Chapter 901: Chapter 903

Rae’s face became hotter. She was very shy, as she pushed him away. “Don’t sit so close to me!”

Marcel propped his hands on each side of her body, lowering his head as he watched her, his eyes filled with a devilish seductiveness.

Rae looked at him, meeting his eyes.

His pupils were pitch black, the bottom of his eyes churned with a darkness she could not see through.

Yet, she did not care.

From when she met him again, she was already in a daze, she could not let go.

Loving him was an obsession.

It was a desperate love that could not turn back!

She had nowhere to run!

In the morning, when the first ray of sunshine shone in the bedroom through the curtains, Rae woke up. She opened her eyes, feeling that the weather today was extraordinarily well!

She was Marcel’s girlfriend now!

He had left very late last night, without making any further moves. He merely iced her face for her, checked her foot, and then he left!

Rae began to take leave today, and she did not plan to go outside.

She got up and got herself ready. She looked at herself in the mirror, the swelling on her face had gone down, the handprints were no longer visible.

Her face was beautiful as usual, she smiled at the mirror. Her smile was dazzling, it was no longer the forced smile from before!

Yet she still felt surreal, how had Marcel just become her boyfriend?

After she washed up herself, she thought of Raphael!

She looked at the opposite balcony, Raphael had moved here. Raphael might be going to prison afterwards, and she began to worry again!

No, she must go out. She would go to find the best lawyer to defend Raphael!

After she tidied up, she limped downstairs. She had not made it to the stairway, when she saw a slender figure walking this way.

It was Marcel.

Rae was a little uneasy, she did not know how to greet him.

What should she call him?

Captain Hopkins?

Marcel?

Senior?!

Nothing seemed to work at all!

She was hesitating, and he had already greeted her. “Why did you come down again? Didn’t I tell you that you should rest and recover? Would you like to move to my place, so I can watch over you?”

Rae’s face reddened, as she replied, “No need! Why have you come?”

Marcel looked at her, and shook the bag in his hand.

Then only Rae found that he had a bag in his hand, it looked like breakfast!

“I haven’t eaten breakfast, I bought some for us to eat together!” He explained, “Don’t you tell me that you’ve already ate, even if you did you should accompany me to eat as well. Further, isn’t eating breakfast together the most normal and common thing between couples?”

Rae was shocked, was this not too standard?

This was as if they were in a textbook relationship!

But Rae still felt a bit surprised, as he had become official today! He became her boyfriend!

Yet, she was still a bit unused to this.

Who was she, to be dating a male god?

“What are you thinking? Hurry and come up!” Marcel already held onto Rae’s hand, pulling her upstairs.

Rae stunned and had to follow.

His hand was so large, it completely covered her tiny hand. His well-built frame was right before her. His hair was soft and a few stuck out slightly, showing that there was still recklessness within his neatness.

She followed his purposedly slowed down steps upstairs, and she opened the door as he watched. He spoke in a low voice, “Give me one of your keys here. Also, move immediately when your foot has recovered! Either you move in with me, or you find another place! I don’t think it’s safe here!”

Rae wanted to move away from early on, but after she injured her foot, she had lost her strength. Now even as she wanted to move, she could not move.

“Alright, I’ll find a place to move myself!” Rae answered lightly.

They went into the house, Marcel went to find some plates and put away the things.

He bought some crystal shrimp dumplings, some soup dumplings, and a few side dishes and two hot drinks.

Rae wanted to help out but he refused. “You sit down and don’t move, just eat! If I’m free in the afternoon, I’ll bring food for you! Your foot hasn’t recovered so you shouldn’t run around. Also, what were you going to do just now?”

Rae looked at him, her heart felt warm. She decided not to lie to him. “I want to find the best lawyer to defend Raphael! Raphael...”

At the mention of Raphael, Marcel’s expression dimmed following it. He interrupted her coldly, “Raphael was that important, so important that you would give up your foot for him?”

“Also, you’re hiring a lawyer for him?” He raised his abnormally handsome face, his eyes had a carefree, casual look in them. Yet the words he spoke from his thin lips were extremely cruel, “What good lawyer can you hire? What famous lawyer isn’t in the legal department of the Gill Group? That you have to go hire?”

Saying this, he walked over and sat down before Rae. His expression at that moment was extremely attractive, but his tone was even more hurtful, “I’m telling you that no matter whom you hire it would be the same, Raphael would either be sentenced to death or a life imprisonment!”

Rae was shaken to the core.

She was a little disbelieving, “Raphael is my friend, I just don’t want him to be so pitiful! This is what I should do for a friend, how do I know that it’s impossible without trying hard first? There are indeed many talents in the legal department at the Gill Group, but they only listen to Mathew and wouldn’t do anything for Raphael at all, that’s why I’m so worried!”

Marcel saw her like this, and his tone softened a little. “Are you sure that you and Raphael are just friends?”

“Of course we’re just friends!” Rae was a bit flustered. “What do you mean?”

“Why are you so concerned about Raphael, yet so fierce towards me?” Marcel’s tone had a bit of jealousy in it.

Rae was instantly taken aback. “You, surely you can’t be jealous?”

