"Shaylee was eating with Adriel, the heir of New Island Real Estate. When we left, she reminded us not to spread it around, but she was photographed by paparazzi and hit the headlines that afternoon." Raymond glanced at the chat history of Scarlett and Alexis.

They went back to the villa after dinner. As the car turned into the path in front of the villa, Scarlett and Raymond saw a person standing outside the gate about 30 feet from them.

Scarlett raised her eyebrows, turning to look at Raymond. "It's Mrs. Shaw." Raymond's face was cold. "I'll go and talk to her. Wait a moment." "Okay." Scarlett unbuckled her seat belt with a nod. Raymond pushed open the door, got out of the car, and walked up to Jean.

Jean gave him a look. "Raymond, | think you should have known that | cto Ms. Reed. | don't want to upset you, but I'm at my wit's end. I've taken you as my son these years. Can you save Thomas? "Don't worry. I'll never tell anyone that you're not a Shaw. If you helpthis time, | won't bother you and Ms.
Reed again.
Only the three of us know about that. As long as | keep it a secret, no one will know your true origin!" Raymond looked at her. "Didn't you contact Ryker? So you failed to reach a deal, right?” Raymond directly hit home. Jean's face stiffened. "Raymond, | just want to ask if you'll help us." Raymond snorted. "I thought Scarlett had made it clear." Hearing this, Jean understood what he meant.
Her face instantly turned white. "Aren't you ... afraid that I'll tell Ryker about your past?" "Do as you like." Raymond paused. "But if you pester Scarlett again, | swear the gloves are coming off.
