Go After My Ex-wife -
Chapter 978 I Don't Care
After Santiago finished his breakfast, he drank some water before heading into the bathroom. Once he came out, he looked at Raeleigh and asked, "Is there anything you need me to do? If not, then I'll leave." Santiago spoke as he walked towards the door. Raeleigh quickly said, "Can you please bring me my laptop?"
Santiago turned around and said, "Alright, no problem."
After saying that, Santiago cast a glance at Jepherson and left.
Scarlette decided to hitch a ride with Santiago back to the university. Throughout the entire journey, she kept her head down and remained silent.
Santiago saw Zorion standing at the university entrance just as he pulled into a parking lot.
Zorion purposely came to the university to find Santiago.
Santiago got out of the car and made his way into the university. He greeted Zorion when he saw him. "Hey, what are you doing here?"
"Where is Raeleigh? How is she?"
"She's dead. You can extend your condolences," Santiago said as he walked past Zorion. Zorion froze for a moment before turning around and following Santiago. He said, "Please don't joke with me. I want to see her, where is she?"
Santiago stopped and turned to look at Zorion. "If you have the will, then go and find her yourself. Why are you asking me? Would you believe me if I said that I have no idea where she is?" "Nope."
"If you don't believe me, then why are you asking me?" Santiago was amused. He turned around and continued walking towards the university.
Scarlette did not dare to utter a single word the whole time. She quickly followed Santiago as they made their way towards the dormitory.
As soon as Scarlette entered the room, she immediately noticed that Deanna's belongings were gone. With that, she instantly knew that Deanna knew what was going on and that she would no longer be living here.
Scarlette did not know what else to say as reality slowly sunk in.
It was too pathetic for two women to turn against each other just because of a man.
Scarlette found Raeleigh's laptop and handed it to Santiago. After that, Santiago immediately turned to leave. Scarlette briefly tidied up the room before picking up her laptop and catching up to Santiago. When the two arrived at the door, Zorion was no longer there. However, Scarlette still looked around to see if he was nearby.
When Scarlette did not see him, she immediately got into the car with Santiago. Once they got into the car, Santiago's lips curled into a smile. He started the car and decided to take another route to the hospital.
"Santiago, did you take the wrong turn?" Scarlette asked.
Santiago did not reply, but he drove at breakneck speed. It was as if he was racing.
Scarlette felt as if she was going to throw up. She hurriedly grabbed hold of the car door handle.
Soon, she saw a convoy of the Atkinson family's cars through the rearview mirror. She instantly understood what was going on.
"Santiago, what should we do?"
"Sit tight." After saying that, Santiago slammed on the accelerator. Scarlette could even hear the sound of the tires screeching against the tarmac. Scarlette had always felt safe in cars, but not that time.
Santiago got out of the car as soon as he pulled into the hospital parking lot. The convoy of the Atkinson family's cars were nowhere to be seen.
Santiago immediately made his way into the hospital while Scarlette was kneeling on the ground, vomiting out all the contents in her stomach. After vomiting for about ten minutes, she slowly stumbled onto her feet. She felt as if the sky was spinning and could not bring herself to walk steadily.
After a long time, she finally made her way into the hospital. Fortunately, Hadrian was there. She had to rely on him to get to Raeleigh's room. As soon as she arrived at Raeleigh's ward, she immediately collapsed onto the bed.
Raeleigh frowned and asked, "Scarlette, are you alright?"
"Am I alright?" Scarlette did not dare to say anything else. She just lay on the bed and shook her head.
Santiago, who was standing at one side, said, "She's probably having severe motion sickness."
Raeleigh asked curiously, "Scarlette, do you feel nauseous?"
Scarlette nodded her head. Raeleigh did not know what to say since she had never seen her get motion sickness before.
"Here, as requested. What are you planning to do with one hand?" Santiago said as he handed Raeleigh her laptop. She looked at him before accepting her laptop and turning it on. She went onto the university's website before she began looking through their study materials and drawings.
Santiago then walked towards Jepherson. The brothers were about the same height.
"I'm sure our father will get involved in this matter. I can't go on your behalf to visit the Atkinson family. Grandma has already called me and asked me where you are."
"I'll go over to the Atkinson family residence later," Jepherson said as he took a quick glance at Raeleigh. He continued. "You have to stay here."
"I know."
The two brothers were talking as if they were the only ones in the room. After that, Jepherson made his way over to the bed and kissed Raeleigh. Raeleigh raised her head slowly. She did not say anything but just looked at Jepherson with her serene eyes. Jepherson smiled, got up, and left. Santiago lay down on the other bed in the room and said, "I want to have steak for lunch, medium well. Oh, I also want some cod fish too." Santiago spoke as he closed his eyes. He looked as if he was about to fall asleep. Scarlette replied, "I'll arrange it later."
To Scarlette, if Deanna was a person that was hard to deal with, then Santiago was two times harder. It was frightening.
Raeleigh was amused. She looked up at the two people on the bed and could not help but to laugh.
When Jepherson emerged from the hospital, he suddenly received a call from Paige. However, he did not answer the phone. Instead, he let Stuart do so.
"Madam Paige," Stuart answered respectfully.
Paige was at home, pacing back and forth. She made call after call.
"Stuart, where is Jepherson? Are you guys back in the country yet?" Paige was very impatient. Although everyone already knew that Deanna had been found, Stuart could still hear the seriousness in Paige's voice.
Stuart said hurriedly, "We've just gotten off the plane. We're rushing over to the Atkinson family residence to visit Miss Deanna."
"Is that so? Where's Jepherson? Ask him to come to the phone." Paige insisted on hearing Jepherson's voice.
"Mr. Jepherson is taking a break. He's exhausted. I'll tell him first thing when he wakes up that you called."
Paige felt that since Jepherson was getting some rest, then it would be fine for him to call her back later.
"Alright, then. Don't forget to tell him," Paige said. Stuart immediately replied, "Yes, Madam Paige. I will let him know." "Okay, then. Send my regards to Deanna."
"Yes, Madam Paige."
Paige hung up the phone and Stuart immediately returned the phone to Jepherson.
Jepherson did not take the phone away. He just said, "Call our people and tell them that we are suspicious of the Cole family. Ask them to conduct an investigation on them."
Stuart was stunned for a moment and asked hesitantly, "Aren't you going to tell Mr. Calvin about this?"
Jepherson immediately said, "He's not in the country. What's the point of telling him?"
Stuart choked and did not dare to say anything.
Jepherson said, "Go on, make the call."
Only then did Stuart make the call. He was a little worried as he placed the phone call. Although Flynt had done something wrong and angered Jepherson, the Cole family was still one of the most powerful families in Capital City. If they really made a move, then it would affect the entire city. At that time, it would cause a huge commotion.
Both Mr. Calvin and Madam Belle were not in the country. So was Mr. Hudson.
What were they going to do if something really happened?
"Stop the car," Jepherson suddenly said, causing Stuart's heart to skip a beat. He was so frightened that he gulped.
