Chapter 308 Heartless People Think Alike

Raylee set her phone aside while listening to his incessant chatter.

Finished

He claimed to love her deeply, that he couldn’t bear to part with her, and had no feelings for Waverly.

It was so disgusting that Raylee wished she could bestow upon him the title of “Sc*mbag Of The Year.”

“Ray–Ray, are you listening?”

“Yeah.”

“I love you so much, Ray–Ray. Are you touched?”

“Yeah.”

“Ray–Ray, would you be willing to sleep with Mr. Foucault and help elevate my career to the next level by acting as a bridge between us?”

Beep!

Raylee immediately hung up the phone.

She felt as if she would crawl through the internet just to give him a good thrashing if she had heard even one more word from him.

The Goodridge family had shifted their hopes of finding Waverly onto Raylee.

Harriet took the initiative by playing the sympathy card with Raylee.

Right after ending her call with Casimir, Raylee received another call, this time from Harriet.

“Ray–Ray, I beg you… Could you please take the eighteen years of our mother–daughter relationship into consideration and save Waverly?” she pleaded.

“Yeah.”

“Really? Ray–Ray, are you truly willing to help Waverly? On behalf of my entire family, I thank you.”

“Okay.”

“By the way, Ray–Ray, aside from helping Waverly out, your father has another favor to ask of you. He hopes you can act as a go–between to facilitate a collaboration between him and Mr. Foucault.”

Beep!

Raylee immediately ended the call.

One after another, they kept coming, hoping that she would dedicate herself to Leonardo for their benefit.

Heartless people sure think alike! Instead of wasting my time listening to their nonsense, it would have been better for me to have a beauty sleep!

No matter how many times he tried, he just couldn’t get through to Raylee’s phone, Just like that, he was left wondering if she had agreed to stand with him.

Did Aer responses mean she has agreed?

On the other hand, the Goodridge family was also growing anxious,

No matter how they tried, they simply couldn’t get in touch with Raylee, and they didn’t even know where she lived. That left them with no way to locate her even if their lives depended on it.

Did her responses mean she agreed to help Waverly? Is she really willing to act as a go–between?

In the three days that followed, Raylee didn’t even switch on her phone.

For the Goodridge family, she had always been in a state of unreachability,

Alaric had exhausted all his connections, spent a considerable amount of money, yet he was still unable to bail Waverly out.

In fact, he couldn’t even confirm Waverly’s condition in the detention center.

Samuel had sought out several lawyers to find out more about the situation there, but all his attempts were met with rejection.

Due to her overwhelming worry for her daughter, Harriet fell ill.

Alaric and Samuel were anxiously pacing around their home.

“Have you managed to get in touch with Raylee? That cheeky girl, I can’t believe she’d disappear right when we need her the most! Is she doing this on purpose to make us anxious? Would she really try to persuade Mr. Foucault to save Waverly? F*ck! Was she playing us all along?”

Alaric couldn’t stop hurling abuse under his breath.

Samuel said with a serious expression, “Even if we manage to get in touch with her, what good would it do? She has always despised Waverly, wishing nothing but the worst for her. How could she possibly have Mr. Foucault save her? In my opinion, we should consider other alternatives!”

“I’ve tried every possible solution, but those people are avoiding me like I’m some sort of plague! And then there’s Casimir. One moment he says he’s busy, and the next he says he’s trying to figure something out. I’m starting to suspect he’s avoiding me too! Couples are supposed to stick together, yet when disaster strikes, they often abandon each other and go their separate ways. This young man better not be thinking of abandoning my daughter in this crucial moment!” Alaric said, clearly frustrated.

Visibly upset, Samuel declared, “I’ll make him pay if he dares to do that!”

“Forget about that, Samuel. I need you to help me spread a message. Tell everyone I’m willing to pay anyone any amount as long as they can rescue Waverly, even if they have to resort to questionable or illegal methods.”

“Any amount? Dad, what if someone demands an exorbitant amount?”
