Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 1186 Went Missing

Raeleigh lay beside Novalie but had difficulty falling asleep the whole night. She managed to fall asleep in the end as dawn broke. She was feeling overwhelmed as she tried to let the fact that her parents were still alive sink in.

In the morning, she found out that Yanora was accused of murder and would be imprisoned when she was watching the news on television.

She walked over to sit down when she heard the sound of the news channel. As soon as she sat down, the news about Yanora popped up. Raeleigh listened for a while and couldn't help feeling that something was amiss.

Even if it was to rescue Hadrian, Santiago wouldn't have done this.

She wanted to call Santiago but before she could call him, she received a call from Scarlette. She was surprised to see her caller ID before she picked up the call.

"Scarlette."

"Raeleigh, I'm outside your house." Scarlette had been outside her house the previous night. She came but she did not show herself because she was contemplating over the idea of buying a ticket to run away before anyone had noticed.

After much cogitation, she finally decided against it.

Then, she received a call from Santiago in the morning. He told her that something had happened to Cynthia, and that he needed their help. So, she came to knock on Raeleigh's door. However, Santiago did not mention what exactly had happened to Cynthia.

Raeleigh opened the door and saw Scarlette standing anxiously by the door. "Cynthia was still fine when we left. How did she end up in the hospital? Mr. Santiago just called me to ask why he couldn't get through to your phone. He wanted me to tell you that we must get ready and go to the hospital at once. Cynthia was badly injured, and she won't be discharged in a while."

Raeleigh went back into the house and felt paralyzed by the news about Cynthia all of a sudden.

Xanthus came out of his room when he heard about Cynthia.

"What should we do?" Scalette asked. Raeleigh pondered momentarily. "I'm going. Here..."

Raeleigh turned around and looked at Xanthus, who was very understanding. "Go ahead. I'll handle everything here. Be careful on your way."

"Okay." Raeleigh went out and got into Scarlette's car. On the way, she found out that Scarlette had followed her when she left the villa but she did not show herself.

When they arrived at the hospital, Raeleigh got out of the car and followed Scarlette to the intensive care unit. She saw Santiago sitting outside of the intensive care unit. He stared straight across, into the room Cynthia was in. Zorion and Deanna were there too, as well as the girl named Rossie.

Raeleigh walked over to find that Cynthia's body was covered with tubes. She furrowed her brow, and she then turned around and asked Santiago, "What happened?"

"What have you guys been doing? How could you fail to realize that Cynthia left and went to the hotel?" Santiago asked Raeleigh sternly, who remained silent. Scarlette tried to explain but Raeleigh tugged at her to stop her from talking. Hence, Scarlette remained quiet.

Deanna couldn't stand the way Santiago behaved. She stood up and questioned him, "Santiago, why are you treating Raeleigh like this? It's not her fault either."

"Then, it's your fault." Santiago's face darkened. Deanna stamped her feet in anger. She ran to Raeleigh's side and held her hand. "Raeleigh, don't mind him. He has always been unreasonable."

"I'm not. I'm just worried about Cynthia. Deanna, I need some time to myself."

Raeleigh walked to one side and sat down while staring blankly at Cynthia. She should not have left. If she stayed, then perhaps, Cynthia's life would not have been in peril.

Raeleigh frowned as she pondered. Seeing that Raeleigh had sat down, Deanna followed her and sat down beside her.

Then, Zorion got up and took a few steps towards her. "Deanna, let's go back."

"I want to stay." Deanna protested. Her brother spent most of his time with Rossie those days. She wasn't jealous, but...

It was really boring for her to stay at home alone. Moreover, Cynthia was her friend. Shouldn't she show some concern for her? She thought.

Zorion stood for a while and said, "Be careful when you're alone."

"Okay, don't worry. Santiago is here," Deanne replied righteously. Zorion cast a glance towards Santiago. "It's precisely because he's here that I'm worried about you. You're nothing in his eyes, yet you think you're a big shot!"

Deanna knitted her brow deeply. "Don't you dare speak to me like this."

Zorion was amused by her reaction. There was a faint tenderness on his handsome face. He raised his hand and stroked his sister's head. "Alright, I will stop. Be careful. Also, you must go back tonight." "Yes, I got it."

Deanna answered compliantly. She had promised her brother that she would listen to him in the future and would never run away from home again. Otherwise, he would tell their parents about her previous abduction. Their parents were abroad. They didn't tell their parents about the kidnapping. Of course, Deanna also said nothing about Rossie.

Upon hearing Deanna's answer, Zorion turned around and left. Rossie followed closely behind him.

Raeleigh stared at Rossie and couldn't help but to feel that she was disinclined to stay by Zorion's side.

However, she had her own affairs to take care of.

Once they had left, Raeleigh went to observe Cynthia. After a while, she looked at Santiago and asked, "What the h*ll had happened?"

"Nothing." With his eyes closed and his hands in his pockets, Santiago couldn't be bothered to say another word.

Deanna, on the other hand, had something to say. She told Raeleigh not to blame herself and fret over Cynthia. Even Scarlette was starting to feel annoyed because her words made it sound like Raeleigh was the culprit who caused Cynthia to wind up in the hospital.

Finally, Deanna told everyone that she was hungry and went outside to get some food. Scarlette was worried about her, so she got up and followed her as a precautionary measure to prevent her from being kidnapped again. Deanna couldn't be counted on to take care of herself.

Deanna was happy to be accompanied by Scarlette. She asked if Scarlette wanted to eat anything, and told her that it was her treat. She even showed her money to Scarlette.

"My mother gave it to me. Look, here it's." Deanna took out her purse and displayed a thick stack of cash notes.

Scarlette's eyes lit up. "Your mother is really rich."

"It's all from my father. She doesn't need it, so she gave it to me." Deanna was rather proud. She was given a lot of money for her trip abroad. She could spend as much as she wanted.

Initially, she hid the money under her pillow, but the possibility that it might be stolen troubled her, so she placed it in her bag to buy herself some of her favorite food.

Back in the day when she was still in Waverly Village, she was constantly distressed by the scarcity of resources there, especially in terms of food. When she was there, she went to the farmers' market once. She wanted so many things but she was penniless. Such an experience left a lot of regrets in her.

She finally understood what the saying, 'money talks', meant.

She brought all the money with her, so that she could buy whatever she needed whenever she needed them.

She followed Scarlette to buy food. Seeing that she could afford it, Scarlette set her mind on the delicacies.

On their way there, Deanna said that she needed to go to the washroom, but she didn't come out of the washroom for a long time.

Scarlette went inside to look for her, but she had vanished!
