Chapter 1019 The Harvey Family Banquet
Raeleigh got out of the car and was pulled over by Santiago by the wrist. Holding her hand, they
walked into Harvey Manor. Scarlette left Raeleigh''s things safely in the car. After all, who would dare to
With that thought in mind, Scarlette chased after them.
Raeleigh was escorted to Harvey Manor. Just as she entered, she saw Zorion and the Old Madam of
the Harvey family standing there, chatting away in the Ink Garden.
Paige wore a long formal dress and a white cloak. The skirt was dark green, which made her look
dignified and regal.
Seeing Raeleigh''s appearance, Paige froze for a moment. How could that child dress that way?
She then looked at her grandson, Santiago, and understood. Was he trying to tell others that they were
birds of a feather?
In fact, Raeleigh was also dressed in a simple and elegant way. However, on such an asion to meet
the future inws, in the eyes of people with high status like Paige, it would have been better for her to
have changed her clothes and worn something more formal.
Paige''s face sank slightly. She was about to say something about it, but then she suddenly thought of
Zorion next to her. She inadvertently nced at Zorion. Surely enough, Zorion was staring at Raeleigh
in a daze. And his eyes had already betRhysed his love for Raeleigh.
Paige''s mood instantly improved.
Who was Zorion? He had to lose to that good-for-nothing grandson of hers. That meant that her
grandson was either very sessful or that Zorion was useless.
Thinking of that, Paige felt more at ease and cooled down. When she looked at Raeleigh again, she
was not angry anymore.
However, Paige still didn''t give Santiago a good look. She rolled her eyes and said, "You''re so unruly.
This is property ? N?velDrama.Org.
Are you so desperate for food that you came running as if your life is in danger when called for dinner?
Do you not have food to eat outside of the house?"
Santiago stopped, let go of Raeleigh''s hand, and said, "Of course not. I just found it strange. Why do
you suddenly want to have dinner together?"
Paige did not bother answering his question. Instead, her gaze was focused on Raeleigh. Although she
was not actively being mean to her, there was an alienating look in her eyes.
"Why have youe here for dinner without changing into more appropriate clothes?" Paige said it in
a way that wasn''t disparaging her, but was nheless questioning her appearance.
Raeleigh wanted to exin herself, but before she could say anything, Santiago had already spoken.
"There''s no actual reason. We were busy, and yet we''re expected to heed your call immediately, right?
If we had gone to change our clothes, then we would have arrivedte, and you would have lectured us
about it too."
"What do you mean by this? I was only asking, and I didn''t even criticize you or anything. Look at you.
What are you doing? If you''re half as sensible as Zorion, then I need not worry so much and can rest
assured." Paige didn''t like Santiago. She didn''t like him since he was a child. He had always been
spoiled by his parents.
"Grandma, I think you''re pretty rest assured now as it is."
"You... you''ll be the death of me. Don''t let me catch sight of you. Stay away from me." Paige disliked
Santiago so much that she sent him away without saying anything else.
Santiago didn''t care about those things. Without being bothered, he dragged Raeleigh into the room.
At that time, Jepherson was already waiting in the room, sitting on the couch. Seeing Raeleigh, he put
his leg down and stood up.
Raeleigh pulled her hand away from Santiago. She lowered her head, seemingly very embarrassed.
"I''ll leave first." Santiago turned around and headed outside. As he stepped out of the door, he bumped
into Deanna, who was about to enter, and stopped her.
"What are you doing?" Deanna''s tiny face was puffed up from anger. She raised her head to look at
Santiago. She had never seen someone so annoying. She felt that she was so unlucky to have to meet
him wherever she went.
"Raeleigh and Jepherson are inside. It''s inappropriate for you to go in."
Deanna''s small face turned pale. "You don''t have to tell me these things. Where I want to go is my own
business."
Deanna took a detour and went inside. As a result, her face froze for a moment when she went in.
There was no one inside.
Deanna turned to look at Santiago, who had just entered. Her expression turned even worse as she
walked towards Santiago. She raised her small face and red angrily at him. "I knew you weren''t
telling the truth."
"Is that so?" Santiago''s eyes lifted as his gaze swept across the room. He pretended not to see anyone
and didn''t say anything. He walked past Deanna and sat down on the couch. He picked up an orange
and began peeling it for himself.
Deanna looked inside the room. The servants seemed to be afraid of Santiago and quietly left. Soon,
she and Santiago were left alone in the room.
Deanna did not like Santiago. She turned around, wanting to leave, but then turned back again.
"What''s going on between you and Raeleigh?" Deanna felt that she was meddling in other people''s
affairs. Her brother had also said that that was not a matter for them to worry about and that they
should not poke their noses in it.
However, she felt that Santiago was a particrly dishonest person. Hence, it was necessary for her to
remind him.
Santiago raised his eyes and nced at Deanna''s small and beautiful face, feeling amused. How
funny. Did all the second children really look so abnormal? He thought to himself.
Like a thousand-year-old elf?
"What''s wrong?" Santiago asked while chewing. Deanna pouted her small mouth. "What do you think?
Raeleigh and Jepherson are now together. So, why are you always hanging around Raeleigh?"
"I don''t have to exin to you the reason for this matter since it''s my business. You, on the other hand,
stand there, judging and denouncing me for no good reason. Don''t you think it''s rather unjustified and
senseless of you?"
"Who are you calling senseless?"
Deanna was so furious that her face flushed red.
"I''m talking about you." Santiago stood up and walked towards Deanna. He looked at her carefully for a
while before saying, "Don''t say anything I don''t like. Don''t meddle in other people''s businesses.
Wherever I go, it''s my business. I''ll never be controlled by others."
"Who... who''s controlling you. I just want to remind you that you''re Jepherson''s younger brother. Don''t
get involved in all things bad as it won''t do you any good. You should have some principles and not
overstep it."
"And you''re not overstepping? Youe to my home as you wish to and fro, shouting and yelling at
me, judging me." Santiago continued tough. Deanna was so angry that she didn''t know what to say
and turned around to leave. Santiago found it to be very funny. Heughed for a while. He then turned
around and returned to the couch. His legs were crossed as he ate the orange while looking at the
door.
Raeleigh was brought upstairs by Jepherson into another room. To be precise, his room.
Raeleigh''s first impression of the room was that it wasrge and spacious. It was not as luxurious as
the rest of the house, but it was not difficult to see that the atmosphere in the room was unique.
Raeleigh observed it for a while and was hugged by Jepherson from behind. Raeleigh hurriedly tried to
get rid of Jepherson but was instead carried from behind and onto the bed.
"You can''t do this. What if we''re discovered?" Raeleigh pushed against Jepherson, terrified. Jepherson
took off his clothes and lowered his head to kiss her. "There won''t be anyone who''d find out."
"What if..."
"There''s no ''what if''!"
...
When Raeleigh was finally released, she had no strength left. Jepherson got out of bed and carried
Raeleigh off for a bath.
Raeleigh had juste out from the side after putting on her clothes when there was a knock on the
door.
"It''s dinner time." Standing outside, Santiago knocked on the door. Raeleigh immediately blushed and
was short of breath. Comparatively, Jepherson, who was only dressed in a sleeping robe, stood
opposite her, and answered lightly, "Got it."
