Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 1252 Uncomfortable

There was no need for Raeleigh to look for Xanthus when she walked out of the building. She glanced over at him, who was waiting outside, and she then followed after him. Jepherson wasn't anxious but he followed her all the way to the car anyway. Raeleigh looked at Xanthus as she opened the car door. Jepherson stopped and looked at Raeleigh, who didn't look back at him. Then, he explained to Xanthus, "Raeleigh fell asleep, and that's why she was still here so late."

"It's best not to let such a thing happen again. I wouldn't want anything bad to happen to my family."

Xanthus didn't need to say much. He turned away, opened the door, and got in the car.

Jepherson opened the door and sat in the car.

"What are you doing?"

Raeleigh didn't think that he would get into the car. She had a surprised look on her face.

"My car broke down. I'll need to spend the night at your place." Jepherson insisted.

"Jepherson, you..."

"I am your boss, by the way."

Before Raeleigh could finish speaking, Jepherson was in her way again. She looked at Xanthus, who looked at Jepherson in the rearview mirror. He then started the car and drove away.

Jepherson had left his coat in the office. He managed to take out his cell phone earlier and had asked Stuart to retrieve the coat. He put down his phone and looked at Raeleigh.

Raeleigh stared at the scenery outside without saying a word. Exhausted, Jepherson leaned back against the car seat. He raised his head and narrowed his eyes as though he was sitting in his own car. Xanthus glanced at Jepherson several times on their journey, and noticed that he had fallen asleep on the way.

When they arrived at their desNorahtion, the car shook slightly. Jepherson opened his eyes and woke up.

As he saw Raeleigh get out of the car, he also got off from the other side.

Xanthus drove the car into the garage. When he came back, he had a bag of vegetables in his hand. Raeleigh knew that he would have gone shopping. So, she waited for him and helped carry some of the vegetables inside.

When they entered the kitchen, Jepherson and Xanthus both called out, "Are you here, Grandma?"

"Yes, I'm here and I'm fine."

Xanthus had nothing against Jepherson, but he was uncomfortable with his sudden change in attitude.

As he entered through the door, Jepherson looked around the villa. He put on some slippers and went straight to the kitchen to help out. Raeleigh was too unconcerned to say anything. What was Jepherson planning to do?

Well, Xanthus was in the kitchen, so he wouldn't do anything shameless.

"Raeleigh..."

Raeleigh was cooking when Xanthus called for her.

He turned around and looked at her. Xanthus said, "Go and change out of your work attire and take a shower. I'll wake you up for dinner later."

Raeleigh looked at herself and realized that she was still in her work attire.

After she turned around and went back to her room, Jepherson turned around and followed her. Xanthus quickly stopped him.

"Please wait here, Mr. Harvey."

Jepherson turned to look at Xanthus, who was cutting up the vegetables.

"Love isn't some kind of restraint you have over someone. If you love her, then you will take care of her like you would a younger sister, not by getting revenge."

Xanthus placed down the knife in his hand and looked at Jepherson. He spoke to him like an elder brother would.

"Do you believe that you two still belong to each other?"

Jepherson frowned. "I do love her."

"But she is a living, breathing, human being."

Jepherson frowned deeply. He was extremely unhappy with Xanthus.

"When you should have treasured something, you didn't. After you've lost it, all of a sudden you want it again. Raeleigh couldn't accept that. Not because you love her, but because you care too much." "Are you kidding me?" Jepherson's handsome face turned grim. Xanthus laughed. "In fact, Raeleigh had made the same mistake as you before. But she was lucky that Santiago and I had stopped her, so that she didn't make such a huge mistake."

"But you didn't. It still happened anyway."

"The problem is that you reacted to this the same way Raeleigh did. You've kept everything in your heart. You would rather face it alone than talk to us about it to solve it."

"Raeleigh was terrified. She was afraid that if something like this really happened, then she would go through the same pain again. Since it was you two, that's why she thought it would happen again." "Instead of being bound together in pain and suffering, we should just let this go and move on. We'll be better off this way."

"Bullsh*t!"

After saying that, Jepherson turned around and walked out. Xanthus walked out of the kitchen and was about to say something but Jepherson had already gone upstairs. He went to Raeleigh's room and knocked on the door.

Raeleigh didn't come out, so he waited. When she still hadn't come out, he tried to open the door, but it was locked. So, he went back downstairs and into the kitchen.

Xanthus was still cooking in the kitchen, and Jepherson looked around for something to do.

"Don't use that, she doesn't want to eat that tonight."

Jepherson had just found the beancurd. Before he could take it out, Xanthus stopped him. When he turned around, Xanthus said, "Some things aren't set in stone." Jepherson held the beancurd in his hand and proceeded to prepare it anyway, regardless of whether it tasted good or not.

Raeleigh didn't come down to have dinner. Only Xanthus and Jepherson were seated at the table.

Jepherson didn't eat anything. He checked her door several times during the meal.

After they had eaten, Jepherson didn't leave. He simply sat on the couch and waited for her to come down.

"When will you be leaving, Mr. Harvey?"

Jepherson looked up at Xanthus. "I don't intend to."

"This is my home."

"What about it?"

Xanthus felt that Jepherson was in need of a good spanking.

Xanthus didn't want to start any trouble, so he went upstairs. Jepherson stayed downstairs and stayed up until midnight. He didn't leave until he received a call from Stella.

Raeleigh heard that Paige was admitted into the hospital because of a heart disease when she got up the next morning.

Raeleigh was having her breakfast as she looked up at Xanthus. "How do you know that?"

"Stuart came and told me earlier this morning. He left the house just after midnight."

"Oh, I see."

Raeleigh didn't ask anything else. She was very happy to go to work that day and had a rare smile on her face.

"Anyway, Paige is sick. My sister may be kind-hearted, but she still takes pleasure in the misfortune of others. It's because I know her so well, like a bitter rival, that I know she would have prepared for this. It makes me feel at ease."

Xanthus wore a smile on his face. He hadn't seen Raeleigh smile in the past few days, so naturally he had to take the chance to tease her.

Raeleigh leaned against the side, reading a book. "Everyone has their own path to travel on. Whatever happened between me and Jepherson was a huge misunderstanding. That's all over now. Suits us both better this way."

"Then, why did you come back?"

Raeleigh thought about it for a moment. "To face it."

Xanthus slowly brought the car to a stop. "If so, then I sincerely wish you the best."

Raeleigh got out of the car and walked into the company building after Xanthus left.

She thought that since Jepherson wasn't around that day, she could finally work in peace. She didn't expect to run into Stella just as she turned around.
