Chapter 1322 Speechless Rhys


    Santiago tapped on the phone and the contents of the phone were deleted. He turned to look at


    Jepherson.


    "What''s the n?"


    Jepherson thought for a moment and said, "We''ll go there tonight."


    Santiago felt a bubble ofughter rising from his lungs.


    When he heard that they were going during the night, he smiled smugly. "You coward!"


    "Goodness, who are you insulting again?" Belle came out of the bathroom, looking peeved. She


    seemed to have heard a scream just then.


    Raeleigh was so nervous, thinking, why was she wearing a skirt in the winter?


    Raeleigh was brought out and she stood at the door of the bathroom. Jepherson and Santiago both


    looked at Raeleigh at the same time. She lowered her head and her face turned red.


    The two brothers, however, were entranced by it.


    "Doesn''t she look gorgeous! I''ve hired a designer from France to design it especially for Raeleigh."


    Belle seemed to im credit for her look. Calvin took a sip of the tea and did not have much thoughts.


    He could only say that his son''s taste was indeed good, but was still second to his.


    Of course, his wife was the best he could ask for.


    Belle pulled Raeleigh to one side. "Raeleigh has a beautiful figure, but she is shy."


    "It''s too cold. I''ll change my clothes first." Raeleigh turned around and went back. Jepherson and


    Santiago kept staring at Raeleigh until she went to the bathroom and closed the door.


    Calvin''s eyes were full of emotions. He took a sip of water and said, "We can''t leave Stuart alone. Your


    mother and I don''t care about the incident with the Doyle family. What you should know is that Stuart


    grew up without a mother. It had always been Aron who raised him. Aron had always treated the both


    of you like his son and I''ve always treated Stuart like my son too. Meeting this harsh reality, Aron can


    actually choose to leave all of this behind but still, he chose to stay."


    "That time, even Aron didn''t say anything but I knew that he wasn''t in a good mood."


    "So..."


    "Do you understand?"


    When Calvin asked his two sons, Belle stood by the side, silent. When she thought of Stuart, her mood


    became dreary.


    Stuart was an adopted child. It was said that he was saved from a fire incident. Aron saved Stuart from


    that burning house. Belle did not know the details, but it seemed that Aron and Stuart were blood-


    rted father and son.


    "We know."


    Belle looked at Jepherson and said, "Be careful."


    "Got it."


    After saying that, Santiago stepped out first, followed by the others. In the end, only Xanthus was


    waiting for Raeleigh in the room.


    While Raeleigh did note out, Belle said to Xanthus, "I hope that Raeleigh can stay here. At the


    very least, she''ll be safe. What do you think, Xanthus?"


    Xanthus had the same thought, so he nodded.


    Belle smiled happily and said, "Great minds think alike. You can stay next door with Raeleigh. There


    are two beds over there. If something''s up, then we can take care of each other."

    "I know." Xanthus was just talking to Belle when Raeleigh came out of the bathroom, carrying her


    clothes. She was very surprised to see that everyone had left.


    Xanthus told her, "Raeleigh, Mrs. Harvey said that we should stay next door. That way, it should be


    easier to take care of each other."


    "Okay."


    Raeleigh nodded. Xanthus had already agreed, she had no reason to refuse.


    The two siblings then left to pack and move their things to their new room. When the door was closed,


    Belle breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Just now. I was going to say that I want Raeleigh to stay


    alone, but I saw Xanthus''s eyes, as if he knew what I was going to say. So, I tweaked my idea. Thank


    God! Otherwise, he would not have agreed to let her stay."


    Calvin continued to drink his water. He could not pay attention to the story his wife was telling him. In


    fact, he was hearing in his mind''s ear, the sound of Raeleigh screaming and his youngest son gasping


    for breath.


    Santiago was the one who had been hurt, but he also felt the pain as a father. The matter would not be


    forgiven easily.


    Rhys got off the ne and patted Lottie''s hand. "You have to be mentally prepared. I have something


    to tell you."


    Lottie still didn''t know about the issues regarding their two children in her family. She just knew that her


    husband wanted to go back suddenly. She didn''t know what happened.


    Perhaps, he missed his daughter.


    Lottie looked at him strangely and asked, "Rhys, are you hiding something from me?"


    Rhysforted his beloved wife and said, "Guilty as charged. But I don''t know how to tell you."


    Rhys''s mouth curved slightly as he spoke. Lottie really didn''t understand this man. But what he was


    doing seemed to be a good thing.


    "Rhys, what exactly is it?" Lottie asked anxiously.


    Rhys lowered his head and patted her hand. They walked out of the airport together and got into the


    car.


    Lottie looked at the car but she couldn''t find her children in it. What was going on?


    "Rhys, where are Zorion and Deanna?"


    "They are all at home."


    As the car slowly drove away, Rhys''s eyes looked a littleplicated. Halfway through the journey,


    Rhys said to his beloved wife, Lottie, "Zorion has a girlfriend."


    "Come again?"


    Lottie was shocked. "A girlfriend?"


    Subconsciously, Lottie thought of Raeleigh. She had heard about this girl from Deanna. She seemed to


    have seen her before. She could only recall that Raeleigh was really good-looking but she could no


    longer remember her appearance, only her name.


    "It is that Raeleigh girl?" Lottie blurted out. Rhys thought for a moment and shook his head. The


    attrition due to aging couldn''t be seen on his face at all, and he was still as timeless a man as ever.


    "Then, who might it be?"


    Rhys did not answer. He took out his cell phone and unlocked it. He showed a photo of Rossie to


    Lottie. Lottie was also stunned. She was really beautiful.


    "So, this girlfriend isn''t the same one as before?"


    Lottie was a little confused. The girl was beautiful, but she was still young, however one looked at it.


    "How old is she?"


    Lottie couldn''t help but to ask. She was and would always be fine with her son having a girlfriend, but


    she seemed a little too young for him.


    Rhys shifted his gaze and said, "She wasn''t willing to be his girlfriend, but Zorion couldn''t control


    himself. He forced himself on her, and now they''re walking on thin ice."


    Lottie turned to look at Rhys for a long time. "What the...?"


    Rhys narrowed his eyes as he walked down memoryne. His son''s character was the same as him, a


    dyed-in-the-wool one-woman man. Once he fell down the ravine of love, he would never want to leave


    again.


    Lottie looked at Rossie''s photo in Rhys''s cell phone. Was this girl truly such a keeper worthy of the


    sacrifice?


    She turned around and looked at her husband''s handsome face. Could this be an inherited trait? Can


    being affectionate also passed down with one''s genes?


    Their car moved steadily along the road. When they arrived at the desNorahtion, Rhys opened his


    eyes. Lottie stared at the phone and got out of the car. Rhys walked to her. She immediately took


    Rhys''s arm and asked, "Why haven''t I heard anything from Deanna? Doesn''t she care about her


    brother a tad bit?"


    Lottie was full of doubt. Rhys did not answer. He lowered his head and looked at his toes.


    Lottie slowly stopped. "Could it be..."


    "Let''s go."


    Rhys neither wanted to say much, nor could he say anything.
