Chapter 778
Regardless, Angeline wore an expression of ignorant courage and spoke, "He doesn''t have a say in
this."
Jay responded with an ''if you may'' gesture. "Tell me how it goes."
Angeline was stunned at how easily he was letting her off.
Had she known he would be all bark and no bite, she would not have spent thest few days
constantly looking over her shoulder.
Exiting Jay''s hospital room, Angeline was shocked to realize that Sera’s was right next to his.
"What a coincidence." Angeline sighed.
What she did not know was that it was Jay''s intention, just so he would have the chance to see her.
In Sera’s hospital room sat Jack''s first wife next to her bed, caringly feeding Sera chicken soup.
Mockery danced over Angeline''s expression as she leaned against the doorframe. "Thank you for
taking s o much care of my sister, Madam.”
Both the madam''s and Sera''s gazes turned to the door. Seeing Angeline, their expressions instantly
turned to shock.
Angeline continued, "Although, I’m curious why you’re
not taking the time to worry for Josephine, your daughter. Don’t you care to know about how she''s
living and all when you clearly have the time to feed m y sister soup?"

Sera looked at the madam suspiciously. The kinder the other was to her, the weirder she had begun
to feel.
The madam was more impatient than anyone on the day of herbor, though Sera filed that away
as the madam having a heart of gold and caring deeply for everyone in general.
However, suspicion began to grow when Sera knew of the madam''sck of care for Josephine''s life.
A look of embarrassment shed through the madam''s face before she reverted to being gentle and
calm. "Thank you for worrying about Josephine, Miss Severe. However, from what I know, the
reason Josephine is locked out of Tourmaline Estate by her father is due to careless friends."
Angeline chuckled lightly. "I’m sure you''d know better than I, Madam, if it is truly due to careless
friends or if there’s a deeper reason behind.”
With that, Angeline entered the room.
Sera red at her. "What do you want? Did youe here tough at me?"
Angeline replied, “Would you stop being so calctive?"
Sera scoffed and turned her head away.
Angeline stated her purpose, "I''m here because Grandfather wants me to ry a message. He
wants to know your ns for the future. Whether you''ll stay by Jack Ares'' side as his dodgy
mistress, or if you’ll return to the Severe family and restart your life... Live all over again as Miss
Severe."
Sera bit her lip, ashamed.
Ever since she could remember, she had spent her life silentlypeting with Angeline.
If Angeline liked Jay Ares, she would like him even more.
She devoted herself to studying in hopes to be outstanding enough to destroy Angeline. The
madam loved her, and she had even carefully maintained her subtle rtionship with Jay Ares.
She had believed that Jay''s love for Angeline would stretch over to loving her family as well, thus
treating her, Angeline''s sister, well.
However, she was knocked down by Jay''s cold indifference in the end.
It had finally dawned on her that the spot in Jay''s heart was reserved for Angeline and Angeline
only.
She was doomed to lose even if Angeline did nothing.
"Alright. I''ll go back," she muttered softly.
The madam’s hand slipped, and the bowl fell onto the floor. "Are you sure, Sera? I can protect you
from harm if you stay by my side, but I can''t say the same about the Severe family now that they''re
bankrupt."
Angeline stared at the bowl of soup on the floor, shocked by the madam''s outburst of a reaction.
"Madam, by staying with you, wouldn’t my sister need to call you her sister? While both of you serve
the same man?" Angeline spoke, purposefully provoking the madam while her sharp eyes locked
with the madams''.
