Chapter 396


    Snapping back to reality, Rose moved awkwardly back to Jay.


    Josephine stared questionably at Rose. The discrepancies in her behavior caused Josephine to feel


    rather... Uneasy.


    "Sister-inw, you can''t possibly be having feelings for Zayne, right?"


    "Huh?" Rose was shocked.


    Zayne spoke up, "What do you mean, ''huh''? With how you kept staring lovingly at me, my


    girlfriend''s bound t o misunderstand."


    Josephine spared Jay an anxious nce. She was afraid that her brother, being the control freak he


    was, would misunderstand Rose and thus rain fury upon her.


    However, Jay took it all in a stride, sitting elegantly as if nothing had happened. There were no


    indifferent walls put up when he gazed at Rose.


    This was not Jay''s style at all.


    "I didn’t stare lovingly at you," Rose argued with a huff, "You’re not a 100-dor bill either. Not


    everybody has t o love you!"


    Zayne choked, wishing nothing more than to throw this woman into the sea to feed the sharks.


    Jay could not help but chuckle.


    Walking over with a menu, the waiter asked respectfully, "Young Masters and Misses, is there


    anything you''d like to order?"


    "Seafood." Josephine looked at Zayne. "Your favorite."


    Jay, however, interjected. "Red meat."


    Displeased, Josephine protested. "Jay, but you like seafood too!"


    Gazing lovingly at Rose, Jay said, "She likes game birds."


    Zayne felt his heart skip. Rose was just like his sister, Angeline. They both liked to eat game birds.


    Surprising everyone, Zayne acted gentlemanly this time. "If game birds are what Miss Rose likes to


    eat, I''m down to try."


    Josephine smiled and nodded. "Up to you."


    She yed the role of a mindless wife going along with her husband''s whims.


    "Can’t you stand up for yourself, Josephine?" Jay was exasperated.


    Josephine replied confidently, "Don''t you want Sister-i nw to obediently follow what you say as


    well, Jay?"


    Looking at Rose, Jay frowned. For her to follow his words obediently...


    "Maybe in another life!"


    Rose felt attacked. Was she not gentle with him?


    Josephine chuckled. "You''ll have to work harder, Jay. Women''s hearts are actually rather easy to


    conquer..."


    Jay rolled his eyes. "That only applies to you.”


    Josephine shot her own foot.


    Rose quickly spoke to save Josephine from embarrassment. "It’s not that difficult to conquer my


    heart either!"


    Zayne fired back, "Nonsense. As if there''s anyone who can resist Master Ares’ charm."


    Rose was speechless."..."


    The dishes arrived quickly with Angeline’s favorite tete de veau right in the middle of their


    rectangr table.


    Both Jay and Zayne reached for the calf’s head at the same time with their cutleries. Neither of


    them had the intent to yield.

    Josephine and Rose were shocked...


    Neither Jay nor Zayne liked eating calf''s head!


    Zayne spoke, "It reminds me of my sister. I remember how she loved this dish..."


    Jay replied, "So does Rose.”


    Josephine stared nkly straight ahead... Her brother was giving Sis Angeline’s favorite calf''s head


    to Rose. Did that mean Jay was finally walking out of the


    psychological shadow she left behind?


    Yet it did not feel real for Jay''s love for Angeline Severe stemmed from within his bones.


    Zayne''s shocked gaze once again fell on Rose. She loved to eat calf''s head too?
