Raeleigh stood outside and surveyed her house. "Three or five people will be enough to live in this house. I planned to wait until I'm forty and come here to live the picture perfect life. Who knew the world could be so unpredictable. What a pity!" The mute looked at her as she expressed her thoughts. Raeleigh then took out the key that Jacky had given her and opened the door into the room As they walked inside, Raeleigh searched the wall with one hand and flipped the light switch on. Raeleigh raised her head and scanned her surroundings. She saw him staring at her with deep affection in his eyes. After a long while, Raeleigh laughed, "Do I have a pretty and charming face?" He didn't reply. He simply turned his face away. Seeing as he had become shy, Raeleigh diverted to another topic about checking the inner parts of the house, which seemed to be relatively clean as well. "Previously I'd thought that going up and down the stairs was inconvenient, which wa
Trevor took a few steps forward. "It's because I was too mindful of you that you turned out like this. You should practice restraint. No matter how bad Raeleigh is as a person, she's miserable enough as it is. How can you treat her like that? She's the one who has given Jerry a child, so which part of her now that you can't stand?" The human heart was still made of flesh and blood. No matter how good-tempered and tolerant they were, they would be worn down the moment they met Marissa. Trevor couldn't imagine that the obedient and sensible young Marissa from before, would become like this now. To even begin to envy a young girl. Back when she was still young , Trevor had assumed that any woman would have a little bit of a temper when they're faced with something incomprehensible, but look at what happened now. This was not just her being bad-tempered. The older they got, the more prominent the flaws they had since young would be. This was especi
"Okay, I understand. When I come back, uncle will buy you both a plane and a tank, okay?" "Mm." Heitor hung up the phone and Cedric asked, "Is he buying or not?" "Mm." Heitor nodded. Cedric immediately grinned and ran off to play. Heitor tagged along behind him. Zorion didn't know what conclusion his parents would come to over the matter of apologies, but he knew that this time it wouldn't be handled that easily. It was still a question of who should apologize to who. No matter how you looked at it, this wasn't something that could be forgotten just like that. ...... Raeleigh woke up in the morning and went downstairs. She was ready to put out a little and cook some oats to eat. However, just like the previous day, the dishes had already been prepared. There was bacon, avocado toast, and two sunny-side up eggs for breakfast, together with cereal. As the table had been set, Raeleigh subconsciously looked around just as th
The women baked their apple pies and ate some of it that afternoon. The two men clearly didn't like to eat it, but they didn't say a word and reluctantly had some. The rest were left for Deanna, lest she would say there wasn't enough to eat. After that, all of them headed over to Deanna's. On their way there, Raeleigh asked Rosie, "Is it okay for you not to go to school?" "Actually, I'm almost done with my semester. There's nothing else that I need to go there for." Rossie's results were even better than Deanna's. After Deanna left school, she could secure her victory with one less strong contender. Therefore, she wasn't in a hurry to go back. Even if she was, she could not leave Raeleigh alone. Not to mention that she had caused some trouble. Both of the women chatted along the way and soon Marissa was brought up. "I really didn't know that there is such an old hag in the Richards family. She's like a shrew in the marketplace. How did Je
At the Moore Family. "Still no news?" "No." Flynt's face darkened. "What does this mean?" "They refuse to say. Our people have been suspended one after another for the past two days. They probably received some inside information." "Where is Jacky?" "He's at Waverly Village, where Raeleigh is." Flynt's hands clenched into fists. "Jepherson, if you want to provoke me, it won't be that easy. Announce immediately that our Moore family will suppress these people and punish them severely. No matter who they are, if they dare to sell drugs, they will not be tolerated." "But they're looking into us as well, what should we do?" "Even if they found something, there's no issue. Just find these two people and bring their child here." Flynt put a photo onto the table. The other individual looked down, picked up the photo, then put it away and turned to start his search. Two days later. Raeleigh had just gotten up when th
Whalen family in the Capital City. "Sir, someone from the government is at the door." Rayan was watching over his two grandchildren when a servant came to tell him about their guests. Rayan raised his head and inquired, "Someone from the government is here?" "Yes, and they're from the military." The servant was also perplexed. This was the first time that the military would come to their doorstep. "What did they say?" "They said they wanted to see you." Rayan flicked a glance at the two children and then looked at his beloved wife. "Take the children upstairs and don't let them come down." "What about you? What's going on? Is it because when you were outside, you..." Hannah got a little worried when she heard that it was the military. "Go, don't let the children out." Rayan reiterated. He was not worried about himself, but he was worried about the two children. In this world, no one could predict what would happen.
Raeleigh waited until the military had left, and then looked at the mute whose gaze was fixed on the vehicle that drove off. "Take the child to the hospital first." Colston heeded Raeleigh's advice and carried Essie towards the hospital at a run, Louisa hurried along behind him. Raeleigh followed after them at a much slower pace. Jacky had stood outside and watched. He was rather surprised when he didn't see Jepherson's car. After the doctor's examination, it was confirmed that the child lacked a pinkie finger. Raeleigh also saw it with her own eyes. Nevertheless, the child should no longer be in pain. Flynt seemed afraid of the child's tears, hence had ordered someone in advance to deal with the injury, but that was it. The little child didn't cry throughout the ordeal, yet Colston and Louisa shed tears of sadness in her stead, especially Louisa who could cry at the drop of a hat. Raeleigh stood outside the ward. She didn't go in but just obse
Jepherson's car arrived at the hotel. He got down from the car and went upstairs to take a bath. He then changed into another set of clothes. Soon after, someone had already rushed upstairs to trim his hair and nails. After he had cleaned himself up, Jepherson wore a grey outfit and went downstairs. He pulled open the car door and entered with a bent of his waist. Once inside, he ordered Stuart, "Inform Jared, get ready to intercept Raeleigh." "To protect, or to follow?" "To protect at a close proximity, not even a single step away from her." Jepherson gazed outside the window. He leaned against the side of the car interior with an expressionless look on his face. When the car passed the roundabout, Jepherson asked, "Have you already made an appointment with the people from the Green House?" "I didn't manage to get it. Do we need to contact Lenold? He might have a way." "No need." The car quickly arrived at the Green House prison ar
