Go After My Ex-wife -
Chapter 1182 She Will Forget You One Day
"How is he?" Raeleigh felt conflicted. Their relationship had ended, but she couldn't help caring about Jepherson's health condition. Jepherson slowly raised his head to look at Santiago while he continued to say, "He didn't sleep last night, so he is still asleep now." After a brief silence, Raeleigh replied, "Has he seen a doctor?"
"Yes, but it did not help much. I won't be going back today, perhaps tomorrow too. Scarlette can accompany you. Don't get out of the house today."
"I don't need anybody to keep me company."
"I am going to hang up now." Jepherson stopped him just as he was about to end the call. He placed his hand on the phone.
However, Raeleigh had already ended the call.
A beeping tone came from his phone, indicating that the call had ended. Only then did Jepherson slowly withdraw his hand.
"So what if she is our sister? If you can't overcome this mental barrier, is that still considered love? You should instead use it to prove your love to her. If you can only love her because she has no blood relation to you, and get rid of her without hesitation because you are biologically related, then I do not think you love her at all."
Santiago took a mouthful of food before he stRhysed his eyes to observe the diners in the restaurant.
"How could you be sure that there isn't any kinship between the couples here? Who knows? It might exist in their past lives, or maybe in the next ones."
"Oh, give it a rest, won't you?" Jepherson's face fell.
Santiago continued to eat. He said with his head lowered, "You're giving up after going through so many challenges. Really? Are you still the brother I know? How can you be so sure that what you've found is absolutely true?"
Jepherson frowned as Santiago took another bite. "I will pursue her if you decide to give up. I don't mind."
Stuart was flabbergasted to hear his words. Jepherson frowned and asked, "What did you just say?"
Santiago remained collected and wiped his mouth clean after he finished his meal. Then, he leaned against his chair and stared at Jepherson. He repeated, "I said I'm going after her if you give up." Jepherson's expression darkened. "Knock it off!"
"Anyway, she will still get married without you. In that case, she might as well marry me. I think we are going to make a great couple." Santiago tilted his head slightly and gazed at Jepherson. Jepherson gritted his teeth. "You're my brother. How dare you touch my woman?"
"Your woman? Is your memory serving you correctly? You two broke up." Santiago extended his hand to grab his glass and took a sip of water gracefully.
Stuart took two steps back in silence. If they were to break into a fight, then he would not attempt to stop them. Both of them deserved it.
"She is still mine whether we've broken up or not. You better keep that in mind."
"We shall see about that. I have feelings for her, and I can't allow other men to have her, unless it's you."
Santiago put down his glass, stood up, and walked towards the hotel, but he didn't leave. Instead, he stopped in front of Stuart and looked at him with his hands in his pockets. He cast a glance at Jepherson before asking Stuart, "Stuart, let me ask you, do you think the baby died?"
Stuart's forehead was covered in sweat. He didn't dare to say a word.
Santiago had put him in a difficult position.
Stuart kept quiet and his face turned pallid.
Jepherson's dark eyes sparkled. He looked around but his gaze neither once landed on Stuart nor Santiago.
Santiago continued, "Everyone in the family humored him and allowed him to search for her because they knew that he was feeling guilty for being the one who caused my mother to lose the child. Everyone claimed that it was a baby girl and he believes it. Let me ask you, is he the president of the country? Do we have to cater to his every need?"
Stuart did not speak. Instead, he stole a careful glance at Jepherson.
The displeasure on Jepherson's face had become increasingly obvious.
"Stuart, I can make life really difficult for you if you decide to keep quiet. Do you believe me?" Santiago took a step closer to Stuart. He was as tall as Stuart then. He had been growing taller rapidly over the past six months.
Stuart took a deep breath anxiously and answered, "Mr. Santiago, I really don't know."
"Tell me what you think. It doesn't matter if you know or not. I won't blame you," Santiago said. Meanwhile, Jepherson's food was being served. Stuart rushed over and helped to set up the plates on the table. That was how he managed to avoid Santiago's question.
Santiago glanced at them before he turned around and walked towards the elevator. While walking, he said, "You think she will remember you for the rest of her life after she left you. The only reason she hasn' gotten over you now and still cares about you is because she once loved you. She still couldn't bring herself to get rid of you completely."
"She's waiting for someone who can save her. This person might be Samien, or Draco. Whoever it is, once he appears, her memories with you will merely become history and you would just be a man who had hurt her in the past."
"Henceforth, you will be nothing but a stranger to her."
Santiago went into the elevator and fixed his eyes on Jepherson. "You will know what regret tastes like when her children regard you as an uncle in the future."
As Santiago finished his words, and the door of the elevator closed. Stuart approached Jepherson and said, "Mr. Jepherson, Mr. Santiago has always behaved this way. Please don't get angry at his words."
"I'm not angry." Jepherson glared at Stuart. "I don't want to see you. Get out of my sight at once. Don't show yourself before me for the next two days. Santiago is here, he will look after me."
Stuart remained silent. Jepherson had always treated him as a friend, but he had not been truthful to him.
Stuart turned around and hid in a corner where Jepherson could not see him.
Jepherson picked up the cutlery and began to have his meal with his eyes closed. He didn't care what he was putting into his mouth. After he finished his meal, he got up from the chair, and he accidentally knocked on the glass. The glass fell and broke.
Stuart wanted to help but he decided against it in the end. He watched as Jepherson left absent-mindedly.
Jepherson entered the elevator and stared at the people in the elevator in a daze. His expression remained unchanged until the door of the elevator opened again.
He returned to his room. When he entered the room, he saw Santiago lying on the bed that he had lain with Raeleigh before. He walked over and changed into his pyjamas, and he then lay down beside Santiago without uttering a word.
Santiago seemed to be asleep, but he got up and went outside right after Jepherson had lain down.
A few doctors came in after a while. Jepherson looked at them while they worked together to install the instrument and treat Jepherson. They also checked his heartbeat and pulse, and changed his medicines. Subsequently, they stood to one side of the room. Santiago waited outside and somebody came out to inform him of his condition. "He's fallen asleep."
"Okay, come out and report to me." Santiago leaned back in the chair casually. The doctors looked intimidated. They started to explain Jepherson's condition after they walked out of the room. They had prepared a treatment plan before they arrived, and Santiago was satisfied with what they had done.
