Chapter 177 A Jinx

Casimir was like a man with nothing to lose, possessing an extraordinary level of audacity. Suddenly, he grabbed her wrist and started to lead her away 

Ah! Casimir, what are you doing? Let go of me now!Raylee was abruptly pulled away. Caught completely off guard, she let out a startled cry

If you won’t take responsibility for your own life, then I will!Casimir said, his face devoid of expression

I’ve already met Layla. Her animosity toward me isn’t as intense as you might think!Struggling, Raylee roared. Let go of me, now! You’re nothing more than an ex to me! Stay out of my business!” 

Just then, the other members of the Lorimer family arrived

Due to the fact that Jeremiah was an overlooked illegitimate child, not everyone from the family showed up

Victor’s legal wife, Rosalind Horsley, along with her daughter Tiffany, represented their family at the event, making a show of fulfilling their societal duties

Wow! Ms. Goodridge and Mr. Sutherland, you guys sure do have a unique taste, taking your romance al 

funeral” 

Tiffany looked at Raylee’s wrist that was gripped by Casimir, and she said in a mocking tone, If I’m not mistaken, weren’t you engaged to my paternal halfbrother, Ms. Goodridge? What’s the matter? Jeremiah has barely passed away, and you’re already eager to rekindle your old flame with your ex, aren’t you? Well, the romantic entanglements of men and women these days are truly complicated. I’m getting on in years. I can’t keep up with the trends of you young folks!” 

When Raylee met Tiffany’s hateful gaze, her heart skipped a beat. It’s over. Casimir is a real jinr, always bringing trouble my way

Tiffany had been fond of Casimir, and that wasn’t a recent development

Four years prior, it was because of that very reason that she had her locked up in prison for four years

That day, history was repeating itself, and Raylee was once again entangled with the man Tiffany fancied

Casimir, I don’t mean to meddle, but is it really appropriate for you to be so ambiguously close with an adopted girl? Mind your image. The Lorimer family doesn’t want to get embarrassed.” 

Rosalind issued a warning before promptly leaving with Tiffany

One couldn’t hide the look in their eyes

When they brushed past each other, Raylee could even feel the murderous aura radiating from Tiffany, suggesting she wished she could tear Raylee to pieces

Layla stepped out to greet them, and she also witnessed that scene

She was already feeling down, and seeing the two of them being entangled just made her lose her temper

That’s enough, you pair of shameless couple. Jeremiah has barely been laid to rest. If you want to fool around, at least have the decency to do it far away from here. Don’t tarnish his funeral with your disgraceful presence!” 

Ms. Layla, you’ve got it wrong. I have no relation with Casimir whatsoever. Please don’t misunderstand.” 

rush, Rayler tried to explain herself, but all it did was fuel Layla’s anger even more

No relation whatsoever? Can’t I see it for myself? Are you assuming I’m blind? I really don’t know what Jeremiah saw in you. You are nothing more than promiscuous woman!” 

With that, Layla, filled with intense anger, returned to the funeral

The last two words uttered by Layla deeply pierced through Raylee’s heart

However, she had no choice but to suffer in silence

She then lifted her gaze, glaring fiercely at Casimir. Are you satisfied now? Your goal is to have the whole world believe I’m a promiscuous woman, right? You’re happy to smear my reputation, aren’t you? Casimir, you really are despicable! Let go of me right now, or I’m going to scream for help. After all, we might as well get embarrassed together!” 

Casimir let her go, a hint of panic flashing across his handsome face. I didn’t mean to smear your reputation. I was just concerned for your safety-” 

I don’t need your kindness. It’ll only harm me!Raylee exclaimed, her face flushing with anger

How have I harmed you? Layla is fuming, and you still insist on approaching her. That’s just asking for trouble. I was protecting you. What did I do wrong

I’m talking about Tiffany!Raylee said, clearly annoyed

Tiffany? What’s her connection to all this?Casimir asked, his face filled with confusion

Do you really not know?Raylee was at a loss for words

Do I really not know what?” 

Raylee didn’t have the time to explain to him. She glared at him fiercely and said, I don’t care if you’re genuinely foolish or just pretending to be. Either way, just keep your distance and stop bothering me!” 

As she spoke, Raylee dashed into the mourning hall without looking back

Layla held a memorial portrait of Jeremiah, kneeling on the ground as she sobbed quietly. Raylee tried to console her with a few soothing words, but all she received in return was cold indifference

You can leave now. I don’t need your insincere gestures of goodwill here, and neither does Jeremiah” 

Ms. Layla, my condolences.” 

Raylee could empathize with Layla’s feelings and had no intention of bringing trouble upon herself 

Just as she was preparing to leave, Rosalind and Tiffany approached together

Observing Layla, whose eyes were reddened from crying, Tiffany revealed a look of disdain and gloated, saying, Oh, dearSuch a pitiful little sister. Your only brother has passed away, and there’s no one left to protect you. What if your turns abusive in the future? Who will be there to fight him off?”
