Chapter 91
"I'm not in the mood to argue with you today, Jay Ares. I need to save my son," Rose's mind was preoccupied with Baby Robbie's safety. She did not have the energy to care about the consequences of angering Jay. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Jay gritted his teeth. His eyes were burning with rage. "Rose Boyle. You are the first person to beat me. I will remember this, and I will come back to this after your son is rescued."
"Whatever," Rose said tiredly.
Rose managed to get a reprieve from fighting with Jay because they had a child to save.
She received a call from the kidnappers again." Transfer the money into my bank account..."
"How much?" Rose asked.
"Two hundred million!" The kidnapper doubled the ransom on the spot.
Rose did not have that much money. She could only look at Josephine helplessly.
Josephine displayed an awkward expression on her face. The card that her brother gave her had a limit of one hundred million. Where was she going to find the other half of the ransom?
Rose could read from Josephine's face that she was
also helpless. She had no other choice but to turn to the richest person among them.
"Sir Ares, can you lend me some money?" She said, biting her lip. Her lip was bleeding as she squeezed those words out of her mouth.
The grudge of being slapped was still fresh in Jay's mind. It was the perfect chance to get back at her. " Beg me!" He said with a cold, sinister smile on his face.
"I beg you," Rose said drily.
"Is that how you beg for help? Don't tell me I can't get your legs to bend for two hundred million?" Jay furrowed his brows.
Rose tremblingly kneeled on the ground. Her tears could not stop falling. How humiliating it was to be shamed by the man she loved!
Josephine covered her eyes. She could not bear to see.
Her brother might be the victor for now, but she knew that her brother would soon regret it when he knew the truth.
Josephine could imagine that her brother's face would be a thousand times more dramatic than the scene right now when he discovered that Rose had borrowed two hundred million from him to save his son.
"Enough already. Can't you show a little mercy, Brother? It's just two hundred million, right? How about if I borrow it from you instead?" Josephine could not bear to watch anymore. She helped Rose on her feet.
Rose did not dare to stand up before Jay agreed to help her.
Jay glared angrily at his sister. "This is none of your business. Step aside."
"Do you think that I'm helping her, Brother? I'm helping you," Josephine said.
Jenson suddenly hopped down from Jay's arms." Stand up, Mommy. I have the money. I'll give it to you," he said to Rose.
Jay was incredibly frustrated that his son was not on his side.
Jenson stretched out a palm to his father. "Daddy, return my New Year's money to me."
Jay thought that it was incredibly tragic that his sister and son had turned on him.
