Go After My Ex-wife -
Chapter 1061 Mr. Santiago Is Angry
Raeleigh immediately asked, "Is it him?"
"Yes, it's him."
The host said as he squatted down to help the man up. The man screamed, "No, no, no..."
"It's me, it's me!" the host shouted. Only then did the man look at him slowly. His body was still trembling after he took in the sight, as if he was afraid of human contact.
"Let's bring him to the hospital." Raeleigh looked at the man. They could only do that.
The host agreed. However, before they left, he took off the man's clothes. It was a hot day and the cotton clothes he was wearing gave off a foul odor. The hospital would refuse treatment to such a person if they went just like that.
The host pulled the man out, stripping the smelly clothes off the man. Raeleigh got him a glass of water and managed to find a clean towel. She washed it with water and began cleaning the man. Raeleigh kept looking at the intact half of the man's face, trying to figure out who he was.
The host was extremely generous towards the man. After the man had been cleaned up, the host gave him his own clothes to wear. The weather wasn't too bad that day. The host donned a larger pair of pants and together, the three left the house.
Raeleigh looked back at that house. There was a creeping sensation in the back of her mind, telling her that there was something off about it.
Raeleigh fixed her gaze on the man who had lost his mind and said nothing.
At the hospital, the doctor diagnosed the man with severe mental regression.
Raeleigh sat aside, with a helpless look on her face. It had not been easy to find a clue, yet things had turned out that way.
After sitting there for a while, Raeleigh stood up and said, "I'm a student, so I have to head back for class. Please get someone to take care of him here. I will be back. This is all the money I have on me. Use this to pay the bills for now."
Raeleigh took out upwards of two thousand dollars and gave it to the host. He glanced at the money and said, "It's fine. I can take this. I can't just sit back and watch."
The host gave Raeleigh her money back. Raeleigh took it and told him, "I'm leaving. Call me if you need my help. Here is my number."
Raeleigh gave the host her phone number. He then said, "I'm Wouter. Don't worry, I will take care of him. You can head back to your classes."
"Okay," Raeleigh replied. She left the hospital, shooting a glance at the man who was lying on the bed beforehand. However hard she tried, she couldn't recall who he was, but he was connected to the orphanage for sure.
After leaving the area where the orphanage once stood, Raeleigh took a cab back to school.
It was already three o'clock in the afternoon. Raeleigh gasped when she saw the time. As soon as she got off the cab, she found Santiago waiting at the gate. He leaned against the guardhouse with his eyes closed.
After Raeleigh paid the cab driver, she looked around, but she didn't see Scarlette. Santiago was there alone.
Raeleigh walked over. Santiago opened his eyes and asked, "Where have you been?"
"I went to the burger joint," Raeleigh confessed. She knew that Santiago was not easy to deceive.
"Tell me next time and I'll take you there. If something happens to you, then how am I going to take responsibility for that?" Santiago turned around and walked into the campus, with Raeleigh following behind him. Santiago was obviously pissed off, but he didn't show it. Raeleigh was at a loss for words at that.
On campus, Scarlette ran out. As soon as she saw Raeleigh, she asked in a whisper, "Where have you been? Mr Santiago was so angry that he flipped a desk."
Raeleigh looked up at Santiago's stony expression. She knew that he was mad, but she didn't expect him to be that angry.
"I'm sorry," Raeleigh blurted out all of a sudden. Santiago stopped and turned to face her. "You shouldn't say that to me. You should say it to him."
After saying that, Santiago walked away. Raeleigh was still standing there in a daze. Scarlette then said, "Mr. Santiago hasn't had lunch yet. He's been waiting for you at the gate. We were all afraid that something had happened to you, you know? Mr Santiago didn't allow us to make any phone calls, for fear that you got into some accident somewhere."
Scarlette talked a lot on the way to their desNorahtion. Raeleigh could not come up with any words to say. She went to look for Santiago, but ended up not seeing him even though she had been searching the whole afternoon.
When Hadrian came to pick Raeleigh up at night, Raeleigh looked around. Santiago was still nowhere to be found. Raeleigh asked, "Where is Santiago?"
"He returned Tristany. He requested that I come to fetch you and Scarlette." Hadrian opened the door as he said that. He was driving his own car. Raeleigh swept another glance around before getting into the
car.
Raeleigh's gaze kept darting around as she got in. She had a hunch that Santiago hadn't gone back. Maybe he was on the way back. However, she did not see him the whole route back to the villa.
After they reached the villa's compound, Raeleigh got out of the car. She didn't see Santiago's car there.
Raeleigh went inside to inquire after Santiago. Serra told her that he had not come back to the villa.
"Hadrian, didn't you tell me that Santiago had come back Tristany?" Raeleigh asked. Hadrian replied, "That is what he told me."
"Where is he then?" Raeleigh asked. Hadrian just shook his head. "I don't know."
Raeleigh called Santiago immediately, but he did not answer the phone. Raeleigh asked Scarlette to call him, but he didn't answer her call either.
"Raeleigh, don't worry. It'll be fine," Scarlette comforted Raeleigh, holding her hand. Raeleigh simply shook her head and said, "I know that."
But she was still very worried deep down in her heart.
Raeleigh went to Novalie first, and unpacked the items she had not cleared away the day before. Santiago had not returned even after dinner was served. Raeleigh's calls were still not getting through. She skipped dinner and waited for him. However, he still was not back yet.
"Raeleigh, it's normal for Mr Santiago to behave this way. Sometimes, he is a bit self-centered. Don't be mad at him." Scarlette said.
Raeleigh did not reply. She went upstairs and called Jepherson to tell him that she went to the orphanage during the day.
"So, Santiago went missing because of that?" Jepherson stood by the window. Behind him, Hudson was drinking tea. Hudson did not like going out in recent years. Even if he had some business to attend to, he was unwilling to show up. Many of his business transactions had been completed at home. That year, he had gone abroad for a period of time and just returned a few days ago. He had always been reluctant to go to Capital City. The Harvey family was thriving and was on par with their rivals, the Cole Family. However, they had once been allies of the Cole family. Hence, he was sad at the current relationship between the two families.
Hudson didn't want to interfere with the younger generation's decisions, but he still insisted on not going to Capital City.
Paige had gone there. Hudson was still a little vexed over that. If he could cut off Capital City, then he would have willingly done so, but it was not his decision to make anymore.
He was aging. Time flowed fast. All he could do was to remain as A City's guardian in his twilight years.
The day before, when his grandson returned, Hudson had never thought that he had come especially to visit him.
While they were talking, Jepherson accepted a phone call from a woman. Hudson couldn't help but to be curious. Who was she?
She didn't sound like Deanna at all!