Raphael’s face reddened, “What are you saying? Do I need to? Isn’t he just your childhood friend? You can go get a few lawyers from your Baxter family and form a team of lawyers to defend Raphael, maybe he would have another outcome!”

“The Baxter family?” Rae repeated the words silently, should she go?

“Yes, your family!” Marcel replied.

Rae lowered her head. After a long while, she nodded, “This is a good idea!”

“Then now, girlfriend, don’t you have any awareness? Your boyfriend, I am still hungry!” Marcel really could not bear to see the way she worried over other men, it was too frustrating!

Rae heard his words, and realised immediately. “Sorry, let’s eat, let’s eat!”

She was thinking of how to go back and talk to Leonard. She knew that once she asked, Leonard would surely agree!

Indeed, after Rae ate and sent Marcel away, she returned to the Baxter family home.

Leonard had not gone to work yet, he was reading the newspapers in his hands. Seeing Rae come back, he was very surprised. “Has my daughter come back?”

Minnie immediately ran out. “You’re back, Rae? Is your foot better?”

“Yes!” Rae nodded.

She walked towards Leonard, thought about it, and finally spoke. “Dad!”

Leonard’s eyes widened, she had called him dad recently, she seemed less hostile than before!

“Yes? Rae, sit down!” Leonard saw that she seemed to be in need. He immediately put down his papers and said, “Tell me, what’s wrong?”

Rae was silent.

“You must surely need something if you’re back. If I’m not mistaken, it has been more than five years. Ever since your car accident, you’ve never asked me to help you with anything, this is the first time since these five years! Tell me, I’ll surely help you!” Leonard had the expression of a caring father.

Rae felt that she had wronged him.

“I would like to use the lawyers from the legal department of our family, can I?” Rae asked.

Leonard paused slightly, asking, “What do you want to do?”

“To defend for Raphael!” Rae answered briefly.

Hearing this, Leonard did not seem surprised at all. He pushed the newspapers forward, pointing at one of the headlines, he asked Rae. “What was written on here, is it true?”

Rae lowered her head and looked, seeing the printed title on it.

The Gill family deep in crisis, its leader troubled by a criminal case.

Below, the contents were the report and conspiracies of the entire case. Rae was shocked, how would the press know in such detail? The police were not allowed give out these details, especially when this concerns the reputation of Gill Group!

Yet, it was still all known, now it was almost exposed to the entire world.

Thinking of the colleagues at the police station that could not keep the secrets of a special case, Rae felt chilled to the bone. She wondered if Marcel knew about it, and if he knew how would he react?

Rae took a look, turning her gaze she looked Leonard and nodded. “The most of what’s reported is true!”

Leonard went silent.

Rae waited, not knowing what Leonard meant. She was afraid that Leonard would refuse, because if this happened, by her abilities she could not find a suitable lawyer at all. No matter what, she had five years of affection towards Raphael, she was a person who would repay her gratitude!

But it was reasonable for Leonard to refuse, since she had been awful towards him for these five years and also disrespectful. Only for these few months, when she found that the thing that she wanted was not in the Baxter family, she had an abnormal emotion towards this person. She did not know how to resist him, as every time no matter how intense and how awful she was, he remained the same. Loving and tolerant! It was as if a punch had landed on some cotton, completely soundless!

Until today, whenever she thought that she was influenced by Leonard just like this, Rae would still feel flustered.

She tried hard to not think about it, as whenever she thought so she would owe more apology towards her father, Kane.

Rae saw that Leonard was silent for a long time, so she spoke. “If you’re unwilling to help then forget it, forget that I’ve asked!”

Her face was sullen, as she turned and wanted to walk away.

“Wait!” But Leonard called out to her.

Rae stopped, looking at him.

Leonard looked at Rae, his eyes remained loving, even a little touched a comforted. He suddenly laughed while nodding, “Yes! Indeed, you’re my daughter! So kind that you didn’t hate Raphael even until today, and even wanted to try help! Alright! Even if it’s only based on this, I will still fully support you!”

Rae was in shock, she was very surprised!

Leonard continued, “That bloodied shirt, that one in your room, that was left by Raphael at our house?”

Rae had always known that Leonard was actually very sharp, or else he would not have been able to develop the Baxter family to this extent. She looked at Leonard and did not lie, nodding seriously.

“This boy is rather smart, but he was a little unlucky, actually murdering someone! Luckily we didn’t promise to marry into their home, or else my daughter would have been doomed!” Leonard slapped the table. Seeing that Rae was looking at him in puzzlement, he explained, “What I meant was, I didn’t allow you to marry him wasn’t because he was suspected or murder, but was because he had messy relationships! It was written here that he had ties with the same woman that his father was related to, is it true?”

Rae did not speak, but she agreed silently! She was just quite surprised at Leonard’s mindset!

Then, Leonard continued, “As our old neighbour, I have to help him as well, just that our family can never have marital ties with his family afterwards!

Rae, you must now when you’ve chosen a man, you should never choose a playboy! A playboy can never change out of his habit the entire life! Men should be capable, but they should also have integrity! You should never accept a man without integrity, no matter how much you like him!”

These words were indeed true!
