Jay said, “Just treat it as a dream. When you wake up, everything will go back to the way it was."
Angeline took the tea that Jay handed her and drank it with a smile. Then, she put the teacup on the coffee table and stared at Jay. "In my dream, you were someone who could control the past and the future."
Jay touched Angeline's head. "Angeline, I'll strive to create the life you want for you."
Angeline buried her head in his arms. "I want to have a family full of children and grandchildren. I wish to enjoy the happiness of having a big family."
Jay almost spat out the tea in his mouth. " We’re still young, Angeline. That's still too early for us."
Angeline heard the insinuation. "Do you mean there'll still be disasters befalling us? Ah. When will we be able to enjoy the joy of having a family full of children and grandchildren after going through so much hardship?"
The look in Jay’s handsome eyes was dim.
"Such a day will come.”
Zayne came down from the upstairs and sat listlessly between Angeline and Jay.
"Sis Angeline, Jay, when can we go home? My dear Josie misses Joseph."
He had always called Jay 'Big Brother' before this, so the way he addressed him today was deemed impolite.
Jay rolled his eyes at him. "Call me Big Brother!”
Zayne pointed at Jay and complained to Angeline, "Look at him... Sis Angeline... He's been married to you for so long, and I've called him Big Brother for half of my life. Am I still not good enough to call him by his name?"
Angeline simply chuckled.
From the day she and Jay got married, Zayne was very dissatisfied that he had to call Jay 'Big Brother'. He had been brooding about this for half his life.
Jay said shrewdly, "I can call you Big Brother, but you have to actually become the big brother. Hence, you'll have to support me in the future."
Zayne was dumbfounded.
