She heard someone knocking on her door when she exited the bathroom after washing up.

“I’m awake. What’s the matter?” Rayna asked politely.

The housekeeper replied, “Ms. Garland, please have your meal in the dining room, then head to Old Mr. Terblanc’s study. This is an order from Old Mr. Terblanc.”

“All right. I got it.”

Rayna didn’t want to wear the heavy dress yesterday, so she put on the clothes she had worn when she arrived. Upon entering the dining room downstairs, she saw Jefferson had already reached, and he was the only person there.

He walked over and pulled out a chair for her.

After Rayna took a seat, she asked him in an undertone, “It’s just us? Aren’t your dad and Arnaud having their meal?”

He poured her a glass of milk while answering halfheartedly, “My dad received a document before lunch and went upstairs in a rage. A short while later, he summoned Arnaud to his study too.”

“Is that the document you mentioned?”

“Yes.”

“That’s pretty fast.” Nevertheless, the situation was advantageous to them. Rayna added, “The housekeeper told me to go to your dad’s study after I finish my lunch. Will you be going as well?”

After seeing him nodding his head, Rayna grew impatient. “Let’s hurry up and eat, and then we can go and see Arnaud getting punished. This will decide whether we can acquire the right of inheritance.”

Taking in her adorable mien, Jefferson chuckled.

After finishing their lunch, they went to Boniel’s study together. Rayna witnessed Boniel giving Arnaud a hard slap across the latter’s face through the left-ajar door when she arrived at the entrance.

“B*stard! Didn’t I tell you not to meddle in this shady business? Are you turning a deaf ear to my warnings?”
