Chapter 174


    Rose''s thoughts were muddled. She could not think calmly and rationally when she was in front of


    Sir Ares. She began speaking incoherently, "Her face, her nose, and her mouth are bigger than


    yours, Sir Ares..." Jay’s face was as big as the size of a palm, like a masterpiece carved out by the


    heavens. It was certainly not an existence that was superfluous.


    Unable to stand it any longer, Jay sprung up from the chair, beckoning to Rose by hooking his


    fingers.


    Rose shuffled over in a daze. Jay suddenly pinched her mouth shut with his pliers-like hands as his


    other hand grabbed the rubber tape next to him. He sealed her mouthpletely.


    "Since youck the ability to express yourself, you should probably use your hands instead!" he


    eximed in a domineering, ruthless, and cruel manner.


    “Mm... Mmm..." Rose red at Jay as she cursed him incoherently, "Jay, you b*stard, you


    sc*mbag..."


    Jay returned to his chair, his furrowed brows smoothing out. He took out a piece of paper and a pen


    from a drawer. He handed them over to Rose. "Draw her."


    Rose shook her head vigorously. This was clearly something that she could exin in just a few


    words.


    Why did he ask her to draw instead?


    Drawing was too much trouble, was it not?


    Besides, he was the one who taught her how to draw. She would give herself away if she drew in


    front of him, no?


    Jay looked condescendingly at Rose and ordered," Hurry up and draw, Rose. Don''t waste my time."


    Rose tried her best to speak clearly, "I have poor drawing skills."


    Jay gazed at her. "Is it worse than your ability to express?"


    Rose picked up the pen suddenly and began drawing o n the white A4 paper.


    She was still able to conceal her brushwork at first, but slowly, as she gradually entered a more


    enjoyable state, she began exposing her habits instinctively.


    For example, when she took intermittent pauses, she would wrap the pen in her fist out of instinctive


    habit. Even though she was only randomly scribbling, her brushwork revealed how adept she was


    at drawing.


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    Jay studied the way she held her pen and the way she drew the strokes. A touch of surprise slowly


    seeped out of his eyes.


    If it was not for Rose''s face, he would have thought that he was having an illusion. He would think


    that Angeline was the one drawing instead.


    Rose drew a few more strokes and raised her eyes to see the shock in Jay''s eyes. That frightened


    Rose so much that she dropped her pen in a haste. She was so flustered that she adjusted the way


    she held her pen. This time, she was holding the pen normally.


    However, the more she tried to cover it up, the more astonished Jay was. What was she trying to


    hide?


    He scrutinized Rose''s expression with surprise and bewilderment. He made a startling discovery


    when he noticed the way she pouted her mouth and the aggrieved look on her face, the way she


    asionally disyed yfulness, the way she would drop her eyes in contemtion... The charm


    she disyed was simply that of Angeline’s clone.


    For some inexplicable reasons, Jay''s chest started rising up and down. He tried his very best to


    suppress the burning curiosity in his heart.


    When Rose was done drawing, she blew out a mouthful of air and shed him a smile.


    What he saw startled him once more. Whenever Angeline wouldplete an extremely difficult task


    that he had set for her, she would also blow out a mouthful of air as if relieved from a burden.


    Then, she would sh him a charming smile!


    All of a sudden, he grabbed hold of Rose''s wrist as though he had gone berserk... Rose cried out,


    "What are you trying to do, Sir Ares?"


    He did not understand what she was saying, so he had no choice but to tear off the tape from her


    mouth. He tried to be gentle but was too emotional that he still ended up hurting her in the end.


    Rose was in so much pain that she covered her mouth and began hopping around. "Ah, it hurts so


    bad!"


    Jay watched as she hopped about while covering her mouth, looking very much like the time she


    lost her head out of fear when he caught her eating instant noodles in secret... At that very moment,


    his mind stopped working entirely.


    She looked like her—very much like her! 1


    Rose suddenly turned her head back to see Jay staring at her with an exceedingly unusual gaze.


    She stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Jay’s eyes. "What''s the matter, Sir Ares? Do you


    recognize the woman I drew?"


    Jay held her wrist and stared fixedly into her eyes.


    "Sir Ares..." Rose raised her portrait and handed it to Jay.
