Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose) novel Chapter 906

Zayne kept walking without saying a word.

Josephine then fled.

Zayne's footsteps hastened the moment she ran off.

Tears of fear began to form in Josephine’s eyes. "What are you trying to do, Zayne? Stop, you're scaring me.”

Perhaps it was the lack of calm that had Josephine accidentally kicking the edge of the bed while she was fleeing, making her flop onto it.

Zayne pounced on her, his hands coming from behind him to take the cut straps on the bedsheet.

"What are you trying to do? Have you gone mad, Zayne?” Josephine kicked and fought back.

Unshed tears began to well in Zayne's reddened eyes.

After he had tied both of Josephine’s hands only did h e finally let out a sigh of slight relief.

Zayne lit himself a cigarette and took a long drag, puffing out a cloud of smoke that danced in the air. His tone was pleading when he turned to look at Josephine who continued to kick about.

"Just relax for a moment, Josephine. There's something I need to tell you."

Josephine could not relax, not when the fear was driving her to a mental breakdown.

"Untie me or you can forget about talking." "If you're not going to listen, Josephine, I will have no other choice but to tie your legs up and tape your mouth shut."

The horror she felt had Josephine at a loss for words.

Though her alluring pair of eyes did drill angrily into Zayne.

Zayne looked greatly distressed. "Don’t look at me like that. I don't like having to do this any more than you d o."

Feeling as if the Zayne she knew was returning, Josephine's fear slowly mellowed out.

"What do you want with me? I’ll let you sleep with me i f that’s what you want. You don’t need to tie me up for that."

Zayne's gaze swept over her opened collar before he turned away in embarrassment. "It's not like that."

"He said, maybe your father had no other choice but to throw you out of the Ares family."

Josephine Ares froze.

"How could that be? Why would Jay defend my father? My father tried to marry me off to Hiroshi and oppressed Jay however he could. After all the wicked things he has done, what do you mean maybe he had n o other choice?" Josephine refused to believe him.

Zayne smiled bitterly. "Your father must really regret not being more ruthless with the both of you now."

Josephine felt that there was more to his words than met the eye. "What do you mean?"

"Your father did everything he could to hurt you in hopes that you would hate him and leave Tourmaline Estate."

Josephine scoffed. "Exactly. That way, he would have full control and ownership over Ares Enterprises."

Zayne shook his head. "You’ve misunderstood your father, Josephine. Yes, your father doesn't want you back at Tourmaline Estate, but that’s because there's a n impending doom fated to befall the estate."

Josephine cracked up, choking on air as she stared suspiciously at Zayne. "Do you need to see a psychiatrist, Zayne? I don't think you're doing very well."
