Chapter 1273 A Good Start

Author: Flower
"It's fine, Xanthus. I'm already done," Raeleigh said. She had cooked up fish, some stewed meat, two vegetable dishes, and a beef and tomato soup - all of which were her specialties.

Xanthus looked into the kitchen with a hint of displeasure in his eyes. "Even I, as your brother, have never seen you prepare so much delicious food for me before."

"That's because you don't need me to." Raeleigh brought the soup out and handed a pair of oven mitts to Xanthus.

Xanthus raised his eyebrows. "Why don't I remember that?"

"Take your time to recall."

"Rae Rae..."

Raeleigh hummed in response, raising her head just as Xanthus said, "Have you noticed that you're being especially nice to Santiago?"

"He's still young, so of course I have to be nice to him."

Raeleigh did not notice anything wrong with what she said.

"He's just about done with puberty. Don't you think that he might have had some lapses in judgement?" Xanthus stared at the beef and t

    Before going to sleep, Jepherson sent a text to Jenna and told his mother about the incident. After reading the message, Jenna couldn't sleep in peace and she started to complain to her husband. "Is the same thing going to happen again? I thought she changed. I can't believe she is still the same." Jenna said bitterly, helplessness painted across her face. She had done her best to appease her mother-in-law but she didn't expect this outcome at all. Their children were adults. They should have the liberty to make their own choice. Why did their mother-in-law have to interfere? Jenna couldn't understand her mother-in-law's ways. She wondered if she had ever changed anything about how she went about things in all those years. Be that as it may, Marissa was Hansen's mother, and Hansen felt uncomfortable when he heard Jenna's complaint about her. No matter what kind of mother she was, she still cared for her children. Hansen held his wife's hand. "S

    Raeleigh spoke first when she saw Jepherson. "Mr. Richards." "Come here for a moment. I have something to tell you." Jepherson casually looked at Santiago, then walked towards the entrance while Raeleigh remained where she was. Santiago walked up to him and asked, "What's there to talk about? I'm Raeleigh's boyfriend now. By the way, I'm the general manager of the Richards Group from today onwards. I've already told our father about it; talk to him if you have any questions. Raeleigh will be under my supervision from now on. In this company, save for me, no one is allowed to do anything to her. I hope you understand, play fair and know your boundaries between personal affairs and business." "Is that how you speak to your brother?" Jepherson's eyes darkened, his expression as grim as his eyes. Santiago's mouth curved up slightly. He then looked at Stella and walked towards her. He raised his hand as he wanted to pinch her. Stella was so scared that she hid behind Jepherson a

    Santiago went to the Whalen family, but he was stopped when he arrived. Several servants were standing at the door, waiting for him. Santiago looked at the servants, a glint of amusement in his gaze. He lifted his leg and kicked at the door. "What is this supposed to mean?" Santiago looked displeased. These servants were afraid of offending him and one of them quickly explained that they were there to greet Rayan and Hannah as they would be returning the same day. Santiago's lips curled up into a smile. He stood at the entrance with his hands on his waist. "Mr. Whalen is coming back?" Santiago seemed to have believed it. The servants nodded to reassure him. They knew they would get in trouble if they were to cause trouble for Santiago. But their Young Master had instructed them to stand guard here. They had no choice but to do as instructed. Santiago kicked the door again. "Mr. Whalen is on his way, so I understand you are all standing here to

    The servants had no choice but to retreat and report to Zorion. But when they reached the door that led to his room, the servant's face turned red in embarrassment. His door was closed and there were noises from within. What was he doing there? The servant raised his hand but quickly withdrew. Recalling how he was scolded previously, he thought that it best to look for Deanna/ The servant walked towards Deanna's room and knocked on her door. "Miss Deanna..." Deanna pushed the door open and looked at the servant who was standing in front of her. "What's the matter?" "Well..." The servant didn't know how to explain the situation. All he knew was that there had been noises coming from the Zorion's room. Deanna looked puzzled. She hadn't eaten much in the past two days ever since her brother had put her under house arrest. Deanna tried to go on a hunger strike, but that didn't work. She refused to eat for the entire day in hopes that her brot

    Deanna sat down and fell deep into thought. Raeleigh had prepared some food, but she refused to eat anything, saying she wasn't hungry. Although she wanted to have a taste of the delicious food served, she just couldn't stomach anything. Deanna just sat there without eating anything. Raeleigh turned her gaze to look at Santiago. He sat with his legs crossed and handed her an apple. "Are you going on a hunger strike against me as well?" Deanna pushed the apple away. In the past, she would not have spared Santiago a burning remark. She would have argued back but she was oddly quiet that day. Deanna leaned on the sofa, her gaze void and empty. It was as though she was thinking about something sad and couldn't summon any energy to do anything else. "Take her upstairs to get some rest. She must be tired," Santiago said as he looked at Raeleigh, who then brought her upstairs. When they left, Xanthus inched closer and said, "She looks sick." Santiago took a

