Chapter 2366
The phone rang several times before Clara answered the phone.
"Rae, what's wrong? Are you drunk?" Clara was very concerned about Raelynn's health. After all, she had drunk a lot last night.
She had been very worried since she didn't escort Raelynn to the hotel room.
Raelynn just smiled sardonically. She had been more than drunk. She almost ruined herself.
She could not blame Clara for that. With Mr. Hansen in trouble, Clara had been fraught with anxiety.
"Clara, I'm fine. Is Mr. Hansen feeling better?" Raelynn remembered that Clara left because she received a call from Mr. Hansen.
That was why she hurriedly called Clara.
"Rae, my father is fine. He just fell on his leg and pulled his ligament. At that time, a passerby called an ambulance which sent him to the hospital. My mother didn't understand the situation fully and was really worked up, so I was anxious then. I was worried about you all night. I can rest assured now since you've arrived at the hotel safely." Although it was a mere distance of 500 meters, it was also possible for a drunk person to go to the wrong place.
It wasn't like such a situation had never happened before.
Raelynn would occasionally act recklessly when she was drunk.
Raelynn smiled and said, "Yes, I'm back at the hotel safe and sound. You don't have to worry about me. Take good care of Mr. Hansen."
"Well, as long as you're safe, I'm relieved. Since you get off work soon, do you want to go out for dinner?"
Raelynn said, "I'm not going out for the time being. I feel a little unwell after getting drunk last night. I'll go back to the hotel to rest first. Tomorrow, I'll go to the new place to take a look. I need to buy some bits and bobs too."
Clara replied, "Okay. My father will be discharged from the hospital today. He can go back home and rest for a while before continuing to work. If you need any help, you must tell me."
Raelynn was very grateful that she had such a good friend. No matter the time or occasion, she always had her in her thoughts.
"Alright, Clara!"
They chatted for a while before ending the call.
Raelynn felt sore all over, although she got enough sleep. She had nothing to do and did not want to work, so she got up and went to the bathroom. After filling the bathtub, she lay inside and sighed comfortably. She looked up at the brilliant crystal chandelier above her head.
Raelynn had to sigh again. Being rich was a wonderful thing!
Raelynn's mind drifted from thought to thought. The feeling of water on her skin was too comfortable, washing the aches and pain away.
Gradually, she fell asleep again. It was not until the doorbell for dinner rang that she was awakened.
Raelynn suddenly opened her eyes and looked around in confusion. She had just had a dream. She dreamed that Kenneth was standing beside the bathroom and gently calling her, "Rae, wake up, quick, wake up!"
As soon as she opened her eyes, she heard the doorbell ringing.
The water had already turned cold. She was completely awake by then. Raelynn had missed him all day and even met him in her dream. It was as though she was poisoned fatally with the toxin known as Kenneth.
Raelynn got up, quickly put on her bathrobe, and went to open the door. At the door, two waiters were pushing two small dining carts outside.
Raelynn looked at them apologetically. "Sorry to keep you waiting. Come in."
"It's alright."
The two waiters pushed the trolleys forward with a smile on their faces, and laid all the food out on the table.
They said, still smiling "Miss Edwards, this is a feast of lobster. Enjoy your meal!"
Raelynn glanced at the fare and realized that she would not be able to finish everything herself.
"Thank you! But can you give me some takeaway boxes? I can't eat so much food alone. I want to take some back and share it with my family. Can you pack some of the specialties here too? Enough for three people."
One waiter said, "Of course, Miss Edwards. Please wait for a moment. We'll prepare everything right away."
"Thank you!" Raelynn turned around and took her phone to make a call in the room.
"Raelynn, have you returned to the hotel after work?" Ryder asked happily.
"Yes. Ryder, have you eaten yet?"
Ryder replied, "Nope. Mom and I just moved some things over and tidied up. We're just heading out to eat. Have you eaten?"
Raelynn was delighted. She grinned and said, "Ryder, I haven't eaten either. Wait for me, we don't need to go out to a restaurant to eat. I'll bring some food back later. Please wait for me with mom." "Alright, sis!"
After Raelynn hung up, she went to the dressing room to change into casualwear.
The hotel's service was top-notch and speedy. Ten minutes later, two large insulated boxes were carried up by the waiter, who stood in front of her.
Next to him stood a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes.
"Miss Edwards, where are you going?"
Raelynn was flummoxed. She asked, "Are you going to bring me there?"
The middle-aged man smiled and nodded. "Yes, Miss Edwards. Mr. Alwynn has ordered me to take good care of you."
Raelynn was momentarily dumbstruck.
Oh no, she was once again floored by the extent of Kenneth's care for her.
"Thank you! Let's go, then." Raelynn did not reject the offer. There was no way she could take a taxi while carrying two large boxes.
Thirty minutes later, the car stopped in front of Raelynn's house.
The driver immediately got out of the car and carried the two insulated boxes out of the trunk.
Raelynn looked at him, feeling very grateful. "Thank you. You can go back first. I'll return by myself later."
The driver handed her his business card and said, "Very well, Miss Edwards. This is my name card. You can call me 30 minutes before you are to depart. I will pick you up then." Raelynn nodded. "Okay, thank you!"
After the driver left, Raelynn called and asked Ryder to come down to get the boxes.
"Wow! Sis, where did you get all this delicious food?" Ryder was starving. After all, they had been hard at work all day.
Raelynn smiled. "It's the hotel's lobster feast and some specialties. Let's eat together."
Ryder was stunned. "That couldn't have been cheap."
Raelynn found an excuse. "My work went through and I got a small bonus. I wanted to treat you and mom to a delicious meal." "Okay, okay, okay. Well, I love lobster the most."
Raelynn looked at his innocent smile and cheerfully grinned back. "That's a lucky coincidence then. Let's go inside quickly."
Raelynn was walking behind Ryder when her phone vibrated.
She looked down and saw that it was a message from Kenneth.
"Rae, I'm done with the meeting."
Raelynn's grip on her phone tightened. To be honest, she was very bold when she was impulsive, but when she calmed down, her fears soon overtook her by the dozens. Was she really going to fall in love with Kenneth Kenneth?
Would the Alwynn family agree to a person with a family background like hers?
It was said that the second son of the Alwynn family married the daughter of the richest man in Lemmon City.
Raelynn, she was nothing!
Raelynn replied to his text, "You've worked hard. Rest early tonight."
When they arrived at their place on the second floor, it finally felt like a home after Ryder and Malia's redecorating efforts.
"Mom, thank you for your hard work." Raelynn looked at her mother. She was very gentle, very elegant, and her smile was very beautiful.
When she was young, she had been a prime beauty.
Malia smiled lovingly and looked at the small apartment. Her eyes were glimmering. "Rae, it wasn't hard work at all! I'm very happy. We finally have a home."
