Go After My Ex-wife -
Chapter 1275 For Women
Santiago walked towards Raeleigh. The men who were in his way didn't dare approach him. They all knew his temper. He didn't care about the consequences when he beat others up.
When he was in front of Raeleigh, Santiago suddenly raised his hand and pinched her face, making Raeleigh at a loss for words. He brought his hands together after pinching her. "Not bad, we don't see each other for a day and you've gotten yourself in quite the mess."
She stared blankly at Santiago, unable to utter a single word.
Behind him, Jacky walked up to him after taking care of the group of men. Santiago turned around to look at Jacky, "Thank you!"
"Heh!" Jacky hummed in amusement.
"Let's go home." Santiago turned on his heel and walked out of the alley while looking at the men on the ground. He walked over to one of them, squatted down and looked at his face. "Do you know what the consequences are for offending me?"
"Mr. Santiago, we were just following orders. Please forgive us."
"Sure, I can spare you, but have you thought of letting her go? Have you forgotten how determined you were earlier?"
The man said nothing. Santiago stood up, feeling sorry for him. Though she didn't know what he was going to do, judging from his expression, she knew it wasn't going to be anything good.
"Forget it. They were just obeying orders. It's useless for you to kill them. They did it for a living."
Santiago turned around and looked at Raeleigh. "You can't even protect yourself yet you're still worrying about others. Why not use some of that time to take better care of yourself?"
Raeleigh was speechless after Santiago said that. He was right. She ought to take better care of herself.
She couldn't even protect herself, but still wanted to help others.
As Raeleigh kept silent, Santiago fell quiet too. He raised his hand to pinch Raeleigh's chin, which was so soft that Raeleigh turned pale when he did it again. "That hurts."
"Oh, so you do feel pain? I thought you didn't."
Raeleigh raised her hand to push Santiago's away. "I'm not an idiot. How would I not know that it hurts?"
"Since you know it hurts, you should fight back. All living creatures are able to defend themselves, so you should too, no?"
When he finished speaking, Santiago tugged on Raeleigh's arm before pulling her towards him. The two were leaning closer and closer to each other when Santiago bent over and held Raeleigh in his arms. Raeleigh felt dizzy. Suddenly, she raised her head and looked at Santiago blankly. "What are you doing?"
"Nothing, let's just go home."
Santiago then turned and walked towards the entrance of the alley with Raeleigh in his arms. Raeleigh struggled for a while, but she couldn't break free since Santiago had her locked tightly in his arms. After leaving the alley, Santiago walked towards a black car and Jacky opened the door for him.
He bent down and placed Raeleigh inside the car. Once he closed the car door, he looked up at Jacky with a frown and said, "I'll help you solve some of your problems with Deanna. But you'd better think clearly about this. Zorion is just one step forward. If you want to marry her, you've still a long way to go. I can help you as much as I can, but it all depends on how you deal with the Atkinson family. Based on what I know about Mr. Atkinson and his son, you'll only be stepped on."
"You don't need to tell me this, but I can't see Deanna right now. I want to see her." Jacky's words were extremely firm and arrogant. It sounded as though he absolutely had to do it.
Raeleigh sat in the car and watched him. Jacky's handsome face beamed just as brightly as Santiago's. However, in comparison, there was a hint of arrogance on his face, and Jacky's aura was inferior to Santiago's. Perhaps this might have something to do with his age.
After all, Jacky was getting along in age.
Santiago placed his hand on the hood of the car and knocked on it twice. He stared at Jacky and said, "Seeing Deanna won't be a problem. The problem is that you'd have to think about the consequences thoroughly. If you're planning on eloping with Deanna, I advise you to forget about that."
Deanna wouldn't abandon her family and follow you. She's playful, so this might feel new and exciting to her in the first couple of days, but once she's tired of playing, she'd do anything she can to go home. You'd better be mentally prepared for that. Whatever happens between you and Deanna, you'd still have to live with the Atkinson family."
Jacky gritted his teeth, "No way."
Raeleigh saw Santiago laugh, saying, "Nothing is impossible. Even brothers would turn against each other over a woman. Is anything even impossible?" Unless you love her?"
"I love Deanna." Jacky didn't hesitate in replying, stunning Raeleigh. At first, her mind was fixed on the fact that her brothers had turned against each other because of a woman, but she was shocked by Jacky's declaration.
Raeleigh fell silent as she looked at Jacky's determined eyes.
She often heard that all men were superficial, but not all of them were the same; at least not the ones she met.
There were men with feelings everywhere.
Santiago laughed. "It's your business whether you love her or not, but that doesn't necessarily make it true love. Some people just lie to themselves."
"I'm not that kind of person."
"Who are you then? We'll find out eventually. You can come over tomorrow to see Raeleigh, and I'll call Deanna over."
When Santiago came into the car, Xanthus soon followed. Raeleigh looked at Santiago, face full of shock. "You want to help Jacky?"
"Do I look like an ungrateful person?" Santiago looked at Raeleigh. Though she did consider this, she left the question unanswered since it wasn't the case at all.
As the car slowly pulled away, Jacky stood on the road and watched it leave. Soon, another person walked over and stood beside him.
"Jacky, are you really going to work with Santiago?"
"Santiago is a reliable man." This was the only praise Jacky ever gave Santiago.
"But Santiago is known as the Demon Lord of this area. We're from Waverly village. If we enter his turf, we'll definitely have to take over some of his family's territories. Will he give it to us willingly?" "This territory wasn't taken over, it was given to me by him. He made it very clear that he wants to work with me. He must have a smidgen of sincerity in him. As long as we don't cross him, he'd let us have the Richard's family's territory. He has his own plans."
"Why? It's not like he lacks anything."
"He needs this woman. He wants to protect her." The corners of Jacky's mouth curled up into a smile. It seemed like he really did come here to protect Raeleigh.
"Then we..."
"Get the order out to always protect Raeleigh within our territories. I'll kill whoever starts any trouble."
"Protect Raeleigh?"
The man was shocked. Wasn't he protecting Deanna?
"Didn't you hear me?" Jacky looked amused. Everyone knew that the most sinister aspect about Jacky is that the more he smiled and laughed, the more vicious he would get.
