Getting My Ex-wife Back

“Do you think I will break my promise?” Jepherson stared at Santiago as Santiago said, “Your physique is about the same as mine. I can go with Raeleigh. We will attend it if we can catch up, but if we can’t, we won’t attend it.”

“Are you using this as an excuse to go on a vacation?”

“We’ve agreed that it’ll be just a shopping trip.” Santiago knocked on the top of the car. Jepherson replied, “I’ll postpone the press conference for three days. You must come back in three days.”

“Sure.” Santiago waved at Raeleigh, whose face fell. “I’m not going,” she refused.

Jepherson gazed at her. “Are you afraid of him?”

“Who said I was afraid of him? It’s just that I don’t want to go out with him.”

Raeleigh didn’t lack clothes. Hence she didn’t intend to go. From the looks of Santiago, he seemed to be planning something.

Raeleigh did not want to be deceived by him.

“You can use the money in these cards and remember to take care of Raeleigh.”

Jepherson opened his coat and took out a few cards, handing them over to Santiago, who then took the card and sat into the car with a grin. “Chauffeur, send me back. I need to get my passport.”

“I don’t want to go,” Raeleigh insisted. Leaning against the seat, Jepherson held her hand. “Didn’t you say you want to buy a suit for your brother?”

Raeleigh looked at him. “I can buy it here.”

“It’s our first time giving him a gift. We have to get one better than his previous one. It has to cost more than a hundred thousand dollars. Can such a suit be found here?” Jepherson leaned against the seat with his eyes narrowed.

“More than a hundred thousand dollars?” Raeleigh did not see it coming, and her face was filled with astonishment. Wide-eyed, Jepherson looked at the woman beside him. “Do you think that the Osteen family is poor?”

Raeleigh did not answer. Her family was indeed wealthy. Every time her parents went out, they would purchase valuable gifts for her. Some of which came with a price beyond her imagination. Even so, she did not expect Xanthus’s clothes to be so expensive.

After a while, Raeleigh asked, “Are you sure it’s that expensive?”

“Absolutely,” said Santiago.

Laying on the opposite side of the car, he bent and crossed his legs due to his height. Raeleigh stared at him gloomily. “What an excuse to justify your intention of going on a trip. You didn’t even wear his suit.”

“There’s an eminent international fashion designer, Welmen. He has a well-known brand for men under his branding. They only produce ten pieces of clothing each period. They are completely hand-made, and the quality is excellent.”

Raeleigh was fascinated by Jepherson’s words. He added, “Santiago’s and my clothes are designed by him too. Although the Richards Family has our own in-house designers, we still seek his help. My parents are also his friends. If you go there, I believe he will also devote his time to design clothes for you.”

“This time, I will call Welmen personally and ask him to design a set of wedding attire for us. If it’s a set…”

“We haven’t decided on a wedding yet. Isn’t it inappropriate to book a wedding dress so early?”

In Raeleigh’s mind, there was no need to be hasty.

“Since…” As Jepherson spoke, Raeleigh’s phone rang, and she picked it up. It was Xanthus. Raeleigh froze for a moment upon hearing it. “I got it. I’ll be right there.”

“I’m going to the airport. My parents are coming.”

Jepherson swept his eyes toward Raeleigh, whereas Santiago got up from his seat.

The Richards brothers had not expected that her parents would come at this time.

“Go to the airport,” Jepherson ordered immediately. After that, he called his father, Hansen, to explain what had happened here.

Jenna woke up from her sleep. She had no clue what was going on as she was still sleepy.

Hearing her son’s voice on the phone, she was bemused, wondering why her son was calling them at this time.

“I see. I’ll leave with your mother right away.”

After Hansen had hung up, she asked curiously, “Who called?”

Hansen looked at his beloved wife. “Something happened to Jerry. Let’s go and take a look first.”

Hansen got out of the bed and put on his clothes. Jenna asked hurriedly, “What happened? Did they quarrel?”

“It’s about the company.”

“The company?” Hearing that it was not about her son but the company, Jenna changed her tune then and there. She didn’t care about it anymore.

While changing his clothes, Hansen observed his wife. Her reaction didn’t seem bizarre to him as he had gotten accustomed to it.

In her eyes, she only cared about her family as money was not as important to her.

After changing his clothes, Hansen bent down to kiss his wife. “Get up.”

Jenna got out of bed slowly, got dressed, and went out with Hansen while yawning.

Jenna was in her forties, but she acted like a young girl when with Hansen. He would always make sure to walk in front of her and take care of her. From time to time, he would turn around to look at her or pull her towards him.

After packing up, they headed straight for the airport.

Marissa heard that they had left. She asked the servants, “Did you guys see Madam Jenna’s expression when she was leaving?”

“Yes, she was not in a hurry at all, but Mr. Hansen was. He even urged Madam to be faster, but she still took her time.”

Marissa lowered her head and considered for a moment. “It seems that it isn’t about Stella. Stella should be staying abroad to receive treatment currently.

Maybe it’s related to the company.”

Marissa was well aware that Jenna only cared about her husband and two sons. She never bothered about the company’s affairs, as if those things had nothing to do with her.

Her sons, on the other hand, meant differently to her. Any minor problems to them were enough to put her in agitation.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Raeleigh saw Xanthus waiting and checking the time occasionally when she arrived at the airport. She ran over speedily. When he saw her, he asked, “Getting nervous?”

Raeleigh shook her head. “No. Didn’t you say they were going to arrive the day after tomorrow? Why has the time been moved up?”

“I’m not sure. I just got a call from Grandma, telling us to pick them up as they are on the flight.”

“Grandma called you?”

“Yeah.”

Xanthus glanced at the Richards brothers and said, “You brothers do follow her everywhere.”

“We were heading to the mall,” Jepherson explained.

Lamar and Jazelle came to the arrival hall. Lamar was pushing the suitcases, whereas Jazelle held her husband’s arm. They were walking towards them with quite the amount of luggage.

“Here they are.” Seeing them, Jepherson hugged Raeleigh and took her there. Xanthus raised his hand and lowered his head to look around before he walked over.

“Dad, Mom!”

Raeleigh walked to them at once. Lamar gave way to his wife and Raeleigh. Jazelle sized Raeleigh up, but she neither spoke nor behaved close to her.

Finding it strange, Raeleigh stood still. Then, Lamar and Jazelle walked to Xanthus. Jazelle gave him an inquiring look and asked, “Why is she with someone else?”
