Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose) novel Chapter 1574

Jay blamed him, saying, "You regret it, don’t you? You regret giving her such a cruel and inhumane order. You're her birth father, Monster. Yet you allowed her t o die while pledging her loyalty to the military intelligence division. What right do you have to control her destiny?"

Monster roared in sorrow. "Do you really think I wanted her to die? I merely don't want her to end up like me."

Monster was struggling, and the hemp rope was causing wounds on his arms.

Jay retorted, "How do you know that she would've ended up like you? Do you think we’re the same kind o f people, so blinded by hatred that we'll mercilessly kill the innocent?"

"But you wouldn’t have treated her kindly!” Monster emphasized.

Jay said, "Perhaps I wouldn't. However... My wife would've.”

The anger surging in Monster's eyes flashed quickly like fireworks, and it gradually grew calm.

"What's the point in saying all of this? She's dead, so this conversation is of no use.” Monster snarled.

Jay continued, "I'm not finished. Although she bit her tongue and attempted suicide, she very unfortunately survived. My darling Angeline, although sickly, had carried her out of the dense forest. She's now in the medical clinic receiving treatment."

Monster's eyes widened, and a touch of surprise appeared.

However, in a flash, his surprise turned into anger.

"So, are you using her to threaten me? I’m telling you now that your efforts are futile. I'll never hand over the Boyes' medical results to you."

Jay's eyelashes were drooping, and his eyes were unfathomable.

Suddenly, he got up from his seat and appeared rather indifferent. He merely gracefully added, "When I found Angeline in the dense forest, Thirteen was curled up i n her arms like a child who was dependent on her mother."

Monster was astonished, but after the shock wore off came the thunderous fury. "So that brat has such an absurd affection toward Angeline. It's no wonder she refused to carry out my will to poison her."

Only he and Thirteen knew of this secret. Even Daisy from the military intelligence division was not aware o f this scheme.

Jay asked, "Are you curious as to why I've kept my guard up against Lil Thirteen, who could barely move a t the time? You'll know the reason for it as long as you're not a dunce."

Monster looked at him blankly. "What's the reason?"

Jay unnecessarily complicated it, "It just so happens that I'm not a dunce."

Monster grew depressed.

What kind of an answer was that?

Jay started to explain leisurely, "The girls in the military intelligence division had a somewhat vague impression of their past lives. However, Lil Thirteen was the only one who didn't, so I had long suspected that you adopted her before she could think for herself. And what kind of good and kind seedlings could you have possibly grown anyway? Hence, I had never trusted her."