    A few seconds later, Jepherson turned around and went towards the sofa. Sitting down, he closed his eyes. Then, he said, "It's not the first time the old lady sent someone after Raeleigh's head. This time, I was stopped halfway. If I don't agree with her demands, they will kill Raeleigh. What should I do?" Santiago strolled down the stairs and sat down as he spoke. "That has nothing to do with me. I'm only interested in one thing, which is whatever I want to do. I've already told you, if you can't do it, then I will. You disappoint me." Jepherson stared daggers at Santiago and scoffed, "Is there something wrong with your brain?" Santiago shrugged, "If you really want to compete against me, that's not a problem. Go home and have fun with all the girls around you." "Women are the most terrifying creatures to ever exist. Never underestimate them. Stella Doyle isn't as simple as she seems. I don't know if she's really interested in you, but she must be plannin

    Santiago rolled his eyes, "Deanna can live her own life. She's 19 years old. After this winter, she'll be 20." "My mother used to tell me that a man would grow his backbone after turning 20 so that he can support himself. A girl would have developed a strong heart at 20 just so she can live with her partner." "You're her brother, but you don't even know her. How would you know what she wants?" "Everyone is different. You can't trap her in your own bubble." "If Deanna is willing to abandon everything and follow someone to the ends of the earth for them, I think whatever you're doing is just a waste of time." "She's not your sister, so of course you'd say that," Zorion turned around and looked at Rossie in the car. He was still worried about her and was getting anxious. After turning back, he heaved a sigh "Come on, let's fight. If I win, I'll bring Deanna home with me. If I lose, I'll walk away willingly." The reason why Zorion was so confident

    Zorion looked at Raeleigh and then at Santiago. He scoffed, "You're still young. How old are you? You are making a big mistake. She's..." "I know what I'm doing. You don't have to tell me. Do you remember when my father would take us out to play?" "Once, he told us that there were gems buried on a hill, and all of us ran up to grab some for ourselves. All of you brought back a gem, but I was the only one who came back with an ordinary stone." "You looked at me strangely and thought that I was too young to understand." "Now, let me tell you why." "Even though all of you have gems, I wasn't envious of any of you because I had something that was more beautiful and precious than a gem. Even though she is not the best, I am still willing to be there for her." Scarlette walked on the snow and gazed at Raeleigh whose expression had softened. She stared at Raeleigh's exceedingly beautiful face and couldn't say anything. Zorion laughed and slowly got to

    Santiago went home once more to retrieve Jepherson's sperm from the sperm bank. After that, Raeleigh got pregnant through medical procedures. However, when Raeleigh was only three days pregnant, the doctor made a major discovery. He informed her that he made progress with Shaney's illness , and that he might have misdiagnosed her condition. At that time, Raeleigh had been so overjoyed that Shaney was fine, and she only remembered that she was pregnant after half a month since learning about Shaney. By the time she remembered that she was with child, she wanted to stop her pregnancy. However, Santiago persuaded her to give the baby to him. Raeleigh pondered about it for a long time before finally agreeing. ...... Time passed in a blink of an eye, and Raeleigh had never expected for things to turn out the way it did. She gave birth to her second child, and Shaney had made a full recovery. Santiago had told her that the baby was the will of God, and he

    When Raeleigh got out of the car, she began staring at the Richards family's courtyard. Although the Richards family had already buried Marissa's body, Raeleigh was still unwilling to go back. However, as she gazed at Carsten's precious little face that was looking at her expectantly, she had no choice but to follow Jepherson inside. At that moment, Santigo and the other children were in the yard. When Santiago saw Raeleigh and Jepherson, he smiled and gestured at Jepherson. "What are you doing?" Raeleigh asked when she saw Santiago. "Nothing." Though Raeleigh did not believe Jepherson, she decided not to ask further. When Carsten saw Forden and Shaney, he immediately tried to break away from Jepherson's arms, wanting to get to them. The children were all gathered in the Richards family manor that day. Coupled with the four other children of the Whalen family, there were ten children altogether, and they almost occupied the entire courtyard. Ra

    Raeleigh said nothing as Carsten continued sinking his teeth into Jepherson's neck. She stared in shock as blood seeped out of his wound. Jepherson raised his hand and patted Carsten gently, then walked to the bed and sat down. After a while, Carsten finally fell asleep. He closed his eyes as he dozed off in Jepherson's arms. Meanwhile, Raeleigh had rushed out of the room to ask the hotel staff to prepare disinfectants before going back into the room to help Jepherson clean his wound. Jepherson leaned against the wall, still holding Carsten in his arms and unwilling to let go. Raeleigh frowned. "What should we do?" Jepherson's voice was a little hoarse. He had been busy for the past two days entertaining guests. "He got scared because of the crowd. He thought that you didn't want him anymore since he couldn't find you, and probably thinks that I'm the one who forced him to stay there." After bandaging Jepherson's wound, Raeleigh helped wipe Carsten's mouth. Sudd

