Go After My Ex-wife -
Chapter 964 He Knows Everything
After a moment of silence, Raeleigh said, "I've thought about it. I don't think we are suited for each other, so let's break up."
"That's your reason for breaking up?" Jepherson asked. He was not angry. Raeleigh turned to look at him. Jepherson reached over to take her hand, saying, "Please do not give up on us right now." "We're just not compatible."
"Give me another reason. If you can convince me, then I'll consider ending our relationship. However, if you can't, then I will not accept us not being compatible as a reason for breaking up." Jepherson said as he stroked Raeleigh's hand. She pursed her lips for a long time before she said, "I do not want Deanna to have a misunderstanding over this matter. She's too naive. If she finds out, then I doubt she would be able to take it."
"Then, you just assume I can take it? I like what I like. What's wrong with that?" Jepherson's face fell. Raeleigh did not know what to say. She had a feeling that she would not be able to convince Jepherson. If Jepherson was the type of person who wanted to give up or was willing to give up, then she would not need to waste so much time convincing him.
Raeleigh felt restless for a while and had to say, "I feel that you should not force yourself to be with me. I just can't seem to accept your family, your identity, your talent, and even your temper. Our relationship started out as a misunderstanding. You just wanted something new and so happened to enjoy hanging out with me. I'm sure you'll get bored of me sooner or later and would just dump me. But I can't accept this kind of ending."
Raeleigh started rambling. Jepherson had never heard her say so many words at one go, ever.
His expression was indifferent as he digested the words that Raeleigh had just said.
Finally, he summed up her words into one word, excuses.
Jepherson sighed softly and said, "If you really think we're not suited for each other, then why don't we take a break from each other? Once you think it through, then you can give me an answer." Jepherson's state of mind was very calm. This was something that he had long thought of.
Deanna was very naive and simple-minded. If Jepherson could not bear to hurt her, then neither could Raeleigh.
He could only wait for Deanna to sort it out, it would be an amicable split. What was more, Jepherson had another thing to do then, which was to protect Raeleigh.
Flynt's appearance was by no means accidental. If it was not accidental, then what was his purpose?
Raeleigh thought for a while and said, "If my answer remains the same after a few days, then would you agree to break up with me?"
"If you've thought it through, if deep down, you're no longer in love with me and truly have no feelings for me, then I promise you, I will end our relationship," Jepherson said calmly. Raeleigh couldn't see through his mind. However, she had never seen two brothers who were the total opposite of each other. One was down to earth, while the other was flamboyant.
However, since Jepherson promised her, then it meant that she could leave him.
Raeleigh wore a faint smile on her face and she then said, "Then, do you mind sending me back to the university?"
"You want to go back now?" Jepherson hesitated. He leaned to one side and said, "I haven't had dinner yet."
Raeleigh, too, hadn't had dinner yet. However, she was left speechless when she realized how quickly Jepherson could change the topic.
Jepherson then rolled down the window and asked Stuart and the driver, "Are there any restaurants nearby?"
Stuart and the driver immediately got into the car and drove Jepherson to the nearest restaurant. When they pulled into the restaurant, Raeleigh was surprised to find that she was at the same restaurant where Santiago had brought her and Scarlette the day before.
They got out of the car and Jepherson walked ahead. The manager was stunned to see Raeleigh since she had come with Santiago a day ago and that day, she was with Jepherson.
"Mr. Jepherson." The manager hurried forward to greet him. Jepherson said, "Santiago was causing trouble yesterday when he brought Raeleigh over yesterday. Are you aware of it?" Causing trouble?
The manager immediately understood his words and said, "Yes, Mr. Jepherson. You can rest assured."
"I haven't eaten yet. Can you arrange a table for us?" Jepherson turned around and looked at Raeleigh. He strode inside. He even knew which private room they had used a day ago. The manager sweated and motioned for Raeleigh to follow.
Raeleigh followed him to the private room. She had no idea why Jepherson had brought her here that day. What was he trying to say?
Did he want to tell her that he had been watching her?
Once they entered the room, Jepherson pulled out a chair and looked at Raeleigh. Raeleigh stood at the door for a while and finally went over to sit down.
Did he want to tell her that he knew Santiago had done the same thing too?
Maybe it was Scarlette who told him? How could she forget that Scarlette was with them the previous night?
"Mr. Jepherson, would you like to order what Mr. Santiago had ordered last night?" The manager could see through Jepherson's intentions. He could tell that Raeleigh was actually Jepherson's girlfriend and not Santiago's.
Jepherson looked up at the manager for a while and asked Raeleigh, "What would you like to eat?"
Raeleigh thought for a moment before saying, "Let's order the same as yesterday's."
Since he already asked, then she had nothing to hide. The only thing she was afraid of right then was that Scarlette had told him what she and Santiago had talked about the previous night.
"You got that?" Jepherson asked the manager. The manager immediately agreed. "Yes, Mr. Jepherson. Please wait for a moment while I put in your order."
The manager immediately turned around and went out. He immediately sent the order into the kitchen. It was not long before he re-entered the private room along with a waiter to bring them their food. It was a rule that Stuart was to stand outside.
Jepherson looked at the dishes and raised his head to ask the manager, "Do you have pumpkin soup?"
"Yes, we do."
"Can you please get me a bowl? I'm afraid Raeleigh is not feeling well."
"I'll go and get it right away."
"Ok, don't come in if there's nothing else."
"Yes, Mr. Jepherson."
After the manager left, Raeleigh picked up her fork and started to eat. She looked at the amount of food on the table and realized that she could not stomach this food. How were they supposed to finish all this food on the table?
How did they manage to finish this food the day before?
She took a bite of a piece of vegetable and took a sip of water. Then, she quietly sat and ate her food.
She had always felt that Jepherson had no temper. In fact, he hid it very well.
Jepherson did have a temper, it was just that he had not reached his boiling point. Just like this matter for example, he did not tell her out loud that he knew that Santiago had brought her here the previous night. Instead, he had to bring her here on purpose to show her that he knew everything.
After the meal, Raeleigh ordered dessert as usual. When they exited the restaurant, there was a gentle breeze. Jepherson took off his coat and draped it around her shoulders. Then, he took away the dessert in her hand and held her hand, as they took a stroll along the riverside.
Neither of them uttered a word as they quietly watched the flowing of the gentle river. They walked from one end of the river to the other.
An hour later, Raeleigh felt a little tired. Jepherson bent down and gathered her in his arms. Then, he turned back around and made his way back to the car.
Raeleigh did not protest. Instead, she blushed a little.
If Jepherson had done this at the beginning of the walk, then she would have definitely protested and struggled to break free.
However, Raeleigh was tired then. She was at a loss at what to do.
He had held her hand for more than an hour as they walked along the riverside. It was a little too late for her to protest, wasn't it?
After getting into the car, Raeleigh decided to focus on the scenery outside the window. She was wondering what they would look like many years later when she looked back.
When a car passed by, Raeleigh saw a person whom she had met a few times. That person was Xanthus!
