Chapter 86 A Shackle Or A Token Of Love

If Raylee had to stay in the same carriage with that stupid Samuel any longer, she would surely go mad sooner or later.
Back in Jexburgh, the doctor noticed that some of her wounds were quite deep and recommended that she stay for a couple of days for observation.
Kaylee didn’t refuse. She had fallen from such a high cliff and miraculously survived. She wasn’t sure if it was a sign of good luck, but she knew for certain that she had to prioritize her health.
She unlocked her phone and checked WhatsApp. Jeremiah had left a message saying he had to leave due to an urgent work matter. That was it. Not a single word about her falling off a cliff,
Her chest tightened and she chose not to reply.
Back whoa the gunshot incident happened at the pool, he had seemed to value her greatly.
But now, it appeared he wasn’t as worried about her as she had thought..
By evening, Shanice was transferred back from the hospital near Whitehorn Mountain.
Raylee only found out when Casimir dropped by her hospital room.
This wasn’t the first time this man had shown up at her bedside uninvited. She frowned, cutting straight to the point. “Make it quick I need to rest.”
“Alright, two things. First, on behalf of my sister, thank you for saving her. Second–Casimir pulled a pebble from his pocket.
Raylee’s eyes widened. Wait.. isn’t that–the pebble she had thrown off the cliff? Did this guy actually manage to find it? Searching fort pebble at the bottom of a cliff had to be way harder than finding a person. How on earth did he pull that off? More importantly, he had drilled a hole through it and threaded it onto a gold chain, turning it into a bracelet. In just one day, he had not only found the pebble but also transformed it into jewelry. Only an idle, rich scion would have the time and patience for something this absurd.
Casimir didn‘) bother explaining. Instead, he took her wrist and slipped the bracelet on.
What are you doing? Tidon’t want it! You’re hurting me?” Raylee resisted, unwilling to put it on, but his grip was firm. The juressure made her wince
“I don’t want to hurt you either,” he said evenly. “Just be a good girland wear it. His eyes locked onto hers, steady and sincere. “I spent all day looking for that pebble. Don’t let my efforts go to wasteg
Kaylee scoffed. “No, seriously? Your sister fell off a cliff and got seriously injured, and instead of staying by her side, you were our hunting forja rock? Are you out of your mind?”
Kaylee shot him a look as if he were an idiot. He was usually so composed and rational What was with this sudden childish behavior? Could he be an extremt like Jeremiah?
“Because you matter more” Just live words, spoken so casually, yet they sent warmth rushing to her cheeks and made her lieartskip a beat.
At that moment, Kaylee realized he was nothing short of a cunning fox with many faces
She lifted her gaze, meeting his deep, ocean–like black eyes.
So even the most upright, coldest of men could speak words of affection. It as only a matter of whether they wanted to or not.
His face was so close that she could clearly catch the alluring scent of his cologne, mised with a distinct masculine warmth.
Her heartbeat quickened. Pressing a hand against his chest, she tried to stealy herself, her voice coming out slightly husky. “I don’t need it. You should save it for your fiancee.”
“She already has one. She even tur
a keychain“ Casimir furrowed his brows, his tone tinged with dissatisfaction.

invested in me? Or was all of it just for show?
Raylee’s eyes flashed with indignation “Casimir, are you out of your mind? Who fakes their feelings for no reason?”
She scoffed. “Besides, what’s the point of bringing this up now? It’s all in the past.”

Before she could react, he had already fastened the bracelet onto her wrist. Casimir admired his handiwork with a satisfied expression. It looks great. It suits you. You should keep it on.”
“I don’t want it!” Raylee tried to yank it off, but he caught her wrist, stopping her effortlessly.
“I told you to wear it. So wear it. Be good, or else”
“Or else what?” she snapped, eyes burning with fury. “Are you threatening me now?”
Casimir shook his head, his chiseled features radiating an almost oppressive intensity. “Your brother had you committed to a psychiatric hospital, and you chose to let it go for your grandmother’s sake. Couldn’t you do the same for this bracelet?”
Rage swirled intensely in the depths of Raylee’s eyes.
Kaylee’s anger flared. “Why don’t you just go all the way and use my grandmother to force me into being your mistress? That way, you’d get best of both worlds!”
