After Deanna had finished preparing breakfast, she sat aside. Jacky sat down and gazed at her. He asked, "Is the food not tasty?" "No." She thought potatoes were alright but she didn't want to eat potatoes then. All she wanted was to go home. He stared at her and he then took a potato to eat. After that, he stood up and told her to have her breakfast quickly as they would be leaving right after this. Deanna didn't dare to defy him. She quickly finished her potato and went out to look for Jacky. Jacky waited for her outside. The moment she came out of the house, she saw him standing in front. She hurried over to tell him, "I've finished it." "Mmm, let's go." Jacky led the way and she followed him like a lost puppy. She had no idea where Jacky was heading, and she didn't dare to go against him either. All she could do was to follow him. They walked for a few miles, and she teetered arduously after him. She didn't realize it was such a long route when s
"Scarlette, calm down. I'll call and ask if there's any updates. You can save your worries for later if something has happened to her." Raeleigh called Zorion to inquire about Deanna. Zorion ignored her and hung up immediately. When she heard the beeping sound on the phone, Raeleigh understood that he was implying that she was being too nosy. In other words, it indicated that Deanna was safe and sound. "Deanna is fine." Raeleigh's eyes landed on Scarlette, who was on tenterhooks. She was surprised to hear what she had said. "What did he say on the phone?" Scarlette asked. Raeleigh shook her head and said, "Nothing. The fact that he did not say a word meant that she was alright." To Scarlette, her words somehow made sense but she wanted more reassurance. She got up and went to Deanna's house to look for her. After waiting for a long time, she finally saw Deanne walking out of the villa with a new phone in her hand. "Deanna, why didn't you tell m
Scarlette neither told anybody that she was leaving, nor did she pack her clothes. She simply bought a flight ticket and was ready to disappear off the face of the Earth. Raeleigh saw her off at the airport, and she wept for a while. When it was time to board the plane, she turned around and left without any hesitation. Raeleigh stood still as she watched her leave. When she turned around, Jepherson and Stuart came into her sight and they walked up to her. Jepherson raised his head and looked around. His face fell when he realized she was there alone. He asked coldly, "Why are you out by yourself? What are you doing here?" Sweat formed on Stuart's forehead. It seemed to him that Jepherson was about to blow a fuse. Looking at his exasperated expression, Raeleigh didn't bother to explain herself. To her, they were strangers and had nothing to do with each other anymore since they had broken up. Hence, there was no need for her to explain herself. She didn't
After Cynthia got better, she was transferred to an ordinary ward. Scarlette was gone. Raeleigh immediately got a specialist to be in charge of taking care of Cynthia. On one hand, it was Cynthia who had been looking after Raeleigh after she had her miscarriage. On the other hand, it was indeed inconvenient for a man such as Santiago to take care of Cynthia himself. "Raeleigh, thank you. I'm sorry for causing trouble." Cynthia repeated this multiple times throughout her stay in the hospital. Raeleigh disregarded them all. Unlike Cynthia, she seldom spoke during her recovery from miscarriage. It was even more unlikely for her to say the things Cynthia had said during that period. However, Cynthia was different. She would repeatedly tell the same thing to Raeleigh. Raeleigh was accustomed to it. She thought Cynthia wouldn't give up expressing her gratitude even if she told her not to. Cynthia had to stay in the ward and seldom get to go out. She also had not
At that time, Xanthus said, "I heard that Hadrian is fine now. Is it true?" Raeleigh looked at him. "I'm not sure." "I've seen him around campus, all alone. I think he's probably looking for Scarlette." "Then, Scarlette is going to have trouble coming her way." Raeleigh always felt that Hadrian was not the kind of person who would give up easily. It could even be said that he would not give up. However, Scarlette did not understand this point. Why did he have to come out? It'd be fine if he did not show up. Who knew what would happen now that he did? In fact, Scarlette did not care much about Hadrian. On the contrary, she was concerned about the Moore family's matter. Raeleigh asked Xanthus, "Has Flynt been attending classes recently?" "Yanora is a murderer now. He has to deal with her affairs. Where would he have the time to attend class?" Xanthus did not know whether he should be glad that Raeleigh was in the hospital. If she wasn't, then he
Cynthia was quite confused when she heard Raeleigh's words. So, she asked Raeleigh, "What do you mean?" Raeleigh turned around and glanced at Cynthia. "Deanna is no longer a child. She keeps a lot of things to herself. Zorion must have realized that she no longer relies on him. He, as her brother, is not used to it." Raeleigh had just realized it. It was normal for Zorion to take care of his sister, but he did not need to watch her every step, and he did not need to hold her hand. Only a boyfriend would do such things. However, Zorion ticked everything on the list, as her brother. Wasn't that a problem? However, Zorion was definitely not a person who wanted anything out of his sister. It was just that he was very important to Deanna. It could be said that even Jepherson could not replace her brother in her heart even though she had loved Jepherson for more than ten years. At that time, a person named Jacky, had changed Deanna. Zorion, as an elder brother, was al
The brothers' eyes met as they engaged in a staring contest. Santiago shrugged. "She won't listen to me." "I'll come back and beat the crap out of you," Jepherson said as he turned around with Raeleigh in his arms, and walked out of the door. He carried Raeleigh into the car. When Stuart saw him, he immediately opened the car door for Jepherson. For several times, Raeleigh wanted to get up, but her pain got the better of her, paralyzing her. "Don't move." Jepherson held Raeleigh in his arms. He held her down to prevent her from getting up. Only then did she stop moving. Raeleigh leaned back in the seat and watched the scenery outside the window. She had suffered chest pains before when she was younger, but it had never been this excruciating. Jepherson rested his head on Raeleigh's. He initially wanted to test Raeleigh's temperature, but as soon as he got close to her, he could not bring himself to pull away. Jepherson rested his head against h
Jepherson's eyes were cold and threatening as he approached Raeleigh. He lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "Raeleigh, do you believe that I will carry you in right now?" Raeleigh glared at Jepherson. He continued, "I'll count to three. If you still refuse, then I'm going to carry you in." Raeleigh gave him a nudge when she heard what he said. He immediately took her hand and started counting while staring at her. "One... Two... Three..." Before Raeleigh could react, Jepherson had finished counting. He bent down to pick Raeleigh up. Raeleigh struggled for a bit to get away. However, Jepherson did not let her go. He held her in his arms and entered the office building. Raeleigh felt helpless and said, "I can walk on my own." Jepherson paused for a moment. He placed Raeleigh down after a few moments and quickly reached out to hold her hand. Raeleigh was stunned for a moment. She appeared displeased. She stared at her hand which had been g
