Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose)
Chapter 481

Jay explained, saying, "Grand Asia removed the labels to protect my privacy."

Rose found it suspicious. 'This fella's illness is not some shameful disease. Why does he need to be so secretive about it?'

After Jay took the medication, he began his work on the bed.

Meanwhile, Rose sat at the round side table at a corner in the room while concentrating on her book about patient supportive care.

It was such a quiet time.

It was unknown if Angelina's soul had transmigrated into a crappy student's body and was being unduly influenced by it, but she felt sleepy whenever she read books.

After half an hour, Rose was sound asleep with her head on the table.

Jay heard her regular and soft breathing. He tiptoed out of bed, covered a blanket over her, and returned to his bed.

He was not in the mood for work and only had eyes for her.

At noontime, Jay's mother came to visit with a sweetlooking young girl.

When she saw the care worker taking a nap at work, she burst into anger.

"What sort of care worker is this? How dare she steal a nap inside the patient's room?"

Rose was jolted awake by that sudden burst of anger. She opened her sleepy eyes to see Jay's mother in front of her.

Her sleepiness dissipated to nothing when she saw Jay's mother and the beautiful young lady next to her.

She stood up nervously and apologized, saying, "I'm sorry, Ma'am. I've neglected my duties."

"Hmph! So you know that you've neglected your duties? Then hand in your resignation letter and leave immediately!" Hearing this, Rose begged, saying, "Ma'am, I won't repeat the same mistake. Please give me another chance."

Jay's mother looked at Rose with annoyance and was shocked to replace the sickly skin that was exposed outside her mask.

She exclaimed in shock, "Grand Asia always hires nurses with a clean and pleasant appearance. How did a person like you... Get hired?" She may not have said it directly, but Rose could guess what she meant.

At this moment, she wished that she was a snail that could hide in its shell. She hoped that everyone would just ignore her existence.

Jay's gaze shifted over and he saw how helpless Rose looked. His heart ached for her.

He then noticed her hand under her sleeves that was curled into a tight fist. While looking at her, he wished that he could give her a tight hug and offer moral support.

The only thing stopping him was the worry that if he abruptly reconciled with her, she would still see him as the perpetrator from back then and run away again. What would he do then?

This time, he was not going to make any rash moves and carefully protect her. He would not allow her to experience any fright or hurt.

"Mom, are you done making a scene?" The veins on Jay's forehead surfaced.

One could tell that he was furious.

"Brother Jay."

A bird-like voice came from a young lady. Her words were 30 percent bashful and 70 percent enthusiastic.

She was dressed in a fire-red woolen coat and a white cashmere shawl. Her shiny jet black long hair was draped neatly against her shoulders.

She was so beautiful as if she was from out of this world!

"Brother Jay, Aunty isn't wrong. This care worker was sleeping during her working hours and being unprofessional. Besides, her image doesn't befit what Grand Asia stands for. In my opinion, someone must've abused their power at work to let her in without going through the proper procedure!" 1

Rose was taken aback. Then, when she turned to see who the woman was, her expression immediately turned complicated.

Sera Severe!

It was her half-sister who shared the same father as her!

Not only did she have exceptional beauty, but she also had talents that could make one proud.

Rose did not understand how Sera got to know Madam Ares. Furthermore, they looked like they shared a close relationship.

"I don't need you all to be bothered about things over here. I can handle it myself, "Jay said distantly.

There was no warmth in his tone.

Sera stood next to the bed like an alluring stalk of rose, exuding a pleasant scent.

"Brother Jay, you're so forgiving. I think she's a pitiful person as well. Why don't we just change her work station? She can be a storekeeper or something..." Jay's gaze became cold.

Seeing this, Sera was taken aback. 'Is he angry at me for speaking on behalf of this care worker?'
