Sir Ares, Goodnight

Chapter 188

"So I was right, you did have a crush on me."

Rose said, "Sir Ares, you were always on TV giving amorous glances to all the ladies. The number of women who have a crush on you is enough to form a complete circle around the earth. It's perfectly normal for me to have a crush on you back then because I couldn’t resist your charm, alright!"

He had been interrogating her for a long time and the answers he received from her were all watertight. He let go of her shoulders in frustration and staggered back onto the couch.

"Sir Ares!"

"Just leave!"

Rose did not know what was wrong with him today as she was unable to make head or tail of any of the things he said tonight. Afraid that he would make things difficult for her again, she poured herself a glass of water and escaped.

As soon as she ran up the stairs, she noticed that Jay had passed out on the couch.

"Are you okay, Sir Ares?" Still worried about him, Rose was left with no choice but to turn back.

After placing her hand on Jay’s forehead, she realized that he was having a fever.

Rose switched on the lights to search for a thermometer. When she opened his mouth to take his temperature, she noticed red spots emerging on the inner lining of Jay's mouth.

Panicking, Rose quickly rolled up his sleeves. Sure enough, rashes were starting to spread on his arms.

Realizing that there was something wrong, she pushed Jay. "Wake up, Sir Ares. You have a fever. There are rashes all over your body. Do you want to go to the hospital?"

Jay frowned but did not respond.

Rose took his arm, examined the rashes carefully, and pressed them, saying, "This looks like an allergic reaction."

Rose called the ambulance and Jay was taken away in no time at all.

She was worried about Jay but had to watch over the children at the same time. Rose had no choice but to give Josephine a call. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Josephine hurried over when she heard the news about her brother's condition.

Rose was surprised to see Josephine when she turned up. "Why didn't you go to the hospital?"

Josephine said, "I'll take care of these little munchkins, Rose. You should go to the hospital to take care of my brother."

Rose was stunned. Now that Josephine's brother was sick, it did not make sense that she would make such a cold-blooded choice even though she doted on her niece and nephews, right?

When she noticed Rose looking at her with a dumbfounded expression, Josephine chuckled in embarrassment and confessed. "Let me be honest with you, Rose. My brother is allergic to alcohol. He’ll throw a fit and go berserk when he wakes up. He'll scold just about anyone and smash just about anything. I'm not brave enough to visit him."

Rose was rendered speechless.

Was Josephine throwing her under the bus, then?

"You're the only one who can tame my brother, Rose. Please do me a favor and take care of my brother for m e. I'll take care of these three little devils for you, okay? H

Rose asked in astonishment, "When did your brother start becoming so unreasonable?"

Josephine was blurted out, "After Angeline’s death..." However, she soon swallowed the words back in.

Angeline was now Jay’s past, There was no way Josephine could tell Rose that Jay was deeply in love with someone else. She was still hoping that Jay and Rose could reconcile and that their family would reunite.

"My brother doesn't drink, Rose. Business must have been difficult in recent years, that's why Jay has been socializing more and more. I realize that the more he drinks, the more terrible he is at drinking..." Josephine explained, concocting a cock and bull story.

She hoped that the kind-hearted Rose could take pity o n Jay!
