Chapter 1693 Pay Him A Visit
Raeleigh turned to look at Deanna, who was in a daze. A few moments later, Deanna asked, “What are you guys talking about?”
Raeleigh froze for a moment, not knowing how to explain.
Jacky stood up, “I think it’s time we make a move.”
Jacky walked to the door, opened it and went outside. Deanna followed suit. After stepping out of the room, she turned around and looked at Raeleigh with a weird look on her face.
Deanna looked at Jacky, “Jacky, do you fancy Raeleigh as well?”
Deanna’s heart suddenly felt uncomfortable. She felt as if she had been betrayed by Raeleigh!
What should she do?
Jacky looked over at Deanna and said, “Deanna, you must keep in mind that in this life, I will only want to have kids with you. I am a man after all, it’s normal for me to look at other girls, but you’re the only one I’ll ever love. As for the rest….”
“What about the rest?” Deanna was anxious.
Jacky smiled, “Santiago is my best friend. So is Logan. Raeleigh is my confidant and you’re the love of my life.”
Deanna was lost in her thoughts. Jacky continued, “The only person Santiago worries about is Raeleigh, but he is in a coma and Logan is dead. You and Raeleigh are all that I have right now.”
Deanna asked, “If Raeleigh and I fell into the ocean, who would you save first?”
“I’ll save Raeleigh first. Then, I’ll go back to save you and if I can’t, I will die with you!”
Deanna was momentarily stunned. She stared at Jacky’s face and curled her lips, “I’ll try my best not to fall into the ocean. At least, I will still be able to help you to save Raeleigh.”
Jacky was amused. He pulled Deanna into his arms and smiled proudly.
As they made their way downstairs, Deanna kept asking Jacky questions about her and Raeleigh. She even asked him who was more beautiful.
Jacky opened the car door and got into the car as he answered. The two of them did not take this matter seriously at all, but Deanna acted in a very coquettish way.
As Jacky’s car drove away, a person dressed in a nurse’s uniform watched them from inside of the hospital.
Today, Deanna had a class to attend. So, Jacky dropped her off at the university before leaving.
Deanna got off the car and walked into the campus while reading a book.
“Deanna.”
While walking, she heard someone calling her from behind. She turned around and saw a person running towards her.
Deanna looked at the person strangely. It was Laila Wyld, one of her classmates.
Laila’s results were good and they were both in the postgraduate program. They briefly interacted once or twice before.
“I heard that you’re looking for your research partner. I’m also looking for one! Why don’t we pair up?”
Deanna thought for a moment. “Who told you that? I’m not looking for a research partner.”
“That’s what everyone’s saying. Is it not true?”
Laila asked Deanna. Deanna shook her head. “No, it’s not.”
“So, are you looking for a research partner or not?”
Deanna shook her head. “No, I think I can handle it on my own, plus we’re not familiar with each other. Who knows? Maybe you turn out to be a liar? Don’t you think so? There’s a saying that goes, one who is unaccountably solicitous is hiding evil intentions.”
Laila’s face turned red. “How can you say that about me?”
“I mean, you asked. I’m just speaking the truth. Don’t you think so?”
Deanna’s words were quite logical. After that, she turned around and left.
Laila was furious.
Deanna casually walked away and continued to read her book, completely ignoring Laila.
…
“You’re telling me that you can’t get close to Deanna?” Flynt stood by the window with his back to Laila. Laila said, “She might look naive, but it’s just her look. She even scolded me!”
Laila was furious!
Deanna had pissed her off.
“I’m telling you, do not ruin my plans. You’d better not cause trouble for me. I don’t want you to be biased against Deanna!
Let me remind you, you’re not allowed to lay your hands on Deanna. If something happens to her, I won’t even be able to escape unscathed, much less you. I’m sure you’re aware what kind of person Jacky and Zorion are.”
Laila gritted her teeth and said, “Then what? I’m supposed to let this matter slide?”
“Didn’t I tell you that I was trying to sow discord between Deanna and Raeleigh? Deanna is innocent, she’s naive. As long as you can control her, then you’ll be able to get what you want.”
…
Deanna came out of the school after class. She got in the car and said to Jacky, “I want to see Raeleigh. I have something to discuss with her.”
It would only take Jacky one hour to get to Raeleigh’s place.
When they arrived at the hospital, Deanna knocked on the door. Jepherson opened the door for her. As soon as she entered the door, she immediately walked over to Raeleigh and said, “Raeleigh, I have something to tell you. You must be careful these days. Don’t go anywhere. I think Flynt is up to something again.”
Raeleigh was sitting on the bed and Deanna grabbed her hand. Then she looked at Jepherson and Jacky.
“What happened?” Jepherson knew that Deanna was a naive person, but she would not speak carelessly.
“After I left here this morning, I went over to the university because I had a class to attend in the afternoon. However, as soon as I entered the school, a girl called Laila came looking for me. She told me that she heard that I was looking for a research partner, but I wasn’t looking for one at all. Don’t you think it’s strange?Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
I said something to her and then I ignored her.
However, I did not see her at all during class. Don’t you think it’s weird that a person who was looking for a research partner, did not attend class. Where could she be?
By the time the class ended, she was still nowhere to be seen.”
Raeleigh looked towards Jacky. Sometimes Raeleigh really admired the shrewdness of Deanna. Actually, she was just a little naive, but definitely not stupid.
Jacky looked at Deanna and said, “Deanna, do you think that Flynt sent her?”
“I could tell at first glance. I can’t be wrong.”
Jacky stood up, “He’s got guts! How dare he lay his hands on Deanna?”
“No, he didn’t. He’s just trying to get her attention.”
Jepherson glanced at Raeleigh, who said, “It seems that Flynt is really fine. He’s just pretending to be ill.”
“I’ll go over and visit him. After all, he is Mr. Moore of Capital City.”
Jacky smiled. He briefly glanced at Deanna and said, “Come on, let’s go and see him.”
Then she waved to Raeleigh and followed Jacky.
After Jacky and Deanna left, Raeleigh asked, “Is there anything we can do now?”
“They’re just going to see him. Flynt has decided to take action. If we don’t give him a warning, I don’t know what he will do.”
Jepherson smiled. “It’s good now. We don’t know what’s going to happen.”
Raeleigh glanced at Jepherson. “You’re always looking forward to the chaos of the world, aren’t you?”
Jepherson looked at Raeleigh. “What do you mean?”
“What do you think?”
Raeleigh lay down. It was so cold outside, so she wrapped the quilt tightly around her. This was the only way she could warm herself up.
