Chapter 367

“He was probably confined by Arnaud’s men.”

In no time, the call was connected. Surprisingly, Rayna handed the phone to Jefferson. “You talk to him.”

Then she went upstairs.

With the phone in his hand, Jefferson went over to the window.

On the other end of the phone, Ringo questioned upon hearing Rayna’s remark, “What did Ms. Garland want to say, Sir? Have you taken the medicine?”

“No. Arnaud’s men blew up the lab,” Jefferson said, his lips quirked up. “She promised to return to Yartran with me to fight for the Terblanc family’s succession rights.”

Such shock flooded Ringo that his face drained of all color. “The medicine is gone? What about your illness, Sir?”

“It’s okay. I’m taking enzyme inhibitors every day. And with her by my side, I won’t die that quickly. Arnaud tampered with my passport. I need you to help me resolve it.”

“Okay. I’ll settle that in a while,” Ringo answered. In the next heartbeat, his sigh came through the phone, and he cautioned, “Sir, you’ll definitely be in danger if you come back and fight for the succession rights with him.”

“It doesn’t matter. Most importantly, she’s by my side.”

Jefferson wasn’t bothered by that in the least. He looked at the moonlight outside the window, his gaze tender.

Ringo was exceedingly efficient. In just two days, the issue of Jefferson’s passport had been resolved.

Rayna contacted the landlord to discuss terminating the lease. After booking the flight tickets, she packed the things in the house with Jefferson.

In truth, they hadn’t much, and two suitcases were already sufficient to accommodate everything.

After breakfast, Rayna noticed the sun shining brightly outside. She said to Jefferson, “I’m going out to buy some things later.”

“I’ll go with you.” Jefferson was worried since she was with a child.