    After Raeleigh and the others left, Santiago walked to Zorion's car and stopped him. Zorion casted a glance outside. "Rossie, you should go first. He won't show any mercy once I get off." "You knew he wouldn't show you mercy, so why didn't you think of that before you caused trouble?" "I was just kidding! Who knew he'd have such a bad temper? I didn't expect him to take it seriously." Rossie sighed and gave in. Glancing at Zorion, she finally understood that he was only using her as an excuse to escape whenever he got into trouble. She got out of the car and looked at Santiago who stood opposite her. "Long time no see." "Where's Zorion?" "He's so afraid of you that he doesn't even dare to come out," said Rossie. "It's too late to be scared." He walked up to Zorion's car with the rod in his hand, then raised the stick and smashed it against the car until it was completely wrecked. When he was done, he tossed the stick aside, turned to pick

    After leaving the kindergarten, Raeleigh followed Santiago to the Richards family manor. It had been four years since she returned, so she was no longer familiar with the place. Santiago went in, put Carsten down and asked the children to keep themselves entertained. He then looked at Raeleigh and said, "I came back this time because Mrs. Richards is dying. She has been unconscious for a while now. I came back to see her for the last time." Raeleigh asked, "Mrs. Richards?" "Yes. Jepherson hasn't been home these couple of days because he has gone to visit her. He didn't tell you about it because Mrs. Richards doesn't want to see you. While she was still herself, she did say that she would never let you into the family, and that she didn't want to see you ever again. Jepherson went to take care of her but was worried about you. So, he asked me to come home to take a look and it was only then did I find out that Carsten is autistic. This is on your plate now."

    When the time came, Raeleigh enrolled Carsten into a kindergarten. On the first day of school, Carsten was bullied. Raeleigh felt sorry for him as she gently touched his swollen face. He had been beaten because he could not speak. She wanted to confront the bully, but Jepherson stopped her. He told her that Carsten should resolve this matter by himself. That year, Raeleigh could not sleep well at night. Hair loss became an issue, and she was exhausted all the time. But after half a month, the children stopped bullying Carsten. Instead, their parents came to Raeleigh's home. "Just take a look at your child..." The parents pointed to their child, and Raeleigh was confused when she saw a boy about the same height as Carsten. The boy seemed to have taken a serious beating, but when Carsten had gotten beaten up like this, Raeleigh hadn't gone to look for trouble with the bully's parents, did she? Raeleigh retorted, "And? It's normal for

    The snow was falling heavily. Jepherson put away the phone and took Raeleigh back into the house. The two stood inside and watched the snow. Meanwhile, Hadrian and Scarlette were busy in the kitchen, not daring to make a sound. The Richards family manor remained quiet when winter was approaching. None of the family members returned even on New Year's Day. Raeleigh went to the yard and waited for them in advance, but no one came back. After New Year's Day, Raeleigh returned to her home with Jepherson. Her family members were all surprised to see her pregnant when she got home. They did not expect Raeleigh to be pregnant after being missing for several months. Moreover, she was almost due. Everyone in the Osteen family knew that Raeleigh stayed because of the baby inside her belly. Undoubtedly, the baby was Jepherson's. However, they wondered where Santiago went. Since Raeleigh said nothing, no one dared to ask about it. They all ignored the incident and sil

    Raeleigh was stopped by Jepherson's men at the entrance of the village. 'I knew it wouldn't be easy for me to run away.' "Madam Raeleigh, Mr. Richards is waiting for you." Raeleigh had no choice but to go back with them. At the same time, Jepherson sat on his wheelchair outside the village with a blanket on his lap and upon seeing Raeleigh, he breathed a sigh of relief. Raeleigh walked up to him, "Don't be complacent. I'll leave one day." Shifting his gaze to Raeleigh's belly, Jepherson stretched out his hand and pulled her to him. Despite being too weak to walk, he had a firm grip. Raeleigh lost her balance and fell onto his lap. She tried to escape, but he said immediately, "Don't move." Although his voice sounded terrifying to others, he was trying to negotiate. Everyone turned around to look at them, and Raeleigh blushed. Jepherson covered her body with the blanket, then placed his hand onto her belly. Raeleigh tensed up immediately. She ra

    Raeleigh had been depressed for a while after Santiago's departure. After a few days, she finally calmed down a little. Jepherson's health had not improved during this period of time. Whenever he was free, he would stare at Shaney's photo in a daze. Deanna and Jacky had helped take care of Jepherson when Raeleigh fell ill. After Raeleigh recovered, she returned to taking care of him herself. However, Jepherson had been in such poor health that he couldn't even go downstairs. It took Raeleigh a lot of effort to help him get down, especially when he was unwilling to go downstairs. "Autumn is coming. I don't want to go down." He was saying that it was cold downstairs. Raeleigh replied, "I can't take care of you all the time. Are you going to exhaust me to death? Your parents left you alone and ignored you. Santiago abandoned you too. What do you want me to do? I have to work. I also have to take care of you..." "Then stop working. Take care of me." Rael
