Chapter 1568 A Life for A Life

"A life for a life. Raeleigh believed that Austin had sacrificed his life in exchange for hers, and because of that, she could not sleep well nor do anything properly."

"When Jepherson saw that Raeleigh had finally closed her eyes, he opened the shades and turned on all the lights with the remote control. Then, he opened the skylight on the roof to reveal an artificial night sky. Staring at the sky full of stars above them, he lay down and turned over to hold Raeleigh, placing a kiss on her cheek."

"Raeleigh didn't move nor resist. However, when Jepherson tightened his embrace, her breathing grew rapid and nervous. "

"Jepherson patted her gently. The more nervous she was, the more he was unwilling to let her go. He remained silent as he held her close to his chest."

"Eventually, Raeleigh's body relaxed and she fell asleep. Jepherson tightened his arms around her once more. Whenever she stirred, he immediately loosened his grip."
