Chapter 1742 Jared Walked Over
Chapter 1742 Jared Walked Over
Jared got out of the car and walked toward Raeleigh's direction. Upon seeing Jared, Crevor nodded his
head at him. Jared found it sarcastic and said, "Do me a favor and stay the f*ck out of this matter, will
you?"
Crevor's gaze darkened. "Where are your manners?"
Jared was about to leave. Hearing Crevor's words, he turned around and stared at Crevor. With an
extremely provocative smile, he approached Crevor arrogantly.
"Well, my attitude depends on who I'm talking to and you're just a lowly lackey in my eyes. How can I
be polite to you?"
As Jared spoke, he had already walked up to Crevor, who then laughed. "Only mad dogs keep barking
at people everywhere."
With that, Crevor turned and left. Jared's eyes narrowed while he watched Crevor's back as he
returned to the car. Subsequently, Jared placed his fists behind his back and clenched them.
Raeleigh stood by the window downstairs of the company, looking at Jared. She was accompanied by
her assistant, who asked, "Miss Anson, is there any enmity Mr. Robertson and Mr. Doyle?"
"I'm not sure."
Turning around, Raeleigh walked toward the exclusive elevator. Her heart ached at the thought of
Santiago.
If Stella had hurt him, then Crevor's appearance would not be simple.
It was impossible for the Doyle family to be unaware of what Stella had been doing, yet they allowed
her to conduct her plans. What did it indicate?
In fact, the Doyle family had always treated the Harvey family as their rival. Although it was Hudson
who helped the Doyle family in those days, it was actually a trap. This trap was plotted with the purpose
of murdering Hudson's whole family. In such way, how could the Doyle family have mercy on the
Harvey family?
Nobody could make flawless plans. What the Doyle family had been worrying about was that Hudson Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
would turn the tide and drag the Doyle family's name through the mire by revealing what had happened
in the past.
Thus, the Doyle family continued to exhaust them, not allowing the Harvey family to have an easy time
of it. They did it again and again.
While Raeleigh was entering the elevator, Jared came in from outside the company. He shot a glance
at Raeleigh and followed her.
When Raeleigh arrived upstairs, she received a call from Jepherson.
"Crevor came to you?"
Jepherson's didn't sound very pleased. It turned out that in his absence, Crevor had left Capital City
stealthily and gone to Raeleigh's side. Jepherson didn't see it coming.
Crevor had been stalling for time on his side and had gone to look for Raeleigh at the same time.
No one could tell what Crevor's goals were.
"Yes, we met once by chance."
"Raeleigh, you don't know who he is?"
"..."
Raeleigh didn't answer. Jepherson said, "Jared was too careless."
"I knew he would come to me sooner or later, but I didn't expect him to act so swiftly."
"I have things that need to be dealt with here."
"I don't need you to come here. I'll handle it myself."
"Raeleigh, don't come into contact with Crevor anymore. He's..."
Raeleigh hung up without waiting for him to finish.
Holding his phone tightly, Jepherson sat on the bed and called Xanthus.
Xanthus was on his way to Maverly when he answered the call. Maverly happened to turn around and
see Xanthus. She left Jacian's side and walked over.
Xanthus's expression changed when he heard what Jepherson said. He couldn't help saying, "The
chauffeur called me this morning. I have something to ask you. What did Jared do on the day you left?
Why didn't he send Raeleigh home? Why did she come back in Crevor's car?"
Jepherson's hand twitched. "What did you say?"
"You should ask Jared about what I said."
Xanthus's heart was still beating furiously after hanging up. A few minutes later, he looked at Maverly.
"Cancel all my agendas and schedules for now. I'm taking a leave."
"For how long?"
Maverly had to know how long he needed her to ask for a leave on his behalf.
"Indefinitely."
Xanthus turned around and left. As he walked, he took off his coat and tossed it aside. Maverly took his
coat and chased after him with it, but she was not able to catch up with him.
By the time Maverly went out, Xanthus had already driven away.
Someone knocked on the door while Raeleigh was reading the files. Her assistant ran over and opened
the door to find that it was Xanthus.
"Dr. Osteen?"
The assistant recognized who he was.
"Where's Raeleigh?"
"She's inside."
The assistant stepped aside whereas Xanthus walked in. Raeleigh was also surprised when he
entered. She looked up at him. "What's wrong?"
"Did someone from the Doyle family come?" Xanthus asked her. Raeleigh had also guessed what was
going on. She replied, "Whether the people from the Doyle family come or not has nothing to do with
me. After all, they needed to earn a living. Their business has nothing to do with ours."
"Do you think their appearance has nothing to do with you?" Xanthus was apprehensive rather than
angry and most of his anger was due to Jared.
If it weren't for Jared, Raeleigh wouldn't have met Crevor.
Raeleigh looked at her assistant. "I don't have anything else for you. You can leave now."
The assistant turn around and left. When the door closed, Raeleigh stood up and walked toward
Xanthus. "Did you put your work aside and come to me just because of this little thing?"
"You are too careless in everything."
Raeleigh felt the urge to laugh. She replied, "Actually, our life spans are destined. If I'm fated to live for
a short time, it can't be altered no matter how cautious I am.
Maybe the appearance of the Doyle family is really a coincidence?"
"If it's a coincidence, I will give up being a doctor."
Xanthus firmly did not believe that Crevor's appearance was a coincidence. He had done his
homework. Crevor was in Capital City before this. Why did he suddenly come here?
Raeleigh smiled disapprovingly. She took a fruit that had been washed by the assistant and placed it in
Xanthus's hand. "Here's an apple to settle your nerves. There's nothing big deal. I can even handle that
intractable Jepherson, never mind the Doyle family. Am I right?"
Xanthus was amused and vexed simultaneously by Raeleigh that he didn't know whether to laugh or
cry. He glanced at her sitting there. Though he didn't eat the apple in his hand, he sat beside Raeleigh.
"Are you not leaving?" Raeleigh became curious when she saw that he had no intention of leaving. It
was only then did Xanthus put down the apple. "I can't be at ease when there's nobody to stay by your
side and protect you."
"Even if you are by my side, you are no match for them if they really want to take action against me.
Xanthus... I've already grown up. Just let me face these things by myself. I don't think those people can
do anything to me. Believe it or not, I can protect myself and not let anyone hurt me."
"I don't believe it." Xanthus was so resolute that Raeleigh almost burst into laughter. In the end, she
failed to persuade him, so she didn't say anything else.
After getting off work, Raeleigh and Xanthus had dinner outside before they went back. After getting
into the car, Raeleigh told Xanthus that she was a little tired and dizzy. Then, she fell asleep in the car.
They drove to the innermost part of the manor. Xanthus got out from the car and woke Raeleigh up.
She opened her eyes and leaned against the seat, not getting out of the car. Instead, she rested briefly.
When she got out of the car, Jared happened to walk over.
