Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 851 Missing Design Blueprint

Raeleigh was in great pain after having fallen to the ground. She only managed to get up with Scarlette's help. Then, Quirina rested on one of her girlfriend's outstretched hands in a rather unbecoming pose. "If you want to leave, then you can crawl out from under my crotch. Then, I'll let go of the fact that you have just insulted me."

Raeleigh fixed her eyes on Quirina's posture. Quirina was wearing a royal blue pleated skirt. The way she raised her legs was a very indecent gesture.

When Raeleigh was about to stand up from the ground, a guy came up and gave her a push, causing her to fall down again.

Raeleigh did not get up after that, but Quirina was waiting for her proudly.

"Isn't it lively here?" Zorion came up from behind. His voice was low and elegant. Everyone was shocked when he came over. "Isn't that Mr. Atkinson?"

Quirina quickly put her foot back down and turned to bat her eyelids coyly at Zorion. "Mr. Atkinson?"

Zorion didn't even take a look at Quirian, as if that just one more glance could smudge and taint his eyes.

Raeleigh also looked at the source of the voice that had just spoken, Zorion. She didn't expect that it would've been his voice. She looked at Zorion, and her eyes fell on the school uniform he was wearing.

Elkton University's uniform was royal blue. Girls wore royal blue skirts and white shirts, while boys wore royal blue shirts and black pants.

This colour and design had been in season for two years at Elkton University. It would be modified every year, though the changes were minimal.

That day, there was an official event. So, Zorion had changed into his school uniform to accompany Deanna to attend it. Normally, the dress code was not this strict.

Seeing Zorion, Raeleigh got up from the ground and pulled Scarlette up as well.

Zorion glanced at Raeleigh coldly and distantly. Then, he turned to Quirina and said, "The Cole family's style is really eye-opening. Miss Cole, it's really surprising."

"Young Master Atkinson, no, it's not like that. I was just showing her a pose for gymnastics exercises. Raeleigh didn't understand it, so I had to demonstrate it. Ask her if you don't believe me." Quirina looked at Raeleigh. Then, Zorion turned to Raeleigh and asked, "Was that really it?"

Raeleigh did not answer. Everyone knew that Quirina was bullying her. It had not been only for a day or two.

She endured it many times, but Quirina didn't let go of her. She had been begging for compromise, but what she got in return was just more bullying.

Raeleigh shook her head.

Zorion's gaze was frozen for a while. His gaze, that was like the stars and the moon, slowly left Raeleigh, and finally fell on Quirina. Zorion did not say anything, but just walked away.

Quirina was about to catch up with Zorion to explain herself when he said, "What are you both still doing there? Keep up with me, don't you have a class to attend?"

Raeleigh tugged at Scarlette and they both went to class together with Zorion.

Quirian stomped her feet in anger and shouted from behind, "It's not like that. Mr. Atkinson, you have to believe me."

Zorion paid no attention to her. He had encountered such a situation on his first day of school...

"Thank you so much for what you did just now." Raeleigh went up to the empty space beside him and thanked him.

Zorion merely turned back and looked at her with a gloomy expression. He was cold and distant. Raeleigh certainly knew that he had not done that because he fancied her, rather it was simply because he could not stand to see Quirina's underhanded bullying methods.

Turning around, Zorion walked away. Raeleigh did not look at him as he left. Instead, she dragged Scarlette towards their class.

On the way, she asked Raeleigh, "That Mr. Atkinson sure looks devilishly good. Don't you like him?"

Raeleigh did not even look at her and replied, "Why, do you like him?"

"Anybody would be attracted to anyone who looks good. But you have no reaction at all to such people. You seem to lack interest in this matter."

Raeleigh did not answer her question. When she arrived at the door of the classroom, it was time for class. Raeleigh knocked on the door. The teacher asked them to come in and asked them to take a seat without saying anything else.

"Zorion, you're back?" Deanna saw Zorion coming back and ran over to him. She had just finished her class.

Zorion agreed and raised his hand to rub Deanna's hair.

"How is she? Is she alright?" Deanna's mind was racing. It was she who had asked Zorion to help Raeleigh.

When they arrived, they had both seen Quirina bullying Raeleigh, but Deanna really didn't like Quirina, so she hadn't gone over. Instead, she took Zorion's hand and asked him for help.

"They're alright now," Zorion answered and went into the classroom. As soon as he sat down, the others all went out. As per usual, Zorion's face had an expression that warned strangers against approaching him. So, whenever people saw him, they would avoid him at all costs unless they were attending class.

Deanna sat by her brother's side, as they were deskmates.

They had always been deskmates since they were little.

"Zorion, do you think that Raeleigh is a good person?" Deanna had never seen a girl with such a good temperament. She neither liked to gossip about others, nor did she have problems with anyone. It was only people like Quirina who would pick on people like Raeleigh to bully.

Zorion looked at his sister. "I can't tell."

Deanna's heart was trembling as she asked, "How do you think she looks?"

Zorion thought for a moment before replying, "Just so-so."

Deanna's heart trembled as she asked, "What about her results?"

Zorion didn't say anything that time. She was a well-rounded student and was indeed quite good.

Deanna thought it was not bad, so she held her brother's arm and said, "Brother, between you and her, who do you think is better?"

Zorion glanced at his sister. "Me."

Zorion had such confidence. He was not modest at all. Deanna was stunned. She stared at her brother and said, "Brother, can't you be a little modest?"

"No." Zorion smiled and looked at the window. Thinking of Raeleigh's indifferent eyes, he wondered what had happened to make a 19-year-old girl such as her so aloof.

Raeleigh didn't have her design drawings with her. When she had realized it, she had looked all over the place for it. It was not in the room, so she wondered if she had accidentally misplaced it somewhere else or if they had simply gone missing.

Scarlette stepped in from outside and when she saw Raeleigh hunting high and low for something, she asked her, "What are you looking for?"

"Aren't we supposed to hand in the design drawings tomorrow? I've put my drawings on the table together with yours, but now mine's missing."

Raeleigh and Scarlette were very very close. Despite not having known each other for the longest of times, Raeleigh trusted her personal view of people, and Scarlette was a friend to be trusted and was dependable as well.

So, Raeleigh had put her work together with Scarlette's since they had agreed to go to the event together, but right then, Raeleigh's work was missing.

She frowned and said, "No way, your drawing was on the right side of my drawing. Are you sure you've looked carefully?"

Scarlette was not at ease. She pulled open the drawer and searched for a long time. There was indeed only her blueprint left in it. She stood on one side and said, "That's strange. Why is mine still here while yours is missing?"

"Scarlette, have you written your name on yours?"

Scarlette looked at Raeleigh and replied, "Yes I had, had you not?"

Raeleigh did not answer her question. Raeleigh was in for a big loss that time. She had not written her name on her work.
