Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 1269 Family Feud

Raeleigh woke up after dark. She opened her eyes and saw Jepherson sleeping beside her. When she moved, he immediately got up and held her. She looked at him, who had opened his eyes. They stayed silently in each other's arms for a long time.

"Are we good now?" Jepherson stood up, kissed Raeleigh's neck, and gently stroked Raeleigh's leg with his palm. Raeleigh had intended to push Jepherson away, but he didn't give Raeleigh any chance. Raeleigh wanted to say something but Jepherson covered Raeleigh's mouth. When Raeleigh tried to struggle, he held onto Raeleigh's leg.

Raeleigh had never been so passive. From Raeleigh's expectation, love... was not like this.

Quietly, Raeleigh seemed to have gone through torture. She was manipulated by Jepherson and was trapped in the palm of his hand. When Jepherson stopped sweating and kissed her again, she turned to face the other side, holding the quilt in a daze.

She liked Jepherson. Although the child was gone, she did not deny that she still loved him as much as before. But what she wanted was not this feeling. She didn't want to be taken by force and she hated the fact that he didn't even acknowledge her feelings.

Jepherson hugged her from the back and kissed her shoulder. Raeleigh did not move. All her strength and thoughts had been consumed by Jepherson.

After holding her for a while, Jepherson got up. Raeleigh got up too and went to take a bath. After changing into clean clothes, she put what she had worn into a bag and was ready to go back and wash them. "Put it down. I'll ask someone to wash it later." Jepherson stood at the door and stared at Raeleigh.

He knew he had taken too much, which made her so tired that her voice was raspy.

But as soon as he came into contact with her, he would go crazy. He also wanted to control himself so badly. He wasn't a ruthless guy, but sometimes, he just couldn't control his feelings for her, even the slightest touch from her could make his hormones hit through the roof.

Raeleigh held the bag in her hand. "There's no need to trouble them. Besides, I don't like people washing my clothes. I can do it by myself."

Knowing Raeleigh's temper, Jepherson said nothing more. Raeleigh then followed him out.

Coming down from their room, Jepherson had been walking slowly, waiting for Raeleigh to come downstairs. Raeleigh walked slowly, which showed that she was still a little uncomfortable.

Jepherson would always be upset when he did something like this, but he didn't regret it.

If a man failed to accomplish even such a minor task, then there was really nothing to brag about.

But after he had done it, he still felt that he should be gentler next time, so as not to make women suffer.

Raeleigh came downstairs. Jepherson had already asked someone to put some food on the table. He handed Raeleigh's bag to Stuart and took Raeleigh to the dining table. Raeleigh sat down and looked at al the food on the table, and they even prepared red wine.

"I don't drink."

"I know, but am I not allowed to drink?" Jepherson sat opposite Raeleigh. Raeleigh regretted saying that, as she shouldn't have meddled in other people's business just then.

Jepherson gave Raeleigh some dishes and said, "Eat more, or else, you will lose your strength."

"It's already late and we haven't even gone to the hospital yet." Raeleigh took a small bowl and reminded Jepherson. Jepherson said with a funny face, "I think he has finished his food." "Has it been delivered?"

Raeleigh held the bowl but she could not eat. She should have thought of it.

Raeleigh kept quiet throughout the meal. After she finished her meal, she was ready to leave. Jepherson walked to the door and stretched his arms. Raeleigh was about to talk to him when a car from the Harvey family stopped at the door.

Raeleigh stared at the car, which was almost the same as Jepherson's. It seemed like her plan to go back was close to impossible.

The car stopped and even Stuart gasped. Wasn't this Grandma's car?

"Young Master Jepherson." Stuart turned to look at Jepherson. Why was there no one in the hospital to inform him that the Old Madam had returned?

"I got it." Jepherson blinked his emotionless eyes and immediately stopped Stuart's words. He went to Raeleigh and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything."

Raeleigh raised her head to look at Jepherson. "Will you protect me?"

"Am I not able to do so?" Jepherson lowered his eyes, and was calm and composed.

Raeleigh did not answer, but she turned around to see Stella getting out of the car. She knew...

Stella froze for a moment when she saw Raeleigh, as if she did not expect Raeleigh to be in Harvey Manor. But she nodded her head and turned to help Paige get out of the car.

"Grandma, be careful." Stella helped Paige get out of the car. Paige nodded and looked at Raeleigh with impatience. When she saw Raeleigh, her face suddenly fell. She said, "Why are you here? Who invited you to come here?"

Raeleigh remained silent, staring at Paige without answering.

"Are you dumb? You didn't even respond when I asked you. What kind of upbringing is this? Your parents...'

"Grandma, if you're tired, then stop speaking, don't hurt your body." Jepherson immediately interrupted Paige. Jepherson may seem calm, but he was fuming inside.

Paige was fine before listening to Jepherson's words. When she heard them, his expression immediately turned ugly. She looked coldly at Jepherson. "Don't think that I can't go and complain to your father when he's sick... and your mother too. I'm not dead yet."

Paige was so angry that her whole body was shaking. Stella, who was beside her, quickly patted her chest and persuaded her. "Don't be angry, Grandma. Let's go in first."

"Don't worry, Stella. Grandma will help you fight for what should be yours." Paige snorted as she spoke. She grabbed Stella's hand and walked into the Harvey family's public hall.

Stella glanced at Raeleigh and Jepherson before she went in, showing signs of guilt.

Raeleigh wore no expression on her face, with her eyes fixed on her feet. She was treated like a dirty, despicable mouse by Paige. What else could she say?

Jepherson didn't say anything either. He held Raeleigh's hand and was ready to leave. Paige had just walked a few steps, and she turned around to look at Jepherson and Raeleigh. She stopped them and said, "Wait."

Raeleigh and Jepherson stopped and turned to look at Paige. Stella also stared at her with a strange look.

Paige thought for a moment and stared at Raeleigh with her cold eyes. "It's not impossible for you to enter past Harvey Manor's gates. But it depends on whether or not you have the ability." Jepherson gritted his teeth. "Whether she has the ability or not is something I have the final say on. It has nothing to do with you."

"Hmph, don't think that I'm not aware that your parents are partial towards you. Don't forget, I'm not dead yet. If you want to marry her, then you have to promise me that you will let her and Stella enter the family together. She will be the second wife while Stella will be your first wife, or else..."

"Never." Without waiting for Raeleigh's response, Jepherson immediately refused. Moreover, he was cold. Even if it was Paige, he would not give in to her.

Paige was not surprised. She knew what kind of temper her grandson had.

Suddenly, she showed a proud smile. "It's not for you to decide whether or not it is impossible. I'm so old and I've been through a lot. In Capital City, I have the ability to destroy a man's life, let alone his career. It's just the matter of whether I want to or not."

Jepherson gritted his teeth. A gleam of light flashed in his eyes. "Are you threatening me?"

Paige smiled even more arrogantly. "Do you think I won't?"
