Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 1255 To Love or

Raeleigh slept all night. She woke up at dawn, but it was actually already seven o'clock since it was winter.

Raeleigh usually got up at six o'clock, but she didn't get up until seven o'clock that day because she slept late the day before. She had everything she needed in the room. Raeleigh stood up and took a bath. Then, she opened the door and walked out.

When Stuart saw her, he walked over and told her, "Last night, Madam Paige fainted because of a fit of anxiety. The young master didn't come over because of this. He told me to inform you about this, Young Madam Raeleigh, since it was quite late last night to inform you about it."

"Stuart, I'm not some young madam. Don't call me that anymore."

"Ah... I understand."

He'll try his best.

"I'm going home now. I've already called for a car. It should be here soon..."

"The young master will come to see you later. It's the weekend, so he intends for you to stay here in the Fragrance Garden."

"What if I insist on leaving?"

Raeleigh had a blank face and was relieved. This had nothing to do with Stuart. It was useless getting angry.

"The young master isn't malicious."

Regardless, things were going well for Jepherson. Raeleigh stopped talking and simply turned around to sit down.

Someone soon brought some breakfast for Raeleigh. She watched TV for a while after eating her breakfast and she then called Xanthus. After that, Jepherson finally showed up.

When she saw him, she put down the remote control in her hand and turned off the TV.

"Have you eaten?" Jepherson asked as soon as he entered. He then began to change his shoes and clothes. He was exhausted.

"Yes," Raeleigh replied curtly. He walked over and sat down beside her. He laid his head down on her lap and sighed in relief.

He stared into Raeleigh's bottomless eyes as she lowered her head. All of this happened so suddenly, and she didn't have time to respond. He had a smile on his face as he said, "There's really nothing between me and Stella."

Raeleigh froze. "It's alright. I don't want to know anything about you."

"But your eyes say otherwise. You look sad and distressed."

He raised his hand to pull his collar up and moved up a little. He rolled up his sleeves and said, "Put your clothes on. It's a little cold here."

Raeleigh glanced to the side. There was a coat on the other side of the room. She took the coat with her hand and covered herself up. She wanted to continue watching TV.

"I have a headache," Jepherson said faintly.

Raeleigh pondered this for a moment and raised her hand to massage his neck. Jepherson eventually fell asleep. He was breathing heavily.

When he fell asleep, Raeleigh thought of leaving. However, his head moved a couple of times whenever she tried to move.

Then, he said, "Don't go."

After that, he continued to rest on her lap.

Raeleigh leaned back against the couch. She had nothing to do and couldn't leave, so she could only stare blankly at the TV. Jepherson slept throughout the entire day and woke up in the evening. She called his name constantly to wake him up.

"Young Master Harvey, Madam Paige has asked you to have dinner with her. Miss Doyle is also waiting outside." Stuart wasn't expecting Stella to find her way here. "Tell her that I'm tired and that I'm sleeping. Don't disturb me if it isn't urgent." Jepherson dismissed Stella's request. He got up only after Stella had left.

Stuart went towards the door. Jepherson asked his staff to buy some ingredients and went to the kitchen to cook for Raeleigh.

She couldn't escape from this place. He wanted her to accompany him in the kitchen.

"Chop the basil for me. Be careful with that." Jepherson was hungry, and Raeleigh could tell. But she didn't expect him to have cooked an entire bowl of pasta. Raeleigh was also very hungry and could only cooperate reluctantly.

After chopping up the basil, Raeleigh handed it to Jepherson. He prepared the pasta and mixed both of them in a bowl.

Raeleigh fixed her eyes on the pasta but she didn't move. He then handed the bowl to her.

"Try it."

Raeleigh served herself a bowl of pasta. She then turned around and sat down. She was entirely focused on her meal.

It really was tastier than the ones she could buy outside. This was as good as something a five-star hotel chef would make. Raeleigh considered breaking up with Jepherson while she ate. Should she come up with a plan or should she just ignore him? Things would eventually fade away after enough time went by.

"After I'm done with these noodles, we'll put the past behind us. Just wait, you'll be my wife soon. I'll announce our wedding soon."

Jepherson said this after finishing up his pasta. Raeleigh was shocked.

"I never said I'd marry you. We broke up."

"This has nothing to do with me wanting to marry you, and I'm not asking."

"You barbLexien."

Raeleigh had never seen a barbLexien like him. Her eyes burned like torches.

"I don't want to hurt anyone, but I can't lose you either," Jepherson spoke faintly, but it didn't sound mild, instead it had a determined tone. When people looked at his face, they would feel a sense of prestige instead of rage.

Raeleigh was already unhappy, but right then, she was even more so. However, she didn't say anything and simply stared at him. She lowered her head and ate some more pasta. Then, she stood up and washed the dishes.

The both of them had nothing more to say, but wherever she went, Jepherson followed.

After dinner, it was dark and Raeleigh was ready to head home.

"It's time for me to go home. I had plans this weekend. It's your fault that you imprisoned me here against my will. I think it's time for you to take me home." Raeleigh wasn't angry anymore. They were talking again.

Jepherson however, was still adamant.

Looking at her, he realized that it was getting dark outside.

"I don't want you to go back."

"That's not up to you. I have to go back."

"Are you sure?"

His eyes burned as he approached her. Raeleigh felt a sense of danger and took two steps back. He continued his advance and wanted to get even closer. She felt oppressed by his heavy breath and had to put her hands up to stop him. "Don't come any closer."

"Who do you think you are?"

As soon as Jepherson said that, his huge figure had already pressed Raeleigh's small body against the wall.

Raeleigh raised her hand to push him away, but he didn't move at all. Instead, the corners of his mouth curved up into a seductive smile.

Raeleigh gulped. She could sense that his body was brimming with danger, which made her own body tense up.

"Jepherson... You're just too much. Love is given freely, but you've forced me to do it with you. Do you think that's the right way to do this?"

"But I can't help it. You've always avoided me. How can I accept that?" Jepherson placed his hands on her waist. He looked at her with doleful eyes. An evil smile spread across his face. Seeing this, Raeleigh's heart beat faster and she grew worried.

Raeleigh thought about this for a while and said, "So, if I did it willingly, then you won't force me into it?"

"If things have truly run its course, then naturally I would let go, but we love each other, and you love me."

"I don't love you."

Raeleigh denied it immediately. He sneered. "Do you intend to test my patience?"

She took a deep breath. "No."

"You answered so quickly. You said you didn't love me."

He gritted his teeth and glared at her. He lowered his head and kissed her very gently.
