Raeleigh didn't find out until the next morning that Jepherson had returned to the company for work. He called her as soon as he walked into his office. Raeleigh received the call. When she reached the elevator, someone knocked her down. Raeleigh was wearing a set of overalls. Everyone knew that only Raeleigh dressed this way. Everyone else dressed differently. The company didn't have any specific rules when it came to the dress code, especially for designers. So, as soon as Raeleigh showed up, someone recognized her right away. Someone had deliberately bumped into her when she was in the elevator. When she fell down, the people around her avoided her, and no one went to help her. Raeleigh knelt on the ground and held her knees for a while. Lamarre came over and found her on the floor. He bent down to help her up, but she couldn't stand up and her head kept shaking. Lamarre knew that she didn't look good, so he bent down and took Raeleigh somew
At Richards Manor. Jepherson was seated in the hall downstairs, surrounded by people. The policemen were also seated across from him. Jepherson stared at the door. Jepherson didn't want to hear any of it. He only wanted to say one thing. "Raeleigh is injured. I want to know who did it to Raeleigh, who is badly injured right now. I will hold the person responsible accountable." "Mr. Richards, look at this. Your staff has already admitted to their crime. Do you want to..." The police were very embarrassed by this case. Some lower-level employees mentioned that there was likely another reason why this happened. Generally speaking, it was because Raeleigh went too far with the way she treated another female staff member, so they were against her. And the fall didn't cause them any trouble. Jepherson looked away and said, "I've been very clear about the whole story. I don't want any of you interfering. They only said that because they're expected to, and they m
Raeleigh was pulled to the side by Jepherson. He checked to see if she was okay rather grumpily. He then let her hands go, looked at Scarlette, and said, "Be careful." She stood next to Hadrian. He had just reached Scarlette anxiously, while Jepherson looked at him disdainfully. Hadrian just had to bear his gaze. Even if his girlfriend did do something wrong, Hadrian didn't want other men to scold her, especially to her face. He also had to ask for leave for their trip back that time. "Scarlette, you should go over there, for now. Be careful when you walk." Hadrian took her to one side of the room. Although Scarlette didn't want to, she had no choice. What was more, Hadrian might not leave that time. There will be plenty of time in the future. Did she have to worry about that? Scarlette moved to one side of the room, and Hadrian spoke directly to Jepherson. "Young Master Richards, I'm here to ask a favor from you." "Go ahead." In front of peopl
Raeleigh and Xanthus had been reading books for the whole afternoon inside the room. Then, Raeleigh fell asleep. Xanthus then placed some medicinal herbs on her knee, and Xanthus then fell asleep while keeping an eye on Raeleigh. It was late when he woke up. Xanthus got up to prepare dinner. The door was locked, so Raeleigh stayed in the room and didn't go out. Even if Jepherson wanted to come in, he couldn't. Things were busy downstairs. After Scarlette knocked several times on the door, Raeleigh still remained silent. She stood at the door and called out to her, "Raeleigh, please open the door." Raeleigh didn't answer. Instead, she read a book about Shakespeare. "Raeleigh, are you in there?" Raeleigh knew Scarlette was standing outside the whole time, but didn't she didn't go out. Scarlette soon gave up and went downstairs. Xanthus ordered takeout for dinner. He didn't want to eat with so many people around. The food was brought over to the t
Marissa woke up early the next morning. She felt ill and uncomfortable the night before, but the medicine she took was effective. She started to dress up and wanted to look her best as her son was coming back with his wife to visit her. Stella was also fine that day. Marissa arranged for Stella to be dolled up, so she was given a complete makeover. Following Jenna's arrangements, she was a completely different person and looked like a noble lady. Marissa called Jenna after finishing the preparations. Jenna told her that she was about to arrive home. She was already in Capital City, but was stuck in heavy traffic near the airport. "Of course traffic's going to be slow, as it's the peak hour of the day. But it's fine, take your time, everything here is fine." Marissa comforted Jenna. "I know, you don't have to worry about me too," Jenna replied. "Okay." Marissa hung up the phone and looked at Stella, who was sitting next to her. "Don't worry, I will help you
After returning to Green Jade Garden, Jenna breathed a sigh of relief. It was too tiring to accompany her mother-in-law. It would be very tiring to plan so many things while a person is alive. At that moment, Hansen was sitting in the living room of Green Jade Garden, accompanied by a few servants. The father and son were sitting across from each other, playing chess. They were playing chess and talking at the same time. Jenna entered the room while the father and son were talking. "Remember everything that has happened. Don't think that you can do anything without a care when I'm not here. You'll start to suffer when both of you are married." Hansen was rarely mean to his son. He would always think from his wife's perspective, and his wife was his backbone. He would do whatever his wife wanted him to do. Jepherson held a chess piece. "Is there a time when your heart hurts so badly that you can't breathe?" He lowered his head slightly. Th
"I know very well that my disease is already beyond treatment. What's more, cancer is not a disease that you can cure with money. In that case, I don't really see a reason to treat it. Whether I'm going to be dead or alive, it'll be up to fate." Lamarre got up from the bed, took two painkillers, and put them in his mouth. He did not swallow it with water. He lifted the quilt and got out of bed. Right then, he looked like a normal person again. "I have been diagnosed with lung cancer. When my disease attacks, I will have a high fever and have symptoms of a cold. Raeleigh saw that I had a high fever and thought that I was only having a cold." Jepherson looked at Lamarre and said, "You are an employee of the company. I won't let you get sick. You have to be treated immediately. There is no room for negotiation." "It's impossible for you to control me." Lamarre stood by the side for a while. He opened the curtain and looked at the sunset outside the window. He
Hansen was so angry that he fainted. Marissa was so frightened that she followed him all the way to the hospital. She was in distress. She stared at her son, who was slowly waking up but did not have the strength to speak. Looking at her daughter-in-law's pale face, she did not speak. When the ambulance arrived at the hospital, Hansen was sent to the emergency room. After two hours of emergency treatment, he was safe. The moment he came out, he was covered with tubes. Marissa felt dizzy and could not stand still. She held Stella's hand and followed her to sit down. She was scared. Stella frowned. Everybody around her was busy, and she was the only calm one in the scene, watching everything around her. Marissa's heart was still fluttering with fear, and she was too old to stand up. Still, she managed to stand and followed Stella to the ward. Jenna was also scared out of her wits. Sitting by the bed, she held Hansen's hand tightly and addressed him over and over a
