Chapter 1449


    "Angeline, you''re aware of your health condition. Jay i s forced to take care of everything in the


    household because of it. He''s a seven feet tall man who can be doing much more with his life than


    household chores. Don’t you think it''s unfair to him? If Judyes into the picture, she can help Jay


    take care of you. What’s wrong with that?" Grand Old Master Yorks said with certainty.


    Angelina''s beautiful body trembled fiercely. She could not believe that Grand Old Master Yorks


    would attack her poor health and gaslight her by mentioning Jay’s splendid future, leaving her with


    no power to fight back.


    She stood there with a nk expression. At that moment, she felt as though her soul had left her


    body.


    It took a long time for Angeline to find the strength to reply to him, "I''ll never ept polygamy. If you


    insist o n doing this, then I''ll file for a divorce. You and I will g o separate our ways and be strangers


    once again.”


    Although she said this while looking at Grand Old Master Yorks, she was obviously saying it to Jay.


    Jay’s heart was physically aching. He was in so much pain that he could not breathe. "Angeline..."


    He was doing his best to remain rational.


    He gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "I’ve made two promises to myself. One is that I''ll live my best


    life, and the other is that I’ll do everything in my power to make sure that Angeline is happy.


    Grandpa, please do not interfere with our lives and cause trouble."


    Grand Old Master Yorks looked unhappy and left with a sullen expression.

    Jay strode toward Angeline and hugged her tightly. " How could you say such cruel things?"


    Angeline was limp in Jay''s arms. She said weakly," Jaybie, it''s not that I’m cruel. I''m just afraid that


    you’ll end up like Spencer Yorks. The love of his life is just i n front of him, but he’s not able to hold


    her."


    Jay held Angeline''s face and solemnly swore to her," Angeline, my love will never be at the mercy of


    anyone. Please trust me." 1


    Angeline smiled and said, "I trust you."


    Jay let out a sigh of relief.


    On every New Year''s Eve, there would be a big banquet held in the Yorks'' stronghold.


    The women and children would gather in the Blessing Square of 48 Stronghold. They would


    prepare a few bonfires and roast whole pigs and sheep while singing and dancing. This was their


    way of celebrating the new year.


    New Year''s Eve this time around was more lively than in previous years. This year’s guest list


    included distinguished guests from Imperial Capital, and many girls wanted to see Jay, so they wore


    grand traditional attire and attended the ceremony.


    Jay was a legend in the Yorks'' stronghold.


    Jay felt uneasy attending such a grand festival.


    He was afraid of seeing Judy Moore and even more afraid of Angeline meeting Judy. Although he


    was not interested in Judy, he could not guarantee that Judy would not hurt Angeline.


    After all, Angeline was so fragile.


    During lunch, Jay begged Angeline, "Angeline, let''s skip out on the banquet tonight."


    Angeline looked at him with intrigue and said, "No matter the challenge, you''ve always risen to the


    asion. Why are you scared of a little girl? Jaybie, running away is not the solution to the


    problem."


    Jay stroked Angeline''s soft ck hair and said worryingly, "It''s not that I am afraid of her. I''m just


    worried that Judy will do something to embarrass you in front of everyone."


    Angeline stood tall and said proudly, "I want to meet her. I have to tell her to her face that you are


    mine.''


    Jay was amused by how jealous Angeline appeared and replied, "Okay."
