“If you refuse to obey, I’ll have Dad discipline you!” Gregory warned, before turning to apologize to Raylee.

“Apologies, miss,” he said. “My younger brother is quite naive and may have caused you some inconvenience. Once I get. back, I’ll make sure he doesn’t cause you any more trouble. You should continue with your relationship, and please, extend my apologies to your boyfriend.”

“No worries, General Mulligan. It’s no big deal.” Raylee courteously nodded as she spoke.

General Mulligan is such. Why is there such a vast difference between the two brothers?

When Halston was taken away, he shouted toward the hospital room

“Ray–Ray, take me home, and plead my case with my grandpa. I can’t let Gregory take me into the army, I would be doomed! Ray–Ray, my precious, I’m begging you, please!”

Despite Halston’s pleas, Raylee turned a deaf ear.

His joining the military was the best option–out of sight, out of mind. Plus, she had one less romantic rival to worry about

In a moment of panic, Halston inadvertently spilled, “I know a secret about Mr. Foucault! If I’m not mistaken, you probably haven’t seen his true face yet, have you? Look, I’ve seen it. If you’re willing to take me home and plead my case to my grandfather, then I’ll tell you what Mr. Foucault looks like!”

Raylee paused, looking at him in astonishment. “You’ve seen him? You’re not lying to me, are you?”

“I’m

telling you

the truth! When have I ever deceived you?”

Halston was shouting out loud while being led away.

Raylee turned to Plumpy and asked. “Have you ever sech what Mr. Foucault looks like?”

The latter shook her head, saying, “I haven’t seen it.”

“Aren’t you curious?”

ם!

“Ms. Somers, I’m not particularly interested in the boss‘ appearancè

“But I am!”

Raylee promptly chased after Halston.

Just as she got downstairs, Halston had already been taken away in a military vehicle.

She promptly hailed a taxi and followed suit.

Upon arriving at the entrance of a residential area on a military base, Halston was escorted out of the vehicle.

Just as he was about to be forcibly sent into the army for some much–needed discipline, Gregory suddenly received a phone

call.

“What? Alright, I’m on my way!”

After hanging up the phone, Gregory had no time to bother about Halston with something urgent coming up.

Immediately abandoning the latter, he and his subordinates drove off.

Halston breathed a sigh of relief.

Upon turning around, he saw Raylee stepping out of the taxi.

Raylee didn’t care whether he had joined the army or not.

“You mentioned earlier that you have seen what Mr. Foucault looks like?*

A wave of shock washed over Halston, causing him to break out in a cold sweat. Hastily, he shook his head and said, “No, 1 didn’t. I’ve never seen it. I was lying to you.”

Looking at Halston’s guilty demeanor, Raylee scoffed, “Do you take me for a fool? Quick, tell me what Mr. Foucault looks like! Otherwise, I…
