Chapter 149 Not Fit To Be A Mother

“Ray-Ray, there's something else,” Harriet said hesitantly, her face filled with reluctance and worry. After a brief pause, she continued, “If Jeremiah doesn't make it back alive, I fear his family won't let you off the hook.” She lowered her voice and warned, “If something really does happen to him, you mustn't return to Jexburgh. Stay where you are and don't let any information leak out. I've discussed this with your father. We'll tell the Lorimer family that you died trying to save Jeremiah. We won't actually wish for your death, but this will be the best way to protect you. Just do your best to keep yourself safe—we'll make sure your future is well taken care of.”
