"Grandfather!" Jay walked up to his grandfather and called out respectfully.

Grand Old Master Ares raised his gaze and squinted. He pointed his thin finger at him. It was trembling continuously due to fury. "Tell me. Is it worth it, doing all of this for a woman?" Jay's expression appeared grave and stern. He replied instantly, "It is."

Compared to the things that Angeline had done for him, were these things even computable to hers?

Grand Old Master Ares was so exasperated that he had trouble breathing. He could barely speak anymore. "You. You... You've truly disappointed me."

Jay's father, Jack Ares, immediately walked over and reprimanded his son harshly, "Jay, watch your attitude when talking to your grandfather."

John aggravated things further by saying, "Jay's arrogant, so he treats everyone equally with that temper of his. Dad won't blame him for it, Jack."

Jay ruthlessly shot John a glare. "Perhaps you should shut up."

John embarrassedly rubbed the tip of his nose and stayed silent.

Seeing that Jay was not reflecting on himself for his

attitude, Grand Old Master Ares was even more enraged. He said in a raging tone, "Jay, haven't you ever considered that maybe Rose Loyle is not at all a simple woman? She's able to get pregnant with an Ares heir because of her scheming personality. Don't you think she's a deeply shrewd and calculative woman?"

Jay would not allow anyone to taint Rose's name and immediately retorted in a stern tone, "Grandfather, Rose isn't as scary as you've described."

She was a woman who lived and died because of love. She was a woman who secretly loved him for two lifetimes and was as fragile as a shell-less egg yolk. She was pure, limpid, weak, and brittle. He would no longer allow anyone to hurt her.

Due to Jay's supreme effort in defending Rose, everyone in the room felt that Jay's behavior was unfathomable.

"Jay, you were never close to any women, so why are you suddenly so obsessed with Rose Loyle? I think she's bewitched you," his Second Aunt stated.

"That's right, Jay. You've always been hard-hearted, yet you ran a red light in the middle of the night for Rose Loyle's daughter. You're even so openly talking back to your grandfather. It seems as if you're no longer the same person." His Third Aunt agreed.

Several of his uncles pressed on. "Jay, you need to be honest, have you fallen for Rose Loyle?"

Jay nodded solemnly.

Grand Old Master Ares sighed with resentment. "It's not that you're disallowed from having feelings for her. But is it worthwhile to repeatedly be on the headlines for a woman like that?"

Jay stared at Grand Old Master Ares with a firm gaze. "It's worth it!"

Grand Old Master Ares initially thought that his dearest grandson was merely carried away on a whim. Upon seeing Jay's adamant unconcealed love for Rose, he grew quiet.

He felt an inexplicable disappointment toward Jay.

"I initially thought that if you married her, it'd be good for Jenson. That was why I turned a blind eye to you two. Now that I see your almost frantic obsession with her, I truly regret it," Grand Old Master Ares said in a fury, "I've changed my mind. The Ares family no longer welcomes Rose Boyle."

Jay's tall and straight body shivered as he stared at his grandfather. There was a stubborn unwavering gaze in his eyes.

"All of you have already driven her away. What else could you possibly want?" he said bitterly.

Grand Old Master Ares could see the resentment in Jay's beautifully enticing pair of eyes, and his heart immediately sank.

"Jay, I never expected that a female nobody would

turn out to be your ruin one day." i

Grand Old Master Ares' disappointment toward Jay was written all over his face. Soon enough, his blue and despaired eyes emitted a resolute gaze. "Jay, you're my pride who I've cultivated hard all these years. I'll never allow Rose Loyle to destroy all of my hard work."

Jay saw the destructive gaze in Grand Old Master Ares' eyes, and his heart grew cold. He roared slightly," Grandfather?"

"To prevent you from going astray, I'd rather you hate me forever," Grand Old Master Ares said deeply.

The atmosphere in the room instantly became extremely suffocating. 1

Everyone's eyes were focused on Grand Old Master Ares and Jay.
