Sir Ares, Goodnight

Chapter 329

Everyone in the house was shocked. 'Did the same Jay Ares who has only ever been cold to his siblings actually take initiative to help Jean with work?'

The sun must have risen from the west today.

Jean replied appreciatively, "That’s good then, Jay. With you handling the matter, I'm sure Sean Bell and his disrespectful secretary will end up eating dirt."

Jay ignored him, opting to channel his focus on taking care of his little sweetheart, Baby Zetty.

Having kept silent for so long, John finally spoke, his tone sharp as he brought an old topic to the table," Jay, how could you openly bring Zetty to the Tourmaline Estate despite knowing that we don't allow people of other bloodlines here. This is blatant disrespect for the Grand Old Master’s house rules!”

At that, the overall temperature of the room seemed to drop drastically.

John’s twinkling but mirthless eyes stared at Jay. He had reminded the other before. Escaping was not a solution.

Moving Baby Zetty from his lap to the ground, Jay ruffled her hair lovingly. "Go play with your brothers. Uncle Ares has something to discuss with your granduncles.”

Nodding obediently, Baby Zetty ran out.

After leisurely taking a piece of tissue to wipe his hands, Jay corrected his posture to stare viciously at John.

"Well then, Fourth Uncle, what about children who are not part of the main Ares family? Should they still be brought to the Tourmaline Estate?"

John rubbed his nose. "I merely believe that nobody should have special exceptions to the house rules. As t o whether the house rules should be modified, well, it's not up to me to decide."

Jay turned his head to ask the others as well. "What d o you think, Second and Third Uncle?"

Both Jacob and James Ares shared a look. "We agree with John. House rules should apply to everyone."

They were trying to pull on Jay's Achilles’ heel so that the master of the Ares family would change the rules.

As far as they were concerned, if Jay could bring in children who were not even an Ares into the Tourmaline Estate, why could they not bring in their illegitimate children as well?

Such was a matter they had been bringing up for years with the Grand Old Master only for it to end in fruitless results. Perhaps today was the day of change, the day that Jacob’s and James' children would have a shot at being part of Ares Enterprises. Perhaps, they could even cut down on the eldest's power.

Jay was certainly aware of what his uncles were plotting behind their backs.

"Since the uncles have agreed that nobody should be exempted from the house rules, I shall declare that no one outside of the Ares' main family is to set foot in the Tourmaline Estate," Jay proclaimed.

The uncles were stunned. John broke the silence." Aren't you just making life difficult for yourself, Jay? You claim that outsiders should not be brought in to Tourmaline, yet why is Zetty exempted?"

The uncles seemed proud of their counter argument.

It was rare for them to grab hold of Jay's weakness, so how could they possibly let such a great opportunity slip by?

Jay had come prepared. He tossed Baby Zetty's DNA test report at John.

"Take a look at this, then tell me again whether my Baby Zetty is being specially exempted or not." Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

John read out word for word, "Based on our analysis... It's practically proven that Jay Ares is the biological father!"

As if hearing the sound of a bubble popping, John exclaimed in disbelief, "How can this be? Just how many children do you have, Jay?"

John paused for a moment in thought before smiling craftily again. "So what if Baby Zetty's your daughter? She was still born out of wedlock, wasn’t she?"

Jay glared at him. "You tell me. She was born on the same day of the same month of the same year as Jens and Robbie.”

Mirth faded from John’s expression. "Triplets! What are the chances?!"

The two uncles by the side sighed dejectedly at the news.

Grand Old Master Ares was snoring peacefully as he sat asleep on the chair with his head tilted upward. It seemed like he was adamant about leaving the concerns of the Ares family, big and small, over to Jay to handle. 1

Not to mention that Jay also happened to be a ruthless master of the family, one who cared not of his uncles' burning paternal love for their other children. His only goal was to separate and dissociate illegitimate children from the Ares family.

That only led to his uncles' displeasure at his overwhelming amount of control.

After staying for a while, Jay took into account Jenson's fear of the Tourmaline Estate and left after bidding the Grand Old Master farewell before Jenson felt unwell again.

Before leaving, Grand Old Master Ares queried thoughtfully, "Jay, is it truly a good idea to keep half of the Ares' bloodline away?"
