"Scarlette, can you guide me to play this game?" Raeleigh wanted to give it a shot. She told Scarlette about her interest to join on the spot and Scarlette quickly agreed to it. Raeleigh focused on learning about the game. Once she joined the game, she tried to learn the basics of it. She was at the beginner level, and she could easily level up to seventy or eighty levels even if she was away from the keyboard. Raeleigh created a username for her character. It wasn't as dramatic as Scarlette's character name as Raeleigh just casually thought about it. It sounded right to her ears. Little Raeleigh! "This name doesn't sound formidable at all. You had to think about it. What if one day you become a master, but you still have this as your username. It does not sound like you're mighty at all." Scarlette reminded her, as she thought it was not a good name. Raeleigh glanced at her and replied, "It doesn't matter what my username is. I don't want to be a master e
Raeleigh and Scarlette stopped at the entrance. Their eyes were fixed on the dean, who was around sixty years old. He was standing up from his seat. Raeleigh bowed towards the dean politely and said, "Hello." "Hello, are you Raeleigh?" the dean asked in a formal way. Raeleigh nodded and replied, "Yes, I am." "Hello, sir. My name is Scarlette, and I am a new student here," Scarlette said as she stood beside Raeleigh. Then, the dean greeted Scarlette back. "What's the matter?" the dean asked. Raeleigh hesitated and then replied, "I'm here to hand in my scholarship application form." Raeleigh approached the dean to face him and handed it to him with both her hands. She was oddly calm. The dean grabbed the form and took a glance at it. Then, he sat down in his chair and took out his personal stamp and the university's stamp. He stamped her application form and then handed it to Jepherson, who had yet to turn around. Then, Jepherson finally turned a
After being in the car for some time, Jepherson moved his hand from his thighs and reached towards Raeleigh. Raeleigh had her head lowered as she watched him place his hand onto hers. He held her hand gently, with his thumb on the inside of her palm while the other fingers held her palm. Raeleigh didn't move. She knew that she wouldn't be able to escape despite what Jepherson wanted to do to her that time. It was the second time meeting him and she didn't get the feeling that he was going to do anything s*xual towards her. On the contrary, Jepherson seemed to be trying to show her that he was being considerate towards her. But why was he doing that? Raeleigh had no idea. After holding her hand, Jepherson turned his face to look at her. He had a light smile on his face. "Was it interesting?" Jepherson whispered as his body moved towards her. Raeleigh didn't avoid him but she just stared at him. Jepherson couldn't get a reaction out of Raeleigh and his expression
After leaving the concert hall, Raeleigh became incredibly silent. She wasn't sure why Jepherson had brought her here and even though she had never been to a place like this, she knew that she wouldn't have been allowed into the concert with the attire she was wearing. If it weren't for Jepherson, she wouldn't have been allowed to go in at all. The concert had yet to end, and they could've left slightly later, but it would have been crowded at the end of the show. Raeleigh was aware that Jepherson didn't want to attract any unnecessary attention, therefore they left the concert early. The two of them walked out of the elevator as Stuart walked in front of them. Jepherson got into the car after Raeleigh. The concert hall's supervisor and manager watched them leave as they stood outside Jepherson's car. On the way back, Raeleigh closed her eyes without thinking as she leaned against the car seat. She usually went to bed at ten o'clock at night and due to spending
Marissa felt furious about what happened. She tried to cool herself down with the exquisite fan in her hand but to no avail. Then, she pulled out her phone and called her daughter-in-law. However, her son picked up the call instead. "Mom, how come you're calling so early in the morning? What's wrong?" Hansen slept late the night before. Although he had taken good care of himself, despite being middle-aged, he was as fit as a young man. He still had urges in bed as usual. Hansen had just woken up from his sleep when he picked up the call and it was Marissa's call that woke him up. He was worried that the sound would wake Jenna up, so he quickly picked up the phone instead. Marissa was stunned, and she pulled a long face. "What do you mean? Are you complaining about the fact that I'm calling you?" "How could that be? I asked you that because I just thought that it must be an important matter for you to call at this hour. Who angered you? Where's Jepherson? I
"What's wrong? Why aren't you saying anything? What happened between you and that man last night?" Scarlette was still speaking in a straightforward manner. Raeleigh looked up at her and replied indifferently, "We went to a classical concert and I fell asleep on the way back. We slept at the entrance of the school and only woke up this morning." She wasn't acting shy or as if she had something to hide like other girls would. "How did you sleep at the school entrance?" Scarlette was surprised as she imagined Raeleigh and Jepherson lying on the ground together at the school entrance. "I slept in the car outside the school entrance. Jepherson didn't wake me up." Raeleigh couldn't understand why Jepherson made her go out with him but didn't end up doing anything to her. Everything was oddly normal. "It seems like he's good to you." Scarlette recalled her first time seeing Jepherson when she was a kid. Although the encounter was fine, Jepherson had always been cold and qui
In the Richards Group's Ink Garden in Capital City. "Jerry, do you hear what I'm saying?" Marissa was slightly impatient. She had been questioning Jepherson, and he hadn't replied to her a single word about what happened between him and the girl. Jepherson was looking at his phone. He was looking at Raeleigh's design drawing, which was the last photo sent to him. His eyes and soul were completely blown away by it. Although he could only see part of the design, it was enough for him to tell that he had found a rare treasure. Jepherson put his phone away and looked towards Marissa with a smile, "Grandma, do you want me to start my own family?" "Of course. I like Deanna a lot. Don't you like her too? Our families are perfect for each other, and it is one of my wishes. Do you know that Deanna hasn't been over for a few days? Has there been a conflict between the two of you?" Marissa asked, grabbing Jepherson's hand. She was afraid that he was going to run away like
After investigating Raeleigh's identity, Marissa made up her mind. If there was such a person to help with the situation and ensure Deanna's safety, then it was considered good news. At the very least, Deanna's safety was guaranteed. On the other hand, they would be able to tell who was trying to sabotage the matter. As for Rayan, Marissa could only try to provide them an explanation. She believed that everything was going to be resolved. Rayan was a smart man. Moreover, Hannah and Jenna were best friends. They would agree that this was good news too. Marissa made up her mind. She called the dean of Elkton University to make sure the school took good care of Raeleigh. Since the Richards family was making use of Raeleigh, they should at least give her something back in return. After attending the early morning classes, Scarlette pulled Raeleigh to one side. As they were walking, Scarlette told her that the Richards Group was planning to hold a competi
