Chapter 1743
Jared walked to the car and looked inside. Raeleigh happened to open her eyes and saw him looking inside.
Raeleigh opened the door and got out from the car while Jared took a step back. Seeing her get out of the car, he turned around and went back to his place.
Xanthus went to fetch a blanket and covered Raeleigh with it when he saw her getting out of the car. After that, he brought her inside.
"What are you looking at?" Xanthus asked her as she turned her head to look at Jared, who had already gone back. Raeleigh cracked a smile in amusement. "Nothing."
Returning to the house, Raeleigh did not stay downstairs any longer. She immediately went upstairs to visit Novalie, who had not been out for a long time. There were servants employed to take care of her upstairs. Novalie had told Raeleigh not to visit her unless she had something important. She also said that every time Raeleigh visited her, it would make her miss Raeleigh even more. Therefore Raeleigh might as well avoid visiting her.
In fact, it didn't matter whether Raeleigh visited her.
Raeleigh was in a good mood that day. She entered Novalie's room and chatted with her for a little bit. It was only after that that she left and went back to her room.
When Raeleigh looked out of her room at night, there was a fleeting flash in the car downstairs. It disappeared immediately.
Raeleigh knew that Jared was inside the car. After Jepherson left, Jared stayed in the car almost every day. It was not for a little while, but for the whole night.NôvelDrama.Org content.
He seemed to be indifferent and didn't care about her, but over the past few nights, since Crevor had showed up, he had been guarding her. This was because he was afraid that something bad would happen to her.
Even Jared had an undisclosed side in his character. Raeleigh was aware that if it had not been for her, nothing would have happened to Santiago back then. This was the reason Jared had always refused to forgive her.
Actually, Raeleigh didn't want to forgive herself either.
After standing there for a little while, Raeleigh turned around and rested for the night. In the next morning, Raeleigh came out of the house and Xanthus intended to follow her. Raeleigh said, "Don't follow me. You keep taking me as a child, like I'm about to be lost at any time. I've said that I'll be fine. The hospital would be very busy. Why don't you go back? If anything happens to me, you won't be able to save me even if you're here and I would worry that something may happen to you."
"I won't disturb you. I can be your driver."
Xanthus couldn't leave Raeleigh alone. He did not trust Jared, who seemed to be undependable in his eyes.
"Go to the hospital, or I won't go out."
The brother and sister argued outside for a bit. In the end, Xanthus gave in and agreed to go to the hospital.
After Raeleigh left, he intended to follow her. Raeleigh asked the chauffeur to stop the car, flagged down Jared's car and got into it.
"Get rid of my brother."
Raeleigh got into the back seat without hesitation. Jared took a quick look behind and drove fast. As a result, Xanthus could not catch up with them.
Raeleigh sat stably in the back. It didn't take long before they lost sight of Xanthus's car, hence Jared slowed down the car.
Sitting behind, Raeleigh told Jared, "There aren't many affairs in the company today. Let's take a ride around here."
Jared shot a glance at Raeleigh through the rearview mirror, as if he did not believe that such words would come out of Raeleigh's mouth. He had a moment of bewilderment, but he still drove Raeleigh around the city.
At noon, Raeleigh got out of the car and went to the restaurant to have lunch. Afterward, she continued to take a ride in Jared's car.
Raeleigh's assistant called her, asking where she was. Raeleigh darted a glance at Jared and told her, "I'm shopping in a mall, which is located near Fifth Avenue."
Hanging up, Raeleigh's eyes landed on Jared, who then parked the car at the entrance of the mall Fifth Avenue. The two of them waited outside the mall.
Within 20 minutes, it could be seen that several cars were parked nearby the mall. People in various colors of outfits emerged from those cars, including some women.
Seeing them enter the mall, Raeleigh opened the car door and got out.
Jared did the same. Raeleigh made her way into the mall, followed by Jared.
Not long after that, Raeleigh arrived at the mall. Raeleigh knew that those people were stalking her because she had seen them when they came out from their cars.
"Get a cart."
Raeleigh told Jared to do so and Jared went to get it. They got to the first floor and started shopping and buying some insignificant items. It was almost night by the time they came out.
Raeleigh paid the bill whereas Jared carried the purchased items behind her. Exiting the mall, Raeleigh waited for Jared to place the things in the trunk before they opened the door and got into the car together.
Sitting into the car, Jared drove back to the manor.
Raeleigh asked Jared to go into the house and the two of them then went into Raeleigh's room. They couldn't look outside from upstairs. After all, they were so far away. It turned out that Raeleigh had prepared for it.
She walked to the bathroom, took a black remote control, opened the storage cabinet on the wall of the bathroom and removed the towels from inside. The inner space of the cabinet looked very ordinary, but when Raeleigh pulled out the wooden board inside, there was a monitor behind it.
Raeleigh pressed a button on the remote control, and a few surveillance videos soon appeared.
Raeleigh stood aside and watched the people shown on the monitor. After waiting for a short time, they left one by one.
"You've long since known that your assistant is an imposter?" Jared didn't realize it, and little did he expect that Raeleigh would notice it.
"I only realized that something was wrong yesterday. When my brother came to look for me, her expression was a little off and she seemed to be bothered by the fact that there was someone by my side."
Jared did not say anything. As the monitor was turned off, he asked Raeleigh, "What are you going to do next?"
"Since we know that there is something wrong with her, we have to replace her immediately. Call Jepherson and ask him if she is sent by him."
"I'm certain that she isn't arranged by him."
"Since she isn't Jepherson's subordinate and she doesn't look like Jacky's either, I'll find a reliable person to replace her."
Raeleigh turned around, walked out of the bathroom and said, "It is getting more and more uncertain. You can live next door from now on."
Jared leaned against the wall. "So, you're afraid of death?"
Raeleigh wore a grin. "Don't tell me that you aren't?"
Jared did not answer. He turned and went outside.
After he left, Raeleigh called her assistant. "That's enough."
The assistant heaved a sigh of relief. Although she had no idea what was going on, she was a little fretful. What if she could not come back in the future? It was a well-paying job.
Not able to sleep, she called Raeleigh back and Raeleigh picked up the call. "Can't sleep?"
"I can't fall asleep. Miss Anson, are you lying to me?"
"Do I look like a liar?"
"No."
"Since I don't look like it, then do it. When you succeed, I will give you a reward."
"Oh."
Only the did the assistant feel relieved. It was not that she was suspicious, but it was all too sudden.
She didn't even know why she was transferred to the hospital. How could she not worry?
Finding a satisfactory job in a foreign country was not a walk in the park. Naturally, she felt disinclined to give up so easily.
Fortunately, she was offered another job that was double the salary. How wonderful!
