Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 1191 A Visit to Cynthia

After Cynthia got better, she was transferred to an ordinary ward. Scarlette was gone. Raeleigh immediately got a specialist to be in charge of taking care of Cynthia.

On one hand, it was Cynthia who had been looking after Raeleigh after she had her miscarriage. On the other hand, it was indeed inconvenient for a man such as Santiago to take care of Cynthia himself. "Raeleigh, thank you. I'm sorry for causing trouble." Cynthia repeated this multiple times throughout her stay in the hospital. Raeleigh disregarded them all. Unlike Cynthia, she seldom spoke during her recovery from miscarriage. It was even more unlikely for her to say the things Cynthia had said during that period.

However, Cynthia was different. She would repeatedly tell the same thing to Raeleigh.

Raeleigh was accustomed to it. She thought Cynthia wouldn't give up expressing her gratitude even if she told her not to.

Cynthia had to stay in the ward and seldom get to go out. She also had nothing else to do to kill time, so she took it as a way for her to kill her boredom.

Santiago came back with some food. Seeing that Santiago had come back, Raeleigh walked over and took the food from Santiago.

Raeleigh was by her side all day long, which was pretty much the same for Cynthia. The only difference was that she could move around freely, whereas Cynthia could only lie or sit on the bed.

"Xanthus is here. He's parking the car outside," Santiago told Raeleigh after he came out of the washroom. Raeleigh turned around and shot a glance at him. "Oh?"

She placed the food on the table and arranged it neatly. Then, she went to the door to wait for Xanthus.

Cynthia could already sit up. Half a month had passed by in a flash. She heard that the weather was getting cold, and she looked out from time to time. She felt a sense of sadness whenever she watched the trees swaying in the wind. She didn't expect that the late autumn would pass so soon.

Xanthus brought a huge fruit basket with him. Raeleigh stretched out her hand to take it over, but Xanthus refused.

"You don't have to do this. Let me handle it." Xanthus put the fruit basket aside as soon as he entered the ward. After that, he stopped in front of Cyntha, and looked at her. "Are you feeling better now?" Cynthia nodded. "I'm much better. Thank you for coming."

"I should have come earlier, but there was a conflict in the school involving a few students. I was with them for the past few days, and Raeleigh's grandmother needs someone to look after her. That's why I am only here after so long."

"Actually, my injury isn't that severe. Raeleigh has exaggerated it." Cynthia shot a look at Raeleigh. Occasionally, she felt that Xanthus would make a better spouse than Jepherson but love was blind. Sometimes, only the person whom they chose at first sight could be their life partner. By h*ll or high water, it needed to be that person and no one else. No matter how excellent the others were, it would do nothing to alter their loves.

Cynthia then glanced at Santiago, who was sitting aside and waiting for breakfast. She couldn't help but to feel that she was the prime example.

"I wasn't sure what you like, so I bought some fruits. I guess you guys haven't had breakfast yet. Let's have breakfast first."

Xanthus sat aside as he spoke. Cynthia had misunderstood him, but he did not attempt to explain herself.

Raeleigh sorted out breakfast before she asked Xanthus, "Have you had your breakfast?"

Xanthus answered, "Yes, I have. Your grandmother's appetite has been great recently. We will go out for an excursion in the morning, and then go home to have breakfast."

"Did she talk about me?" Raeleigh had not gone home for two weeks and she missed her.

Xanthus smiled. "No, she didn't."

Raeleigh froze for a moment. It wasn't that she was disappointed, but she did not expect for her grandmother to get along so well with Xanthus.

Just when Raeleigh had prepared Cynthia's food and was about to bring it to her, Xanthus stood up and went to the washroom, without closing the door, to wash his hands. By the time he came out, Raeleigh had sat down. He went over and took the bowl from Raeleigh. "Let me do it. You can have your breakfast."

Raeleigh stood up. At first, she intended to refuse, but for some reason, she seemed to have understood something through Xanthus's eyes, and she accepted his suggestion.

Xanthus walked up to Raeleigh's original place, prepared to feed Cynthia.

"It's alright, I can eat by myself." Cynthia wished that she could eat by herself, but Xanthus did not let go of his hand. Instead, he took a mouthful of food with the spoon and sent it to her mouth. "It's even more awkward if you keep rejecting. It's just a meal. Don't worry."

Hearing his words, Cynthia stole a glance at Santiago, who was having his breakfast with his head down. He did not look at her, which showed that he did not care about this, but... Cynthia hesitated for a moment before accepting Xanthus's offer, thinking that she shouldn't cause trouble for others.

However, it was an awkward breakfast for her. She was a vegetLexien, who rarely consumed meat in her daily life, but Xanthus kept feeding her with meat. He fed her one mouthful after another incessantly. She didn't want to appear like she was a picky eater, so she didn't turn him down. She wasn't a big eater, especially since she was hospitalized, her appetite had reduced further. However, she forced herself to finish the entire bowl. Xanthus filled up another half of the bowl after she had finished. Even though the portion was not big, it was difficult for her to finish it. Santiago would comment every day that she ate like a bird.

But right then...

Her upbringing didn't allow her to refuse Xanthus strongly, so her refusal was too subtle for him to take it seriously. As a result, she had to force herself to finish the extra portion.

As she sat on the bed, she felt that she was so full that she couldn't even swallow a mouthful of water.

Xanthus got up and stood aside. "You can get out of bed now. Try to come down and do some exercises."

Cynthia was thinking of doing that too. The doctor told her that it would be great if she could get out of bed and move around. It would help in her recovery.

She got out of bed and felt that she was enervated. Xanthus approached her and supported her with his hand. Raeleigh frowned slightly as she watched...

"Inhale, and then exhale. Take your time. You shouldn't stay in bed all the time. If you don't move around more, then your legs will become stiff in the future, and it's bad for your blood circulation." Xanthus was a doctor, and he was sagacious when it came to treating patients. Everyone understood this except for Cynthia herself.

Raeleigh cast a glance at Santiago, who got up to wash his hands after finishing his breakfast. Then, he came back and looked at Xanthus as he wiped his hands dry.

Afterwards, Santiago walked over and took Cynthia's hand from Xanthus. He held her hand with both of his hands to assist her. The two of them paced back and forth in the ward without caring for the presence of the others, as if they were dancing in their own world.

Only then did Raeleigh bring Xanthus out of the room.

They sat down outside of the ward. Raeleigh said, "The doctor said that it will take more than three months for her to recuperate, and she needs to be hospitalized for at least a month. It's very troublesome." "Don't worry about your grandmother. I will look after her." Xanthus knew Raeleigh's concern, and he offered his help. Raeleigh nodded at his reply.
