Go After My Ex-wife -
Chapter 1311 Getting Down To Business
Belle let out a cry and looked at her husband. It seemed that Xanthus was not an easy opponent. Jerry was in trouble.
When Raeleigh woke up, Jepherson had already risen from the bed. He was getting changed and was about to leave. When he saw Raeleigh, he reminded her to get enough rest and he then turned around to go outside. Belle came after him from the door and called him, "Jerry."
Jepherson turned to look at Belle. "Mom."
"I heard about everything from your father. Your grandmother may be a little too much, but please just ignore her."
Belle smiled.
Jepherson said, "I'm going back later. I have to talk to Grandma about this."
"But now the rumors are rife outside. Words are spreading around that Stella was pregnant with your child and now the child is gone. How is she going to continue living her life? If you go back now, aren't you just adding fuel to the fire?"
"But she employed someone to hurt Raeleigh. Is that right? Stella is not pregnant. I will ask her to come forward and clarify this matter. I'm not scared to face the truth. Mom, trust me. I will only love Raeleigh. Except for that child with Raeleigh, I have nothing to be sorry about."
"Your grandmother is wrong, but..."
"No 'buts'. I am not you, Mom. I can't let anyone hurt Raeleigh."
Turning around, Jepherson strode towards the elevator door, heading towards Paige's residence.
Belle looked helpless and hurried back to find her husband. But Calvin was reading the news with his head down and didn't care about it at all. Belle couldn't say anything in front of Xanthus and Raeleigh. She had to ask Calvin to go outside with her. But Calvin didn't move and just said that it was not something they should meddle with.
Belle sat back to the side. Jerry was her son, so how could she ignore him?
...
Jepherson got out of the car and walked all the way to the Ink Garden. When the servants saw Jepherson returning, they immediately reported to Paige, who was resting in bed.
"Madam, Mr. Jepherson is back."
Paige cracked her eyes slightly and glanced at the servant. "You're stating the obvious. Don't get so worked up, will you. He'll have to come back sooner or later."
She slowly rose from the bed. Leaning against the bed, she tidied up her clothes. She understood that Jepherson would not let this go. It was only a matter of time before he found her. But what could he do about it?
Paige sat on the bed, feeling fTristaness, waiting for Jepherson to come in. Not long after, Jepherson walked in through the door.
At first sight, Paige smirked and asked, "Why, are you willing to come back now?"
Jepherson walked over to face Paige and pulled a chair and sat down. He crossed his legs casually. This was the posture he had never shown in front of his grandmother, Paige.
Paige was slightly stunned, and her eyes showed displeasure.
"Great, the prodigal son has come back to make me angry." Paige turned her face away from Jepherson and looked elsewhere.
Jepherson coldly said, "I have long been independent, and only you haven't seen it. There is a saying, don't bully a boy who is young and ignorant. You have always been bullying me, but there will always be a time for that young man to grow up."
"What did you say?"
Paige's expression darkened. She looked at Jepherson next to her. Jepherson laughed and said, "You've always been bullying us, is what I'm saying. You tried to control our lives. Mom has always respected and listened to you all the time. You take advantage of your elderly status and act like a tyrant at home. The family has been giving in to you all these years, and that's why you have been so full of yourself." "You... you said that I'm taking advantage of my seniority, you..."
Jepherson's gaze was cold. "I don't know what kind of relationship there is between you and Grandpa. I don't know if you want to impose the same rule on your grandchildren because Grandpa and you were married in this way. What I do know is, you're dead set on arranging my marriage for me."
"No matter what your purpose is, I want to tell you that what you have done disgusts me, so..."
Jepherson stood up. Paige looked up at him. "So what?"
"So, from today onwards, you are grounded and you'll be cut off from the outside world. You can only come out after I marry Raeleigh and she gives birth to a baby."
"
"You want to put me under house arrest?" Paige's eyes popped open. Jepherson smiled and said, "Allow me to tell you this. When you sent people to assassinate Raeleigh, my parents were also there and they were almost killed. If it weren't for Santiago, then Dad would be here instead of me."
"I'm going to ask Santiago to cover up this incident. I will not be pressing charges. Of course, it's not because of you but for the reputation of the Harvey family."
"Best of luck with that."
Jepherson turned around and walked away. Paige shouted, "Stop right there! I am your grandmother. If you want to put me under house arrest, then you'll have to ask your grandfather first... or call your parents to see me, I want to..."
Jepherson turned around and looked at Paige. "Look, with how things are presently, why do you still want to bicker with us? Dad is very, very disappointed. If he weren't affected, then do you think he would have let me come? Don't you understand your own son?"
Paige sat back down, defeated. Thinking of her son's face, her face instantly turned pale. She shook her head and said, "No, no..."
"The only person who can save you right now is Grandpa. I hate to break this to you, but from where can you still muster up a scrap of dignity to see him?"
After saying that, Jepherson turned around and walked away. It was all thanks to Paige that they had to come thus far. He had always been respectful to Paige. It had never occurred to him that she would be so hostile to others.
Outside the door, Jepherson immediately ordered, "Cut off all connections with the outside world. Without my orders, no one is allowed to help the old madam have contact with anybody. Anyone who disobeys will be handed over to Santiago to be dealt with."
"The old madam is in poor health and is now unconscious. She needs space to be calm and recover. Anyone who wants to see her will have to go through me."
"Yes," the servants acknowledged.
Jepherson's gaze was cold. An invisible pressure came from his body and attacked his surroundings. Everyone lowered their heads and remained silent. Jepherson, the first son of the Harvey family, was really scary. Even Madam Paige was grounded. What else couldn't he do?
After leaving Harvey Manor, Jepherson returned to the car. He got in the car and glanced at the person in the driver's seat. He was not used to having a different driver who was not Stuart. After a moment of silence, he asked, "How's the investigation going?"
"We have found all the surveillance videos of the roads. The people in those cars can't be seen clearly, and they are all wearing hats. Besides, the cars are all ordinary cars. We can't find them after getting on the main road. We suspect that they are using fake license numbers."
"Go to the Department of Traffic."
"Right now?"
"Right now."
"Yes, sir."
When Jepherson reached the desNorahtion, two people immediately came out. One was a tall and gentle-looking man with glasses, dressed in a uniform.
Another one was a short, slightly overweight man with a round belly. He was armed with a bright smile.
Seeing Jepherson, the short man immediately went over and greeted him. "Mr. Harvey."
"Hey."
Jepherson looked at the two people one by one. He had already seen them in the hospital. "This way, Mr. Harvey."
The short guy invited Jepherson to come in. He had already received a call. They were all ready.
