Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 1098 Hurt Others and Herself

Raeleigh slept through the night. When she woke up, she realized that she hadn't returned home the previous night. Instead, she was on the top floor of a hotel with Jepherson. He was sprawled beside her naked, with his arms wrapped around her body. A slight dizziness was muddling Raeleigh's mind. She leaned against the bed and tried to collect her thoughts. The day before, they had gone to the office. Jepherson had been extremely busy with a never ending pile of work. They had planned to head out after they were done with the work, but they hadn't had the luxury to do that. Raeleigh had banished all thoughts of leaving the office and stayed behind to help Jepherson with his work. With the two of them working together, they finally finished all that had to be done, but Raeleigh was exhausted by that point. So, Jepherson had brought her to where they were currently. The beauty and romance of the place culminated in them making love again the night before.

Raeleigh continued leaning on her side and exhaled slowly. They had s*x again?

Raeleigh had no words for her present state. If she continued on like that, then she would definitely fall apart.

However, she was reluctant to leave Jepherson. What should she do?

Raeleigh gripped onto Jepherson's arm and he hugged her back, waking up at that moment.

As soon as Jepherson opened his eyes, he lowered his head and kissed Raeleigh. He asked, "Did last night tire you out?"

Raeleigh shook her head. A triumphant smile appeared on Jepherson's face as he said, "Since you're not tired, then I will help myself."

After saying that, Jepherson sat up and pulled Raeleigh into his arms. He gave her another kiss. Then, his hand made its way to her thighs. Without meaning to, Raeleigh allowed him to have his way with her again.

Raeleigh bit her lips and turned away in embarrassment. Although she felt some trepidation in her heart, she could not bear to push him away.

...

They lay in each other's embrace after another round of love-making. A moment later, Jepherson pulled away and picked Raeleigh up, taking her into the bathroom for a shower.

When they emerged from the bathroom, Jepherson lay Raeleigh back down on the bed for a while. He told her with a sigh of relief, "We won't be going to the office today."

At that moment, Raeleigh had still been immersed in her world of self-blame and remorse. Jepherson's words had shook her. She looked at him and said, "Didn't you say that there's still a lot of work today? Today's Friday, I'm sure you have many matters to attend to."

"I don't feel like it," Jepherson replied without skipping a beat. He took Raeleigh's hand and put it on his chest. With narrowed eyes, he added, "Let's have some fun today. We'll go somewhere without any other people. Let's go to the sea, what do you think?"

Raeleigh said, "It's a little too cold for that, don't you think?"

"It isn't officially autumn yet. I want to go out to the ocean and see if there's any mackerel there." Jepherson widened his eyes suddenly, which spooked Raeleigh. Her heart raced in her chest and she stumbled back a little. She had gotten a real fright from Jepherson's sudden movement.

"What are you doing? You scared me." Raeleigh's face had turned pale. Jepherson realized that he had gone too far at that point. He walked over to her side and reached out for her hand, folding her into a hug.

"Do you feel better now? I nTristany forgot that you were pregnant." Jepherson was full of worry. It caused Raeleigh to feel somewhat embarrassed, and she grew flustered. However, she lay there in Jepherson's arms meekly, showing no sign of leaving his warm embrace.

"I think it's best if you were to go to the office and finish all of your work. We can go to the seaside afterwards," Raeleigh suggested. After a moment, Jepherson asked, "Will you be accompanying me?" Raeleigh nodded. "Yes, I will."

"Then, let's go," Jepherson said as he got out of bed. He and Raeleigh put on their clothes and together, they left the hotel.

The couple had breakfast together and proceeded to the office. As soon as they arrived at the office, Jepherson headed straight into a meeting. The purpose of the Tristany morning meeting was to discuss the sales plan for Phantasy Dream and Duke. The cars had not been produced yet. So, they would be focusing on marketing and publicity in the initial stages.

As a matter of adhering to the company's strategy, they would have to first come up with a plan before testing the waters in the market. The market's reaction would determine whether or not they should follow their original promotion plan or change their pace.

Raeleigh had exerted herself the entire day before. She had not slept until after midnight and had woken up at six o'clock that morning. She felt a little sleepy.

However, the real reason behind her sleepiness was her pregnancy.

Sitting beside Jepherson, Raeleigh was in low spirits. The discussion at the meeting only made her feel sleepier. Jepherson was talking, so everyone was looking at them. Raeleigh had dozed off at that time. Jepherson glanced at Raeleigh beside him, and reached out to pull her into his arms. Raeleigh immediately woke up and pried her eyes wide open, slightly embarrassed.

"Come here a little," Jepherson instructed. Raeleigh looked at the people around them. She was the type to get up immediately and apologize to everyone, then muster enough energy to stay awake for the res of the meeting. But at that moment, she was unable to do so. She was going to leave in a few days, right? She could just treat this as imprinting a memorable moment to Jepherson, by allowing him to do as he pleased.

Raeleigh stood up, moved her chair closer to him, and sat back down. As soon as she sat, Jepherson patted his lap. She froze for a moment. Was he asking her to lie down on his lap?

"You can lie on my lap and rest for a while. We'll go back together after this meeting." The rest of the people present at the meeting were in disbelief at Jepherson's words. Raeleigh laid her head gently on Jepherson's thighs. From Jepherson's other side, Stuart rushed over with a chair for Raeleigh to rest her legs on.

After that, Stuart went back to his place and stood there, poker-faced. His hands were clasped behind his back and he was dressed in black from head to toe.

Raeleigh closed her eyes and tucked her hands underneath her face as she lay on Jepherson's lap. Jepherson placed a hand on her body and patted her soothingly as he said, "Continue with the meeting." The discussion resumed as everyone presented different ideas for the sales plan. On the other hand, an exhausted Raeleigh soon fell asleep. Jepherson kept on patting her back as she slept. By the time she was deep in sleep, the meeting had ended.

Everyone in the room exchanged glances. Jepherson bent down and picked Raeleigh up, carrying her in his arms.

Stuart immediately packed up and left with Jepherson.

When Stuart emerged from the conference room, Jepherson was already at the lounge. Raeleigh was sleeping on the couch, looking completely at peace.

As Jepherson had work to complete, he went to sit at his desk and attend to said work, but not before he took off his coat to cover Raeleigh with it.

Raeleigh had no idea how long she slept for. She finally woke up after some time.

When Jepherson noticed that she was awake, he dropped what he was doing and looked at her, asking, "You said that you weren't tired, so why did you fall asleep?" Raeleigh got up from the couch and retorted, "I just felt a little sleepy."

"Is that why you fell asleep?" Jepherson teased her, slightly amused by her answer. In reply, Raeleigh said, "I had a good nap. If you need my help for anything, then I'm ready."

"Just rest. I'm almost done. After I'm done, let's go get something to eat. It's getting late, you must be hungry," Jepherson said as he briefly glanced at the clock. Raeleigh sat back and watched him at work. Jepherson was very serious when it came to work. She had never seen anyone as absorbed in their work as him. She wondered whether he was tired after sitting up straight for so long. It had been a good few hours.

Raeleigh merely sat on the sofa and observed him. This view fascinated her, but suddenly it struck her with a wave of sadness.

She did not want to leave him, but what could she have done?

Did she really want to continue on like this? Did she want to continue hurting others and herself?
