Getting My Ex-wife Back

Raeleigh was a little flustered when she entered the bathroom.

She splashed some cold water on her face.

She stood inside the bathroom for a while longer before deciding to come out.

At this time, Jepherson was sitting on the bed as his men reported the details of the investigation to him, including the food poisoning case.

“Wait, you’re saying that the man who poisoned me wants to meet up with me?” Jepherson asked with interest. The person nodded. “Yes, he said if you want to know who asked him to poison your food, then you would have to go and see him.”

Jepherson chuckled. “Well, you can tell him there’s no need. I don’t want to know who gave him the orders.”

The man turned around and left. Raeleigh waited for the man to leave before asking Jepherson curiously, “You know who poisoned you?”

Jepherson smiled at Raeleigh before pulling her into his arms.

“It doesn’t matter. Anyways, it’s not like it’s impossible for us to find out who gave him the orders. There’s no need for me to meet up with him. Besides, we don’t know what his motive is.”Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

“Since you don’t know, why don’t you meet him and try to find out?” It was better to know rather than to keep guessing.

Jepherson wasn’t in a hurry. He leaned against one side and pulled Raeleigh onto the bed. “Nothing is set in stone. It’s normal for people to want to hurt us. There’s bound to be bad people in this world, if there isn’t, then that’s a problem.”

Raeleigh looked at Jepherson. “Did you already know who poisoned you from the beginning?”

Jepherson smiled. “Not really. It’s just that I’ve already promised the mayor that if he releases Santiago and finds out the truth, we will not make a big issue out of this. That’s all.”

“So you’ve compromised on this matter?”

“You can say that.” Jepherson didn’t want to talk much about it, but he didn’t want to hide anything from Raeleigh either.

“I had to do it for Santiago. Since the mayor has already said so, then I have to give him the benefit of the doubt and not make an enemy of the government officials. It would be best if we could get along well with each other.”

“I heard that the mayor and your father are friends?” Raeleigh asked. Jepherson laughed, “Remember, in this world, there are no permanent friends or permanent enemies, only permanent interests.”

Raeleigh stared at Jepherson. She inexplicably felt nervous. Although his expression was the same as before, she still felt that there was something different about it. She just couldn’t put a finger on it. At least she knew that the Jepherson in the future would be the same as he was now.

Raeleigh sat for a while and thought to herself, “Since I chose this path, no matter how tough it is, I have to keep walking.”

Although they would never fight any battle unprepared, but who knew when this battle would begin?

Raeleigh got out of bed and briefly tidied up the room. Then, she took out her laptop and started browsing.

Jepherson knew Raeleigh had something to do, so he did not want to disturb her.

After Raeleigh finished her work, she went back to accompany Jepherson. He had already fallen asleep.

In the evening, Xanthus came by with Jacky. By then, Raeleigh had already finish cooking dinner as well as Jepherson’s soup. Santiago arrived not long after Xanthus and Jacky. He was surprised to see Raeleigh.

When Raeleigh saw Santiago, she immediately walked up to him and made sure that he was fine. When she was sure that he was fine, she invited Santiago to join them for dinner.

After dinner, Raeleigh sat by the side and fiddled with her phone while Jepherson asked Santiago about the details of his investigation.

“It’s probably someone from the Moore family, but I’m not completely sure.” Santiago had done some investigating and everything pointed to the Moore family.

After eating, Jepherson stood up and walked across the room. He wiped his hands and glanced at Raeleigh. He found a place to sit down and looked at Santiago. “Why aren’t you sure?”

“Did Colston contact you?” Santiago retorted. Jepherson said, “Yes, I talked to him about the car accident. He can guarantee that it was not done by the Moore family and he did hint that Yanora was no longer part of the Moore family.”

“It means that he found out that Yanora did it, but he didn’t want to kill her. Instead, he wants to find someone to do the dirty work.”

After Santiago was done with his dinner, he got up and washed his hands before returning to sit beside Jepherson to discuss the matter. Raeleigh, Jacky and Xanthus remained quiet as they spoke.

However, Jepherson said, “Even if Colston is such a person, it’s still too early for him to let the cat out of the bag. That’s why I don’t think it’s him.”

“That is…”

“Colston may get into trouble. Since Flynt is unable to do anything at the moment and Colston is a nobody in the Moore family, it would be unreasonable for him to punish Yanora at this time.”

“The Moore family is different from other families. Colston is isolated and helpless. If he really did take matters into his own hands, I doubt he will have a good life in the future. He has to think about it. Therefore, the only thing he can do now is investigate Yanora’s matter as a favour for us.”

“Then his plans are crystal clear. What have we done?” Santiago was still unhappy.

“I have already talked to the mayor. He promised to investigate and bring them to justice.”

“So we don’t have to intervene in this matter. Let’s leave it to the authorities.”

Santiago raised an eyebrow. “You’re acting a little strange. Did someone bribe you?”

“No, I’m doing this for you.” Jepherson stood up. “I’m tired. I’m going to take a nap.”

“It’s been a few days, why are you still so tired?” Santiago immediately asked Jepherson. Jepherson lay down and didn’t answer. He didn’t even open his eyes. However, he did not look like he was sleeping. It seemed like he just wanted to rest his eyes. But if he wasn’t sleeping, why didn’t he answer Santiago’s question?

Santiago wasn’t worried about Jepherson. He took off his clothes and lay down.

Raeleigh glanced at the brothers and felt that they looked like lunatics.

“You guys can spend the night in the room next door.” Raeleigh wouldn’t be at ease if Xanthus were to rest alone. Thankfully, Jacky was around.

Xanthus also knew that Raeleigh was worried about Jepherson, who had lost a lot of blood.

“Rest early.” Xanthus and Jacky went to the room next door. After they left, Raeleigh looked at the two men lying on the bed. She felt that the brothers was truly one of a kind and she happened to have met them.

Raeleigh admitted that she was unlucky. She walked towards the other bed and briefly tidied it before lying down.

The ward soon became quiet. It wasn’t long before the room was filled with Santiago snoring. Raeleigh wanted to cover him with the quilt, but Jepherson unexpectedly got down from the bed and pulled the quilt over Santiago’s body.

Raeleigh didn’t get up. Jepherson looked at her and placed a finger on his lips, gesturing for her to keep quiet. Then, he turned around and went back.

Raeleigh couldn’t imagine what someone like Jepherson would be like if he really had a sister.

She wondered whether his sister would be as domineering as her brothers?
