Chapter 955 They Will Not Turn Against Each Other
Jepherson slowed his steps letting Raeleigh catch up to him then reached out and took her hand in his.
Raeleigh instinctively tried to pull her hand away. Laughing, Jepherson held on, "Come on, there''s no
one around."
Raeleigh narrowed her eyes at him Jepherson. What a bully!
But did she really want to tug her hand away? She continued walking. When Jepherson stopped
walking did she finally ask what had been on her mind. "Why are you here?"
"I need your help. Remember that blue car you designed? I want to invest in that and name it after you.
You do know that mypany needs talented designers like you, right? I hope you will consider joining
mypany."
Raeleigh thought of her design. As proud as she is of her design, she had a feeling that Scarlette was
behind this sudden request. This was not the first time after all.
"Jepherson, I..." Raeleigh was about to refuse, but before she could say more, Jepherson interrupted.
"Don''t tell say that you want to focus on your studies. You need to n for your future anyway. Promise
you''ll help me."
......
Irritation welled up in Raeleigh at Jepherson''s overbearing behaviour. He did not even give her a
chance to refuse his offer.
"I don''t want to make any rash decisions, but if you are truly fond of the design and want to put it into
production, then I can give it to you."
"You''re willing to give it to me?" A huge smile appeared and Raeleigh could not help but feel something
was amiss. She couldn''t put her finger on it but there seemed to be a hidden meaning behind his
words. What was Jepherson up to again?
Slightly uneasy, she borated, "That''s all I can give to you. I will not promise you anything else."
"What if you sold it to me?" Jepherson asked.
Raeleigh knew that it was a trap.
This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.
"That drawing is not a big deal. I did it on a whim so there''s no value in keeping it. As for its name, I
actually like the name Lanox. Of course, you don''t have to use it if that name doesn''t sound good."
"Sounds good. What do you currently value the drawing at?"
"I''m not sure yet."
"If I put it into production, I reckon you would receive at least 10 million dors. Of course, that''s just a
rough figure. If you sign a contract with me, then you''ll get more money in the future. Are you sure you
want to just to give it to me?" Jepherson asked again. Raeleigh said, "It''s just a piece of paper. If you
think it''s worth something, go ahead. It may not appeal to others anyway. Different people have
different opinions. I know where I stand."
"What if it''s your dowry?"
Raeleigh whipped her head up and gaped at Jepherson. Was he was crazy?
"I don''t have a dowry."
"It''s not easy to marry into the Harvey family if you don''t."
Raeleigh did not have a retort. Every time she talked to Jepherson, it felt as if there were hidden
meanings behind his words. Like a spider spinning his web, drawing her in.
Raeleigh paced and looked at Jepherson every so often. Atst, he said, "Lanox is a good name. I will
produce a limited edition of 100 cars. That will be your dowry."
"You..."
Raeleigh stalked off, heading back to her dorm, and did not look at Jepherson anymore. She walked off
her frustration and made her way back to the dormitory.
When Raeleigh entered the dormitory, she looked for Scarlette, who turned out to be awake and
smiling at her. Raeleigh asked, "Aren''t you afraid of having a nightmare by doing this?"
Scarlette avoided her gaze then, she had no choice either.
Raeleigh did not see Jepherson for the next few days, nor did she receive any calls. She felt like she
was being ghosted. Rather than enjoying some peace and quiet, Flynt seized his chance to insinuate
himself in her life. The guy she saw plenty of.
The ss was noisier now with Flynt in their ss.
Raeleigh preferred keeping to herself. If Deanna stopped bugging her, she would even forget about her
existence.
As Raeleigh went out of the ssroom, intending to go back to the dormitory for something she forgot,
she bumped into someone.
And that person was none other than Flynt.
The notebook that Raeleigh was holding fell out of her hand onto the ground after they collided. As she
reached down to pick it up, Flynt beat her to it, quickly picking it up and handing it back to her.
Raeleigh fixed her eyes on the notebook and said nothing. Quickly she turned away, hoping to avoid
any further interactions.
Flynt stopped her in her tracks. "Don''t you want to know why I decided to study here?"
Raeleigh stopped, but she did not look back.
Raeleigh disliked meddling in other people''s affairs. She really did not want to know his purpose of
Flynt watched as Raeleigh started walking again, further and further away from him back to the
dormitory. He let her go. Flynt knew he had to be patient and bide his time.
When Flynt turned around he realised Zorion was right behind him.
No words were spoken. They just stared each other down. After that, Flynt walked away while Zorion
followed Raeleigh route to her dormitory.
Raeleigh came out of the room with a book in her hand, then handed it book to Zorion.
"Thanks for the book."
Zorion epted the book and asked, "What did Flynt say to you?"
"Nothing. He asked me whether I wanted to know the reason why he''s here." Raeleigh did not think
that Zprion had any harm in hiding the truth.
"So, did you want to know?"
Raeleigh shook her head. "What does other people''s business have to do with me?"
"He''s here to make a deal with me." Zorion was very serious when he spoke. rm bells rang in her
head.
"He wants my help in defeating Jepherson."
Raeleigh froze then she forced a smile and said, "Is that so?"
She didn''t have time for this. Her ss was starting in a few minutes and she needed to leave. Zorion
reached out and grabbed her hand to stop her from leaving. She scowled at him.
She did not like his smile. "If I agree to his n, you''ll be mine. Flynt is willing to give you up."
Raeleigh asked in disbelief, "Are you that stupid?"
Zorion was stunned for a moment at her sharp words. Then he smiled brightly and said, "Of course
not."
When Zorion released her she quickly walked towards the ssroom. Zorion followed and asked, "You
do know that I will not turn against Jepherson, right?"
"Why would you turn against him?" Raeleigh really hated having this conversation. She wasn''t like
Deanna, who spoke her mind all the time; neither was she like Scarlette, who did not filter her words.
Raeleigh was usually one who filtered her thoughts before speaking, weighing it before giving voice to
them. However, today she spoke her mind.
Zorion contemted her and said, "For you."
That stopped her. "I don''t believe you."
"Why not?"
"You are not the kind of person who would turn against someone for the sake of a woman."
"How can you be so sure?" Zorion could feel Raeleigh''s confidence when she said it.
She would not understand the past he and Jepherson''s shared.
Though he probably would not betRhys Jepherson for even himself.
Raeleigh stared at Zorion for a while, but kept silent and continued walking. Then, "It''s just like Deanna
and I. We will not turn against each other for Jepherson."
Zorion frowned. "You can only speak for yourself. You can''t speak on behalf of Deanna."
Exasperated, Raeleigh said, "I give up very easily. How about that?"
...
Zorion was speechless. He had no reply to that statement.
It was true that she could not speak on behalf of Deanna, but she could resolve this matter in her own
way.
Zorionughed, "But neither one of us are the kind of person who gives up easily."
Raeleigh shook her head, "You will."
"Why do you say that?"
"I just feel it."
