Raeleigh stayed in A city for two days. After the dust settled, she went back with Jepherson. When they arrived at Richards Group, Jepherson got out of the car and brought Raeleigh inside. It wasn't until she had gone inside that she found out Stella had moved in. Raeleigh couldn't help but be impressed. Despite all that had happened, Stella had still moved in. It seemed that Raeleigh had some difficult times ahead. Thinking of Stella, Raeleigh recalled what had happened to Xanthus. Drug poisoning was no small matter. She turned around and went inside, leaving Jepherson behind. She didn't rest after entering the room even though she did say she was tired and sleepy. After all, she had been busy over the past couple of days. But her drowsiness faded at the thought of living under the same roof as Stella. She packed her belongings, took her suitcase and got ready to leave. When she reached the door, Jepherson happened to arrive at the door
Raeleigh walked down the street. It wasn't that she had been traumatized, she just felt a little discouraged. She didn't know what other women would do when they encountered such a situation, but she couldn't bring herself to compete with someone else for a man. She only wanted to live an ordinary life, even if it would be as tough as before. She dragged her suitcase as she walked. Santiago had been following her, and she didn't even notice that she had reached her home. Santiago stopped and looked at Raeleigh, who was walking forward in a daze. After a while, she stopped and turned around to find that she had already walked past her house. Raeleigh dragged her suitcase all the way back while Santiago fixed his gaze on her. When she stopped in front of him, he said, "I thought you were going to fly?" Raeleigh didn't even look at him. She had no energy to argue with him. Raeleigh walked into the house and gathered her energy. She shouted, "Mom, I'm back."
Raeleigh didn't want to answer, so Scarlette stopped asking in front of everyone. When she stayed at Raeleigh's that night, she asked Raeleigh what had happened that day. At first, Raeleigh just laid there without saying anything. No matter how much Scarlette asked her about it, she refused to say anything. Later, she turned around, put her arms around Scarlette and said from behind her, "If it were you, could you tolerate Hadrian bringing another woman and letting her live under the same roof as you, even if he doesn't really love her?" Scarlette was baffled for a second. She knew that there must be something going on. Sure enough, Mr. Jepherson was at it again! Scarlette held Raeleigh's hand. "Raeleigh, did you tell Mr. Jepherson that you can't live with that b*tch?" "I did but it didn't change anything." "Mr. Jepherson is so selfish." Scarlette couldn't stand it anymore. If it were Hadrian, she would have gone over and slapped him, chopped him into piec
The next day, Scarlette's wedding started splendidly. She and Hadrian came out from their residence and headed for Waverly Village. They had bought a house there, and before going there, they had to go to the local church for their ceremony to exchange their marriage vows. The whole wedding process seemed to be quite simple, but was also solemn. They had invited all the villagers. Lamar and Jazelle were the groom's witnesses whereas the bride's wedding witnesses were Hansen and Jenna. It was a great surprise to see that even Stuart attended the wedding. Scarlette was so thrilled that she drank a lot at the end of the wedding ceremony. Hadrian tried to stop her several times, but to no avail He had no choice but to carry away forcefully. After they left, two others came to the door. Jepherson, Zorion and the others were eating, and so were Hansen and Rayan. They put their enmity aside for the time being. Even though Rayan's daughter was with Jacky, it
Zorion's fury suddenly melted away as he gazed at Rossie. "Where are you going to live then?" "It's a big village. I can live anywhere. You gave me so much money that I can afford to own half a street here. I've made up my mind. I wanted to study abroad, but I think I can do it in the country too. If possible, I will study domestically so that I won't get kidnapped and cause you trouble. Anyhow, everything is only temporary. My current concern is Logan. I'll be relieved if he is able to stand again." Rossie had no choice but to mention Logan. Zorion's expression instantly changed. "He brought this upon himself. It has nothing to do with us, so don't take care of him. I won't let you go." "It's not about you letting me or not. When you go back, help me ask about Elkton University. I want to study there, but there might be some complications as I've just returned from abroad. I think I'd have to go through the transfer procedure at least. Try to inquire about it f
Rossie removed Deanna's arm from hers. "Didn't you come to visit the bride? If there's anything I need, I'll reach out. You two go ahead." After that, Rossie turned and left, ignoring Deanna. With Jacky taking care of Deanna, Rossie felt no need to stay with Deanna. At the mention of the bride, Deanna turned to look for Scarlette at once. By the time she realized she had been duped, Rossie had disappeared from sight. She had an urge to look for Rossie, but at the thought of having many chances to meet her again later, she gave up trying to look for her. "Jacky, get someone to protect Rossie. She's my sister-in-law. We can't afford to have anything happening to her," Deanna said as she dragged Jacky to search for Scarlette. Jacky answered cheerfully, "Alright." "Good." Deanna and Jacky then came in from the outside. Sitting where she was, Raeleigh looked at them silently. She was Scarlette's bridesmaid that day. Although the wedding was unique, she an
At the Whalen family house. "Do you not care about Deanna anymore?" Hannah had been sobbing for more than two hours, and she was still crying. Rayan's heart ached for her. "Everyone, leave." Tried as he might, he failed to comfort Hannah and stop her from weeping while Zorion stood beside them. Hearing Rayan's order, all the servants left. After that, Rayan sat down next to Hannah. "She is my daughter. How could I not want her? But Jacky has stolen her away. I will not let this matter slide." Hannah looked up at him, her eyes red from the hours of crying. She couldn't believe this was the answer she had gotten. Upset, she threw a punch at Rayan's chest. "Are you trying to upset me to death?" Zorion furrowed his brows. "It isn't Deanna's fault. She has always been naive. I'm to blame." "You aren't any better either. Move out now. I never want to see you at my house ever again. I'm disowning you." Rayan's words stunned Hannah. She had never
"Zorion's parents don't like me, so I can't go back with him. I'm planning to stay here to take care of Logan, but I've got nowhere else to stay the night. I could have gone to Jacky's place, but it'll put Zorion in an awkward position. It's getting late. Can't I just stay the night here with you?" Raeleigh casted a glance at Xanthus, who had just come out of the kitchen. After some thinking, she said, "You can sleep with me in my room tonight. But you have to find somewhere else to rent tomorrow. Although Waverly Village is a village, its development is on par with Capital City, minus the hustle and bustle. Still, the accommodations here are pretty satisfactory." "Thank you." After that, Rossie followed Raeleigh into her room and stayed the night. After taking a shower at night, Raeleigh lent Rossie a set of pajamas she had not worn yet. Rossie got changed and went to lay on the bed. Just then, she brought something up. "I noticed that you're consta
