Chapter 1663 Running into Flynt
Chapter 1663 Running into Flynt
Returning to their room, Jepherson carried Raeleigh to the bathroom, intending to bathe her, but she
stirred and tugged at him as soon as they stepped into the bathroom. "I'm dead on my feet. Let me
rest. I'll fall apart if you don't."
Only then did Jepherson place her on the bed, change her, and watch as she took her rest.
Raeleigh laid still, casting an apathetic look at him. "See this? I can't be at ease whenever I'm with you,
just like now."
"Your health is too poor."
Jepherson wouldn't admit it even if he regretted it.
Raeleigh pressed on, "Are you going to release Cynthia or not?"
Gnashing his teeth, Jepherson grumbled, "Don't you have anything else to say to me other than this?"
Raeleigh remained still. "I can't think of anything else."
It wasn't that she couldn't but rather because she was on her last legs, she felt too enervated to talk to
him.
She did not even have the strength to speak.
She tugged at the covers and closed her eyes.
Seeing Raeleigh closing her eyes, Jepherson walked away. He removed the necktie and placed it
aside but headed back to stuff it into his pocket as though it would be stolen if he didn't do so.
Turning around, he stripped off his shirt and laid on the bed. He stayed up throughout the night.
The next day, Jepherson was still sleeping by the time Raeleigh woke up. She shifted and found
something clinging to her foot. Lifting the covers to check, Jepherson had tied their feet together with
the necktie.
Raeleigh landed her eyes on Jepherson, who was awakened by her tugging. "I need to go to the
washroom."
Jepherson moaned, still lying.
Raeleigh undid the tie and went to the bathroom. When she returned, Jepherson was still lying in bed,
unwilling to get up. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Raeleigh inquired if they were heading home that day, and Jepherson affirmed the flight the next
day. The couple stayed in bed all day.
Jepherson spent the night lying in bed in silence. He would occasionally steal glances at Raeleigh,
uneasy despite his drowsiness.
Raeleigh spent the night tossing and turning, as did Jepherson.
At daybreak, Jepherson washed up, changed into a new set of clothes, and checked out of the
hotel with Raleigh after packing their luggage. Following that, they headed for the airport.
On the flight back home, the four of them had their seats side by side; Raeleigh spent the flight
sleeping while Jepherson shut his eyes. Stuart and Lucy planned their wedding invitation and wedding
favors upon arriving back home as well as sharing their thoughts on buying a new house for Lucy's
family.
They busied themselves with what they had to do. After they disembarked from the plane, Jepherson
granted Stuart a ten-day break and instructed him to settle his business within that period. Only then
did Stuart leave with items they had bought abroad.
Raeleigh then followed Jepherson to the hotel, where she sorted her things out and asked for the
number of the courier service before making a call for it and sending the items she had purchased
home.
"It's so far away. Aren't you worried?"
Raeleigh replied, "It's merely a few pieces of garments; nothing to worry about. There's parcel
insurance, no?"
"Is there anything for me?" Jepherson sat aside and surveyed all her stuff. Everyone apart from him
was on the list.
"What do you want?"
"What can you give me?"
He rendered Raeleigh speechless.
The courier messenger stood aside and observed them, sensing an inharmonious atmosphere.
Raeleigh checked the things she had packed and sealed the box with layers of tape without leaving
anything for Jepherson. She then gave the courier messenger her ID number and contact
information before wrapping up with a signature on the required document.
"These things may seem normal, but if they're lost, I'll lodge a complaint against your company."
Raeleigh placed Jepherson's phone aside while the staff blanched and swallowed. It was the first
time he saw Jepherson right before his eyes as he only ever saw him on TV.
"The box must be loaded with valuable items," He mumbled under his breath.
In the end, he set off with the box in trepidation. As the door closed, Raeleigh made up her mind. "I
want to take a rest. We'll go shopping tomorrow morning; I'll buy you something."
With that, Raeleigh went to take a shower, locking the door behind her. Jepherson remained knocking
on the door, but Raeleigh paid no attention to it as she only emerged after she was done.
Exiting the bathroom, she announced, "I'm on my period."
Dumbfounded, Jepherson's brow knitted into a deep frown. "You're joking?"
"No."
Raeleigh was baffled too. She never had such a problem until she returned, having a period every two
weeks. At first, she thought it was due to stress, but nothing changed.
Jepherson stared at her. "Go for another check-up tomorrow."
"Alright."
Raeleigh changed her clothes and went to lie on the bed uneasily.
Hadn't Jepherson just taken her for a check-up? Why wasn't it shown on her result?
She spent the night restless. Jepherson appointed an expert in the field to check up on Raeleigh.
However, they were still told that she was okay. The main cause of the anomaly had something to do
with the hormones and the patient's anxiety. It wasn't a big deal, and she could be nursed back to
health.
Even so, she couldn't get careless and had to visit the hospital for another examination after the
menstruation.
Exiting the hospital, Raeleigh took some medication and headed for the mall with Jepherson. Upon
arrival, she began to shop for things he desired.
Raeleigh asked what he wanted, only for him to shamelessly demand a bit of everything, so Raeleigh
had no choice but to bring him around the mall, entering every store in sight.
They first bought a set of skincare products as Jepherson remarked he was almost out of them.
After inquiring about his preferences, Raeleigh selected products she found to be most suitable. They
then proceeded to purchase other items Jepherson demanded. Raeleigh was worn out after spending
the day shopping and wandering the mall, so the two decided to call it a day by visiting a nearby
restaurant for a meal.
Jepherson had booked a table in advance. After parking the car, they made their way to the restaurant.
It never occurred to Raeleigh that she would run into Flynt in that restaurant.
Raeleigh entered the restaurant with Jepherson holding her hand in his. She had never wanted to show
up in public and had chosen a secluded route with Jepherson, yet they still bumped into Flynt.
What was more, they ran into each other face-to-face.
"Are we still going elsewhere later?" During the day, Jepherson had mentioned attending a fashion
show. Raeleigh wasn't interested as she had always tried to avoid crowded places; she was still
dwelling on the issue as they entered the restaurant, asking Jepherson hurriedly for a confirmation.
But as she asked, Jepherson stiffened. It was not until iciness surged in his eyes that Raeleigh was
surprised as she turned to follow Jepherson's line of sight. A duo was standing in front of them, one of
whom was absent-mindedly fixing his eyes on Raeleigh.
Flynt?
Little did Raeleigh expect to meet Flynt.
"Raeleigh," Flynt called out as he came up to her.
Jepherson spoke up, "Mr. Cole, do you know my wife?"
Flynt paused for a second before he lifted his gaze to look at Jepherson, followed by a short
moment's hesitation. Jepherson's reminder did deter him, which led to him stopping in his tracks.
