"If you don't do well in the exam, then I'll give you a special privilege." "I don't want your privilege. It's the same if I rely on myself." Raeleigh pulled her hand back, not liking Jepherson's behavior. She turned around and walked back to the school. At that time, Jepherson turned around and returned to the car. He sat in the car and ordered Stuart to go back to Richards Manor. He wanted to go back and check on Marissa. For the past few days, Marissa had been waiting for Jepherson to return home. She had waited for a few days, but he had yet to come back, so she seemed very impatient. Hearing that Jepherson's car had already arrived, Marissa's face darkened as she said coldly, "He still knows the way back. I wonder where he has been hiding. I asked him to bring Deanna back to visit me, and he instantly ran away, leaving not even a trace of a shadow. This must mean that he's sick of me nagging him." "Who's sick of you?" Jepherson stepped in. Marissa was
Raeleigh got out of the car and was pulled over by Santiago by the wrist. Holding her hand, they walked into Richards Manor. Scarlette left Raeleigh's things safely in the car. After all, who would dare to come to the gate of Richards Manor to steal something from the car? Wasn't that asking for trouble? With that thought in mind, Scarlette chased after them. Raeleigh was escorted to Richards Manor. Just as she entered, she saw Zorion and the Old Madam of the Richards family standing there, chatting away in the Ink Garden. Marissa wore a long formal dress and a white cloak. The skirt was dark green, which made her look dignified and regal. Seeing Raeleigh's appearance, Marissa froze for a moment. How could that child dress that way? She then looked at her grandson, Santiago, and understood. Was he trying to tell others that they were birds of a feather? In fact, Raeleigh was also dressed in a simple and elegant way. However, on such an occasion to me
After coming out of the room, Raeleigh immediately walked around with her head lowered. Santiago stood outside the door. Inside, Jepherson said, "I'll take a break. You guys can go off to eat." After he had said that and had closed the door, Santiago turned around to look for Raeleigh, only to find that she had already made her way downstairs. He went downstairs and followed after her. All the servants on the lower floor knew what was going on. The one named Raeleigh was not there with Mr. Santiago. Rather, she had gone into Mr. Jepherson's room and had been inside for a long time. Throughout that period of time, Mr. Santiago not only did not get angry but he also sat downstairs, eating and drinking, watching TV and playing with his cell phone. Everyone was not clear about what was going on, but no one dared to say a word about that matter. It seemed that anyone who talked about it would be sentenced to death immediately. Raeleigh went out of the door and
Raeleigh also did not expect that Santiago would eat all her leftovers. But at that time, if she tried to stop him, then she would be the one deemed insensible. It would have been inappropriate if she took it back to eat on her own too. In the end, she could only watch. Jepherson on the other hand simply remarked, "You're indeed quite thin." After saying that, Jepherson took a sip of red wine. The corners of his mouth were lifted up. Raeleigh didn't dare look at him because if she looked at him too much, then her eyes would hurt. Raeleigh could not make sense of such a man. Soon, Santiago finished eating Raeleigh's leftovers. Deanna bit her lip as she grimaced. What was he doing? Zorion held his sister's hand tightly with a big smile. Since the game was being played that way, Zorion thought it was fun. Santiago had a gulp of red wine and wiped his mouth with a napkin. He looked at the time and stood up. "We're leaving. There's work to be
They did not manage to make it back to campus. Instead, Raeleigh was taken by Santiago to his villa. After entering the building, Santiago took a look at the time and saw that it was already two in the morning. He decided to call Jepherson anyway, and within an hour, Jepherson had made his way to the villa. When he entered the house, Jepherson first went to look for Santiago, who was sitting downstairs. Seeing that he was fine, Jepherson ran upstairs to find Raeleigh. Raeleigh heard someone knocking on the door and stood up to open it. It was Jepherson standing outside the door. Raeleigh froze for a moment, and Jepherson reached out to pull Raeleigh into his embrace, squeezing her hard, as if he wanted to melt and merge his body together with hers. Raeleigh remained silent the whole time. Raising her head, she fixed her eyes on the roof and raised her hands to hold Jepherson. Jepherson was breathing hard, very hard. Raeleigh knew that he was afraid and wor
Santiago glanced at the others before he smiled at Cynthia. He then turned to the old butler and said, "Let's go." The old butler was busy calming himself down. He wondered what Santiago was up to and why there was something so strange about him. Elina was left out in the cold. She turned around to look at Santiago, who had already left. She was slightly angry. The Richards family had harmed her family before. What were they doing there? Elina turned to look at her two daughters. Her eldest and second daughters were both looking towards the direction in which Santiago had left. Her second daughter's face was still somewhat red. How could she not know that she was longing for love? Elina's expression instantly darkened. "Cynthia." "Yes." Cynthia turned to look at her mother, Elina. "Mother." "Do you know who he is?" asked Elina with a dark expression. Cynthia was also a smart person. She thought for a moment and said, "I know. He's from the Richards f

Raeleigh had woken up by the time Santiago returned home. As she had overslept, she was a little anxious when she walked downstairs. She had to sit for an exam. As she contemplated, she realized that she had not been doing anything in the past week. "No worries, Jepherson will make the necessary arrangements," said Scarlette, who was standing by her side. "Nah, it s okay," Raeleigh said. "I ll sit for the exam." She glanced at Scarlette. It annoyed her that Scarlette had been perpetually lacking in independence. "Hey, Santiago, you re back," Scarlette said. She stood up the instance she saw Santiago. Giving no reply, Santiago headed straight for the kitchen to grab some snacks. He acted as if he did not see Scarlette. "Jepherson has always left some food for you," Scarlette said. Raeleigh recollected that Jepherson had instructed that some food should be allocated for Santiago when she had her meal with Jepherson a moment ago. Scarlette was right.
