Chapter 1562
Raeleigh didn't need to turn around to know it was the man who disliked her the most, Lechen.
Raeleigh kept playing until it was time for lunch. They were given a break then. Most of the prisoners went to the bathroom before having their meals, while Raeleigh did the opposite.
The bathroom was considered clean, but it was crowded.
Raeleigh insisted Austin accompany her.
As Austin had always been one to be indifferent and never cared a fig, he became the center of attention when a woman appeared by his side all of a sudden.
After lunch, Raeleigh and Austin continued the games. It wasn't until the night came that Raeleigh left with Austin.
Raeleigh already felt brain fried when she left the room, and she could barely hold her cutleries when it was time for dinner.
But she cleaned her plate regardless.
She wasn't going to yield to the environment. From NôvelDrama.Org.
After dinner, Raeleigh followed Austin back. Entering the cell, Austin told her to take a shower, and she did. She didn't know whether she should feel lucky that there was a shower in Austin's cell.
After taking a shower, Austin threw a new set of clothes at Raeleigh. Noticing he had done a quick change and left the worn clothes on the ground after she emerged from the bathroom, Raeleigh picked it up and washed both of their clothes.
After she was done, Raeleigh came out with a basin of warm water in hand, staring at Austin. She didn't forget their deal.
Compared to kissing Austin, washing his feet was nothing.
Raeleigh put the basin of water in front of Austin's feet. Looking at Raeleigh, Austin blurted out, "It's not too late for you to change your mind."
"I don't regret it. If I want to survive this hell-hole and save myself, I have to pay the price. It puts my mind at ease."
"Have you ever washed others' feet?" Austin asked. "My grandmother's," She replied.
Austin fell silent. Raeleigh stirred the water, then put his feet in the bath one after the other.
As Raeleigh washed Austin's feet, she did not forget to ask, "When can I make the call?"
"It will never happen."
Raeleigh was not discouraged. Although she received an unsatisfactory reply, she continued to wash Austin's feet. After that, she wiped them dry, poured the water, and hung the towel. When she returned, Austin was lying on the opposite bed. She asked, "Are we sleeping together again?"
"You don't want to?" Austin asked, and Raeleigh reminded, "I'm a married woman."
"Well, your husband's incompetent then. He didn't even know his wife was lost and couldn't even find her after searching for so long. Even if he manages to find you a year later, you might even already have a child. Ten years later, you might even have forgotten him."
"That's for me to worry about in the future. He's looking for me, but the world is big. He would never have thought his wife would be taken to prison and be resorted to slavery."
Raeleigh slumped onto the opposite bed and tucked herself in as she said. After gaming for the whole day, she was worn out.
Raeleigh had noticed there was only one blanket. If they didn't cuddle up, there would be a person without a blanket.
Although it wasn't cold in the cell, it wasn't warm either. The bed was made of wood and on top of it was a thin layer of the mattress. It was chilly even with a blanket, let alone without.
Raeleigh made space for Austin. For the first night, he looked over at her but did not go to her side. Raeleigh woke up in the middle of the night, moved to his bed with the blanket, and slept with him.
Austin stretched his arms out to hug her from behind, leading her to shoot her eyes open, but then slowly closed them back and continued to sleep.
It was the same routine the next day.
Raeleigh's life in prison had been so since then. Women occasionally visited the prison; they weren't thrown in like she was but the prisoner's family instead.
If they were husband and wife, the prison would arrange a private room for them if they paid up. They would sleep and eat there, and the meals that day would be excellent as well.
They were provided full course meals, and they could request any dishes they wanted.
Raeleigh only learned about it when she saw the other inmates.
She had also overheard some prisoners saying if one could please and flatter Lechen, even the dead can revive.
Raeleigh had, however, never thought of doing so as she knew very well how ridiculous it was to get blood out of a stone.
Raeleigh and Austin didn't have to game on the weekends; they could take a stroll outside their cell. Raeleigh would stick by Austin's side, even when he went to the toilet.
Some had their eyes on Raeleigh. Who wouldn't fall for such an elegant and noble woman?
Raeleigh carried a natural elegance with her. Both her eyes and her mouth could easily lead one to fantasize.
She had no supporting undergarments, so she would always wear lots of layers. In a place like a prison, Raeleigh faced many inconveniences, especially when she was in a male prison.
Her only thought was to escape the hell-hole.
As they walked to the center of the square, Raeleigh saw some people approaching them with malicious intent.
And she immediately hid behind Austin, and the gang soon arrived before Austin.
"Austin."
The man walked over and wore a smile. He was good-looking, but shrewdness pervaded his gaze. Raeleigh didn't have a good impression of him at all.
"Skip the formalities, spit it all out." Austin stuck his arms in his pockets, his gaze on the man lazy.
With a chuckle, he took a glance at Raeleigh. "It's been almost half a month. Don't you think it's time we have our turn, Austin?"
Raeleigh looked at the man, then up at Lechen, who was leaning, watching the fun from the upper floor. Raeleigh surmised he must've had something to do with him.
With a smirk, Austin jeered, "Sure. Go ahead if you have the ability. Right here."
Raeleigh froze for a moment and looked up at Austin, who stepped aside. The man was pleasantly delighted. "You said so."
Austin walked away. Seeing so, Raeleigh quickly ran to him, and he never turned his head back once. Seeing Raeleigh about to flee, the man tried to grab her hair but failed to do so. Stumped, Raeleigh realized why Austin had wanted her to cut her hair short.
With the failed attempt, Raeleigh quickened her pace at the sight of someone digging in the distance, with Austin heading in that direction as well.
As the man knew how Octus died, he had his men stop Raeleigh. Hearing that, Austin turned around and looked at him as his men swarmed over to block their way.
Raeleigh used the opportunity to snatch an iron shovel, then turned around and looked at the man
who had caught up, dragging him while gritting her teeth.

In fact, Raeleigh did not have the guts to harm the man, but desperate times called for desperate measures.
