Chapter 1716
Seeing that he was indeed getting mad, Angeline stopped her pranks. She held his hand and said
emotionally, "Don''t you already know how significant you are in my heart?"
Jay was sullen. He was a little unsure himself. "I know that you have a stubborn personality. If you
choose to do something, you''ll persevere and see it through. So I was always worried that since my
parents had brought upon you so many disasters, you would perhaps... think of retreating. I was
afraid that in your point of view, once a husband and wife chose each other, they''d have to finish
walking on a shared path together due to responsibility and morality. Angeline, I’m scared that
you’re merely staying with me out of force, not because of love...."
Angeline was stunned by his words and was in a daze for a long time.
She stayed silent, and Jay could feel that his heart was about to jump out of his throat due to
tension.
After long consideration, Angeline blinked her innocent zed eyes and said, "Frankly, my feelings
for you are ratherplicated...."
Jay''s heart was faltering.
Angeline continued again, "If I can’t see you, my heart will be uneasy. And if you fall ill, I''ll be deadly
afraid. Moreover, I don''t like it when you have a rtionship with any other woman."
Angeline emphasized, "Subconsciously, I feel like you''re all mine."
Jay''s eyes instantly appeared more vivid now that he saw things clearly. It turned out Angeline
would be jealous because of him...
"Angeline, Angeline..."
He buried his face in her neck and murmured affectionately, "I love you."
''Thank you, Angeline. For never giving up on me.’
Angeline got up from the bed and took off the masks o n his face. "Alright now, it''s gettingte. Take
a good rest, I''ll be sleeping next door."
Jay nodded at her.
At night, Angeline was not able to sleep soundly.
When she heard the coughsing from next door, she would continuously get up to check on him.
She had been tossing and turning the whole night.
Early in the morning, Jay''s coughing became sparse, and Angeline was finally able to get some
rest.

At this moment, there was already an uproar.
"Where did Jay go?" Chloe roared hysterically.
Grand Old Master Yorks threw a fit of thunderous rage. "You knuckleheads! Weren''t you taking care
of the patient?"
Grand Old Master Ares said, "Go. Look for him, and hurry up."
Jenson merely stared at these anxious people, and there was a satirical smile in his eyes.
It had been quite some time since his daddy left Fragrant Vessel Court. They had only discovered
that h e was missing now. The amount of care they put toward Daddy was clearly not enough.
Grand Old Master Ares identally caught a glimpse o f Jenson''s indifferent expression and
regained his senses. "Jens, where''s your daddy?"
Jenson replied, "Daddy''s not used to living in Fragrant Vessel Court, so he went back to Carefree
Gardenst night."
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
Chloe mumbled, somewhat displeased. "Fragrant Vessel Court is his home. Why is he not used to
living here?"
Jenson snorted and said, "What''s so good about Fragrant Vessel Court? It''s either haunted or
people will go missing. Why would my daddy like such a dark ce?"
When Jenson was little, he had gotten scared out of his wits by Chloe, who pretended to be a ghost
haunting Fragrant Vessel Court. This caused him to have severe social anxiety. Moreover, Angeline
had also disappeared from this ce before, and she was disfigured right here as well. Fragrant
Vessel Court was nothing but a nightmare for Jay.
Chloe had merely deceived herself into thinking that Jay thought of Fragrant Vessel Court as his
home, and he would then love this ce unconditionally.
Jenson''s remarks were tantamount to insinuating Chloe of the crimes she hadmitted. It made
Chloe feel that she had once again reached rock bottom. Her face turned dark and distorted.
Grand Old Master Ares and Grand Old Master Yorks looked at each other. Both of the old men
could not help but worry about Jay''s severe illness. They suggested, "Why don''t we head to
Carefree Garden to visit that child?”
