Raeleigh's breakfast was eaten by Jepherson. Raeleigh still felt tired when she woke up. Perhaps it was because age was catching up to her. As she lay in bed, she felt as if she lacked energy.
Jepherson, who was sitting on the other side of the bed, was buttoning up his white shirt with his back to Raeleigh. Raeleigh looked like she was asleep, but in fact, she was too tired to open her eyes.
Raeleigh closed her eyes and flipped over on the bed after a long time. By then, she had already fallen asleep.
Jepherson stood up and briefly glanced at Raeleigh. Then, he turned around and walked out the door. He gently closed the door behind him and instructed the person guarding the door, "Please keep an eye on her."
"Yes, Mr. Richards."
After that, Jepherson made his way to the hotel elevator, where he was greeted by an anxious looking person.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Richards. I had no idea that you were the president of the Richards Group. I am not sure what Miss Anson did to offend you, but I hope that you can forgive her. Please let Miss Anson go and we can discuss how to resolve this matter."
Raeleigh's assistant, Kenny said. He sounded a little panicky. He had been working for Raeleigh for more than a year, but this was the first time he had come across such a problem.
Jepherson glanced over at Kenny. "Does Miss Anson have a daughter?"
"Yes." Kenny was a little confused. He wondered whether Jepherson was planning on kidnapping Raeleigh's daughter?
"Is her name Shaney?"
Kenny immediately nodded. "Yes!"
"She is my only heir. Do you know what that means?" Jepherson looked Kenny straight in the eyes. At that moment, Kenny put two and two together and immediately realised something.
"Miss Anson is..."
"Miss Anson is my wife. We had a misunderstanding a couple years ago, so she took Shaney away. This is the reason why I came here to see her."
"But..." Kenny was even more confused. Jepherson said, "I used Imperium Building as a cover to lure her over here, but I did specifically set up the company just for her. Not everything
here is nonexistent."
After saying that, Jepherson turned around and looked at his bodyguard.
Jepherson said, "Can you please inform Mr. and Madam Richards that Madam Raeleigh is back?"
After saying that, Jepherson turned around and he glanced at Kenny. Then, he said, "You can leave if you have nothing else."
It took a while for Kenny to come back to his senses. He asked, "What about Miss Anson?"
"She will be fine. The doctor said that she should stay off her feet for one week. I think you know what it means."
After saying that, Jepherson went back to the room. Kenny stood there and wondered whether it was really the doctor's orders or Jepherson just made it up?
Kenny then immediately called Xanthus. When Xanthus received the call, he was on his way to the hospital with Maverly, who was about to give birth. This was their third child in five years.
Xanthus was surprised when he received Kenny's call. He frowned and asked, "Did you see Jepherson?"
"Yes, I did. He told me..."
"What did he say?"
Xanthus's face sank slightly. He had already warned Raeleigh not to go back, but she still could not resist the offer.
