Jay was surprised as he looked at Jordan who had a face that did not change even after going through the vicissitudes of life.
They had a similar attitude when it came to how they treated their woman.
Somehow, the pregnant Sera had appeared at the door. She looked flustered and had watery eyes as she looked at Jay as if he was her pillar of support.
Chloe was taken aback when she saw Sera. Perhaps Sera’s pitiful looks had touched her, thus she pleaded with Jay, "My son, let her stay. Let her be my servant."
Jordan was a man who spoiled his wife to no end. Although he hated Sera as he felt that she was a woman who had no self-respect, he still followed Chloe's wishes when she had the intention of keeping Sera. "Jay Ares, since your mother likes her, then let her stay."
"No." Jay was firm in his reply.
Jordan then decided to veto Jay's opinion. "Don’t forget I partly own Fragrant Vessel Court as well. I want to keep her."
Jay's expression was livid. He looked at Sera's pregnant belly and heartlessly said, "Sera Severe, I’ll arrange for a doctor to perform a genetic test for the fetus as soon as possible."
Sera paled the minute she heard that, but she hid her flustered expression well.
Jay then left in anger.
Chloe arranged for Sera to stay on the ground floor in one of the servant's rooms, but Sera was displeased with such arrangement.
She had thought that she would be able to upgrade her lifestyle with her pregnancy, but she ended up needing to serve Chloe while being pregnant. She felt a sense of discrimination but dared not show out her displeasure openly. 1
Sera was not a simple-minded woman either. After some thought, she realized that Jay was a filial son. All she needed to do was be nice to her future mother-i n-law and get her approval, then perhaps Chloe would intercede on her behalf. That way, Jay would slowly accept her.
