The Lucky Wife novel Chapter 22

"Why not?" Rose asked immediately.

"Quarreling with a classmate's parent and making the child skip school… And you still have the nerve to ask?" Jay gnashed his teeth, his anger that he was bottling up for the entire day was finally being vented.

Rose's temper was also rising.

It seemed that the sneaky Nancy must have snitched on her actions.

Rose's face curled into a sneer. "Sir Ares, do you even know why I confronted that parent? Why I took Jenson out of school? It was because—"

Jay interrupted her coolly, "I don't need to know why. What you’ve done was enough to show me how immature and retarded you are!"

Rose retorted immediately, "I faced that foul parent because she hurt Jenson and criticized the way you raised him. Do you know how badly that could affect Jens?

"Sir Ares, you have no right to criticize me before investigating what had happened first."

Jay looked at Rose's adamant look and raised his eyebrows. After not seeing her for five years, her stupid mouth seemed to have become more intelligent and the things she said were somewhat logical.

"So what’s the excuse for skipping school?”

Rose's face darkened.

"Jenson doesn't like going to kindergarten," she whispered, a look of pain in her eyes.

Jay stood up and his big, tall body instantly shrouded her in his shadow. "A failed son stems from an overbearing mother,” he said severely.

Rose raised her sparkling bright eyes and tried to reason with Jay.

"Sir Ares, transfer Jenson to another school! Jenson is very resistant to going to that kindergarten. The children and parents there don't accept him well. This kind of environment won’t be conducive to Jenson’s mental growth!"

Before Rose could finish what she wanted to say, Jay took a step forward, his 185cm from towering over the petite and lowly Rose.

He looked down at Rose like a mighty lord, contempt in his eyes.

"Rose, you have no right to tell what to do. My Jenson is not someone like you, one who runs and hides at the first sight of trouble. I’ve always taught him how to deal with difficulties."

Rose said imploringly, “Mencius’s mother moved three times so that her kid could have a good environment for education. Sir Ares, you should emulate Mencius’s mother...”

"Rose!"

Jay roughly cut her off. "If you really understand how important the environment affects someone, then set an example for Jenson. If you’re late again tomorrow, don't bother coming in." Jay finished his sentence and went upstairs.

"Sir Ares, I... I promise not to be late." All of Rose's stubbornness went out the window instantly.

Rose sighed helplessly as she looked at his back leaving firmly as if he was a king dominating her.

"And..." Jay hissed, standing on the stairs on the second floor, looking down at Rose, "You’re not allowed to hang up my call in the future."

Rose answered weakly, "Got it."

Jay turned and left.
