Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 1200 Woman and Sister

Deanna walked towards Rossie. Raeleigh stood up and said to Rossie, "I'm indebted to Zorion and Deanna. I came here today to return the money. I hope I didn't cause any misunderstandings."

Rossie was smart. She knew that Raeleigh was honest from the look in her eyes. Ever since their first meeting, she knew that Raeleigh had no feelings for Zorion. However, Zorion was different. Although he had never admitted it, he'd be lying if he said he did not have feelings for her.

Rossie did not want to get involved in his affairs. He had the freedom to do what he wished to. It was none of her business and she knew she would leave him eventually.

Rossie continued walking down the stairs and said, "I'm heading outside to the courtyard. Please continue."

It was rare for Rossie to have free time. Usually, she would not be able to go out.

Rossie stepped out into the courtyard and started walking around its perimeter. The Atkinson family's courtyard was huge. Although she did not like the family home, she found the courtyard very beautiful. Deanna held Rossie's arm and said, "Rossie, you don't know my brother. He didn't mean it. All of us respect Jepherson. He regards Jepherson as his brother and he will never do anything to hurt him. Zorion likes Raeleigh, but it is not love. I'm sure you know that he likes you more."

Rossie turned to look at Deanna. That was the first time she had heard this.

"It's my body that he lusts over, not me." Rossie truly thought so. She wondered if Zorion would still be interested in her if she suddenly became an old woman.

Deanna was stunned for a moment. She then hurriedly shook her head. "No, my brother is not a superficial person."

"Greed is a terrifying thing. Deanna... you have never experienced it, so you wouldn't understand. A greedy man is truly terrifying."

Rossie would sometimes pass out from Zorion's torment. If only she wasn't so terrified of him, then she wouldn't have kept quiet about the treatment she was receiving and would have left him a long time ago. Deanna was in a dilemma. Her brother wasn't that terrifying, was he? No matter how terrifying he was, she doubted he was as terrifying as Jacky.

After thinking for a while, Deanna said, "My Mom once said that everyone makes mistakes. However, you must not immediately write them off. Instead, they should be given a chance to correct their mistakes. So, you have to be considerate of my brother. He might be a little arrogant, but I honestly think that he treats you very well."

"I am his sister. Before you showed up in his life, did you know how much he doted on me? Every day, he would agree to all my requests without hesitation, regardless of what I wanted to do. However, he never once brought me out alone after he met you. He would always bring you along."

"Rossie, I really do think that my brother treats you well. He is very sincere."

"Can't you feel it? He would ask for your permission every time before he goes out. He had never done this before. He would beam whenever people compliment that the two of you are a perfect match. You are all he sees. He just doesn't realize it yet."

"He may not know it, but I think you ought to know."

Deanna was naive. Rossie looked at Deanna and said, "Your brother has neglected you because of me. Don't you have a single ounce of hatred towards me?"

Rossie came from a place where a man was surrounded by many women. It was a place where people tended to plot against each other. She knew that women were best at competing for affection and jealousy, and that was why she asked.

However, Deanna immediately shook her head and said, "Those feelings had never occurred to me."

"Then, you are really kind to your brother." In other words, she was very naive, she thought.

Rossie walked to a place and knelt down to observe the ants on the ground. Winter was coming, but the ants were still busy working. They were busy storing food for the winter.

Rossie knelt down and pointed at the ants on the ground. "Do the ants look small?"

Deanna walked over and crouched down. "Yes."

"If a small ant can survive, then why can't I?" Rossie asked Deanna. She paused for a moment. She then looked up at Rossie and asked, "What do you mean?"

"I am human and I wish to have my own life too. I am not your brother's plaything. He is allowed to do whatever he wants to me. I will leave eventually. Deanna, look at these ants. They are so small. Are you willing to kill them?"

Deanna shook her head. "No."

"I'm only fifteen years old, yet I am forced to sleep with your brother every night," Rossie said. It was only then that Deanna stopped replying. After a long silence, she finally asked, "Do you really dislike my brother?"

From Deanna's perspective, it wasn't entirely her brother's problem that they were sleeping together. It was just like Jacky and her. If she hated him so much, then she would have killed herself rather than sleep with him.

If Jacky was an 80-year-old old man, then she would rather die. Since she was willing to sleep with her brother every day rather than killing herself, she probably did not hate him that much.

Rossie turned her face away. "I do like him occasionally, but it doesn't mean that he could force me to have s*x with him. I am a person, not a kitten nor a puppy. Even an animal could run away when it is unhappy, am I right?"

"You are right, but my brother is sincere. He just doesn't know... how..."

Deanna tried to find the right words and finally said, "... how to love you! That's right! He does not know how to love you!"

"He is your brother. Regardless of what he does, he is still a good person in your eyes. But I disagree."

Raeleigh watched Deanna and Rossie leave before sitting back on the couch. She said, "You will hurt Miss Lautner with your actions. You should go out and explain it to her."

"That's my business. Don't tell me what to do. Take back the money. I don't want to talk about this anymore. You may leave now." Zorion stood up and turned to head back upstairs. Raeleigh took a look at the bank card on the table and looked at Santiago. She knew he must have a solution to this. That was why she brought him here.

As expected, Santiago reached out and took the bank card. Then, he went out into the courtyard.

Raeleigh and Cynthia followed him out. Santiago had already made his way to Deanna. He then handed her the bank card.

"Inside the card is seven million dollars that Raeleigh is returning to Zorion. One of you is Zorion's woman and the other, his sister. Whoever that needs the money can have the card and consider the debt repaid. The PIN is 177156."

Deanna's eyes opened wide with surprise. She said, "We can't accept it. My brother will be mad."

Santiago did not speak. Rossie reached out and took the bank card.
