Subsequently, Raeleigh hung up, took a look at the beeping phone, put it down and continued her meal. Jepherson slightly lowered his head. "I don't care if you want to help Jacky, but if I find out that you're working with him in the condom business, you'd better be prepared to stay in bed with me for three days without getting out of it." The surrounding servants all lowered their heads as they were mortified to hear such lecherous words. To them, Jepherson was too straightforward. Raeleigh took a sip of her juice without answering him. After the meal, Jepherson took her to the company as usual. Zorion called Deanna to ask her when she was going to come back. Hearing this, she bounced up from the bed like a ball. "Zorion, do you want me to go back?" Deanna was eager to go back. In fact, she had been contemplating going back before receiving this call. Her brother calling her was like her dream was about to come true. Deanna's beautiful eyes ke
"Do you think I will break my promise?" Jepherson stared at Santiago as Santiago said, "Your physique is about the same as mine. I can go with Raeleigh. We will attend it if we can catch up, but if we can't, we won't attend it." "Are you using this as an excuse to go on a vacation?" "We've agreed that it'll be just a shopping trip." Santiago knocked on the top of the car. Jepherson replied, "I'll postpone the press conference for three days. You must come back in three days." "Sure." Santiago waved at Raeleigh, whose face fell. "I'm not going," she refused. Jepherson gazed at her. "Are you afraid of him?" "Who said I was afraid of him? It's just that I don't want to go out with him." Raeleigh didn't lack clothes. Hence she didn't intend to go. From the looks of Santiago, he seemed to be planning something. Raeleigh did not want to be deceived by him. "You can use the money in these cards and remember to take care of Raeleigh." Jephe
Xanthus was mystified for a bit, whereas Jepherson understood what Jazelle meant in an instant. Raeleigh was also aware that her parents were protecting her. Raeleigh pretended to bow her head. "I should explain it to you." "You don't need to explain. We merely want to know if you and my son have broken up." Jazelle had practiced at home many times. Therefore, the way she feigned disapproval was quite realistic. Raeleigh almost laughed, but she still shamed indignation and shot a glance at Jazelle. Jazelle felt good as she was very proud of her pretense. Lamar said, "Xanthus, let's go." Xanthus glanced at Raeleigh as he took over the luggage from his father and explained, "Raeleigh and I have broken up. It was my fault. I've fallen for someone else." "What?" Being shocked, Jazelle gaped at her son. "Is it true?" Xanthus reluctantly nodded. "Yes." "What? So, you were two-timing?" Jazelle didn't take Xanthus's side at all. She prioritized h
By the time Santiago returned, Xanthus had put away the luggage. Xanthus took over the groceries and went into the kitchen to help Jepherson with the cooking. Santiago knew nothing about cooking. He sat beside Lamar. He did not try to be well-mannered as he turned on the TV and crossed his legs while watching it. He also drank water, just like Lamar. On the way to the washroom, Jazelle saw Santiago crossing his leg. She couldn't help being a busybody. "Everyone is busy cooking. It's okay if you can't cook, but you should at least help them. And why are you sitting there cross-legged?" Only then did Santiago place his leg down. "The kitchen is too small for the three of us." Jazelle cast a look at the kitchen. "I agree." Turning around, Jazelle went back to Raeleigh's room. She and Raeleigh continued to lie down and have their conversation. Raeleigh was not troubled.The fact that her mother had come back suggested that the situation was not too
When Raeleigh woke up, she heard that there were people who had arrived. However, they were not going to stay here. Furthermore, when she woke up in the middle of the night, Jepherson went out to answer a call, so she knew he went to see his parents. Due to the current situation, it was not suitable for her to meet his parents. Thus, she didn't follow him. In the morning, she came out from her room, intending to prepare breakfast. Just as she entered the kitchen, she saw Jazelle, who was busying herself in her kitchen. Raeleigh stood by the kitchen door, not knowing what to say. Before this, she had envisioned her mother preparing breakfast for her in a small house. She didn't expect that such a scene would come true one day. Jazelle turned around to take a look at her daughter. "Sweetheart, did you sleep well last night?" "Yes, Mom. Didn't you say you wanted to sleep in and told me not to wake you?" Raeleigh remembered it clearly. Jazelle let out a
After Raeleigh and the others left, Hansen said right away, "We are here to apologize for what had happened in the past." Lamar's expression darkened slightly, but he did not lose his temper. He simply stared at Hansen, who gave Jenna a look. Following that, Jenna stood up in an instant and went to the kitchen to pour some tea for Lamar and Jazelle. "I have never capitulated in my lifetime, except for the sake of my wife. Now, I want to apologize to you on behalf of my parents." Hansen held the cup of tea and handed it to Lamar, who just stared back at him. There was a starlike sparkle in Lamar's eyes. He did not accept it, nor did he reject it. Consequently, Hansen held the cup of tea in air for a long time while waiting for Lamar to receive it. However, Lamar did not do so. "It was your mother who stole Raeleigh away back then. I'm afraid that I can't accept it. Other matters are negotiable, but for this one, I'm sorry." You are parents too. You understa
"You've misunderstood. My mother-in-law isn't a bad person. She's not the sort of person who will harm others. There must be a reason for her to take Raeleigh away. It should be related to this batch of antiques you mentioned. We'll find a way to look into it. Just give us some time. As for the two children, I think it's better to wait a little longer. Raeleigh is kind. Despite Jerry's uncaring exterior, he is true-hearted toward Raeleigh. You lost your daughter and had been looking for her for many years. However, you managed to find her at last. On the contrary, something had happened to me in the past. I could have had a daughter, but when I was going to give birth, I fell from height and lost my child. Back then, Jerry was only five years old. He thought that the baby was born and had survived. He had been seeking this child ever since he grew up. You might not believe me, but you can investigate it. In the past few years, he had gone to many places to search for
"Regarding Raeleigh's matter, they are pretty passive. They can't just force them apart since Raeleigh and Jerry are already together. They have spent so many years searching for her. They wouldn't turn their daughter down at this moment. Jerry did things in such a swift manner that they didn't see it coming. Therefore, they wouldn't approve Raeleigh's marriage when we visited them this time. They have yet to hold their wedding and are not in a hurry to, so let's put this aside." No one had ever been able to change Hansen's decision, including Jenna. Furthermore, Jenna had always been supportive to him. The couple walked for a bit and arrived at Jacky's house, who had already bought breakfast. There were some pastries and toast. Jenna praised him before the three of them sat down to have breakfast together. After that, Jenna felt drowsy and went to catch some sleep at nine o'clock, intending to have lunch with Lamar and Jazelle at noon. ...... Concur
