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
The sky had already grown dark as Austin turned and went down the watchtower, escorted by the people behind him back into the prison. ...... When Jepherson arrived at the hotel's entrance, he opened his eyes and got out of the car. He then looked at Stuart and said, "Today is your wedding day. I will attend the ceremony and leave later that afternoon. You have to take care of things here the day after your marriage." "Understood, Mr. Jepherson." "Good." Jepherson turned to head in while Stuart made preparations for his big day. Raeleigh disembarked from the plane. No sooner had she walked out the airplane's door, she caught sight of Jared who had stood in wait at the airport. Raeleigh paused then scanned the surrounding area. Jared was dressed in black outfit over a light-colored shirt. The moment he saw Raeleigh, he took his hands out of his pockets and strode over towards her. Then when he was in front of her, he bent down and took the luggag
The date for Raeleigh's second operation was soon set. Xanthus was so busy he didn't even lift his head, while Raeleigh followed Xanthus around every day as he would perform all kinds of examinations in preparation for the surgery. As part of that preparation, Raeleigh would jog with Xanthus every morning. And every time they had their morning jog, Jared would follow after them. Soon, Raeleigh subsequently felt curious about Cynthia. "Is Cynthia not around now?" Raeleigh asked this in a cautious tone. Xanthus replied, "She said that she likes Jared and that the bond between us can only be that of friendship. I'm in pain, but I'll survive. Love is like this. Only when you feel pain, will you understand what love is." Xanthus jogged ahead, while Raeleigh kept pace behind him. Since Xanthus was unwilling to continue the topic, Raeleigh did not ask any further. The next day, Raeleigh went to Xanthus's hospital and was at the entrance when she recei
Even with the sudden addition to the house, Raeleigh had never felt unaccustomed to it. She was worried that the mute would sneak about the house and be discovered. Aside from that, Raeleigh called Jacky and asked him to prepare a passport for him. Then for the next few days, Raeleigh took the mute for a tour around the manor. She told him that her parents did not like for there to be too many people, hence when she had the time, she would take him to the garden at the back of the manor. As a result, during an evening when he had wandered into the back garden by himself, someone had caught sight of him. When Raeleigh heard about it, she had inquired into his reason for being there, but he didn't answer her. "This place is too big. If you solely rely on your own two feet to get around, you may not be able to reach from one end to the other even within half a month. If that's the case, it'll be best for you to do something to occupy yourself." Raeleigh
Raeleigh knew Callis was worried about her, so she made no comments about his behavior. For Raeleigh, Callis needed someone to take care of him, but he had his way of thinking. Plus this mindset of his had already taken shape, and it would be difficult to change it. As she gazed at Callis's clean yet mature countenance, Raeleigh closed her eyes and fell asleep. It grew quiet inside the ward. Xanthus stared at Callis's back and frowned slightly. "Your back reminds me of a certain someone." Callis just sat there as if he hadn't heard a thing. He did not turn at his remark, and Xanthus was also tired. The problem wasn't due to age but mental stress. He would have to take a long break for now. Otherwise, he would really throw himself off a cliff. And he could stay and take care of Raeleigh in the meantime as well. Xanthus made himself comfortable and began to doze off. The ward was now completely quiet. Callis's eyes stayed on Raeleigh, and for the
