Go After My Ex-wife -
Chapter 841 A Visit
After smiling at Deanna, Zorion glanced at Raeleigh, and then at Quirina. His eyebrows tightened and he looked disgusted. "If you don't wish for me to question Brooklyn about his upbringing, then it's best that you disappear from my sight. This is a university, not somewhere you can just act as you wish."
"Mr. Atkinson, you've misunderstood me. We haven't seen each other for a long time, and we're just catching up. I'm not messing with her. Raeleigh, isn't that the case?" Quirina looked at Raeleigh with a flash of hatred in her gaze, warning her to choose her words wisely.
Raeleigh was not concerned, but the smaller the trouble, the better. If she let things go, then she would not suffer from any losses. If she did, then she could not do anything about it.
Quirina had a powerful family background and there was no way she could win against her.
"I'm fine. We're fine. Thank you." Raeleigh didn't know Deanna and Zorion personally. She had only met them once back then when Jepherson dragged her out of the ball. They were stopped by Zorion on their way out and Raeleigh recalled that Zorion had a dislike for her.
She didn't want any trouble.
"Mr. Atkinson, there's really no conflict between me and her. You heard her too, didn't you?" Quirina plastered a gentle smile on her face, trying to act like a good girl. Zorion didn't look at her but turned to look at Raeleigh and asked, "Is that so?"
Raeleigh did not answer his question. She turned to look at Deanna and said, "I'm fine now. Thank you for your concern."
Then, Raeleigh dragged Scarlette away and left the scene.
Seeing that Raeleigh had left, Deanna said immediately, "It's not like we'll gobble her up, so why was she leaving in such a hurry?"
"Do you think they're all as innocent as you?" Zorion said as he watched Raeleigh walk away. Then, he pulled Deanna and walked towards Raeleigh.
"Raeleigh, wait," Zorion said as they left the scene. Quirina clenched her fists as she ground her teeth. Then, she winced. She was not going to let Raeleigh off like this.
"Miss Quirina, Madam Meica is looking for you." Just as Quirina was in a rage, a woman in her thirties came forward to her. Quirina turned to look, and it was her mother's helper, Auntie Hannia. "Auntie Hannia, what's the matter?" Quirina had just left the hospital, and her family was already looking for her.
"Madam Meica wants to see you." Auntie Hannia didn't say much about it. She knew very well that Quirina had to be punished and taught a lesson, or else she would go on creating trouble in school every other day. Even if she was able to marry an influential man in the future, it wouldn't be a good thing if she failed to behave herself.
Quirina thought for a moment and replied, "Let's go."
Quirina turned around and followed Auntie Hannia. Everyone else soon evacuated the scene.
Raeleigh went back to her dorm room and fell into a daze. "Why are you afraid of her? She takes advantage of people like you. If you don't speak up, then she'll only act worse towards you. If she gets used to bullying you in the future, then what are you going to do?" Scarlette said.
Raeleigh looked at Scarlette from her bed and said, "I just want to spend my college years in peace."
"Then, you shouldn't have come. It's rare for people to have a peaceful college life. You're too naïve," Scarlette said casually. Then, Raeleigh laughed.
"Why are you laughing?"
"It's as if you know everything."
"Of course." Scarlette walked to the side of Raeleigh's bed and sat down, leaning against her. Scarlette proceeded to lecture her about everything. Then, when it was about time, Raeleigh pulled out her laptop and said, "Shall we play a game?"
"Okay." Immediately, Scarlette felt energized at the mention of their game.
Scarlette intended to bring Raeleigh along on a mission with Hadrian in the game that day, but she didn't manage to find him, so they went looking for the expert in red instead.
"Raeleigh, let's go and have a look. Perhaps, we could befriend him, and we would be able to do anything we want in the game with his guidance. We would be able to make money off this game easily," Scarlette said as she nudged Raeleigh. Raeleigh didn't move and said, "No, it's okay. I'm fine this way."
Then, Raeleigh went offline.
"Hey... why did you log off?" Scarlette looked at Raeleigh while Raeleigh had already switched off her laptop. Raeleigh grabbed a few clothes and placed them into her pail. "I'm going to do my laundry. I'll help you with yours too. You can go ahead and have fun. I want to retire Tristany today."
Then, Raeleigh went to do her laundry. Scarlette stopped playing the game too and followed Raeleigh to do laundry.
Jepherson put down the computer and got out of his bed. He smiled and said, "Stuart, prepare the car."
"Yes, Mr. Jepherson." Stuart turned around and went out. Soon, he returned and said, "Mr. Jepherson, the car is ready."
"Alright." Jepherson changed his outfit and followed Stuart out the door.
Paige saw Stuart walking out of the door and quickly asked, "Where are you heading out this late?"
"I have something to deal with," Jepherson said, and then headed straight into the car. Stuart got into the car too, and they departed from Harvey Manor.
Raeleigh was surprised to receive a call. It was Jepherson. Scarlette picked up the call for her.
"It's for you." Scarlette didn't mention who it was and Raeleigh grabbed the phone from her. Jepherson's elegant voice could be heard from the other end of the line.
"I'm waiting for you outside the entrance." He hung up the phone after he finished his sentence.
Raeleigh remained silent for a while. The call ended and she continued doing her laundry. Scarlette didn't say anything either. When it was time for them to go to bed, Scarlette had already fallen asleep. At that moment, Raeleigh received another call from Jepherson.
Raeleigh didn't want to pick up the call, but for him to call this late...
Raleleigh sat up as she picked up the call. Scarlette didn't react as she was in a deep sleep.
Raeleigh was afraid to wake Scarlette up, so she whispered into the phone.
"What's the matter?"
It was silent on the other end of the line. Then, Jepherson said, "I'm waiting for you downstairs."
"Downstairs?"
"Below your dorm."
Raeleigh hesitated as the call was hung up. Jepherson was at the school entrance earlier, and right then he was waiting for her below her dorm. If she didn't meet him, then was he going to come up to her? At the thought of this, Raeleigh got up and changed. Then, she walked out of her room.
Raeleigh attempted to open the entrance of the dormitory, and it was not locked.
Raeleigh truly admired the power that Jepherson had in this school. He could even unlock the doors of the women's dormitory. It seemed like there was nothing that he wasn't capable of and if she didn't go to him, then he would make his way up to her.
Raeleigh looked around and paused at the door. She looked around the corridor and there was indeed a slender figure downstairs under the moonlight.
The figure had his head lowered and his hands in his pockets. He was wearing a snugly fitted grey shirt and he looked classy.
Jepherson seemed to have heard her walking down and turned to look at her. His thin lips curled slightly upwards. Then, he turned around and walked forward. Raeleigh was at a loss for words. Was she supposed to follow behind him?
It was already past midnight. What was he trying to do?
What if someone noticed that she wasn't asleep at this hour?
Raeleigh stood there for a while and finally followed Jepherson.
Jepherson's pace was neither fast nor slow, and Raeleigh gradually caught up to him. She walked up next to him.
"Why did you want to see me?" Raeleigh walked up to him and paused. Jepherson glanced at her and paused too. He stood opposite her and asked, "Can't I see you for no reason?"
"Why would you come and see me for no reason?" Raeleigh replied with an indifferent expression. There was a hint of impatience in her eyes.
All of a sudden, Jepherson laughed. It was unsure why he laughed but he did.
