mind it, Sir Ares?" Rose looked up at him.
Jay's eyes were filled with sullenness. "What do you think?"
Any normal man would mind how many times his wife had been married, right?
Rose was getting aggrieved and panicky. Saving her grandfather was what was used as a bargaining chip i n forcing her to get married. She never wanted to marry him. A loveless marriage only brought endless harm.
"You can take back the proposal," she muttered, lowering her head.
Although her voice was small, it was like thunder had hit the ground and exploded without a sound.
Jay went crazy in an instant. "Rose, our marriage is destined. You can’t regret it."
Rose was not to be outdone. "Sir Ares, if you mind my marriage history and if you mind the existence of my daughter, then I don't understand. Why are you forcing me to marry you? Don’t you know nothing that’s done forcibly will be agreeable?"
Josephine's pupils were staring widely. "What? My brother’s forcing you to marry him?"
This news shocked Josephine. Her brother was a
diamond of a single man who the ladies of Imperial Capital most wanted to marry. If he wanted to get married, all he needed was to roar it out and there would be countless notable young ladies sticking to him one wave after another.
Why was Rose forced to marry him through such a despicable method?
A chill was trapped in Jay's cold eyes, and it met Rose's stubborn eyes.
"Agreeable or not, you and I are destined to be inseparable in this life." Jay's lips and teeth were slightly parted, his cold and threatening voice flowing from between his teeth. It was like the clamor of a devil, and it remained in Rose's mind for a long time.
After Jay spoke, he got up and left.
Rose sighed gloomily.
Baby Robbie looked at his mommy who had lost her wits and comforted her, "Mommy, Daddy is handsome, rich, and gentle. Why don't you want to marry him?"
"Daddy likes you," Jenson added.
Baby Zetty made a sound of opposition, "He's bad."
Rose rubbed the children's foreheads and said weakly, "Mommy needs some quiet. Why don't you go upstairs and rest first, hm?"
The three children reluctantly left.
Josephine had recovered from the shock, but Jenson's phrase 'he likes you’ once again stunned her.
Josephine stood up swaying and said, "I think it's necessary for me to have a good talk with my big brother."
Rose waved her hand at her. She leaned her head on the back of the sofa and closed her eyes, regaining her composure.
Mrs. Zonder walked over quietly and brought a bowl of lotus seed soup for Rose. Softly, she said, "Miss Rose, it's time for supper."
Rose opened her eyes as suspicion filled them. "Mrs. Zonder, it's late. You should go rest soon. Supper can b e saved for next time."
Mrs. Zonder smiled. "I can't save it. The young master repeated insistently, saying that Miss Rose is in poor health and needs some good nourishment."
Rose spewed out the lotus seed soup that she had just drunk, staring at Mrs. Zonder blankly.
Her gaze was complicated and obscure.
Josephine was even more rooted to the spot.
"It seems that I really need to talk to my brother." She ran upstairs.
Pushing open the door to Jay's bedroom, she saw his tall and straight figure standing in front of the French windows. For some reason, he looked a little lonely and bleak.
"Brother!" Josephine entered and closed the door.
She walked up quietly behind Jay and suddenly hugged him from behind, leaning her head on his broad shoulders. "Brother, are there any secrets you're keeping from me?" 1 Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Jay reached out and pushed her head away. "This position is not yours."
Josephine raised her head suddenly. "I know, isn't it Angeline's? But Angeline is no longer here. It’s not as i f you'll die if you let me lean on your shoulders."
