Go After My Ex-wife -
Chapter 847 Listen To Her Opinion
"I've had enough." Raeleigh dabbed at her mouth, and she then put down the napkin.
"Hmm, you haven't had much." Having said that, Jepherson stood up, walked over to Raeleigh, and once again offered her his hand. She stood up from her seat, but did not take his hand.
"Let's go," said Raeleigh as she moved forward to leave. Jepherson followed after her.
Outside the door, Jepherson said to Raeleigh, "You're going to have to stay over at my place tonight. I wonder whether you are scared or not?"
Raeleigh looked at Jepherson and said, "You could send me back."
"If we go back now, then who knows what will happen tomorrow. Maybe the entrance of Capital University will be packed with people, just to watch you make the walk of shame. Even it we don't go back, it's fine. If we go back and you get out of the car in the middle of the night, what would the consequences be?"
Raeleigh pursed her lips. As she listened to Jepherson's words, every word he had just uttered made a good point, leaving no room for refusal.
He was right. Who knew how many people had probably gathered at the school gate to make fun of her? Surely, Quirina will not miss this opportunity to be there either.
If the university disciplinary board were involved in this, then there would be severe consequences.
If Quirina requested the university to expel her, even with a scholarship, then it would not protect her from expulsion.
"Take me to a hotel then." Raeleigh meant to stay there by herself, but Jepherson followed her.
The car stopped at the back entrance of a magnificent hotel. Stuart got out of the car and went towards the back seat to open the door. Jepherson got out of the car and offered his arm to Raeleigh. She looked out and thought to herself, "Isn't this such a luxurious place?"
Raeleigh said with unwillingness in her eyes, "I don't have the money to stay at such a place. You'd better drive me to another place."
"There's no need to pay her as this is my family's place." That time, instead of waiting for her to get out of the car, Jepherson grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the car.
Unsteadily, Raeleigh fell into Jepherson's arms. Just as she was about to raise her head, Jepherson adjusted his position and covered Raeleigh's face with his clothes. For the time being, he didn't want to reveal her identity to the outside world. He was very careful in everything he did.
Raeleigh generally understood his intentions and did not struggle.
Jepherson lowered his eyes and looked at the quiet little lass in his arms. This was nice. With one arm around Raeleigh's shoulders, he tapped it lightly and they walked together into the hotel.
At the front desk, the manager and the two other department heads of the hotel had already been notified about the visit and had come personally to invite them in. When they saw Jepherson enter, they bowed their heads and followed after him.
It was already late into the night when the hotel received the order. They immediately cleaned up the place where Jepherson was going to stay and promptly left afterwards. No one was allowed to enter the suite.
Of course, in order to avoid news of this getting out to the public, the hotel had been very professional.
They cleared the hallways using the brilliant idea of informing guests of a lucky draw, which required them to return to their rooms to check and see if they had won. This was why not a single soul was to be seen as Jepherson walked down the hallways of the hotel.
The manager walked Jepherson to the door of the private elevator and bowed slightly. Jepherson led Raeleigh into the elevator and patted her gently twice.
Raeleigh wanted to come out from under the jacket after the door of the elevator closed shut. Just as she moved, she heard his voice saying, "There's a camera in here." Raeleigh became quiet again and started to feel depressed. "When would they finally arrive, how high were they going and why was the elevator taking so long?" She thought. While Raeleigh was waiting in silence, the elevator stopped. After a long pause, the elevator doors opened up and Jepherson led her out. After a few more steps, the door of the room on the highest floor of the Harvey family hotel was opened and Raeleigh was escorted in.
After Stuart closed the door, Jepherson let Raeleigh go and turned on the lights.
Raeleigh felt that the sudden switching on of the lights was too bright for her eyes. It took her a long time to squint her eyes open and move her hands away from her eyes. However, the magnificent scene in front of her made Raeleigh lose herself in her thoughts for a moment.
Raeleigh had never been to such a luxurious place. It wouldn't suffice just to describe it as being glorious. After all, it had been designed with much care, with attention to detail, and very cleverly too. It was evident that the designer had taken special care in designing this room, and had been going for a casual and elegant effect.
Raeleigh took a few steps forward and started to admire the room in front of her. Jepherson did not disturb her. He stood behind her and elegantly stared at the person in front of him.
This hotel was the very first startup business venture of the Harvey family in Capital City. It was not to make money, but to entertain guests. The Harvey family mansion in Capital City was the private residence of the Harvey family. Although it was good for visitors, they did not like to be disturbed by outsiders. For this reason, Jepherson's father, Calvin, had deliberately built a hotel in Capital City to entertain his business clients.
And it was such that the Harvey Group had a stronghold within the hotel industry, and the hotel became the main attraction of Capital City.
The design here was made from the combination of many new elements of design as well as Jepherson's parents' own input of ideas. The project of designing the top floor had been handed over to Jepherson to manage.
Even though he had only been 16 years old back then, till then, his design concept hadn't been surpassed by anyone else. This was something even his mother, Belle, completely agreed with, and had sung praises about him. To have had such achievements at such a tender age, it was only a matter of time before anything came out of the blue.
Presently, Jepherson's achievements had surpassed even his mother's aptitude. This was the reason he was able to gain a firm foothold in the Harvey Group. Calvin had high hopes for him. If it weren't for his capability and skill, then he wouldn't have been given the position of vice president so Tristany in his career.
Compared to the other son of the Harvey family, Calvin could only place his bets on Jepherson. Calvin, who had always been wise and shrewd, couldn't he possibly be wrong about this.
Raeleigh admired it for a while longer and she then turned to look at Jepherson standing at the door. He smiled gently at her and said, "It's an element designed in the earlier years. Although I made some changes last year, it's basically the same. You're the top student in the design department. You should have higher requirements in this respect. I really want to hear your thoughts."
Raeleigh was slightly stunned. She hadn't expected that it would've been Jepherson who designed this place. For a moment, she was surprised. At the same time, she hadn't expected that Jepherson would ask her for her opinion.
Jepherson walked towards Raeleigh and was one step away from her before he stopped. Then, he looked up at the ceiling of the room and also looked back at Raeleigh. His handsome eyebrows twitched a little. The roof was designed to be opened to the sky. However, due to the soundproofing device and the fact that no one lived here, the open-air design was not utilized. As everyone knew, the open-air design would have a certain effect on the overall concept of its aesthetic. Therefore, the design of the roof was very special. It was flat without any decorations. The rhombus square was also proof of the unique mind of the designer, making up for the fault in the open-air design.
But even so, the design of the roof still couldn't be compared with the design of the room.
That was why...
From Raeleigh's point of view, Jepherson's design was not perfect enough. At least that was what she thought.
