Chapter 979 Denounce


    The driver immediately pulled over by the roadside.


    "Get out!" Jepherson immediately ordered Stuart as soon as the car stopped.


    Stuart did not say a word. He opened the door and got out of the car.


    As soon as he closed the door, the driver drove the car away.


    Stuart then got into one of the cars behind and immediately made a call.


    Since Jepherson had made up his mind, then Stuart felt that it would be better for him to keep his


    mouth shut lest it caused trouble.


    When they arrived at the Atkinson family vi, Stuart immediately got out of the car and made his way


    to Jepherson''s car to help him open the door.


    Jepherson swiftly got out of the car.


    As soon as he got out of the car, he straightened his gRhys coat and walked towards the entrance of


    the Atkinson family vi.


    "Mr. Jepherson." The people who were standing at the entrance of the Atkinson family vi, greeted


    him as soon as he approached.


    Jepherson never smiled whenever he came by, but his expression was never cold either. However, it


    was different that day. His expression was cold.


    Lennox was trembling with fear when he saw Jepherson''s expression.


    Jepherson walked past the gates and made his way to the courtyard. Stuart, who was behind him,


    hurried to follow.


    Jepherson did not look like he was here for a visit. Instead, he seemed to be here to denounce


    Deanna. Stuart hoped that there would not be any trouble.


    There were few people who had greeted Jepherson as they made their way into the vi, but he did not


    acknowledge them.


    After entering the vi, Jepherson took a quick look around. Zorion was standing in the room as he


    looked outside. Upon seeing him, he turned around, took a few steps towards Jepherson and asked,


    "What are you doing here?"


    "Am I not weed?" Jepherson was very hostile that day. He was vastly different from his usual self.


    Zorion was stunned all of a sudden.


    "What are you here to talk about?" Zorion asked, his expression was cold.


    "What else?"


    "You know Deanna, sometimes..."


    "I''m not talking about Deanna. This matter has nothing to do with her."


    Jepherson turned around and went upstairs. When he reached Deanna''s room, he raised his hand and


    knocked on the door.


    Deanna''s voice came from inside the room. "Who is it?"


    Jepherson did not want to talk, so he turned to look at Stuart. Stuart said hurriedly, "Miss Deanna, Mr.


    Jepherson is here to see you."


    When Deanna heard that Jepherson was here to see her, she immediately got up from the bed and ran


    to open the door.


    As soon as she saw Jepherson, she threw herself into his arms.


    Jepherson did not reciprocate, but he did not push her away either.


    Stuart stood on one side and lowered his head. He turned around and saw Zorion walking up the stairs.


    "This is all my fault. Raeleigh was hurt because of me, but I like you. What should I do?" Deanna cried


    and she wrapped her arms around Jepherson.


    Jepherson had yet to lift his arm to embrace her.


    Stuart instantly knew that that time, Jepherson was furious.


    Jepherson had always doted on Deanna, but that time, hisck of reaction clearly meant that she was


    about to lose him.


    "Jepherson, I really like you," Deanna said as she hugged him tightly.


    Jepherson remained silent until Zorion approached them. He lifted his hand and pushed Deanna''s


    hand away.


    "Deanna, calm down," Zorion said as he held his sister in his arms. Deanna anxiously said, "Zorion,


    please tell Jepherson. Tell him that I did not mean for anyone to get hurt. It''s just that I really like him. I


    was angry when I found out, but I did not mean for Raeleigh to get hurt. I honestly didn''t."


    Jepherson looked at Zorion, and then at Deanna, who was anxiously stamping her feet. He did not say


    a word.


    Zorion held Deanna in his arms andforted her. "Please don''t cry."


    How could Deanna not cry? Once she started crying, there was no way for her to stop.


    She looked at Jepherson with puppy eyes.


    "I don''t want to talk much about this matter. Deanna and I were both wrong. However, you cannot hurt


    Deanna like this. She''s ming herself for what''s happened. She hasn''t eaten anything." As Deanna''s


    elder brother, even though Zorion knew that he shouldn''t say these things, he just could not help


    himself.


    Jepherson looked at Zorion and said, "I''m not ming Deanna. She is young and immature. This is all


    my fault. I should have made things clear with Deanna. So, now, I am here to tell Deanna that I have


    always regarded her as my sister, just like how she is to you."


    "In the future, I will treat her as my sister. That''s all. I don''t want to see Raeleigh get hurt because of my


    negligence."


    "Regarding my rtionship with Raeleigh, I just want to make it clear that I was the one who took the


    initiative to pursue her."


    "When we got together, Deanna and Raeleigh were not friends yet. Everything was just a


    misunderstanding. Raeleigh did not betRhys Deanna."


    "I initially did not want to make my rtionship with Raeleigh public because I did not want her to get


    hurt. However, the fact that I didn''t was why she was hurt. I am extremely upset because of it."


    "Deanna is fortunate to have a brother like you, but Raeleigh does not have anyone."


    After saying that, Jepherson looked at Deanna, who was still crying, and said, "Deanna, do you still


    remember when you were a child, you and Santiago got into a fight over a toy car? In the end, I took


    the toy car and gave it to you instead of Santiago?"


    It took a long time before Deanna remembered. She nodded and said, "Santiago wasn''t happy at all.


    He wanted to hit me but you told him it was not the right thing to do."


    "Yes, that''s what I said. If Santiago wasn''t willing to give the toy car to you back, then I would have hit


    him. I would have protected you anyway," Jepherson said. Deanna pursed her lips and said, "You''re so


    kind to me then. Why have you changed?"


    "Actually, I have never changed. It''s just that you thought that I liked you. In fact, I''ve always regarded


    you as my sister and I will always protect you no matter what."


    "However, this time, I feel hurt. It hurts right here." Jepherson raised his hand and ced it on his

    chest. "Here, my heart hurts. It''s as if someone stabbed me in the chest."


    "The kind of pain that leaves me breathless. The pain was excruciating."


    "Raeleigh is an orphan. She only had her grandmother to take care of her. Ever since she was young,


    she made sure to study hard. Her life was very challenging. She has a heart made of stone. No matter


    how much others try to get close to her, she just would not let them in."


    "It took me a long time to convince her to let me in finally. This love is very challenging."


    "When I knew that she was hurt because she took the risk to save you, I was extremely upset."


    "This is not her fault. She should not bear it. A mistake is a mistake. You cannot brush it off just


    because you are Rhys Atkinson''s daughter or that you''re Zorion Atkinson''s sister."


    "Flynt treated you well when he locked you up. He neither hit nor scolded you. At the very worst, he


    would probably say something that you did not like. You also ate and slept well."


    "You were not in any sort of danger. Everyone knows this."


    "Even if you ran away, Flynt would find a way to catch you, but at least he wouldn''t hurt you."


    "However, he treated Raeleigh differently. He punched and kicked her. He basically did not treat her


    like a human. He cut her arm and nTristany sliced her throat open."


    "The reason Flynt did not hurt you was because you are Rhys''s daughter."


    "He treated Raeleigh badly because she''s not from a notable family."


    "Raeleigh knew all of this yet she still risked her life to try and save you and what did you do? You did


    not even express your gratitude and followed Santiago out of the hospital."


    "When Santiago told me that the two of you left without attempting to save Raeleigh, at that point, I


    knew...."


    "I knew that this rtionship cannot be fixed."


    Jepherson turned around and went downstairs. Stuart was scared silly. However, when he came back


    to his senses, he quickly chased after Jepherson.


    Deanna cried her heart out. Zorion held his sister tightly and did not move at all. He stood stiffly


    upstairs like a rock.
