Go After My Ex-wife -
Chapter 1190 A Warning at the Hospital
Scarlette neither told anybody that she was leaving, nor did she pack her clothes. She simply bought a flight ticket and was ready to disappear off the face of the Earth.
Raeleigh saw her off at the airport, and she wept for a while. When it was time to board the plane, she turned around and left without any hesitation.
Raeleigh stood still as she watched her leave. When she turned around, Jepherson and Stuart came into her sight and they walked up to her. Jepherson raised his head and looked around. His face fell when he realized she was there alone. He asked coldly, "Why are you out by yourself? What are you doing here?"
Sweat formed on Stuart's forehead. It seemed to him that Jepherson was about to blow a fuse.
Looking at his exasperated expression, Raeleigh didn't bother to explain herself. To her, they were strangers and had nothing to do with each other anymore since they had broken up.
Hence, there was no need for her to explain herself. She didn't want to explain either.
She stared at Jepherson for a few seconds before saying, "I'm sorry, Mr. Harvey. I have other things to do."
After that, she sidestepped him and headed for the exit of the airport. Her indifferent attitude caused Jepherson to reel from shock. He turned around and gazed after her, who had already walked to the exit. Stuart held his breath. Raeleigh's behavior was beyond Jepherson's expectation. It seemed like he was going to have a hard time coaxing her.
There was a common saying that people should get over a breakup and move on instead of dwelling on it or going back to it. Raeleigh's attitude suggested that she held such a view.
Jepherson looked at Raeleigh with a grim face. He then instructed Stuart, "Investigate what is going on."
Stuart was baffled for a moment before he asked, "Mr. Jepherson, aren't we going abroad?"
"No, I've changed my mind."
Jepherson gnashed his teeth as he fixed his gaze on the airport exit.
He wondered where she was going, and what she was doing at the airport.
Stuart initially planned to remind him that they shouldn't defer the decision to go abroad, but he chickened out when he saw Jepherson's deepening frown.
When she walked out of the airport, Raeleigh hailed a cab to go back. The driver asked her, "Is the car behind us following you?"
She looked back to find that there was indeed a luxury car that was following them.
"I don't recognize it." Raeleigh turned around, and her eyes stRhysed to the driver. Deep lines were seen between his eyebrows as he frowned and wondered. "That's weird. It seems like the Harvey family's car. Why are they following us?"
The driver was distressed. He started to wonder if they were taking revenge on him because he might have unintentionally snatched their parking slot when he was waiting for customers at the airport.
On second thought, he found it illogical since he had never heard of the Harvey family bullying mere drivers like him.
Through the rearview mirror, the driver stole a glance at Raeleigh, who was unfazed. She seemed somewhat familiar to him.
The driver immediately guessed that the car that was following them must have been related to her but she was unwilling to admit it. All he needed to do was just to drive her to her desNorahtion. He believed that the Harvey family car would not cause further trouble to him.
The driver collected the payment at the desNorahtion. Not only did he not ask for any tips, but he also refused to take the full amount and instead rounded off the charge down to the nearest tenth.
Raeleigh stood outside the car and expressed her thanks. After that, she paid the driver and went into the hospital.
Jepherson's car was parked at the opposite side of the hospital, and he looked in the direction where Raeleigh was heading.
"Why was Raeleigh alone?" There was a note of displeasure in Jepherson's voice, although he sounded nonchalant. Stuart had worked for him for many years, and he had never seen him behaving as calm as he was then when he was in a fit of temper.
"I'll check it out right away." Stuart opened the car door and got out in a hurry, as though he was afraid that he couldn't execute his order in time.
After he got out of the car, Stuart began to call Scarlette. He wanted to ask for her whereabouts. However, he couldn't get through, and he wondered where she went.
Stuart kept his phone and entered the hospital. Shortly after he went upstairs, he saw Raeleigh, who was sitting outside of the intensive care unit, and Santiago, who was accompanying Cynthia in the unit. Raeleigh stared at him without saying a word. Stuart hurriedly asked, "I'm looking for Scarlette. Madam Raeleigh, do you know where she is?"
Raeleigh's eyes were fixed on him, but she was not in the mood of talking to him at all. He clearly knew his intention of coming here. Looking for Scarlette was definitely not his primary purpose.
Raeleigh gazed at him momentarily. She did not correct his way of addressing her. Instead, she said, "Scarlette said that she was not feeling well. So, she went back to rest first."
"Is that so? Then, I shall take my leave," Stuart replied with a smile. He glanced into the unit before he turned around and left hastily.
Once he came out, he called Serra immediately to ask her if she had seen Scarlette. Serra shook her head and said that Scarlette had not returned since she left the house.
Stuart put away his phone and went outside. He got into the car and told Jepherson, "Scarlette is missing. Perhaps, she had left."
Jepherson looked up at Stuart, and his rage seemed to be pacified slightly. He then said, "Does it have anything to do with Hadrian?"
"I think so. They had a falling out with each other recently. I heard that Hadrian wanted marriage, but Scarlette wanted to break up. Scarlette was responsible for what had happened to him. Even though she didn't do it on purpose, she took advantage of the incident to flee from him."
Jepherson fell silent briefly after Stuart had explained the situation. "Send someone to ensure her safety. Tell Hadrian to handle this himself when he gets out. Scarlette is peevish, and she will cause trouble sooner or later without anyone to look after her."
"Yes, Mr. Jepherson."
While Stuart was passing on the instructions to the subordinates, Jepherson gazed at the hospital. He was planning to leave, but he changed his mind, opened the door, and got out. "Mr. Jepherson."
Stuart followed him and got out of the car as well. He lifted his hand to signal Stuart not to follow him before stepping into the hospital.
Stuart stood behind him in defeat. Jepherson was reluctant to leave Raeleigh, but he was so stubborn. The lost child must have become a bugbear of his, to say nothing of Raeleigh's identity. Jepherson walked into the hospital, entered the elevator, and went up. Stepping out of the elevator, he went around to the corridor and stopped when Raeleigh came into his sight.
Raeleigh could sense that someone was staring at her from the side. It was a familiar feeling that could only be felt by intimate lovers. She turned around to look. Surely enough, she saw Jepherson standing around.
Jepherson approached her. Raeleigh looked at him momentarily before she turned her face to look inside the intensive care unit. Cynthia had woken up, but her condition was still unstable. In addition, her immune system was weak, so she had to stay in the hospital for a couple more days, and she needed special care.
She couldn't be transferred out of the intensive care unit yet. Santiago was keeping her company.
Jepherson walked towards Raeleigh and stopped in front of her. He asked, "Did you go to the airport to see Scarlette off?"
Raeleigh neither answered, nor did she turn to look at him.
In her opinion, there was nothing left to be spoken between them.
Jepherson furrowed his brow and said with a cold expression, "You're not allowed to go out alone next time."
Raeleigh remained silent. Finally, Jepherson's gazed moved to Cynthia, and it then left after a glance at her.
Never once did Raeleigh's eye stRhysed towards him. She couldn't care less about his departure, and she wished that he would disappear from her life completely.
