After breakfast, Jacky brought Deanna around Waverly Vige while Zorion brought Rossie to the university.


    As soon as he entered through the door, Zorion heard that Flynt got into a car ident at the entrance of Elkton University. Rumour had it that he was kidnapped.


    The school had already contacted the police under the suspicion that he was kidnapped.


    As the investigation was already underway, everyone in Capital City was jittery.


    Zorion stood at the entrance of Elkton University for a while. Many people around him were talking about this matter as Jepherson’s car pulled up.


    When Jepherson’s car came to a stop, Stuart got out of the car and opened the door. Jepherson alighted the car, dressed in a grey suit.


    As soon as Jepherson appeared, a reporter immediately came to interview him.However, Jepherson remained silent as he locked eyes with Zorion who was standing across from him. He walked out of the crowd and Stuart immediately stopped the reporter who wanted to follow him.


    After that, Jepherson walked through the door of Elkton University whileStuart stood guard outside, watchful of intruders.


    Rossie followed Zorion and Jepherson as the two strolled around, chatting with one another.


    Jepherson was calm andposed as they walked while Zorion smiled leisurely.


    “Why did Jacky do this?” Jepherson asked after walking for a while. Zorion hesitated before saying, “Deanna injured her hand.”


    Jepherson suddenly stopped and turned to look at Zorion. “Deanna’s hand is injured?”


    Zorion casted a nce at Jepherson.Although he was displeased, he did not hide his emotions.After telling him about what happened the day before,Jepherson fell silent for a moment. “You’re saying Jacky wants to avenge Deanna?”


    Zorion did not reply, but his silence sufficed as an answer.


    Jepherson pondered for a moment. “Since he did it for Deanna, I won’t interfere.”


    Zorion was silent. Jepherson thought of Raeleigh as he walked towards the ssroom. At this time, Raeleigh was in Xanthus’s office, helping him with a few tasks.


    “Are you nning to skip ss?” Xanthus had brought Raeleigh over to the university this morning. They had heard about what happened to Flynt as soon as they arrived.


    Raeleigh found it strange when she first heard about the incident. Xanthus was not suspicious of anything at first, but he could not help but feel that something was amiss when he noticed Raeleigh’s reaction.


    “Yes, I am.” Raeleigh organized the things in her hands, put them in order, and looked up at Xanthus which made himugh. “What’s on your mind?”


    “Nothing.”


    Though Raeleigh was quiet, she did see a group of people take Flynt away.


    At the time, Flynt had been knocked out cold.After seeing this from Xanthus’s car, Raeleigh had wanted to call the police, but immediately dismissed the idea when she saw the abductors looking at her.


    Since Flynt was Cynthia’s brother and she and Cynthia were friends, she could not just watch those people take Flynt away.


    Raeleigh sat at the desk, deep in her thoughts.However, she did not expect to think about Jepherson.


    Just as Raeleigh was about to talk, Jepherson coincidentally walked in from the outside.


    As soon as Raeleigh saw him, she immediately came back to her senses, her body tensing up.


    She was used to being afraid of him.


    “Am I interrupting?” Jepherson immediately asked as he stepped through the door.


    Raeleigh stood still asXanthus took a look at them and walked aside. “What can I do for you, Mr. Richards?”


    “I asked whether I was interrupting and you’re asking me what can you do for me? Do you not understand words or is your brain not working?” Jepherson asked indifferently. He looked away from Raeleigh and walked towards Xanthus.


    Xanthus subconsciously looked at Raeleigh, who walked towards him. She knew better than anyone else how Jepherson’s temper was like.


    They were currently in Xanthus’s office andRaeleigh did not want Jepherson to cause trouble here.


    “Mr. Richards, you look rather moody today.” Xanthus was worried that Raeleigh would be frightened, so he spoke in a more polite tone.


    Jepherson stopped. “You are fired, effectively immediately. The school will pay for all losses.”


    “As a qualified school doctor, you spend your working hours messing with women in your office. It’s a neglect of duty as a school doctor!”


    “Jepherson, you’re being unreasonable! What are you talking about? We’re…”


    Xanthus pulled Raeleigh behind her. “Raeleigh, I got this. Please keep quiet.”


    Raeleigh looked up at Xanthus and suddenly fell into silence.Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.


    “What are you going to do?” Jepherson’s expression turned cold. Raeleigh stood behind Xanthus without saying a word.As Jepherson was running on sheer anger, it was useless to say anything.


    Xanthus took out the stethoscope from his neck, rolled it up, and put it in his pocket. He took off his white coat and tossed it aside. Turningaround, he looked at Raeleigh. “Raeleigh, why don’t you go out and wait for me? I’ll be out in a few.”


    “You two…”


    “Nothing will happen. I just have to rify a few things with him.”


    “Fine, I’ll wait for you outside.” Raeleigh nced at Jepherson before looking back at Xanthus. Xanthus then motioned for Raeleigh to go outside.


    “Stay,” Jepherson called out at Raeleigh, but his words fell on deaf ears as she continued walking out the room.


    “Let’s talk. I want to make things clear once and for all.” After Raeleigh left, Xanthus turned around and stared at Jepherson. Jepherson chuckled mockingly. “We’re married. What’s there to talk about? You should leave, now!”


    “You want me to leave? Fine!” Xanthus nced at his belongings.Lowering his head, hewalked around his office as he gathered them calmly. Jepherson stood there, staring at the door.


    In truth, he did note here to fire Xanthus.


    He hade only to look for Raeleigh, but…


    “Alright, I’ve packed my things. Since Elkton University no longer needs me, I’ll officially tender my resignation. ording to our rules of practicing medicine, I cannot resign without notice. It’d be known as patient abandonment.I hope that you can make it clear to the university that you were the one who dismissed me, effective immediately.”


    “I’ll be on my way!”


    Xanthus picked up his things and was ready to leave when Jepherson turned to look at him. “What goes on between Raeleigh and I has nothing to do with you. You ought to leave her alone.”


    Xanthus stopped at the door, but he did not look back. “Honestly, I couldn’t care less about what is going on between you two. I just really want to know whether she’s my sister. I believe that you have the right to like her, but you have no right to hurt her.”
