Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 926 Liking Someone is Pointless

Raeleigh woke up at five in the morning after a good night's rest. Feeling chilly, she got up and went to take a look in the ward. Inside, Scarlette was sleeping soundly in Hadrian's arms. After buying some food, she inquired about Hadrian's situation. It turned out that the doctor gave him an injection and some medicine. Basically, there was nothing left that can be done. "Oh, Raeleigh, did you sleep outside last night?" A wave of guiltiness hit Scarlette when she saw Raeleigh outside. Raeleigh set down the breakfast in front of her and went to see the doctor. "Can he be discharged from the hospital judging from his current state?"

"It's best for him to stay for a few more days. We don't recommend him being discharged this Tristany since his back is still injured." Yesterday, the doctor gave Hadrian a minor surgery to sew the wound on his back. According to them, it would take at least a week to recover.

"Hadrian, what do you think?" Raeleigh prioritized Hadrian's opinion. Shaking his head, he sat up, "I am fine. I can be discharged from the hospital."

"Then let's leave the hospital," Raeleigh nodded. She felt that Hadrian was not lying either. She looked at the doctor and said, "We can't afford to stay much longer. There are still a lot of things at school that we need to catch up on. I hope you understand."

Raeleigh tried to be polite. A doctor wouldn't force those who were poor as they would leave if they couldn't bear the fees.

After the doctors left, she went to Scarlette and said, "I slept fine outside last night. Don't worry about me. If you don't tell Jepherson, he wouldn't know."

Looking at Raeleight, Scarlette whined, "Raeleigh, why are being you so nice?"

"Okay, quit the talking. Let's eat. We should go back after that," Raeleigh opened the lid and sat down to eat.

During the meal, Scarlette kept serving Hadrian, but he did not seem to be aware.

Raeleigh let out a sigh. One of them was pouring their heart out while the other hadn't noticed.

From the looks of it, Hadrian seemed to regard Scarlette as a sister despite the fact that Scarlette fancied him.

"Raeleigh, if Jepherson finds out, he'll be furious," Hadrian stated as he raised his head to look at Raeleigh.

"You don't have to worry. If he finds out, you can tell him that it was all me. I was the one who brought you here and also the one who drove," Worried that Hadrian would blame it all on her, she hoped that he could be discharged as soon as possible.

Although he lost a lot of blood yesterday, he recovered fast. Raeleigh did not dare to make decisions for him.

After dinner, they left the hospital and went to Raeleigh's grandmother's house.

This time, the old lady did not expect there to be one more person, let alone an injured one.

Raeleigh explained, "This is Scarlette's brother. Yesterday, he got hurt because of me. He knocked his head on the ground."

Hearing Raeleigh's words, Novalie became anxious. She pulled Raeleigh's arm and asked, "Oh dear, what happened?"

"It's nothing. Just a few classmates messing around. They tried to hurt me. Fortunately, I'm fine because Scarlette and Hadrian were there. However, Hadrian got hurt in the fight."

Raeleigh explained while she cleaned up her room for Hadrian. In the end, her grandmother said, "You can sleep in my room If you don't mind. Let me know if you're feeling uncomfortable at night."

Hadrian stared at her. As long as he wasn't staying in Raeleigh's room, he was willing to do anything.

"Okay, I'm sorry for troubling you." The female teacher had pounded vigorously on Hadrian's head, which made him feel a little dizzy still. After settling down, he laid down on the bed. Scarlette was busy taking care of him and couln't be bothered by Raeleigh.

Raeleigh gave them some space. She then went out with Novalie to get some groceries.

On the way there, Novalie was curious as she asked about what was going on.

"Grandma, they're all good people. They were sent by Jepherson to protect me."

"The man who made these for me?" Novalie pointed at her walking stick as she observed her granddaughter's reaction carefully.

"Yes, it's him." Taking a glimpse at Novalie's walking stick, Raeleigh felt a pinch in her heart. She thought it was indeed rare for someone pampered to personally make this for her grandmother.

Humans had feelings. She was a human, not a stone. It was hard to fight shy of the emotions she felt.

Grinning, Raeleigh lowered her head, "Do you like him, grandma?"

Novalie broke into a smile, she responded, "What's the use of me liking him? My granddaughter needs to like him."

"What's the point? We're both very different people, and it's hard to tell if he actually likes me. It's probably provisional."

"It's not easy for one to like someone. It takes courage. You've never had feelings for a guy." Novalie burst out in laughter. She had not seen her grandmother so happy for a long time. In the past, she was always worried that Raeleigh would give up the idea of life because of her past and what she had been through.

In her younger days, Novalie was as pretty as a picture, and countless men were attracted by her. Unfortunately, she was being cheated on because of her family issues.

Novalie thought of taking her life numerous times. Fortunately, someone saved her, and she survived.

When one was in a miserable state, they would choose to end their lives. It was a normal thing to do.

However, Novalie knew in her heart that Raeleigh was not like any other ordinary human being. There must be a reason for her to suffer from such a big misfortune.

She was mature enough to see things from a wider perspective. If she had passed on, no one would take care of Raeleigh.

As far as she knew, if Raeleigh's parents were to appear out of the blue, she might not even recognize them. If she was dead, there would be no witness. Would Raeleigh deny her identity?

She was still herself even if she didn't want to admit it. There were so many people after her. Sooner or later, she would be killed.

Novalie set her heart on finding someone who would take care of Raeleigh. It would be better if that someone was influential and brave.

Originally, she thought that Jepherson liked Raeleigh only for her talent. Now that she knew the truth, Novalie was on cloud nine.

She thought that rich families were not high-minded. In fact, one could see and know that Jepherson was different.

At this moment, Novalie couldn't stop smiling and Raeleigh was dumbfounded. After all these years, she hadn't admitted anything so frankly. What was happening to her?

Novalie and her granddaughter arrived at the supermarket.

Beating around the bush, Raeleigh asked, "Grandma, did you notice anything or anyone strange recently?"

Knowing exactly what she was indicating, Novalie replied, "No, I think those people gave up. Alas, you have a hard life. I'm sorry to trouble you, dear. You might be living the best life now if it weren't for me."

"Of course not." Raeleigh held her grandmother in her arms as they exchanged glances. Without another word, they headed to the supermarket.
