Go After My Ex-wife -
Chapter 1220 Long Distance Call
When Raeleigh and Xanthus arrived at the university campus, they chatted for a while before going their separate ways. Raeleigh made her way towards the lecture halls for her first class of the day. Raeleigh thought that Jepherson would still be in the hospital, taking care of his grandmother and would not be able to teach today.
However...
Before Raeleigh arrived at the lecture hall, Flynt appeared in front of her with his backpack strapped to his back.
He was dressed in smart casual attire, his hands in his pockets. As soon as he appeared, Raeleigh realized that he was quite a popular guy in school.
Flynt was currently surrounded by a lot of people who wanted to talk to him.
In the past, Raeleigh had only focused all her attention on Santiago and had no idea that Flynt was popular.
Raeleigh hesitated for a moment. The group of people were blocking the entrance to the building. So, she had to walk around them in order to enter.
It was only then that Flynt noticed Raeleigh. When he saw her, he immediately said to the people around him, "I'm sorry, everyone. I need to consult my lecturer urgently about something. Please excuse me." Raeleigh paid this no mind, but the crowd around Flynt dispersed in a huff.
Soon after, Flynt managed to catch up with Raeleigh.
"Were you annoyed?" Flynt came over and asked Raeleigh. She casted a glance at him and replied, "No."
"You're such a liar," Flynt said as a smile appeared on his face. However, Raeleigh did not say anything in reply.
All of a sudden, Flynt mentioned, "I'm here for class."
Raeleigh thought for a moment before blurting, "Is it because of your family?"
"No, I came because of you."
Raeleigh was not at all surprised by Flynt's words. It sounded cliche, as if something out of a romance novel or a TV show. Thus, Raeleigh did not reply as she continued walking.
"You don't look surprised," Flynt said as he followed behind Raeleigh. Raeleigh posed a question, "Why would I be?"
"I thought you'd be surprised to hear that I came to school for you. It seems that I've set my hopes too high, and you were able to see through my intentions."
"Everyone has an agenda, one way or another. What you do has nothing to do with me."
Raeleigh walked through the door of the lecture hall. She was Tristany for class, so there were only a few students in the hall. She walked to her designated seat, sat down, took out a book and started reading quietly. Flynt stood at the door for a while before making his way to another lecture hall.
There were many whom Raeleigh did not want to see here while there were also a lot of people who Flynt did not get along with. So, it was a good thing for him to leave.
Raeleigh remained in her seat as the rest of the students slowly entered the hall. At first, they were surprised to see Raeleigh, but their initial shock dissipated soon after.
Deanna followed Zorion and Rossie to the university and was delighted when she saw Raeleigh. Taking the seat directly behind her, she tried starting a conversation with Raeleigh. However, not long after, she went quiet.
It was because Jacky had entered the hall. The moment he appeared, Deanna seemed to have transformed into a different person. She was so scared that she immediately fell silent. Jacky sat in the back of the class and kept his eyes on Deanna.
Soon, the class began and the only person absent was Santiago. Normally, Raeleigh couldn't be bothered about him. However, she found herself wondering what Santiago was doing at that very moment. As she was deep in her thoughts, her cell phone suddenly rang.
The lecturer turned around and scanned the class for the culprit. Raeleigh hurriedly excused herself and went outside to take the call.
It was Santiago; he made a long-distance call to her.
Raeleigh was on cloud nine to hear from him. With that, she quickly composed herself before answering.
"Hi!"
"Do you miss me?" Santiago said frivolously as soon as he heard Raeleigh's voice, sending Raeleigh into a long bout of silence.
Then, he asked, "Did anyone bully you?"
Raeleigh muttered something in reply. With that, Santiago immediately asked, "Who bullied you?"
"No one. But I did anger your grandmother and caused her to be sent to the hospital."
Santiago asked, slightly amused, "So it was you?"
"And?" Raeleigh was unhappy to hear that. It sounded as if Santiago was undermining her.
Santiago sneered and Raeleigh immediately knew that he was indeed looking down on her.
"Why aren't you being flirty?" Santiago laughed, his voice sounding very deep. Sometimes, Raeleigh had her doubts about him being seventeen years old.
"Stop being rude," Raeleigh said. Santiago was silent for a while, then he said, "Who's being rude?"
"You."
"Hmph!"
Then, Santiago immediately hung up the phone. Raeleigh only realized that he had done so when she heard sounds of beeping.
Putting her phone away, she stood outside for a while and did not return to the hall. She wandered aimlessly along the corridor and found a place to sit. The weather was cold but she had not thought to bring an extra layer of clothing. Sitting on the bench, she reminisced about the time Jepherson took out his coat and draped it around her shoulders.
Although Santiago and Jepherson were brothers, Santiago was a person who liked making things clear. Jepherson, on the other hand, was very different as he never liked clarifying anything.
Raeleigh felt that she and Jepherson were the same kind of people.
This was why they were not a good fit as their personalities were too similar.
Raeleigh looked up at the sky and smiled. She was very lucky to have met Jepherson and would never forget him. What they shared was something that could not be changed. However, the past would still eventually be forgotten. Why would she want to trouble herself so?
She was going to let bygones be bygones and move on with life.
Things had come full circle, and it was time to look forward.
Raeleigh turned around and was about to leave when she saw Flynt, standing in front of her with his hands in pockets. Raeleigh froze for a moment then asked, "Have you been following me?" This was very possible since she had to walk past his lecture hall.
Flynt only came out when he saw Raeleigh outside.
"You looked like you were in a trance. I was worried, so I thought I'd come and check on you." Flynt walked towards Raeleigh, frowning. "Are you alright?"
"Yes."
...
"I wasn't in a trance. I just came out to get some fresh air. I'm fine now and I'm going to find Xanthus. You should go back to class."
Raeleigh then turned around and walked towards Xanthus's office. Flynt paused for a moment before deciding to follow her.
Turning around, she looked at Flynt, "Was I not clear enough?"
Flynt laughed, "What? Do you own this place? You can't tell me what to do."
Raeleigh thought about his words and fell silent. A moment later, she turned around and continued walking. Flynt followed behind religiously until she arrived at Xanthus's office. After she entered the office, he turned around and headed back to class. It was then he realized that Zorion and Deanna had been following him.
