Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 1204 No One Is Allowed To Leave

Raeleigh remained silent the whole time Novalie talked. Novalie felt tired by the time she was done. She said to Jepherson, "This is my house. You're not welcome here. Please leave."

Novalie dragged Raeleigh into the room as she spoke. Once they entered the room, she heaved a sigh and said, "You should get away from here. Anywhere is better than this place. It's pointless for you to stay. It would only make things worse."

Raeleigh closed the door and helped her grandmother to the bed. She sat opposite Novalie and did not speak. Novalie looked at her helplessly. "Raeleigh, you don't have to worry about me. I don't mind if you put me in a nursing home."

Raeleigh shook her head. "No way."

"I'm getting old. I will be a burden to you." Novalie sighed and thought that if not for herself, then Raeleigh would not have been tied down, and her future would not have been restricted. After lying down for a while, Novalie soon nodded off. Raeleigh opened the door and went out. Surely enough, Jepherson had not left. So, she immediately returned to the room. She stayed in the room until Xanthus came home. Xanthus and Jepherson were engaged in what looked like an unpleasant conversation. Soon, Jepherson was asked to leave.

After dinner, Raeleigh did not go back to her former residence. Instead, she stayed and accompanied her grandmother.

No one else came to bother Raeleigh that night and she was finally able to get a good night's sleep.

The next morning, Raeleigh received a phone call from Jepherson. He called to inform her that he was waiting for her outside.

Raeleigh was a little hesitant at first, but later on, she decided to go down and see him. She spotted Jepherson's car as soon as she arrived downstairs. When Stuart saw her, he immediately got out of the car, opened the door, and invited her to enter the car. Raeleigh stood outside, unwilling to oblige. She asked Jepherson, "Anything?"

"Come on in." Jepherson's face darkened. His expression was cold as he waited for Raeleigh to enter the car. Raeleigh said after a long time, "If you want to say anything, then here is as good a place as any. I'm not getting in, and I don't have all day for this."

"So, you want me to leave, is that it?" Jepherson suddenly turned around to look at Raeleigh. Raeleigh stopped talking and immediately entered the car. He was giving her a death stare.

Raeleigh had no idea what she had done to have offended him. However, judging by Jepherson's current attitude, it was apparent that he was here for an interrogation.

Stuart quickly closed the door and entered the car. Jepherson asked Raeleigh, "Care to explain this to me?"

Raeleigh lowered her head and skimmed the newspaper and magazine thrown on her lap. She saw two people on the front page, holding hands in the middle of a crowd. Flynt was trying to protect her from the public. However one looked at it, it could not be explained with a "nothing".

Raeleigh stared at the picture and wondered why there wasn't a picture of her trying to shrug her hand free from Flynt's. At that time, Flynt had grabbed her wrist and dragged her into the courthouse. She had tried to wriggle free from his hold, but she failed. At first glance, it looked like they were willingly holding hands, with Raeleigh locking her gaze on Flynt.

Raeleigh simply asked, "What's with it?"

Jepherson looked over and met Raeleigh's fierce eyes. It looked as if she was not afraid of him at all.

"Are you really asking me?" Raw anger shot through him. Raeleigh looked away and said, "I'm allowed to act according to my own free will, and this is a fact that has not bothered you in the least bit. If you can't bring yourself to see this, then don't."

"I dare you to say it again," Jepherson said through his clenched teeth. Raeleigh turned to look at him, calmly. "My stance remains the same, whatever I do..."

Just as Raeleigh opened her mouth, Jepherson immediately pulled her into his arms and lowered his head to kiss her, cutting her off.

Raeleigh struggled to jerk her head away, but Jepherson was dead set on not letting her go. The more she struggled, the harder he kissed. Raeleigh wanted to reach out to push him away but he grabbed her hands. When Raeleigh stopped struggling, he opened his mouth and continued kissing her, intertwining his tongue with hers.

Both Stuart and the driver were caught off guard by this scene and did not dare to look behind.

By the time the car pulled over, Raeleigh appearance's was dishevelled. Jepherson took off his coat and covered Raeleigh, in case someone saw something. Raeleigh was so furious that she raised her hand and slapped him. "You have crossed the line."

Raeleigh left her hand print on Jepherson's face. After that, she opened the door and got off. Only then did she realize that she had arrived at the entrance of Harvey Manor.

Jepherson then got out of the car and someone came out to greet him. Then, he turned around and looked at Raeleigh. He was a little breathless from his brief kissing session with Raeleigh on the way. He had wanted to appease Raeleigh, but he couldn't. Instead, he had hurt her.

Raeleigh wrapped Jepherson's coat tightly around her as she thought about what had happened in the car. If she went in, then she knew that Paige would know what had happened. Therefore, Raeleigh neither wanted to go in, nor did she have any obligation to.

Raeleigh turned around and was about to leave when Jepherson stepped to the other side and stopped her. He bent down and gathered her in his arms, and was about to carry her into Harvey Manor. "Jepherson, you can't do this to me. We're not a couple anymore. I am not bound to you anymore." Raeleigh struggled. Jepherson gritted his teeth and said, "Not bound to me, you say? No f*cking way. You belong to me."

"No, I do not."

"Well, I don't know about that, though. Your objection is meaningless."

He steadied Raeleigh in his arms and started walking towards Harvey Manor. Raeleigh struggled in his arms and wanted to get away, but he hugged her tightly and did not let go. When the people in the manor saw this scene, they all lowered their heads and did not dare to look.

Paige had just finished blowing off her top, claiming that Flynt had taken Santiago's girl away. However, it seemed like that was not the only case then. It seemed that Jepherson had also invoked her wrath. Jepherson carried Raeleigh all the way into the manor. Santiago had just arrived with Cynthia.

While the two were fighting, Santiago dragged Cynthia into the manor with vigorous strides.

Paige was seething at that time, and her anger became all the more uncontainable as soon as she saw the front page of the newspaper.

She was mad that her grandson could not control his girlfriend.

She was simmering with anger when she heard Raeleigh yelling for Jepherson to put her down. However, Jepherson refused and carried her all the way to Paige.

Once Jepherson put Raeleigh down, only then did she keep quiet. She wrapped the coat tightly around her body.

Paige's expression turned grim at that moment. "What in God's name is going on with the two of you? Why are you wearing Jerry's... Jepherson's coat?"

Paige looked furious. She was starting to get suspicious.

Raeleigh tried to explain herself, but Jepherson walked over and stood beside her. "Raeleigh and I like each other. We have been together for a long time, but you've always wanted me and Deanna to be together, so I asked Santiago to cover for me. Now, I can't hide it anymore."

Paige kept her eyes fixed on Raeleigh as Jepherson spoke. Then, she frowned. "If that's the case, then care to explain what's written in the newspaper? Now, there's a picture of you and Flynt together. How can you be so unfaithful? This is a disgrace to the Harvey family, and now you're planning become a Harvey? Don't get any delusional ideas now."

Raeleigh said, "With all due respect, don't get me wrong. Jepherson and I have broken up. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to intrude. If you'll excuse me."

Raeleigh took off the coat and handed it to Jepherson. After straightening her clothes, she turned around and was about to leave when Jepherson pulled Raeleigh and said, "Not so fast."

Raeleigh was about to leave but Jepherson stopped her. "No one is allowed to leave, not before we set things straight."
