The third lady and the woman in black feuded fiercely and violently.

Jay's brows furrowed out of irritation.

Rose looked at Jay, as if celebrating this disaster. "Sir Ares, I heard that the Ares family matters are now yours to settle. Surely a man like you who's unfamiliar with women has no idea how to handle situations like this? Why don't you call me 'Big Sis' and I'll fix this for you?" 1

Jay,"..."

When she saw that he was reluctant, she blew her own horn and said, "I'm a seasoned veteran when it comes to love. If I help you, all you have to do is give me some money!"

"Tell me then, just how seasoned are you?"

"I've been in love for 17 years. You tell me just how seasoned am I."

Jay smiled till traces of it could be seen in his eyes. 17 years... Did that mean she had loved other men before?

"I've no money left!" Jay replied.

After giving his card to her, he was broke.

Rose turned down her offer faster than she could turn a page of a book. "Then you'll have to deal with this

yourself. We all have to learn how to face this kind of thing someday."

Jay's expression suddenly became clouded by a dark shadow.

He walked over to the woman, his expression cold as ice.

"You were Xavier's guardian, so you should know that he was physically and mentally challenged. Why did you still let him wander around?

"Now that you're using his death to extort from the Ares family, this gives me enough reason to suspect that you have something to do with the arson. I'm going to call the police to make a report against you!" The lady fell to the ground, gazing at Jay with terror.

Jay diffused the situation with just a few words, making Rose respect and admire him a lot.

The rest of the family breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Rose's righteous voice came echoing across the room!

"Maybe the guards were careless, so they let the boy slip through into the hotel." i

Although her voice was soft, it had the power to turn the tables around!

Jay asked her, "Have you seen the footage?"

Rose shook her head.

"Were you at the scene of the incident?"

Rose shook her head.

Jay caressed her head. "You didn't investigate the matter, so you have no right to speak."

Rose, "..."

With his patience worn out, he turned to the lady and said, "If you want justice, you should've gone to the police. Let me remind you, though, spoiling the name of the Ares family comes with a thousandfold price to pay."

The woman's face turned ashen.

The Ares family's defamation insurance was nothing to be trifled with back in the day.

Jay wanted to set things right once and for all, so he had spent a huge sum of money to purchase a large insurance premium for defamation. Those business corporations who tried to defame the Ares name paid with all their fortune after having failed to do so.

From then onward, the Ares family suddenly became the kings of monopoly in Imperial Capital.

Nobody dared to get into a court case with the Ares ever again.

Word of Jay's brutal and vicious methods soon spread across the land.

The woman stood up shakily, her wistful eyes set on James as rage, dissatisfaction, and despair swirled in

them.

"Never mind, this is my son's life. I couldn't even do anything for him as a mother..."

The lady left the scene despondently.

Rose, however, was left stunned by the woman's words.

It was true that against the Ares family, they were weak and helpless.

Old Master Ares' birthday feast resumed, yet Rose felt a tightness in her chest. She panicked and slipped out of the grand hall.

Jay tailed her, asking, "Rose, where are you going?"

He stopped her short of the elevator. He was unhappy.

Rose was furious at him because of his tyranny, so she blurted out, "I want to take a look at that poor mother!"

"And then?"

"I wish to help her." "How are you going to help her?"
