Chapter 1803 Truly His Daughter
Chapter 1803 Truly His Daughter
Raeleigh smiled when she saw Austin. "How have you been?"
Austin was reading a notebook. When he heard Raeleigh's words, he put the notebook down and
raised his head to look at her, "You came at this hour?"
"Calvinchel Doyle can't live."
"It's been arranged."
"Thank you."
"Is there anything else?"
"Mm..."
Austin pointedly diverted his gaze to a spot by his side. Once Raeleigh situated herself beside him, he
switched on the computer. It was a security feed, and recorded within was a large group of people. She
noticed that out of all the people who were raining blows, one of them with his back towards the
camera was Stuart, and the one who was bleeding out on the ground was Calvinchel.
Raeleigh looked at Austin. "Thank you so much for doing this. Otherwise, I have to restrain Stuart from
taking action out in public."
"The Doyle family was exterminated because of one woman. It's not worth it."
"Then how does one get over Lucy's undeserved tragic demise?"
Austin leaned to one side, his eyes on her, "Have you thought over what I said?"
Raeleigh shook her head. "No, I haven't."
"Then forget it."
Raeleigh looked back at Austin, "You mean..."
"Since you still can't let go of the burdens in your heart, then forget it. I won't force you."
Raeleigh breathed a sigh of relief. "Then my child?"
"I'll keep the child."
Raeleigh stiffened for a moment, then came to her senses after a while. "That's not what you said."
"That was the past, we're talking about the present. You don't need to take my words as truth."
Raeleigh sat rigidly in her seat. Austin stood up. "Don't leave tonight," he advised.
After that, Austin went to take a bath. Raeleigh sat stock still in the same spot. After Austin finished his
bath, she stood up and went to another area with him.
Through a door, Raeleigh paused as she took in the scene in front of her. Three little children talked
amongst each other within the quiet courtyard. Numerous stars twinkled from above and within a
house, someone was keeping an eye out on them.
At the sound of the door being opened, three little heads swivelled around and saw Raeleigh coming in
with Austin. A little girl broke away from the group and dashed barefoot towards her, her hands raised
in a wordless request for a hug.
Raeleigh bent down and scooped her daughter up into her arms. She kissed her chubby little cheeks,
her eyes red-rimmed from tears as a few trailed helplessly down her face.
The Osteen couple came out from inside the house just then. When Jazelle saw Raeleigh, she couldn't
help but cry too.
With her daughter in her arms, she carried her to a bed that was inside. The little girl didn't want to
separate from Raeleigh, her small arms tight around her neck, "Mum, please don't go." she pleaded.
"Mum also wants to stay, but if mum doesn't go back, then there will be a huge mess."
"Okay then..."
She was so anxious that the little girl cried together with Jazelle.
Cedric and Heitor, who had been preparing to go to bed, stared at Raeleigh and Shaney.
They also got down from their bed and stood in front of Raeleigh, their eyes fixed on her. It was only
when Raeleigh saw them that she loosened her hold on her daughter.
The little girl stayed in her embrace all this while, whereas the two boys continued to stare at Raeleigh.
Austin sat down to one side, as well as Lamar and Jazelle.
Raeleigh held her daughter and gave her a smooch. "I can stay tonight."
"Then will mum leave the next morning?"
"This..."
"Mum, if you stay for a few more days, then I'll let you go."
As a result...
Raeleigh stayed for five days and did not return. Meanwhile Jepherson managed to narrow down his Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
search after much effort and tracked her down to the Green House prison.
"He's coming." Austin stood outside, his gaze on Raeleigh and the rest. Raeleigh was momentarily
stunned from the announcement, then she looked at Austin and reminded, "Remember that you
promised me, you wouldn't..."
Austin turned away from her. "As I said before, don't take my words for truth. I have never promised
anyone anything."
"Then what do you want?"
"I haven't decided yet."
