novelxo Chapter 253
After starting the car, Jay Ares sped in the direction of the airport only to change his destination after receiving a sudden call from Grayson.
"Mr. President, someone it was just reported that someone has seen Rose Loyle around Eminent Honor's entrance. However, she was only seen there for a moment before she vanished again. That's the last known whereabouts of Rose Loyle that we have. In other words, it's been an hour since we lost her."
"Alright, I've got it. Keep searching!" Hanging up the phone, Jay Ares turned the car around and drove in the direction of Swallow City.
Honestly speaking, there was no guarantee that Rose Loyle would be in Swallow City. Jay merely thought that since she had not yet given up on Severe Enterprises, she would perhaps drop by to visit her grandfather-Old Master Severe-as well.
Although Swallow City was 120 kilometers away from Imperial Capital, Jay Ares made it there in under forty minutes. Consequently, having stepped a little too hard on the accelerator, Jay Ares left the kids to bundle together in fear. 1 Out of the blue, Jay turned his head around to look at his children. He solemnly remarked, "No matter who it
is you see in a bit, do not forget your manners."
Baby Robbie nodded.
Jenson remained silent.
He could not help but feel a little reluctant about having to socialize with strangers.
"Jens?" Jay Ares' gaze fell on Jens' face as he asked in a stern tone, "Did you hear me?"
"Yeah," Jenson replied wearily.
He wondered who this person they would be meeting was. He or she had to be someone important to them, or they would not mean that much to his Daddy.
Driving the SUV into the alleyway that led to the courtyard, Jay Ares was forced to bring the vehicle to a stop before he could reach the place. The road had become more narrow and was starting to close in around the car.
"We're here." Jay alighted the car as fast as he could. He did not even stop to help his kids and instead dashed to the courtyard door himself.
As a result of multiple knocks in quick succession, a voice was heard from the other side of the door," What's happening today? Why's everyone knocking on my door?"
The door opened to reveal a middle-aged, dignified-looking woman that was wearing a dress. Though she was far from young, her fair skin was rare of wrinkles as she smiled fondly.
It was Angelina Severe's mother!
"Jay?" Tears welled up in Mommy Severe's eyes as they settled on Jay Ares. "Why are you here? Quick, come in and take a seat."
"I'm sorry, Mom. I'm not really here to reminisce about the past. On the other hand, May I ask if you've seen a girl recently? She's around this tall, has big eyes, long hair, and a round face-"
Mommy Severe nodded. "She was here for a brief while, and she left not too long ago either. She went that way. What a funny lady, all she did was look at me and cry. The lady didn't say anything at all..." Only at that moment did both Baby Robbie and Jenson finally reach the courtyard. It has to be said that they had run over, their short legs limited their speed. The next moment, their father's remark rang very clearly in their ears. Immediately, Baby Robbie bowed humbly and courteously greeted. "Hello, Madam."
Upon seeing Baby Robbie, Jens followed suit and bowed. Nevertheless, his expression was frigid as he said, "Hello, Madam."
Jay Ares was quick to correct them, "Grandmother, not Madam."
Both Baby Robbie and Jenson amended themselves." Hello, Grandmother."
The sight of the charming children had tears streaming down Mommy Severe's face instantly." Such good children. They look just like you, Jay. What a lucky man you are. You have to let Angeline go and live blissfully with the mom of these kids..."
Instinctively, Jay Ares' eyes trailed toward the direction Rose had left in. Then, afraid that he would lose trace of Rose again, Jay Ares hastily bid Mommy Severe farewell, "I have to go, Mom. I'll see you soon." Jay Ares left quickly with the children in tow.
Mommy Severe watched as Jay and the children left. Suddenly, it dawned on her. Did Jay just call her 'Mom'?
Had he not always referred to her as 'Aunty Georgia'?
Not to mention, he told the kids to call her' Grandmother'.
Mommy Severe was stunned. Had Jay purposefully changed the way he called her to console her pain of having lost her daughter?
Or was it because-
