Chapter 1662
Leaving the hotel, Raeleigh inquired Lucy on what she would like the purchase, to which thetter
said she would like to get something practical. She would get it if it was suitable but give up on the
idea if she didn''te across one.
As the car parked itself at the entrance of the mall, the four of them emerged from the car.
Raeleigh and Lucy walked ahead, Jepherson and Stuart following right behind.
Raeleigh and Lucy took the opportunity to strike up a conversation, but Jepherson and Stuart had
nothing to say to each other as they fixed their scorching gazes on their women.
Entering the mall, Raeleigh apanied Lucy to the lingerie store to select their undergarments.
Raeleigh''s undergarments were all tailor-made, as well as her outfits. She would only check on
those that had caught her fancy.
So she barely spent her money. On the other hand, Lucy would give up purchasing when she
learned it was too high-priced, although she did take a liking to some of them. Her idea was that the
item had to be economical as well as to her taste.
Raeleigh strolled around the store and set her sight on a red bra. She checked the price and
gestured the salesgirl over for extra inquiry. With that, she went to Lucy.
"Lucy,e here."
Hearing Raeleigh''s call, Lucy strode over to her for Raeleigh to ask, "Does it look good?"
Lucy first felt the material, then checked the price. "It does look good, but it''s somewhat expensive.
They''ll charge a lower price if it''s in Tambend."
"Yes, but they mentioned we can get a 30% off if we were to buy two sets of it."
Lucy did a mental calction before pointing out, "It''s still slightly overpriced even with the
discount."
Raeleigh then proceeded to ask the salesgirl whether there was a higher discount if they were to
buy three sets of it. The salesgirl replied by saying that they could get 40% off.
Raeleigh inquired, "It''s a 40% discount; do you want it?"
Lucy schemed. "What about four sets? Will we get a 50% discount?"
Jepherson''s eyebrows furrowed into a frown while Stuart chuckled.
The salesgirl shook her head and apologetically told them that the highest discount they could
obtain was a 40% discount. She provided them with an alternative that they could apply for
memberships. With the membership card, which could also be used in other stores in the mall, they
would be rewarded extra gifts with every expenditure of theirs. Not only that, but they could also
enjoy special discounts once they had umted up to certain levels of points in the mall.
Raeleigh instantly applied for the membership. Thedies each bought two sets of bras.
Following that, the two did the same, obtaining discounts and gifts as they made the most out of
their money.
After spending the whole morning strolling around the mall, Raeleigh and Lucy went for lunch
before they carried on shopping.
For the first time in his life, Jepherson lost his patience. He settled down on a spot and waited for
Raeleigh. Only when the clock struck eight that Raeleigh and Lucy descended to the ground floor,
still feeling the lingering excitement from all the shopping. They agreed to continue their shopping
the next day.
In the evening, Raeleigh began sorting her shopping out when she returned to her room. She didn''t
buy a lot, just that as she sorted, shebeled them ordingly, nning to gift them to her loved
ones.
Jepherson saw two silk ties, one of which had Xanthus''s name, while she kept the other away.
Passing by, Jepherson withdrew it out of the luggage. It was a striped tie in pink and white.
"For me?"
Jepherson wrapped it around his neck. Without waiting for Raeleigh''s reply, he went to the mirror
and admired his reflection with Raeleigh staring at him from behind.
She had to admit that there were those in the world who needed no fancy garments. One example
of such a man was Jepherson; a casual shirt was sufficient for him to appear breathtaking.
Standing in front of the mirror, Jepherson asked, "How do I look?"
Raeleigh nodded but said nothing. She had nned to gift it to her father, but since Jepherson had
his eye on it, she would give it to him.
Jepherson fiddled it for a while before approaching Raeleigh and pulling her up. "Do me a favor."
With that, she fixed the tie on him. Oncepleted, she cast a nce at Jepherson and moved
back only for him to hug her from behind, questioning, "Why isn''t there one for me?"
"Haven''t you already put it on?"
Raeleigh held his hand. She was at a loss of words for how easy Jepherson could get jealous. It
was merely a tie.
"It''s really mine?"
"Mhm."
Since he had already worn it, she might as well let it be.
He carried her up and made his way to the bed. Raeleigh yelped, "Stop doing anything I don''t like.
We''ve..."
Before she could finish her words, her voice was muffled under the attack of his lips and tongue.
Raeleigh had only managed to drift off to sleepte at night and was awakened at eight in the
morning. Ignoring Jepherson''s suggestion to take a break for a day, Raeleigh thought of how both
she and Lucy had agreed on it and headed out the door.
Upon arriving at the mall, Raeleigh yawned from time to time. She took a nap, resting her head on
the table to appear more energetic at noon, but she would still fall into a deep slumber after they
had returned to the hotel.
Raeleigh had initially nned to check out jewelry with Lucy on the following day, but Jepherson
took her to the hospital for a full body check-up.

"I''mpletely fine. Why do you insist on bringing me to the hospital?"
Raeleigh was taken to the hospital before she had even had her breakfast. She had been grumbling
after sitting down, but Jepherson turned a deaf ear. He had made an appointment with the best
healthcare team to give Raeleigh aprehensive examination.
It was time to take her blood sample then.
"You can eat after they draw your blood."
Jepherson held Raeleigh''s arm, pulling her into the room whether she liked it or not.
Inside, eight tubes charged at her blood vessels like starving mosquitoes, drawing her blood dry.
She leaned on the side and watched as her blood was sent to theboratory. Only then did she
have her breakfast before continuing another series of checkups.
After a whole day of running about, the results were finally released. ording to the doctor, she
was fine, just that shecked exercise and had a frail body.
The type that couldn''t withstand distresses.
She sat aside, cupping a mug of hot cocoa. While she enjoyed her drink, Jepherson fetched some
supplements before leading her out of the hospital.
The sky had already darkened by the time they left. Raeleigh yawned as she felt drowsy once more.
Jepherson held the bag of supplements with one hand and Raeleigh''s hand with the other, walking
forward.
Across the road, Stuart''s brows furrowed slightly. "What does it feel like to hold the hand of a
woman married to another man?" He wondered.
To him, Jepherson was only tormenting himself. He knew clearly Raeleigh had married another
man, yet he still clung to her.
Seeing Stuart as they approached the car, he asked, "When have you arrived?"
"Just. We haven''t had our dinner and would like to invite you and Madam Raeleigh to join us."
"Thanks, but no. Raeleigh and I will eat in the hotel. You two have fun."
Bending over, Jepherson got into the car with Raeleigh and subsequently looked out the window at
Stuart. "I don''t need you here; you may leave."
"Yes, sir."
With that, Stuart closed the door before turning around to leave.
In the car sat the couple and the chauffeur, who sensed that something was amiss. Raeleigh had
been sleeping once she had gotten into the car, looking all drowsy and weary while Mr. Jepherson
held her in his arms...
The chauffeur sent them back to the hotel. Getting out of the car, Jepherson bent over, carried
Raeleigh in his arms, and strode into the hotel.
Raeleigh nestled in his arms. She was too tired to keep herself awake.
