Chapter 10

After giving his long and incisive anecdote analysis, Grayson looked at Mr. Ares with a proud and expectant look.

Just as he thought Jay was about to praise him for his wit, Jay shot him a deadly look full of daggers.

"OCD? Autism?" Jay sounded calm but there was definitely underlying anger in his tone.

Grayson's forehead started dripping beads of sweat.

Grayson bit his own tongue. Even though Master Jenson was a handful and a problematic child, he was still Mr. Ares’s beloved son. The only person who was allowed to criticize Master Jenson was Mr. Ares.

If anyone dared to say bad-mouth Master Jenson, they were essentially digging their own graves.

Sure enough, Jay said in a dangerous voice, “Grayson, it seems that you know Jenson very well. Why don’t I pass the responsibility of taking care of Jenson to you?”

As soon as Jay said that, Grayson's face fell and he begged for mercy,

"Mr. Ares, I have my entire family to take care of. Please forgive me. Master Jenson already made eleven drivers resign within the last seventeen days. Three of them had a relapse of high blood pressure and two of them were diagnosed with coronary heart disease from frustration. And five of them became so messed up that they couldn’t find their way back home. And the last one even developed schizophrenia from the trauma...”

Jay self-righteously defended his son. “If they were already unhealthy from the get-go, a high-risk occupation such as a driver is obviously unsuitable for them.”

Grayson was sweating profusely from the humiliation.

‘Even Mr. Ares knows that being a driver for Jenson is a high-risk occupation,’ he said to himself.

Grayson steeled himself and tried to defend the heroic drivers, “Mr. Ares, the dangerous part of the job wasn’t the driving. It's just that Master Jenson is too ruthless."

"For example?" Jay said lightly.

Jay was always happy to learn about his son's actions.

"Take Mr. Zach for starters. He always had underlying blood pressure issues. One day, Mr. Zach praised Master Jenson for his intelligence, but Master Jenson replied, “Not as much as you! You’re a shining beacon of knowledge!” For context, Mr. Zach was bald. Therefore, when he heard Master Jenson's words, his high blood pressure relapsed on the spot.

"And there's also Mr. Lionel. He suffers from anxiety and his eyelids frequently twitch. Master Jenson managed to convince him that he had a serious muscular disorder. Poor Lionel got a panic attack and was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment."

Jay's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

‘That sharp tongue of Jenson is seriously a force to be reckoned with.’ he noted quietly.

Jay went into deep thought to analyze why Jenson acted the way he did.

Jay organized his thoughts. ‘This kid has always hated strangers from the bottom of his heart and has always been very dependent on me.’

Something pulled on Jay's heartstrings. He made up his mind to make some significant arrangements to cure Jenson's rigid mindset.

"Grayson, we’ll go with your plan,” Jay said abruptly. “Find a way to coerce Rose to be Jenson’s nanny.”

Grayson looked rather bashful and mumbled, "But Miss Rose ran away. Trying to catch her now would be as hard as it was five years ago.”

Jay snorted. "Oh, did she really?”

Grayson's eyes lit up with realization. Of course... Miss Rose has submitted her mother's application for hospitalization. She can no longer run away

‘I guess Mr. Ares really did figure everything out.’

...

Splendid Town.

As soon as Rose got home, she hurried to the bathroom to clean up the signs of the abuse. Then, she changed into long sleeves and trousers before coming out.

When she saw her two kids silently binge-watching TV shows in the study room, she did not give much thought to it. Instead, she went to the kitchen to prepare their meals.

In the study, the two little kids were lying on the floor, staring intently at the monitor. After secretly making sure that Mommy left, Baby Robbie immediately ordered his sister, “Quick, go and shut the door. I have something nice to show you.”

Zetty trotted quickly to the door and locked the door from the inside.

When she was done, she dashed back to her brother in anticipation.

"What did you want to show me?” Baby Zetty looked at Baby Robbie excitedly.

Baby Robbie held out his right hand that was clenched tightly into a fist. When he unfurled his fingers, there was a tie clip lying in his palm.

Unimpressed, Baby Zetty grumbled, “Isn't this just a tie clip?”

"This is no ordinary tie clip."

"At most, this is just a very expensive tie clip." Baby Zetty pursed her pink lips disdainfully.

Baby Robbie said mysteriously, "What do you know? This tie clip was taken from the bad guy who kidnapped Mommy. This is evidence. We can use this tie clip to find the criminal who kidnapped Mommy."

Baby Zetty looked at her brother in awe. "If we find the bad guy, can we avenge Mommy?”

Baby Robbie's eyes glowed with anger. “Of course. I'm all grown up. As a young man, I vow to protect you and Mommy forever.”

Baby Zetty took the tie clip and lifted it up to observe it. "How can we trace a tie clip back to its owner?"

Baby Robbie smiled slyly. "Look at the words on the tie clip."

Baby Zetty turned over and saw the embossed words on the tie clip.

"Jay Ares!" Zetty read the name aloud.

Baby Robbie turned up the volume of the show they were watching but the video player was reduced to the bottom right corner.

He then opened the internet browser and searched for “Jay Ares”.

"I knew it. That jerk who stays in the president’s lounge of Grand Asia Hospital is a big tycoon. Look, Zetty. That guy's the president of Grand Asia Hospital… Whoa, that's a huge net worth”

Robbie browsed through Jay’s Baidu Baike page. He moaned, “Too bad there’s no photo of him.”

Zetty said sagely, "Villains like him wouldn’t dare to post their pictures.”

Robbie suddenly gave a wicked smile. "Hmph. How dare you bully Mommy. Just you wait, I'll give you a taste of my fury.”

After a few moments of fiddling, Robbie finished his handiwork.

He used his hacker pseudonym—Master Robbie—to hack into Grand Asia Hospital's network where he tampered with the network security key. He altered Grand Asia’s elegant web page interface into a crashed system in the form of a challenge that read:

"Jay Ares, how dare you bully beautiful girls? Show your face so we can have a fair fight, man to man! If you can beat my challenge, good for you. Oh yeah, have I mentioned that I’m five years old..."

When he was done, Robbie switched off the computer and the two tiny “adults” went outside to have their lunch as if nothing had happened.

Almost immediately, the people of Grand Asia discovered the anomaly in the network. They notified Jay in a trice.

"Mr. Ares, Bad news! Our network has been compromised by hackers!"
