Chapter 1499 Legally Married
Staring nkly at the marriage certificate in her hand, Raeleigh was at a loss. How was she married
just like that?
While Raeleigh spaced out on a chair, Jepherson was handing out wedding favors to everyone. Not
just couples, but everyone on the scene.
Raeleigh and Jepherson went to the registry at four in the morning. There was already a line when they
got there, but they were lucky that day. Soon after, a few of the couples in front of them suddenly had
other matters to attend to, so by the time the office opened, there were barely any couples lining up
before them. Hence, they were the first to go in.
After entering, Jepherson answered all the questions, took a picture, and then went to the side.
While Raeleigh was spacing out after getting the actual certificate, Jepherson had someone bring over
the wedding favors and hand them out to spread the joy.
Meanwhile, Raeleigh wondered how she should exin it to her parents.
When Jepherson returned and sat down next to her, she looked at him with a baffled gaze. "We''re
really married?"
"Not really, not until we hold a wedding." Jepherson was overjoyed that day. It was the first time she
had ever seen him grinning from ear to ear the moment he woke up. That kind of joy came from deep
within.
He looked like a worry-free buffoon.
"We came way too Tristany, and I''m really sleepy. Let''s go home." Raeleigh put the marriage certificate
away as she stood up, nning to go home.
"Let''s get some food," Jepherson suggested, not intending to go back so soon. He wanted to show her
the streets of A City as this was his hometown after all.
Although Raeleigh was a little tired, she still followed Jepherson around. When they went to have a
meal, she simply slept in his arms. Jepherson put her head on hisp while he leaned against the
window and looked at the beautiful scenery outside.
Spring had finallye.
When Raeleigh woke up, she was already in Jepherson''s car, and the two were on their way back to
the Harvey Group Manor.
She looked out blearily.
She had be Jepherson''s wife just like that?
There was a hint of reluctance within her. She had already be a married woman when she hadn''t
had enough of being a young woman.
"I thought we were going to eat?" Raeleigh sat up as she asked Jepherson. Amused, he
replied, "You''re already asleep, and you still want to eat?"
With that, she fell silent, fixing her eyes on the outside world. She couldn''t believe she had slept for
nTristany an entire day; she sure was a sloth.
Momentster, she turned to Jepherson, who was driving. "It''s probably way past dinner now; we won''t
have anything to eat going back now."
"Is it?" The corner of Jepherson''s mouth curled into a smile. She thought her brain was ying tricks
with her. Not only was Jepherson happy, but he was also not his usual self that day.
It seemed that his role as her husband had done wonders.
Raeleigh shook her head, looking somewhat helpless. Miracles happen every second in this world. She
had never thought of actually getting married; after all, they were trouble-filled, but she couldn''t change
anything. However, she had be his legal wife just like that on this trip.
Out of all the impermanence, this was the most shocking one. How should she tell her parents or

exin it to her brother?
After they arrived at the manor, Jepherson unfastened his seat belt, got out of the car, and moved to
Raeleigh''s side to open the door and carry her out. She had wanted to refuse, thinking it was ridiculous
of him, but a few servants came out from Ink Garden, so she wrapped her arms around his neck, letting
him do as he pleased.
Taken aback, Jepherson looked at the girl in his arms and wondered why she had suddenly be so
obedient.
It wasn''t until he carried her out of the car and looked up that he understood why.
Looking down at her, he put on a viinous grin, and he looked more unperturbed, carrying her in his
arms.
With that, he walked toward Fragrance Garden leisurely, but the servants hurriedly went to them,
seeing that they had finally returned after spending an entire day outside.
"Mr. Jepherson, Miss Raeleigh, Madam Paige has been waiting for a long time. Please go to Ink
Garden."
The servant didn''t dare to look up as it was evident Paige wanted to reproach them. Although
Jepherson had a good temper and was easy-going, everyone knew he hated evil-doers. If he knew
they brought him over to his grandmother to settle some scores, who knew what he would doter.
Jepherson took a nce at the servant and strode to Ink Garden while Raeleigh remained in his arms,
not requesting to walk on her own.
Since the battle had begun, and she had someone to back her up, she didn''t need to be afraid.
As they soon approached Paige''s room, Raeleigh was still in Jepherson''s arms. Seeing so, Belle went
to them and retorted, "Come down this instant. Where do you think you''re at?"
Jepherson stopped, and Raeleigh looked over, slightly blushed.
Only then did Jepherson put her down. She nced at her disobedient son before turning to Raeleigh,
"Don''t go too far; It won''t do you any good to burn your boats. Although the situation is somewhat
suspicious, we still have to live our lives after they leave. We''re family, after all; no matter how some
people treat you, they''re still one of us. Let the past stay in the past; we still have to sit down and have
dinner together, no?"
As Belle was getting on in age, she could see the bigger picture better. How could she not know her
son''s thoughts? But it was precisely that that she couldn''t leave things be.
"You''re right, Mom." Raeleigh had always respected Belle. On seeing that Raeleigh was so sensible,
Belle was relieved.
Holding Raeleigh''s hand, Belle said, "Don''t rush love. As long as you two love each other, no one can
change your future."
"Don''t be impulsive as it''s the only way your rtionship can grow into something beautiful."
"It''s only natural for Grandma to be upset when you two have been out the whole day. When you go in
"Even if someone does start a fight, Jerry wouldn''t allow it." Belle patted Raeleigh.
Raeleigh said after thinking for a while, "I understand."
"Good. I regret most losing a daughter; you''re more sensible and considerate than she was. Now that
you''re one of us, I have no more regrets."
Belle said with a soft gaze, and Raeleigh regarded her as her mother at once.
With that, Belle looked over at Paige''s room. "I won''t be going in, lest I''ll be stuck in a difficult position
when you''re lectured, feeling sorry for you but unable to do anything."
"Good night, Mom," Raeleigh said hurriedly.
Belle wore a smile, "I can finally be at ease having you around. There''s finally someone to boss him
around."
With that, Belle went to one side. Jepherson''s mouth twitched. "What do you mean?"
