Chapter 1257 Eaten Dry

"Raeleigh and Xanthus had been reading books for the whole afternoon inside the room. Then, Raeleigh fell asleep. Xanthus then placed some medicinal herbs on her knee, and Xanthus then fell asleep while keeping an eye on Raeleigh."

"It was late when he woke up. Xanthus got up to prepare dinner. The door was locked, so Raeleigh stayed in the room and didn't go out. Even if Jepherson wanted to come in, he couldn't."

"Things were busy downstairs. After Scarlette knocked several times on the door, Raeleigh still remained silent. She stood at the door and called out to her, ""Raeleigh, please open the door."""

"Raeleigh didn't answer. Instead, she read a book about Shakespeare."

"Raeleigh, are you in there?"

"Raeleigh knew Scarlette was standing outside the whole time, but didn't she didn't go out. Scarlette soon gave up and went downstairs."

Xanthus ordered takeout for dinner. He didn't want to eat with so many people around.
