The night was quiet.Angeline lay on the bed as she tossed and turned, unable to sleep.Her grandfather’s words to her during the day made her fall into entanglement and conflict.Grandfather hoped that she would put aside her resentment and accept Anne as her family to expand the Severe family’s social status. The old man’s heart was actually in the right place.However, she could not come to terms with it since she despised Anne for stealing her father. Now, her mother had to be all alone. She also detested Sera for fawning over Jay. Subconsciously, she always felt that Jay belonged to her. It was a disgraceful behavior on Sera’s part to covet her brother-in-law. It was simply impossible for her to bear no ill-feelings and accept them into the family whole-heartedly.Then, she heard a sigh amidst the night.Angeline heard the sound and got up as she sat in shock.She focused her ears to make sure that she had not heard it wrong. Did someone heave a sigh outside the window?

It was four o’clock in the morning when Cole returned to the mountain villa. When he opened the door and entered, Carson was standing behind him like a ghost.“Are you heading out or are you just coming back, Young Master?” Carson rubbed his eyes sleepily. His voice was akin to a ghost that was crawling out of an ancient well.Cole shoved the coat in his hand into Carson’s arms. Then, he sat down on the sofa in the living room with a darkened face. He picked up the hip flask on the coffee table and began to gulp the contents down.Carson walked over. “Who made you this unhappy, Young Master?”Cole swallowed a mouthful of liquor, and the corners of his lips curled up in anger.“That damned woman, Angeline Severe, actually rejected me after I went all the way there to present myself!” Cole scoffed angrily.Carson’s jaw dropped in astonishment.Did he hear him right? His young master went out wanting to frolic with that woman in the dead of night but was rejected instead?Cole p

Yosemite looked at his sweet daughter and back at Seth, who was continuously nodding his head. He could somewhat believe his daughter’s words.“In that case, find a time to get married as soon as possible. You’re not young anymore, Yumi. You can’t afford to stall it.” Yosemite knew that if the scandal was spread, the Titus family’s honor would be destroyed.It did not matter whether Yumi liked this hothead. Marriage was the best way to protect the Titus family.Personal profit before everything else was a businessman’s way.Sometimes, even a daughter’s happiness had to be sacrificed.Yumi nodded, yet the smile on her face quickly dimmed. Yosemite wanted to suppress this matter resolutely. “Although I don’t particularly like your family, Seth, since you and Yumi are in love with each other, I won’t be a hindrance. My daughter should still get married in a grandeur manner. I know that the Severe family is not at their prime, but even if a rich family is not as rich as they were be

Angeline chuckled goofily. “What are you saying, Sir Ares? Not a day has gone by where I don’t dream of meeting you again.” Her exuberant smile ran a shiver down Jay’s spine. “I’ve reminded you before, Angeline Severe. Don’t involve yourself with shady men.” Jay’s tone grew dark. Angeline’s eyes widened in indignation. “As if I need you to remind me that, Sir Ares. My mother’s never allowed me to spend time with shady people ever since I was a child. Forget shady men, she wouldn’t even let me be around shady women.” “Are you still playing dumb?” Jay’s tone was dark. Angeline’s mind clicked, and she knew that she could no longer keep the situation under wraps. Quietly, she murmured, “What’s youth without stupid decisions, Sir Ares?” Hidden in her words was a jab at how Jay too had done the same when he was young. Her words reminded Jay of the things he had done when he was young and head over heels in love. Kissing her when she was down with a fever because he could no

The madam’s panic was not lost to Angeline’s eyes. Kneeling on the floor, the madam picked up the shattered shards of porcelain. Angeline sighed. “I’ll process the documents for your discharge.” However, when Angeline returned from completing the discharge paperwork, she was met with the sight of Jack and his henchmen at the hospital room door. “I’m here to bring you home, Sera.” Now that his dirty secrets had been thrown into the light, Jack decided to forego his gentlemanly facade to blatantly take hold of Sera from Angeline. Sera remained quiet as she sat on the bed in complete disregard of the fight between Jack and Angeline. Like an abandoned puppet, she would follow whoever won. Angeline, as far as Jack was concerned, was only arrogant because she had Jay backing her up. Now that the two had separated and were on horrible terms, Jack paid her no attention. What he did not know was that Angeline was the type of person who worked better the stronger the pressure.
