Chapter 997 Stood Firmly by Her Words

"Jepherson followed her into the house, changed into house slippers, and greeted Novalie before walking into the kitchen, washing his hands, and helping to prepare lunch."

"It was sunny at noon, but the lighting in Raeleigh's kitchen was not bright enough. They stayed quietly in the kitchen. No one spoke as they focused on their own tasks."

"Novalie closed her eyes, sitting cross-legged on the couch. She narrowed her eyes and pressed her hands against her legs."

She was not curious about what was going on in the kitchen. She was thinking about Xanthus. She was afraid that he had malicious intentions!

"Soon, lunch was served. Raeleigh and Jepherson took turns serving the food on the table. Raeleigh called Novalie over while Jepherson washed his hands and followed them to the dining table, sitting down one after another. Jepherson set up Novalie's cutlery, acting as if he was at home. He treated her like how he treated Marissa."
