Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 411

"Xavier Ares!"

Jay asked casually, "Who is he?"

Furious, John scolded, "You have no heart! How many brothers and sisters in the Ares family can you actually name?"

He replied coldly, "Can you not leave me hanging like this?"

John then said, "He's the son of your third uncle's second wife. He had polio when he was a kid, has a bad leg, and was mentally challenged since birth. As for yesterday's fire, every normal person would have escaped immediately. It was only that poor cripple who died in the flames."

After hearing this piece of news, Jay sank into deep thought. "Mm, he'll make a good chess piece."

"Chess piece?"

"Regarding his death, someone will seek justice for him. If it was an outsider, then the Ares family will have to pay a fortune in compensation. However, since he's a member of the Ares family, there'll be a specific way to go about that compensation."

John was confused by what Jay just said.

Looking heartbroken, Jay continued, "These interloping women would actually use an innocent

child just to get affiliated. This is preposterous."

John looked at Jay's dark expression, shuddering before his aura of fury.

He pushed a dumbfounded John aside and walked toward Rose.

John snapped to his senses and smacked his forehead. "I thought it was a simple case of arson, but now you see this as a conspiracy."

Donned in a snow-white dress, Rose sat in the corner quietly. Her aura stood out like a flower in an empty chasm.

She was still observing and listening to everything around her, sweeping and scanning the guests who were walking back and forth.

Sydney Doyle just entered the clubhouse with a beautifully wrapped gift box in her hand. She saw Rose from the corner of her eye and walked toward her.

"Sis!"

Rose was startled by Sydney's soft and sweet voice, then her gaze fell onto the gift box. On it were the words 'Happy Birthday'.

It was then that she suddenly came to a realization.

Today was Old Master Ares' birthday. Even though she did not want anything to do with the Ares family, since she had already stepped into Tourmaline Estate, she still needed to have some sort of gift for Old Master Ares even if it was only for the sake of courtesy.

"What did you get for Old Master Ares, Sis?" Sydney looked at Rose's empty hands, a smile forming on her face.

An expression of inadequacy showed on Rose's face.

As if Sydney could guess that she did not have a proper gift on hand, she laughed mockingly. "Sis, don't tell me that your pockets are empty? Is that why you don't have a gift for Old Master Ares?" Rose felt like digging a hole and hiding in it.

Holding up her present, Sydney boasted. "I heard that Old Master Ares likes to collect antiques, so Daddy purposely picked a million-dollar antique as a gift for him."

Rose replied, "It's not the price but the thought that counts."

Throwing her a condescending look, Sydney retorted," Daddy said that this gift is very important. We must get Old Master Ares' favor. Now, don't you get smart and mess things up. If not, the Ares family will have a score to settle with the Lolye family."

After hearing this, Rose was unhappy. "I was chased out of the Doyle family, so whatever gift that I decide to give Old Master Ares is none of your business."

Furious, Sydney yelled, "Rose Doyle, hasn't the Doyle family suffered enough in your hands-"

A towering figure threw a dark shadow over Rose's body.

Sydney looked back in shock, only to see Jay's ashen expression behind her back. She ran with her tail between her legs.

Raising her empty hands, Rose pouted. "You didn't remind me to prepare a gift for Old Master Ares." Jay replied, "What present would you like to give him?"
