"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 

Although Rose rushed straight to Horizon Colors, the congested road and the short time window caused her to be late again.

Jay stood on the garden balcony on the second floor of the villa and stared at Rose rushing in. A sneer appeared on his cold face.

"Miss Rose, you’re late again."

Rose heard the chilling sound coming from above her head and her soul almost left her body from fright. When she looked up to see Jay, she was greeted by that accursed smile of his.

She panted and tried to catch her breath. All she could muster after a desperate sprint was a string of broken words. “Sir— Ares— The road— Driving…” After a few words, she began to breathe heavily.

‘Sir Ares the road driving, huh? What a fascinating sentence.’

Jay's handsome face turned as dark as coal.

"Can you speak properly?" he hissed.

Still catching her breath, Rose gasped, "Sir Ares—— There were too many cars on t

One after another, the onlookers began condemning the woman. "Exactly. You’re an adult, how could you bully a kid?”

Seeing that the situation was escalating, the woman hastily whispered to Jenson with her beet-red face, "I'm sorry."

Jenson said coolly, "No more scolding my mommy."

Rose looked at Jenson and her eyes became moist.

In Jenson's heart, Mommy was a divine existence. She owed the child too much.

The woman quickly nodded and fled the scene.

The matter was resolved. Rose held Jenson's shoulders and asked softly, "Jens, can I send you into the classroom?"

Jenson looked at the school entrance and his steps slowed down significantly. There was a lot of reluctance in his eyes.

Rose embraced Jenson in her arms.

‘The child is clearly afraid of going to kindergarten, so why should he be forced to? Perhaps something bad happened before that made Jenson uncomfortable to be here.’

"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.

Jay looked at Rose's adamant look and raised his eyebrows. After not seeing her for five years, her stupid mouth seemed t
