Chapter 1335
Initially, Raeleigh thought they were going back to the hospital, but instead, they went to
Jepherson''spany.
She stared at thepany building from inside the car, wondering why Jepherson would return to
hispany at night.
She did not know what to say. So, she only sat there in silence.
"Come out." Jepherson got out of the car and waited for Raeleigh. However, she didn''t seem to
acknowledge him. Instead, she stayed in the car, refusing toe out.
She came out to rx, not to follow Jepherson to thepany. She felt that she was not ready yet,
and it was not the right time to go to work, not to mention it was thente at night.
"I''m noting out. You may go in if you have something to do. I will wait for you outside," she said.
Then, she turned her face away from him.
Jepherson gazed at thepany''s entrance. Just like any otherpany, they were also closed at
night. But sometimes, there were exceptions.
His eyes wandered to Raeleigh''s face. He stood outside the car and said, "I''m going inside to
search for something. It''s cold outside at night. Pleasee in with me."
"I don''t feel cold. It''s warm inside the car. If you are going to stay for a long time, then I''ll tell the
driver to take me home."
Raeleigh''s determined words scared the driver out of his wits. He would not dare to go back without
Jepherson''s orders.
Jepherson nced at Raeleigh inadvertently. "Come down. It will be more troublesome if I go up
alone. You know that I am not kidding."
Raeleigh was so furious that her face had turned red. He promised to take her out for a walk, but
instead of taking a walk, he took her to Deanna''s ce. And right then, they were here.
She turned her head swiftly and red at Jepherson, but he kept persuading her. "Come down.
We''ll leave after a while. I promise you that I won''t touch you or force you to do anything. We''ll leave
whenever you want."
Raeleigh pondered for a while, and she then came out of the car. She looked around her before
following him into the building.
Apparently, Jepherson had already made arrangements. The building''s entrance opened instantly
when he arrived at the door.
Raeleigh followed him into the hall and immediately squinted. The lights inside were as bright as
daytime. They stepped into the elevator and went directly to Jepherson''s office on the top floor.
After pushing the door open, Jepherson paused and looked at Raeleigh. Raeleigh walked into the
office, sensing a great amount of pressure on her.
She was familiar with the office, but she did not want to stay here for long.
Jepherson closed the office door shut and said, "Sometimes, I design drawings too. In the
beginning, I only did it in the office. But I never let anyone find out about this."
"Our job requires us to stay vignt at all times. Anyone might steal our belongings, and you and I
are no exception!"
He walked into the office and shrugged off his coat, and he then hung it on the clothes rack. After
that, he turned around and walked towards the bookshelf behind him. He pushed the bookshelf to
the side and a hidden door was revealed. Behind the door was a brightly lit room.
Raeleigh froze on the spot at such a sight, her entire body unresponsive.
"This is my other world. I bet you didn''t expect me to have such a secret ce, did you?"
Jepherson turned around and entered the secret passage behind the bookshelf, leaving Raeleigh in
shock. After a moment, Raeleigh returned to her senses and began moving forward.
After the two of them went into the secret room, Jepherson closed the door and turned to stare at
Raeleigh''s surprised face.
At that moment, Raeleigh was admiring theyout of the secret room. It was simr to a small
studio, the rectangryout extending into the interior. She thought that it was only a background
wall behind the bookshelf and that Jepherson was utilizing the space to store all kinds of books that
he liked to read.
To her surprise, there was a studio hidden behind the bookshelf once they pushed it aside.
"This ce is well-ventted because there is a huge window on the opposite side of the room, and
you can see things far away through the window. There are all kinds of working models and tables
filled with drawings on both sides of the room, as well as a few chairs."
Raeleigh turned to look at him suspiciously. "You are alone. Why would you prepare so many
chairs?"
Jepherson chuckled and replied, "I''m not alone. asionally, I will take a rest here with Santiago.
Sometimes, he does not want his parents to know he''s back. So, he will live here for a few days
while I work outside. There is a toilet and a bathroom here. It''s very convenient. You see, there is
another room further down the studio. That''s the ce for cooking, but there is nothing to eat inside.
It''s just a kitchen."
Raeleigh walked towards the direction Jepherson had described and found that there was indeed a
ss door at the end of the studio. She pushed it open and saw a small but fully-fitted kitchen.
She stood outside the kitchen nkly, and she then turned to look at Jepherson. "Are you two still
staying here?"
"I don''t really stay here much. After all, I can''te in without leaving. The staff will suspect that
something is going on."
"Some people in thepany know that I have a design room here, but very few of them know that
I would asionallye over. Especiallyte at night."
"I like to watch the outside world from here."
He strode to the window to take a look as he spoke. Raeleigh followed him to the window. She then
stood beside him and looked outside. After a long while, she asked, "Why did you bring me here?"
"Nothing. I just thought that you have something for me," he replied as he walked to the side and
sank into the couch. She watched as he sat down, and when she thought of the moment when they
were in the car, she chuckled. "Good observation."
"Same to you." Jepherson lifted his eyes to look at her. She had to admit that he had a pair of
enchanting eyes. His eyes were full of charm. She had never seen a man with such deep eyes and
thick eyshes like Jepherson''s.
Raeleigh read from somewhere before that a man with thick eyshes was usually sensitive, but
she didn''t find him sensitive. Instead, she thought that he was not easy to get along with, and he
was a cunning person.
His personality reminded her of an animal, a fox.
He was as cunning as a fox. It was not an overstatement to call him a fox.

She walked towards Jepherson from where she stood, and she then looked down at him and asked,
"Can I redeem myself with my secondary work?"
The corners of Jepherson''s mouth curled into a sly grin, his beautiful chiselled face looking even
more charming under the light. "You are now part of ourpany, and all of your works are owned
by thepany. How can you use your secondary work to redeem yourself?"
Raeleigh replied after a pause, "Although this is the case, what if I don''t hand my work to you and
sell it to other people in need instead? In this way, thepany will suffer losses. After all, there are
no rules saying that I must hand in all my work to thepany, right?"
Raeleigh argued. Jepherson was still smiling nonchntly. He leaned against the wall and said,
"You may say so. But there are other rules. Since thepany dares to hire people like you and
allow you all to work freely, they must have a way to find out whether you created these works.
Once thepany finds out that you have done something that hinders thepany''s
development, thepany will hand the case over to the legal institutions."
"I believe that you are a smart person. You know very well the importance of reputation and that it is
above everything else."
