Scared witless, Rose walked over and sat down lightly next to Jay.
Nancy suddenly stood up and bowed to Rose. "Miss Rose, I'm sorry for what happened the last time. I hope you can forgive my recklessness and impulsiveness."
Rose looked at Nancy in shock, her mind unable to comprehend.
The high and mighty Nancy Bell was apologizing to her?
Rose looked toward Jay. Could it be that he had used the power of Grand Asia to put pressure on Bell Enterprise and force the young miss to apologize to her?
Rose's face immediately turned red with shame.
She did not want to rely on a man to save her dignity.
Her dignity and status needed to be earned with her talents before it could count as something.
"Miss Bell, let bygones be bygones!” Rose said.
Nancy,
She had forgiven her so easily?
She rejoiced secretly in her heart. Hmmph! It seemed like this woman knew her weight, and that was why she did not make things difficult. If she had dared to
embarrass her today, she would not make things easy for her in the future as well.
Sean's gaze drifted toward Jay. His instincts told him that unless Nancy made a sincere apology, she would not be able to move on.
"Kneel!"
As it turned out, Jay was not going to let Nancy go so easily.
However, the way he only spoke the bare necessities o f the sentence threw Nancy and Rose into confusion.
Who did he want to kneel?
Accustomed to wimping out, Rose stood up. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Jay gave her a sideways glance. "What are you doing?”
Rose was startled. The person he wanted to kneel was not her?
She sat back down slowly.
Trembling, Nancy got on her knees.
Jay raised his hand and gave Nancy a loud, resounding slap.
Immediately, five bright red fingerprints appeared on Nancy's face as blood trickled out.
"Just because it’s easy to bully Rose Loyle doesn’t mean it's easy to bully me."
Jay stood up and flailed his leg.
Seeing how the situation was going awry, Rose jumped up and grabbed Jay.
"Sir Ares, why don't we let her go?"
If he did kick her, Nancy might just lose her life.
In the end, Nancy was just another woman trapped by love. She may be horrible, but she did not deserve to die!
Nancy cradled her burning face, tears streaming down her cheeks like a string of broken pearls.
Jay’s slap had made her fully understand that after all this while, her love for Jay was only one- sided. Jay was nothing but ruthless and merciless toward her.
Jay glared at the scar on Rose’s forehead. "Get out of the way."
Rose, however, clung on to his torso like an octopus as she begged, "Sir Ares, let her go!"
"She made you lose your ability to have children. You know that, right?" Jay’s heart hurt as he spoke.
Rose said dismissively, "It's alright, I already have three kids. Having kids is so painful. I never want to d o it again anyway."
Jay looked at his woman who was holding tightly onto him. She usually stayed far away from him because she was scared of him. Even when she had sat down next to him just now, she moved as close to the side as possible.
Yet, at this very moment, she was glued onto him for a woman who had hurt her.
Realizing how close the proximity between them was, Rose quickly let go of Jay.
"Scram!" Jay yelled angrily.
Nancy got to her feet and fled in disgrace.
Sean ran after her.
"Why did you forgive her so easily?" Jay asked.
Rose said with a tinge of sadness in her voice, “She's just another pitiful person."
"The proud and arrogant Nancy Bell is pitiful in your eyes?" Jay asked confusedly.
