Getting My Ex-wife Back

Chapter 1409 Deceived



After getting out of the car, Raeleigh made a call to Xanthus to confirm the time that he was coming home. This time, she managed to get through.

“Xanthus…”

“I’m back. Where are you?”

Xanthus arrived at home not long ago. When he realized that Raeleigh wasn’t home, his first thought was that she was most likely with Santiago. So, he got into his car and was about to over to the Richards Group Manor when he received Raeleigh’s call.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“I just arrived at the Richards Group Manor,” Raeleigh said as she entered the house. At this time, Jepherson had just pulled up at the house, but he did not get out of the car.

Raeleigh was startled by the headlights and immediately turned around. However, Jepherson instructed the driver, “Why did you stop? Continue driving!”

The driver was puzzed. “But Miss Anson…”

“I said drive!”

At an instant, terror coursed through the driver’s veins. He thought to himself, “Mr. Santiago is also here. It seemed like Mr. Santiago cares more about Miss Anson than Mr. Jepherson. If I startled Miss Anson, I’m sure Mr. Santiago would kill me!”

“However, if I did not continue driving, Mr. Jepherson will kill me too!”

The driver forced himself to drive towards Raeleigh. Immediately, Raeleigh hung up the phone. In a daze, she stood in her spot and watched as the driver drive towards her. It was not until the car brushed her coat that Jepherson yelled for the driver to stop.

Raeleigh tilted her head and stared at Jepherson, who was sitting calmly in the car. He rested his chin on his hand and he watched Raeleigh, who remained unfazed.

On the other hand, Santiago remained indifferent. He got out of the car and let out a yawn. Then, he made his way towards the Green Jade Garden to change his clothes.

Raeleigh stood still in front of the car and did not move as Jepherson remained in the car.

The driver broke out in a cold sweat. He did not know what to do.

“Mr. Jepherson.”

The driver called out. Only then Jepherson decided to get out of the car. The driver immediately alighted the car to open the door for Jepherson. After getting out of the car, Jepherson made his way over to Raeleigh and asked, “What if the car had hit you?”

“I doubt it. He doesn’t have the guts to do it.” Raeleigh smiled as she looked at the driver, who looked a little embarrassed.

The driver lowered his head, not daring to make eye contact with Raeleigh. He was merely acting on orders and there was nothing he could do.

“What if he did not pull the brakes in time? What if I wanted him to hit you anyways?” Jepherson pulled Raeleigh into his arms and gently caressed her arms. He lowered his head and frowned. “Why is your shirt so dirty?”

“I doubt you would do it.” Raeleigh turned around and walked inside. Jepherson said, “Keep this in mind, no matter what happens.”

With that, Raeleigh wore a smile, “I will.”

Behind them, the driver was nearly scared out of his wits.

Jepherson and Raeleigh then made their way into the Green Jade Garden. In addition, Jenna had already prepared dinner and was waiting for Raeleigh. As soon as Raeleigh entered the door, she immediately made her way to the room to change her clothes. As Jenna had to lend her one of her old clothes, Raeleigh looked a lot like her after putting on those clothes.

At dinner, Jenna informed Raeleigh that the family would be spending new years overseas. Raeleigh was silent for a while. She wanted to tell Jenna that her parents were not around during the new year, but she did not expect that Jenna would bring up this matter.

“Our family prefers to spend new years overseas. We’ll usually be away for about two weeks.”

Raeleigh fixed her eyes on Jenna but did not give a response.

“Raeleigh, would you like to spend the new years with us this year?” Jenna asked as she placed a spoonful of veggies on Raeleigh’s plate. However, Raeleigh did not immediately gave her a reply.

With that, Jenna said, “I know that you’re suppose to be spending the new years with your parents. How about this? Why don’t you spend a couple of days with us before heading over to your parents’? I’ll ask Jerry to accompany you. What do you think?”

Raeleigh did not answer but continued to stare at Jenna. Jenna wondered whether Raeleigh had heard a single word she said?

On the other hand, Raeleigh thought for a long time before answering. However, just as she was about to speak, a servant came in from the door and informed them that Dr. Osteen had arrived.

Thus, Jenna asked the servant to invite him in while she went into the kitchen to get him a plate and cuteries.

As soon as Xanthus came in, Raeleigh stood up and Jepherson went over to greet him.

“Have you had your dinner?” Jepherson asked. As Xanthus had come to pick Raeleigh up, he was planning to head over to the grocery store on the way home to get some ingredients to make dinner.

He did not expect that Raeleigh would be having dinner here. So, he decided to join them.

“Not yet.”

“Come and join us.”

Jepherson glanced at Raeleigh before pulling up a chair for Xanthus next to her. In the Richards family, such a gesture reflected how much Jepherson respected Xanthus.

Xanthus took off his coat and handed it to Raeleigh. She hung it in the coatroom before showing him where the restroom was so that he could wash his hands. After that, they went back to the table and began their dinner.

Jenna was very sociable and loved talking to Xanthus. She was particularly interested when Xanthus mentioned that he was single.

During dinner, Jenna mentioned a couple of girls that she thinks were suitable for Xanthus. Raeleigh did mention Cynthia to remind Jenna, but Jenna ignored her.

Xanthus then said, “I do have someone I like, but due to my identity, I can’t confess my feelings to her.”

“Oh…”

In a trice, Jenna stopped talking. After dinner, Jenna arranged a room for Xanthus to stay. It was next to Santiago’s room.

Xanthus initially did not want to spend the night here, but he changed his mind at the last minute.

After all, his sister was spending the night here as well.

When night fell, the entire Richards Group Manor fell into silence. Almost everyone was asleep, except for a few.

At this time, Raeleigh was in bed, panting hard, but someone was panting even harder than she was.

Jepherson finally calmed down, but he still did not want to leave. Instead, he bent down to kiss Raeleigh’s body. He pinched Raeleigh gently and said, “Don’t move.”

Raeleigh dared not to move.

Not long after, Raeleigh turned over to check on Jepherson.

Raeleigh closed her eyes and thought to herself. “I thought there was problem with his manhood? He seemed fine.”

With that, Raeleigh felt that she had been deceived.

She even thought of bringing him to visit a herbs specialist to see if he can whip up something for Jepherson.

It seemed like she did not need to bring him now.

“What’s wrong? Are you regretting it now?” Jepherson asked in a low voice. He finally managed to catch his breath, but his voice was still slightly hoarse.

Raeleigh could feel his hot breath on her neck. He deliberately did it even though knew that this was her most sensitive spot.

Both of them were naked. It did not take him much effort to pull her into his arms.

However, whenever they were wrapped in each other’s arms, their hearts would immediately beat twice as fast.

Raeleigh always felt a little out of breath whenever she was held tightly in his arms, but what could she do since he liked it?

If she really could not take it anymore, she would resort to biting him…

Raeleigh bit her lips and covered her head…

She admitted that she was a little worried the moment she knew that her parents were not willing to accept him. Besides, she was also partly to blame for what happened to Jepherson.
