After seeing Josephine off, Jay returned to his mansion and went straight to Rose's room.
He knocked on Rose's room door. Rose, in her black thick-framed glasses, opened the door and looked confusedly at Jay.
"You're looking for me, Sir Ares?"
Jay had been trying to avoid Rose whenever he could. Hell must have frozen over and pigs must be flying in the sky.
"I'll pay for the clothes and jewelry you need for joining Josephine's birthday party. I'll also pay the penalty for any lost work. If there are any other conditions, you just have to list them." Jay's tone of voice was like a lord commanding his servant.
Rose was a little surprised. Not only Jay loved his sons, but he also indulged his sister.
However, he had no feelings for her.
"Sir Ares, if I accept your financial aid, then I don't think I'll be able to face Josephine honestly. Don't worry, I'll definitely show up at the birthday party tonight. I'll source for the clothes and accessories myself. On the other hand, please don't disturb me while I'm working."
After that, Rose closed the room door.
Jay's expression was thunderously dark when the door was closed in front of him.
He turned around and was about to leave when Rose's room door opened again. Jay turned around with a smug grin on his face.
He knew that without his help, Rose would not be able to show up at Josephine's birthday party without embarrassing herself.
However, he did not expect what Rose subsequently asked him. "Can you pick up the kids from the kindergarten in the afternoon? And please..." she smiled shyly,"... help me fetch Baby Zetty along with the boys."
Jay nodded. It should have been his responsibility to pick up the children, but Rose's tone of voice sounded as though he was picking up only her children.
Jay was very unhappy about that request. He left with a dark expression on his face.
