Chapter 1830


    Today, Jacky was having a barbecue, simr to the day Raleiegh left.


    Raeleigh helped out with the cooking while Jepherson watched over the children. Jacqueline could


    basically get along with almost anyone and immediately engaged in a conversation with Jepherson.


    Deanna was making some food while Raeleigh focused on roasting the skewers.


    Jacky sat next to Raeleigh and asked, "Do you know that Santiago''sing home today?"


    Raeleigh paused for a while and looked at Jacky for a long time before she said, "I had no idea."


    "He called me and told me that he will be arriving at six in the evening. He sounded a little off."


    Raeleigh took a quick nce at the time. It was already four o''clock.


    "Why didn''t he tell me?"


    "I have no idea."


    Jacky looked at Jepherson, who was ying with Jacqueline in the distance. "I just have a feeling


    that something is about to happen. Could it be that Santiago is up to something?"


    Raeleigh took a look at the red string on her wrist.


    She never took it off. It represented their rtionship.


    "I mean, if hees, it''s fine. If he doesn''te, it seems that I can''t leave either."


    "You''re still nning on leaving?" Jacky looked at Raeleigh and said, "Time really flies. Ten years


    have passed in a sh. Do you still remember the time when we first met?"


    Raeleigh looked at Jacky. He said, "We wouldn''t have met if it weren''t for Santiago."


    Raeleigh ced the cooked skewers aside. "I''ll go and pick them up."


    "I think you should stay. They are probably already..."


    Just as Jacky was speaking, a car pulled up in front of the house. Raeleigh recognised the car


    because it was hers.


    Raeleigh designed it herself. She was worried that something would happen to them in the wild as


    Santiago frequently took the kids out for camping. So, she specially designed this car, which was


    fully protected.


    This time, Santiago brought four of the kids out for camping. They left earlier than she did.


    Raeleigh immediately stood up when she saw the car. When the car pulled to a stop, Santiago


    opened the door and got out of the car.


    The children, too, got out of the car.


    Jacky''s sons, Cedric and Heitor, immediately got down from the car and ran towards Jacky. He was


    also stunned for a moment when he realized how big and tall his sons were. They were already ten


    years old and were about 1.5m tall. Raeleigh realized that Jacky did have good genes.


    Then, Chaney got off the car. For her age, she was much taller than her peers.


    Thest toe down was Forden, who was five years old this year. He was wearing a pair of


    sunsses to shield his eyes. He was five-year-old, but he acted like a seven year old child and he


    dressed very much like Santiago.


    Forden took a quick look at the surroundings. When he spotted Raeleigh, he walked towards her.


    He raised his head and crooked his fingers at Raeleigh. Raeleigh lowered her head and he gave


    her a kiss on the cheek.


    "Babe, are you okay? We heard that you were sick, so we decided to change our ns and hurried


    over from Paneroic Ocean."


    Raeleigh was a little embarrassed and remained silent. "This boy..."


    Shaney appeared behind Forden and kicked him. "Hey, what''s wrong with you?"


    Forden turned around and red at Shaney. "What did you kick me for?" "Forden!"


    Forden was about to lose his temper when Santiago yelled. He immediately turned around and


    said, "I know."


    Suddenly, it was quiet. Jacqueline walked over to Forden and looked up. "Why are you wearing


    sunsses? There''s no sun."


    Jacqueline raised her hand to take off Forden''s sunsses, but he stopped her, "What do you think


    you''re doing?"


    "I''m helping you to take off your sunsses."


    "Don''t touch me. Go away."


    "Dad..."


    Jacqueline was upset and quickly walked towards Jacky. He picked up his daughter and looked at


    Forden. Then, he asked in a deep voice, "Kid, do you know the consequences if you upset my


    daughter?"


    Forden raised an eyebrow. "You''re Jacky?"


    "What? Did your father talked about me?"


    Forden looked over at Santiago, who was approaching them. "My father? You mean him?"


    "Yes."


    Jacky coaxed his daughter, causing the corners of


    Forden''s mouth to twitch, "What bad luck. I''m sorry, please forgive me!"


    Forden lowered his head and apologised. Raeleigh exined, "He''s been cheeky ever since he


    was a kid. His father spoiled him!"


    "I can tell! He really did spoil him."


    Jacky''s kicknded on Forden''s back leg. The force he exerted wasn''t heavy, but Forden was still


    quite young. Forden merely stumbled a little and did not fall to his knees.


    When Cedric and Heitor saw that Forden was at a disadvantage, they immediately rushed over to


    Forden''s side and tried to protect him.


    But then again, they did not dare to go against their father.


    Chaney could not take it. She looked up at Jacky and said, "Why did you kick my brother?"


    Jacky said, "He bullied my daughter."


    "Your daughter deserves it. She approached my brother first, now you''re ming him?"


    "Didn''t you kick him, too?"


    "Yes, I did, because he''s my brother. I have the right to do it, not you. Apologise now and swear...


    oh!"


    Just as Shaney talked, Santiago walked behind her and pped the back of her head. "Shut up!"


    Shaney turned around and wanted to say something, but Santiago frowned. Shaney immediately


    stopped talking and turned around to look at Raeleigh. Shaney reached out for her mother''s hand.


    Raeleigh lowered her head and Shaney gave her a kiss. "Mom, I missed you so much!"


    "I missed you too, sweetheart."


    Raeleigh hugged Shaney and gave her a kiss. Then, she released her daughter and looked over at


    Cedric and Heitor. They each gave Raeleigh a big hug. Then, they kissed Raeleigh''s cheek and


    Raeleigh returned the kiss.


    "We miss you."


    "Me too."


    It was quiet all around. Jepherson stood on one side, not knowing what to make of the situation. He


    walked over to Forden and knelt down to look at him. Then, he said, "Can you please take off your


    sunsses?"


    Forden looked at him and said, "You must be my uncle."


    Jepherson''s body trembled slightly. He could not believe that Santiago and Raeleigh had a child


    together.


    Forden took off his sunsses and Jepherson''s face instantly turned pale.


    Forden turned to look at Santiago, who was standing behind him. "This is your uncle, Uncle


    Jepherson," Santiago said.


    "I know, I greeted him."


    Forden said. Santiago ced his hand on his son''s head. He ruffled his son''s hair and looked over


    at Jacky and Deanna. "Hey guys, long time no


    _ _ _ IV see.


    "Ah?" Deanna was dumbfounded. Jacky handed his daughter over to Santiago. "This is Uncle


    Santiago."


    Santiago did not seem to have changed much. He reached out to take Jacqueline from Jacky''s


    hands. He smiled and said, "You must be Jacqueline."


    "That''s right."

    Jacqueline was a little shy. Santiago asked, "Jacqueline, what do you think of this boy?"


    Santiago kicked his son, Forden, softly in the bum. He was a little reluctant, but he did not dare to


    make a sound.


    There was only one person that Forden was afraid of in this entire world and that person was his


    father, Santiago.
