Refusing to Remarry: Mr. Hawthorne, You Are Out-Chapter 180: Obedient Only to Those Who Matter
Raine Sinclair fell into silence.
This was a direction she hadn’t considered before.
Cecilia Sullivan continued to speculate, "Could it be Jonas Hawthorne?"
"Impossible." Raine Sinclair quickly dismissed this guess, saying if Lily Sinclair truly liked Jonas Hawthorne, three years is long enough, she wouldn’t have waited until today.
"Then, who else could it be?" Cecilia Sullivan supported her chin with her hands, looking puzzled.
At this moment, Raine Sinclair suddenly remembered what Leo Keane mentioned in the afternoon, that Leon Grant kept a white princess mask...
Clearly, the one wearing the mask at the ball should be Lily Sinclair, so...
Did the two of them have some kind of connection?
Both of them tacitly chose not to tell Raine Sinclair.
Thus, if Lily Sinclair was truly troubled by love, then the person she likes... could it be Leon Grant?
And considering that Jonas Hawthorne, who usually doesn’t care about such things, even had Leo Keane observe their movements, it made Raine Sinclair’s speculation even more plausible.
Cecilia Sullivan saw her frowning silently and hurriedly asked, "Do you already have someone in mind?"
"Maybe it’s Leon Grant." Raine Sinclair answered honestly.
"Huh? It’s him?!" Cecilia Sullivan was shocked, never expecting such an answer from Raine Sinclair.
Raine Sinclair herself found it unbelievable.
But Cecilia Sullivan didn’t ask about the connection between Leon Grant and Lily Sinclair. Instead, she went straight to a more veiled topic with Raine Sinclair, "By the way, Raine, you and Leon Grant, have you two had a relationship?"
"Pfft!" Raine Sinclair, who was drinking water, directly spat it out!
Cecilia Sullivan was completely unaware of how abrupt her question was, still holding onto Raine Sinclair, unwilling to let go, "Hurry up and say it!"
"Sis, I’m pregnant, what do you think?" Raine Sinclair held her forehead, suddenly feeling a little embarrassed!
"What’s that got to do with being pregnant?" Cecilia Sullivan rolled her eyes, then came to her senses, "So, there’s nothing?"
"Of course not!" Raine Sinclair was nearly exasperated by her!
Cecilia Sullivan then frowned, "That’s strange..."
"What’s strange?"
"In the afternoon, when I saw you two eating, Leon Grant was almost defenseless towards you and was constantly caring for you, being close to you, it didn’t seem like nothing happened between you." Cecilia Sullivan calmly analyzed.
Typically, the atmosphere between men and women with or without a relationship would be completely different!
Cecilia Sullivan hasn’t spent years abroad for nothing.
Raine Sinclair carefully recalled, seemingly noticing some strange parts.
"It seems since the masquerade ball, Leon Grant has been a bit different. Did something happen that night between him and Lily Sinclair?"
Linking it with what Finn Wyatt said about the 13th floor, where they didn’t enter a room because the sounds inside were very suggestive, and all the surveillance at that time were gone.
This...
Could there be some connection?
Cecilia Sullivan, aware of the ball events, pondered for a moment, "It’s not impossible! Lily Sinclair replaced you, so it’s possible Leon Grant mistook her for you because he was drunk, and Lily Sinclair, bearing a grudge and jealousy, so teamed up with bad women!"
After speaking, Cecilia Sullivan was quite impressed with her own divine speculation, "I’m so smart! Shouldn’t I change careers to writing stories?"
Raine Sinclair, "..."
The first half of the sentence seemed serious, but then nonsense began.
However, Raine Sinclair carefully considered Cecilia Sullivan’s statement, and it seemed not entirely without reason?
Furthermore, if this is truly the case, everything would make sense!
Raine Sinclair said nothing and immediately picked up the phone to call Finn Wyatt.
"Find out what happened at the masquerade ball that night, whether Lily Sinclair was with Leon Grant!"
"Huh?" Finn Wyatt was soaking in a tender place at that moment, shocked suddenly by Raine Sinclair’s call, and even more so by her persistent investigation into this matter, feeling a bit stunned!
What’s the deal?
Hasn’t it been a long time ago?
Why bring it up now?
"Hurry up and investigate!" Raine Sinclair was a bit angry; last time she asked Finn Wyatt to investigate but he found nothing, and still hasn’t figured it all out!
Finn Wyatt’s eye twitched, wondering where this woman’s anger comes from, and why she’s bossing him around so openly?
But despite this, he wasn’t upset at all, instead, he touched his nose with slight frustration, "Why are you in such a hurry? It’s night already, tomorrow..."
"Finn Wyatt, are you incapable of handling even this simple thing?"
Raine Sinclair employed the motivational method.
Not that she’s targeting Finn Wyatt, but because he just never gets things done properly!
Finn Wyatt immediately hardened his expression, tossed the phone, pushing away the beauty sitting on his lap, and quickly walked out of the bar!
As a man, being looked down on by a woman, he couldn’t tolerate it!
"Mr. Wyatt? Why leave so soon after arriving?"
The woman behind him was stunned.
Raine Sinclair grimly listened to the phone disconnecting, then put her phone down.
Cecilia Sullivan almost burst into laughter, "Indeed Raine Sinclair, not seeing you for several years, your ability has grown! Even daring to call ’The Devil’ Finn Wyatt like that? More importantly, he seems to be under your control?"
"The things he promised last time weren’t done well, all he knows is eating, drinking, and having fun. If Diane Linton knew, it would make her furious!" Raine Sinclair snorted.
"Hahaha! It has nothing to do with Diane Linton, this is a matter between you and Finn Wyatt." Cecilia Sullivan laughed till her mouth couldn’t close.
Raine Sinclair looked at her puzzled, asking bewilderedly, "A matter between Finn Wyatt and me?"
"A man humbles himself only for the woman he cares about, adhering to her wishes, that doesn’t need me to teach you, right? Finn Wyatt obediently following your orders, I presume..."
Before Cecilia Sullivan finished, Raine Sinclair flatly denied, "Impossible."
"Why impossible? Otherwise, do you think he eats idle to do things for you and still takes your criticism?" Cecilia Sullivan, as a bystander, sees the situation clearly, while Raine Sinclair herself hasn’t realized it.
"..." Raine Sinclair fell into contemplation.
Meanwhile, Leo Keane stealthily sneaked into the hospital under the cover of night.
During Silas Linton’s hospitalization, Jonas Hawthorne routinely visited whenever he could.
Plus his own body hasn’t fully recovered yet, requiring checks.
When Leo Keane arrived, Jonas Hawthorne was undergoing an MRI, due to head injury during the explosion, there’s still a blood clot inside, needing observation if fully absorbed.
While waiting at the door, Leo Keane started daydreaming and caught a doctor asking, "Does the blood clot affect his brain so much? Will he have amnesia later or forget who he loves?"
The doctor was stunned, not answering for a while.
Leo Keane continued, "Isn’t this how it’s shown on TV dramas? Or his IQ drops to five years old, three years old, something like that?"
Then he could really get back at Jonas Hawthorne!
