Getting My Ex-wife Back

As Jepherson said, he was there for his parents. Jenna was a little puzzled. “We’re doing fine; why would you look for us?”

Jepherson said, “Dad had a fight with Grandma and took you away while Grandma went to Grandpa about this, and he was maddened to sickness.”

Raeleigh had to hand it to him; he didn’t even blink when he was lying.

Jenna turned to look at Hansen. “What should we do?”

Rayan came downstairs. “Are you for real?”

Hansen sneered, “What does it have to do with you?”

“Nothing.” As Rayan came down, he sized Raeleigh up inadvertently.

“Raeleigh, this is Mr. Whalen, Zorion and Deanna’s father.” Jenna pulled Raeleigh over to introduce her, “Rayan, this is Raeleigh, Jerry’s girlfriend.”

“I know.”NôvelDrama.Org © content.

No matter how good other people’s girlfriends were, he would not show a hint of satisfaction.

Rayan went to the other side of the sofa and sat down. Looking at Hansen, he asked, “So you came to me to avoid calamity?”

“Aren’t you imaginative to think so?” Hansen smiled wryly and took a sip of his tea.

“Raeleigh, take a seat.” Jenna didn’t like the way Rayan treated Raeleigh, but it was justifiable. It wouldn’t be a surprise if he already knew what was going on.

Raeleigh sat down while Jepherson stood beside her. She had a feeling Rayan was not one to be messed with.

If things went on like that, she wouldn’t know how to tell Rayan she wanted to meet Deanna.

Meanwhile, Jenna sat by her side, holding her hand the entire time.

As another person came down, Raeleigh looked up and saw that it was Hannah.

She was dressed elegantly in light-colored clothes. She was surprised when she walked down, especially when she saw Raeleigh’s gaze.

But compared to Rayan’s aloofness, Hannah was much better.

Hannah went straight to Raeleigh after descending the stairs. With that, Jenna let go of her hand for Raeleigh to stand up and greeted her, “Hi, Auntie Hannah.”

Only then did Jenna stand up and introduce, “Hannah, this is Jerry’s girlfriend, Raeleigh.”

Hannah sized Raeleigh up and commented, “You’re so beautiful! Jerry sure is lucky.”

Raeleigh bowed her head and looked back up at Hannah.

Hannah smiled and said, “Go on, have a seat. Make yourself at home.”

Only then did Raeleigh glance at Jepherson. Hannah looked back at him too. “Come, Jerry, sit with us. Don’t let your girlfriend stand with you.”

With that, Raeleigh and Jepherson went to sit together. Then, Hannah and Jenna went to sit down on the other side and talked to each other.

The topic of conversation was, of course, about their families.

Hannah was saying that Jenna was blessed to have a daughter-in-law so early.

Jenna returned the praise by saying the same.

But after talking for a long time, they never mentioned Deanna.

Later, it was Jepherson who brought up Zorion. “Where’s Zorion?”

“He didn’t come over.”

Rayan had been talking to Hansen. When the two were together, they were always against each other. They looked down on each other and couldn’t tolerate each other’s presence. They would even insult each other verbally.

As they were talking, Rayan suddenly answered Jepherson’s questions and attracted everyone’s attention.

“Zorion is feeling somewhat under the weather. We only brought Deanna with us. But she’s not acclimatized and hasn’t been feeling well either, so she’s been in her room.”

Rayan brushed over how his children were doing. He seemed polite and easy-going, but Raeleigh could tell Rayan was one to keep his card closed and difficult to get along with.

Just like Jormen.

“Is Deanna still sick?” Of course, Jenna knew what was going on, but she had to play dumb.

“Still a little.”

“I wonder if Scarlette is also here?” Raeleigh asked. Although it was a bit abrupt, it would be too late if she didn’t do it right then.

Hannah was stumped for a moment before she asked Raeleigh, “You know Scarlette?”

“Scarlette used to work for Jepherson. We met in college, and she was supposed to be my bodyguard. I got her message saying she went to find Deanna. She was still in Capital City then, but later, when I went to Zorion about her whereabouts, he said she had left with Deanna. I thought they had gone overseas for vacation, but I didn’t expect they would be here.”

Raeleigh was worried she would be seen through.

Hannah glanced at Rayan and Hansen, who were sitting by the side drinking tea. After some thought, she spoke hesitantly, “Scarlette had long been separated from us; she left not long after we arrived. As for where she went, we don’t know; she didn’t tell us anything.”

Hannah didn’t look like she was lying, so Raeleigh didn’t know what to do next.

Scarlette was one of the Richards family’s people, and she would never hurt Deanna, nor would the Whalen family harm Scarlette anyhow. Moreover, there was Deanna.

Say Scarlette left; what was her reason?

Raeleigh needed to see Deanna.

“Scarlette is pregnant and is going to give birth soon. Why would she leave?” Raeleigh found it odd and was worried. “She’s all alone. What will happen to her if she goes into labor?”

Jenna also said, “And the girl grew up like a boy too. How worrying.”

“She’s probably fine.” Hannah had never thought about the matter before, but Scarlette requested to leave herself; they hadn’t forced her. Deanna also asked her to stay then, but she still left. Hannah didn’t ask the specifics as Scarlette had always been secretive about the baby’s father, and they didn’t want to make things hard for her either. Hence, this. Now Hannah regretted not asking her.

Hannah stood up and said, “I’ll ask Deanna what’s going on.”

“Auntie Hannah, I want to go with you. Deanna and I are friends.” Raeleigh stood up immediately, and Hannah looked at her. “Alright. I’ve heard of you; Deanna has told me a lot about you. Follow me.”

Seeing that Rayan was unmoved by Hannah taking her up to see Deanna, she felt relieved.

Raeleigh followed Hannah upstairs to a room, and Hannah knocked on the door before pushing it open.

Entering the room, she said, “Deanna, look who’s here.”

Raeleigh stood behind Hannah, observing the room as she entered. It was pink, and the floor was layered with a thick carpet. Even if she rolled on the ground, she wouldn’t feel cold. It was great for winter times, but maybe not as great during summer.

Hannah took a few steps after entering the room, wanting to talk to Deanna, and Raeleigh followed her in and saw Deanna painting on the wall.

“Deanna.”

Focused on her painting, not believing anyone would be visiting her, it wasn’t until Raeleigh called out that Deanna froze for a second and turned. Seeing it was Raeleigh, she squealed.

However, Deanna also got Raeleigh surprised. She had put on weight!
