Chapter 1327 Forced
After a moment of silence in the ward, Santiago’s phone rang. He pried open his bleary eyes and accepted a call from Jacky telling him that he could not get to Deanna.
“I got you.”
Santiago and Jacky had already established a tacit understanding.
After receiving the call, Santiago hung up the phone. When he returned, he continued where his nap was left off. Jenna patted him and continued to sit with him. At that time, Jepherson stood up and said, “This matter has not gone unnoticed. I will visit Mr. Whalen later and see what he means by this. When Santiago’s awake, ask him to look into Flynt’s affairs.”
“That’s not the most prudent way to go about it,” Jenna suddenly said. Hansen and his son looked at her. Jenna glanced at her youngest son, who was still holding her. “Look, Santiago and Cynthia are good friends. I heard that Cynthia has a very good relationship with Flynt as brother and sister. Should we get someone else to do it?”
“Stuart has been injured. Who else should we send?” Hansen asked back. Jenna looked at Santiago. What a pity!
When a person reached a certain age, their minds would have been different from their previous age, especially women.
They would start to be all sentimental and sad.
Jenna would occasionally act like this in front of her husband, particularly displaying sorrow.
Hansen waved his hand. “Go.”
Jepherson glanced at his mother and then turned to leave.
After exiting the door, Jepherson looked around and went around to the door of another ward. He pushed open the door and walked in.
There was no one in the ward, not even Raeleigh. At that time, Raeleigh was making something at the door opposite her. She heard that the door opposite her was opened, which sounded like the door to her room. Then, she turned off the fire and took a look outside. It was quiet in the corridor. Raeleigh looked at the door of her room. After thinking for a while, she walked back and opened the door to have a look.
Raeleigh froze for a moment when she opened the door. Well, who else would it be if not Jepherson? She thought.
“Why are you here?” Raeleigh looked at other places in the room, and making sure that Santiago or anyone else were no where to be seen, fixed her eyes on Jepherson.
“Come here.” Jepherson raised his hand and patted the place beside him, signaling Raeleigh to enter. Raeleigh stood at the door, rooted to the ground, and watched.
“Come in.” Raeleigh refused to enter, after which Jepherson appeared impatient. The tenderness on his handsome face waned. Raeleigh remained at the same spot, pursing her lips. “I’m in the middle of cooking. If you want to take a breather, then by all means.”
Raeleigh said that because she picked up on the signs of exhaustion on Jepherson’s face.
Then, she closed the door and went back to the opposite side, intending to continue cooking her soup.
Raeleigh turned on the stove and boiled the soup in the pot. The door behind her opened quietly. Raeleigh’s survival instinct activated, she turned around and glanced at the door behind her. The door was closed as it was just then. Raeleigh turned around and went on cooking the soup.
At that time, the strong aroma had filled the whole ward. The ward was not very big, but it was definitely arranged specially for Raeleigh.
Raeleigh drank in the fragrance and thought it was about time. When she was about to turn off the fire, she sensed someone standing behind her. She felt that this person…
Raeleigh wanted to have a look subconsciously. Jepherson held her from the back. “Don’t move. I just want to have a hug.”
Raeleigh froze for a moment, and she then put down the spoon in her hand and continued to turn off the fire.
“How did you get in?” Raeleigh pulled a long face, not feeling happy at all.
Jepherson held Raeleigh’s body tightly in his arms. Regardless of Raeleigh’s struggle, he lowered his head, held Raeleigh’s ear in his mouth, and bit it gently. Raeleigh raised her hand to push it away. Jepherson held her hand tighter, forcing Raeleigh to raise her face and let her breathe against him.
Raeleigh’s height was much shorter than that of Jepherson, who just looked down at Raeleigh.
They beheld each other. Raeleigh knew what Jepherson was going to do and immediately whipped her face away.Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Raeleigh struggled hard. Jepherson turned around and took her to the door. Then, he locked the door, so that no one outside could get in.
“Jepher…”
Before Raeleigh could say anything, he immediately sealed her lips with his. His tongue parted open Raeleigh’s teeth, gaining deeper entrance into her mouth.
Her hands rushed up to push him away, but she was in a flurry because he did not even give her a chance to struggle. Jepherson held the kiss for a while before letting her go.
“Don’t move. My parents and the others are on the opposite side. Santiago’s here as well. It would be a joke if we caused a commotion.”
Raeleigh blushed. “Jepherson Richards, you’ve gone too far. We’re already done for but you still treat me like this. You still have the nerve to… Umm…”
Before Raeleigh could finish her words, Jepherson lowered his head to kiss her, much gentler that time. His hand was not rough anymore. She held his hand, trying to make him let go, but he didn’t. Instead, he put Raeleigh’s hand on his body.
Raeleigh felt that her hands were burning hot. She pressed them against Jepherson’s body but soon withdrew them.
The corners of Jepherson’s mouth curved up and his rough voice echoed in Raeleigh’s ears. “Your body is more honest than your words, huh?”
Raeleigh’s face turned redder as her hands flailed. She tried to push him away but she failed. With the binding arms on his body let go, Jepherson’s breathing became heavier.
He lowered his eyes and fixed them on Raeleigh, who had shrunk into a ball. He traced his fingers along her face and said, “Raeleigh…”
Raeleigh blushed and said shyly, “Jepherson, you… Mmm…”
Jepherson didn’t allow Raeleigh to speak. He stopped her from speaking. He didn’t want to listen to her unpleasant words then. His desire could be seen from his deep eyes.
“Hold me…”
Raeleigh was in a daze from being kissed. Her eyes were blurred. Somehow, she put her hands around Jepherson’s shoulders. After lingering for a while, Jepherson whispered in Raeleigh’s ear. Raeleigh looked at him slowly. She finally had a focus in her eyes and subconsciously moved away. Jepherson pulled Raeleigh back into his arms immediately, picked her up, and walked to the bed…
…
Raeleigh felt that she had an erotic dream and had spent half of the night with the devil. At that time, the devil was holding her while she rested.
Raeleigh tried to get up, but she was pulled back.
Behind him, Jepherson held Raeleigh tightly in her arms, breathing heavily. “I don’t like the brightness of the dawn. I haven’t enjoyed myself enough, but who’s counting?”
Raeleigh turned around and looked at the person who said that. If looks could kill, then he would be dead by now. “For all I care, you could stay in the darkness forever.”
“If my girl, Raeleigh, is with me, then why not?”
Then, he wrapped his arms around Raeleigh’s waist, kissed her shoulders and chest a few times, and reluctantly let go of her.
His gratified voice rang beside Raeleigh’s ears. “What a time to be alive!”
Raeleigh froze for a moment and did not budge for a long time. Then she said, “I am going to make soup. Can’t have my brother see this.”
Only then did Jepherson let go of her hand. Raeleigh got up to get dressed, and so did Jepherson. He walked to a small window on the side and opened it to let air into the ward. He nipped in and out of the bathroom. Looking at Raeleigh, who was still making soup, he said, “I’ll wait for you.”
After that, Jepherson left Raeleigh’s and Xanthus’s ward.
Raeleigh closed the door, showing a trace of melancholy in her eyes and continued to make soup.
