Chapter 1612
Raeleigh was sitting in her quarter's living room in Green Jade Garden. She requested it so that she could monitor the surveillance there. At this moment, everyone was sitting in the living room with her, waiting for her explanation. However, half an hour later, Raeleigh fell asleep on the sofa, her red coat draped on her.
When Jepherson went to her, he was suddenly speechless. There were quite a few people in the living room, and all of them had her best interest at heart, but he suddenly thought they were all selfish, and they all wanted to hurt her.
She had indeed gone out an entire day, but as for why she didn't tell anyone? They all knew the reason.
"Raeleigh is tired; we should let her rest. I'm going back to my room too." Jepherson was the first to walk away; he left just like that, no explanations, nor did he want to talk.
Xanthus nudged his sister a couple of times for her to finally wake up on the third. With that, she walked to her bed and tucked herself in before removing her glasses.
No matter how Raeleigh didn't want to explain anything.
Xanthus stood rooted to the spot, in a dilemma. He wanted to speak up a couple of times but swallowed his words in the end.
After a nap, Raeleigh woke up and couldn't fall back asleep. By then, Xanthus had already left the room. She took out her medical report, scanned through it before shredding it, and flushing it down the toilet.
Everyone else also had a sleepless night that night. Jepherson was convinced that there had to be a cause behind Raeleigh's illness. Overnight, he covered up everything about Raeleigh inside andContent held by NôvelDrama.Org.
out of Capital City; no one could find anything about her even online.
Just like that, the person named Raeleigh Anson vanished as if she had never existed. Since then, no stranger called her, and everything about her was gone in Capital City. When she woke up in the morning, she found that she couldn’t find anything about her online anymore.
Raeleigh knew who was behind it, but she was still unruffled.
After getting up, she checked on Santiago; she even brought a pair of scissors with her to trim his hair.
Louisa said, "I am also a doctor. Why don't I give you a quick check-up? Just a quick pulse check to make sure everything is alright. If I do find something wrong, I suggest you have it treated as soon as possible. I'm a mother-to-be just like you, so I understand your worries, but are you certain there won't be complications if you don't get yourself checked?"
Raeleigh remained silent. Even a person as stubborn as Louisa could not do anything to persuade her.
After breakfast, Jenna came to see Raeleigh. Jenna, too, tried to persuade Raeleigh to go for a check-up, but Raeleigh just adjusted her glasses and turned a deaf ear.
After Jenna went back, she complained to Hansen, "I've never seen such a stubborn person in my life. I thought I'd seen it all, but Raeleigh is on a different level; she won't listen at all."
Hansen fixed his gaze at the document in his hand and said, "She's not stubborn; she's just using her way to fight for her baby's chance to be born."
"But this is still no reason for her to take her life lightly."
"What do you suggest then? Force her to take out the baby?"
Hansen's words sounded unforgiving, but it got Jenna quiet.
The Richards family already had a lot on their plate, and now Raeleigh was sick as well. Jenna really wondered whether her family had brought misery to Raeleigh.
Raeleigh was good at taking care of herself. For some reason, in the days, she would go out and take a stroll in the garden after checking on Santiago, looking like someone who had just learned to enjoy life.
However, for some reason, everyone felt a little uncomfortable when they saw how calm Raeleigh was.
Nothing about Raeleigh changed. Nearly everyone knew how the public talked about her; even when her information was gone online, anyone who knew still knew. Even if Jepherson managed to cover everything up, he wouldn't be able to stop people from talking.
All the servants in the Richards family felt sorry for Raeleigh. Not only was she slandered by the public, but she was also sick. All she could do now was sit and live. Surgery was not an option either as she was pregnant...
One misery after another, everyone pitied her.
However, Raeleigh did not feel sorry for herself because she felt that obstacles were part of life.
It wouldn't be life if it were smooth sailing. She never complained about how tough her life was because she knew some people had it worse than her.
Children learned to walk by learning to fall, let alone adults trying to survive in a society.
Raeleigh's illness suddenly changed her outlook on life. If it were the old Raeleigh, she would've thought that the world was unfair and that everyone was better off than her.
However, she was a different person now. She came to realize that even money couldn't cure an incurable sickness; everyone would end up dead in the end.
Some things could have a do-over, but not when it came to a person's life.
A person would lose everything once they were dead.
What about her?
Yes, she was sick, but she didn't think she was piteous.
She felt that she would be able to get through this. Even if she did die, at least she still had a baby to carry on her legacy.
No one knew what was going on in Raeleigh's mind. Some would occasionally catch her giggling to herself.
Some say that getting pregnant would give you the baby brain. Was it valid for Raeleigh too?
Jepherson spent the entire day resting at home that day. Although he knew Raeleigh was out in the garden, he didn't go out to her.
Raeleigh heard footsteps behind her and turned around to see it was Jepherson. She was still indifferent when she saw him, and for some reason, she had a sudden feeling that they had gotten much older because of recent events. However, doing quick math with her fingers, she was only twenty while he was only twenty-five.
But it was exactly that they had been through so much at that age that they had foregone their youth.
People at their age were still rather insensible and ignorant about the world. However, they were the opposite.
Raeleigh thought she was very immature in the past and did not know how to enjoy life at all.
After standing there for a while, Raeleigh smiled at Jepherson. However, it was that smile that shattered him into pieces.
Raeleigh then said, "I really want to keep this baby, but everyone wants me to get rid of it. What about you? Are you with everyone else?"
Jepherson was silent for a long time before he finally asked, "Are you doing it for Austin?"
Raeleigh did not want to continue the conversation, so she turned and looked around. Suddenly missing Callis, she walked in the direction of the front gates as she called him. Coincidentally, Jepherson's phone rang.
However, Raeleigh did not look back as it wasn't Callis's ringtone.
