Chapter 102
Jay said with a straight face, "Rose, you give me Baby Robbie's custody and I'll allow you to keep your visitation rights for the first five years.”
Rose widened her eyes in disbelief. 'This is too absurd. He not only wants to take away Baby Robbie’s custody rights from me, but he also wants to take away my visitation rights in the future!’
If this was tolerable, there would be no more intolerable things in this world!
Rose stood up with her hands curled into fists as she placed them on the tabletop. With her body leaning forward, she emphasized each word through gritted teeth, "In your dreams."
The challenge in her eyes was very sharp.
Jay remained as cool as a cucumber. He was a brilliant king of the business world. He had experienced many negotiations and met many negotiators. He felt that a lowly housewife like Rose Boyle was no match for him.
"Name your price. How much before you're willing to give up Baby Robbie’s custody?" Jay casually said.
Rose felt that she was being humiliated. She was fuming mad to the point that her internal organs were bouncing within her out of fury. She glared at Jay and said, "Sir Ares, do you think your money can wipe
away my love for Baby Robbie and allow you to take away his custody from me this easily?"
Jay's mesmerizing lips curved into a cunning smile. I n his world, if money could not solve the problem, that only meant that the amount was not enough.
He thought that Rose’s angry reaction was because she wanted to bargain for a higher price.
"One billion," Jay said.
Rose was so angry that her body was trembling.
Without warning, she suddenly lifted her cup of tea and splashed it at Jay. "Jay Ares, I'll be frank. I don't want it even if you give me the whole of Grand Asia. In my heart, Baby Robbie is my life."
Jay looked at his shirt that was stained with tea. His eagle eyes emitted icy frost as he said between clenched teeth, "Rose Boyle..." That dark and dangerous tone pulled Rose's sanity back to the present. 1
Rose realized that she had stirred trouble again.
Jay stood up and looked at Rose with much displeasure. "Acting pure? Great. Money-wise, don’t expect me to give you a single cent now. As for Baby Robbie, I’m getting him regardless." He then left after throwing those words at her. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Rose was so angry that she kicked the legs of the table.
Before Jay left, the gaze he gave her was too eerie. It was as if he was the grim reaper, preparing to pull her into the underworld.
After leaving the cafe, Rose loitered around the busy streets with thoughts running through her head. The prosperous City South was perfumed with the intoxicating smell of copper in every corner. 2
For example, those passing luxury cars ruthlessly refreshed one's principles. Not all vehicles with four tires could be labeled as a car. The attitude of those car owners who relied heavily on wealth to exhibit their arrogance was the key factor.
From the luxury car owner's point of view, Rose was like a pathetic beggar, living at the bottom of the social ladder.
She dejectedly sat at the steps of a hotel. Because of her depressed look and messy hair, she received pittance from pedestrians. Some even threw her a few bills of money.
Rose suddenly laughed...
It turned out that she had been lying to herself all these while, turning a blind eye toward the vast difference between herself and Jay.
He was the chosen one by the heavens!
She was merely an insignificant being living at the bottom rung of society.
However, she had always seen herself as that glamorous Angeline Severe of the past. The one who could stand by his side and was at par with him because they were a match made in heaven.
