Chapter 390


    Despite having never paid attention to his own looks, praise from this woman somehow turned his


    negative mood around.


    Rose murmured under her breath, "Don''t you know? The grass is always greener on the other side


    of the fence.”


    Jay shot her a death re. "What other men do you want?"


    Rose shut her mouth and shook her head.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    Moving his arm from her shoulder to her waist, Jay squeezed her tightly against himself to the point


    where Rose felt as if the air from her abdomen to her lungs had been squeezed out.


    For a split moment, she felt suffocated.


    "Since you''ve slept with me once, Rose, you’ve signed yourself off to a lifetime of sleeping with me.


    You''re well aware of me being a clean freak, yes? I’ll throw you into the furnace should you have the


    slightest thought toward another man."


    Rose nodded and bowed in a puppy-like manner." There''s not a second of which I don''t remind


    myself that I''m yours, Sir Ares.”


    "Good." Then, he said, "Grandfather wants me to entertain the guests. Wait for me here. I''ll be back


    soon."


    It was as if a heavy weight lifted off Rose right as Jay turned to leave.


    Sean walked elegantly toward Rose.


    "Orchid!”


    "Sean, our n ends here." Taking the opportunity, Rose rified with him.


    Sean tsk-ed disappointedly. "I should have known he would end our love before it even started."


    Rose was speechless."..."


    "Miss Rose." Nancy Bell appeared out of nowhere.


    Standing in front of Rose, she red domineeringly at her.


    "Yes?"


    "Didn''t Miss Rose swear to love my brother just a few days ago? Yet here you are in Master Ares''


    arms in the blink of an eye. You have quite admirable skills, Miss Rose."


    Rose sshed the red wine in her hands onto the other’s face. "Watch your mouth, Nancy Bell."


    Nancy red at Rose. "Was I wrong though?" A venomous smidge of a sneer appeared in her


    eyes.


    Suddenly, she lifted an arm to overturn the wine rack b y her side, sshing Rose with wine as the


    multicolored bottles came crashing down.


    Not expecting such an outburst, Rose could not shield herself in time and waspletely drenched.


    Watching the scene, Sean immediately removed his outerwear to cover Rose.


    Nancy intentionally raised her voice and said, "Of all the people to fall in love with, Brother, why did


    it have to be such a half-hearted one like her? Sure, you were i n love, but she has already found


    someone else, so why can''t you just forget about her?"


    Both Rose and Sean were shocked to their cores." Nancy Bell, you stop this nonsense now!"


    Everyone’s gaze fell on the trio as the banquet hall grew silent.


    "Don’t force me to sue you for defamation, Nancy Bell!" Rose stated angrily.


    "Defamation? You''re an utter conman, an absolute liar. How about you listen to yourself, then tell


    me whether I''m framing you or not."


    Nancy took out her cell phone and tapped on the video she had secretly taken. She had already


    paired the device with therge screen disy out front.


    Immediately, the screen showed the scene of both Sean and Rose on their knees with no regrets,


    begging for Stanley Bell''s blessing on their rtionship.


    The screen blinked twice right after the video was projected on it.


    The electricity was cut off.


    Right as everyone was getting into the gossip, Jay had reached Nancy while wearing a sinister


    expression on his chiseled features. A cold tone escaped his lips as h e uttered out, "You’re very


    much wrong if you think any Tom, Dick, or Harry can nder my woman. You''ll pay for your actions,


    Nancy Bell!"


    Nancy had not expected the tables to turn against her so quickly. She had nned to drag Rose


    into the abyss with her, then neither of them could marry Jay.


    It never crossed her mind that Jay pampered her to the point of covering for her even without


    knowing the full story.


    "I''m doing this for you, Master Ares. So that you know what kind of person she truly is."


    "I know her better than anyone else." Jay clenched his jaw.


    "Men, capture her. Bring her to the police office after the Grand Old Master’s birthday celebration. I


    want her sued for defamation.”


    "Yes, Sir."


    At that, Nancy was dragged away as she red at Rose with utmost hatred. ''This isn’t the end,


    Rose!’
