Chapter 1720


    "If others know that I''m your wife, my boss will fear m e and my colleagues will stop at nothing to


    tter me. Do you think I''ll be able to make genuine friends?" asked Angeline.


    Jay was dumbfounded. "Do you still need more friends?"


    Angeline was slightly stunned. She realized that Jay was starting to get paranoid again and quickly


    hugged him while acting coquettishly. "Having you by my side is enough for me, and I don’t need


    any more genuine friends. But it’d be nice to have multiple friends in a workce. It’ll lead to more


    paths in the future."


    Jay said with an extraordinarily domineering tone," There''s no need. You have me, and I promise


    you all the paths will still lead you to Rome."


    Angeline,"..."


    It seemed like today was not a good day for negotiations.


    "Let’s postpone the job hunt. Darling, school''s about to start, so let’s prepare for the children''s


    advancement instead," Angeline cleverly changed the subject.

    Jay absent-mindedly muttered, "They''re all grown up now, so let them handle it on their own."


    Angeline was stunned.


    She was much older than the children, so why was she not allowed to handle her own things?


    "I think I’m also able to handle things on my own..." Angeline said in a whisper.


    Jay stared at her, his eyes growing more serious.


    Ultimately, he reluctantly held Angeline''s hand and said, "Angeline, you’re not in good health. I''m


    worried about you."


    Angeline was both upset and touched by his gesture... I t seemed like her illness had made Jaybie


    unable to forget it for the rest of their lives.


    "Alright, do as you please." She suddenly showed her white teeth as she smiled.


    She had no reason to refuse Jaybie’s care for her anyway.


    Jay breathed a sigh of relief. "Attagirl."


    Downstairs, there was suddenly a bunch of bell-like peals ofughter.


    "Daddy, Mommy?"


    The children''s voices came one after another.


    Angeline was ecstatic. "Are the children home?"


    Jay frowned. "If those little brats havee home, who’s cooking their meals for them?"


    Angeline reprimanded him in a low voice, "Darling, it''s not often we get to see our children. You


    cannot dislike it when theye home. They''re growing up, and our time with them is getting


    shorter. One day, they''ll grow into towering trees and no longer rely on u s. Perhaps at the time,


    you''ll be begging on your knees for them toe home.”


    Jay curled his lips into a smile. “You''re right. Then help me up and we’ll go greet the children.”


    Angeline said, "You''re a patient. Justy down and I''ll call them in."


    Jay replied, "No can do. That''ll affect the stalwart image I''ve imprinted on the children.”


    Angeline was in betweenughter and tears. As such, she helped him put on a coat and they


    walked downstairs.


    Once the children entered Carefree Garden, they all walked silently in to not disturb Jay''s rest.


    When they entered the living room, they saw Jay sitting on the sofa. Angeline was as busy as a


    bee, making a fruit tter for the children.


    "Hello Mommy, hello Daddy."


    "Come here and sit," Jay''s face that was like an ice sculpture melted into a loving smile.


    All the children sat down around Jay.
