Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose) novel Chapter 142

Jay looked at that arrogant smug and thought to himself, 'Since you don't want to be a maid, I have my ways to make you unconsciously turn into the Ares family's maid.’

"Next time, I will eat with the children. I'll eat whatever you make and will pay you some money for i t. How does 20,000 a month sound like? You can still enjoy your regular weekends and holidays. What do you think?" Jay set out a trap for his prey.

Rose thought about it. 'I have to make food for the kids every day, anyway. It doesn't seem like a hassle to make an extra portion for him either, and I can earn a n extra 20,000. Why not?'

"Deal.” Rose happily took Jay's plate away.

A smug success was seen under Jay's eyes.

At night, Jay went to his study to handle a document. When he came out, he found that Jenson and Baby Robbie were not in their rooms.

He looked at his wristwatch to see that it was already their bedtime.

Jay heard a clear voice coming from Rose's room. The expression on his handsome face darkened. Jay was the kind of gifted student who did not need to study too hard yet could still ace in every subject, thus he hated those who wanted to stuff all sorts of

extracurricular activities to the children all day and all night. Jay was not pleased that Rose was occupying the children’s bedtime.

He subdued his rejection toward Rose and went to her room to check on what was happening. Rose was reciting Yi Shu's prose poem, 'To Oak Tree'.

"If I ever love you,

"I'll never be like the scrambling trumpet creepers, showing off by your branch high up in the sky;

"I must be a ceiba near you, standing beside you as a tree.

"Our roots, holding the earth tightly; our leaves touching each other in the clouds. With each passing wind, we send our regards to each other, but nobody can understand our language. You have your tough branches made of copper and iron, like falchions, like swords, and also like halberds.

"I have my blooming red flowers, like heavy sighs, but they can also be like heroic flames.