"Mum, who is coming?" The little girl raised her head to look at her mother, who then replied, "A man
called Dad."
The little girl made an 'oh' expression in realisation. She climbed down from Raeleigh's hold and pulled
on Austin's hand. "Uncle, I want to see my dad."
"..." Raeleigh was a little at a loss for words. The way she said it, it was like they were going to look at
animals.
Austin paid no heed to Raeleigh's protests. He bent down at the waist, took the little girl into his arms,
straightened back up and headed for the entrance. Raeleigh, who was a little worried, followed in their
wake.
By the time she decided to follow them, both Austin and her daughter were already on the observation
platform.
Both weren't wearing much as they looked down from up above. Austin whispered a few words into
Shaney's ears, who let out a little 'oh' in reply. Afterwards, she followed him to where everyone down
below could see them. The two hands that were carrying her then held her high above the observation
platform.
Shaney burst out into tears. Jared looked up at the sound and saw someone at the top who had held a
child above their heads, who was crying loudly.
"Jepherson."
Jared turned and knocked on the car window. At this moment, Jepherson also sensed that something
was wrong. He immediately opened the door and got out, his head raised upwards to where the
platform was. As it wasn't that far above the ground, plus the child had grown quite big, he was able to
get a clear look. Jepherson stilled, his figure turned to stone for an instant, before his gaze met
Austin's.
"Austin, you f**king come down now."
It was the first time that Jared heard Jepherson swear at someone. Austin took it in a stride, for there
wasn't a man who wouldn't know how to swear at people.
Shaney wailed loudly, her little legs flailing about everywhere the harder she cried. Raeleigh caught up
just then and shouted, "Austin, what are you doing?"
Jepherson could faintly hear the sound of Raeleigh's voice break from her shouts, which made him
even more anxious.
"Come down, Austin."
Soon after, Austin tossed the child straight out, only for someone at the side to reach out and catch her.
This was their little brat, it would really be a big deal if she actually did fall.
The person hurriedly readjusted his hold on the child, which was made pointless as Raeleigh instantly
snatched Shaney away into her embrace. Shaney was all smiles, curled up in her mother's hold. The
child may be young still, but she was bright for her age and was actually quite mischievous.
Raeleigh was scared to death. She wanted to beat Austin up but was reluctant to do so.
All she could do instead was hold her tight in her protective embrace.
Austin stood atop and looked down at Jepherson. "Kneel. If you do, I won't kill your daughter today."
Jepherson's face was a mask of impotent fury as he stood below. He didn't move or speak.
Austin turned to the side, "Give me the child."
Raeleigh shook her head and turned around to leave.
Someone barred her way. Then people came forward and forcefully took Shaney away from her.
Raeleigh wanted to reach out but was once again stopped by someone.
With Shaney in his hands, Austin lifted her up high as if he was going to throw her down. Shaney
started to wail loudly once more. Jepherson gnashed his teeth and yelled out, "Austin, I'll kneel!"
Austin chuckled, "Since you agreed, it isn't such a novelty anymore. But don't worry, I won't throw the
child down."
With that said, he took the child away. He flicked a glance Raeleigh's way, then proceeded to go past
her towards the back. Raeleigh spun on her heel, her furious glare drilled into his back. Shaney
reached out her hands, her little fingers clenched and released towards Raeleigh. She wanted her
mother
After they walked down from the platform, Austin passed Shaney over to Raeleigh. She held her
daughter tight in her embrace for a while, only then did she follow him back.
Outside, Jephersoon stood frozen with his head drenched in cold sweat.
"Jared, immediately surround the Green House prison, don't even let one fly out."
Jared paused, "This is the government's jurisdiction..."
"No matter who it is, they have no right to take my daughter hostage inside."
"Are you sure?" Jared asked.
"More than anything in my life."
Although there was quite a distance between them, Jepherson was absolutely sure that the child was
his daughter. His and Raeleigh's daughter.
