Getting My Ex-wife Back

Standing by the stairs, Raeleigh watched as Flynt hurried down with a worried look on his face. He came alone and unarmed.

“Don’t you jump.”

Flynt looked at the two attackers. “Who are you people? What are you doing here? This is a hospital. You can’t escape now. I’ve already called the police and they are on their way.”

Flynt said as he walked down, his gait hesitant. The two men traded glances. Then, gun-holding man pointed his gun at Flynt. “You screwed up our plan! Our boss isn’t gonna like us botching up anyway, we might as well kill you. R. I. P., you sucker.”

As the man spoke, he pulled the trigger and fired his gun at Flynt. However, Flynt managed to dodge the bullet and it struck the wall. Flynt shouted, “Why are you still standing there!”All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

Raeleigh disregarded everything else, turned around and ran into the crowd.

When the attackers saw Raeleigh leave, they immediately turned to look at Flynt; however, Flynt was nowhere to be seen.

Afraid of being caught, the two attackers fled the hospital in a hurry. At this time, the police had also arrived at the door.

Raeleigh hid in a dark corner and watched as the two attackers ran past her. She came out once they were out of sight.

Before the police came to them, Flynt walked over to Raeleigh and asked, “Are you alright?”

Raeleigh froze for a moment, then slowly turned around to look at Flynt. However, his breathing was still ragged. Raeleigh was lost in thought when she saw him. “How is it you?”

“Why can’t it be me? Why can’t I be the hero for once?” After saying that, Flynt stepped towards the stairs. Raeleigh felt puzzled. Had she hit a nerve in him?

When Raeleigh saw Flynt leaving, and since he was the one who saved her, she quickly followed him and called out, “Flynt.”

Flynt quickened his footsteps. If it wasn’t because of the police officer who stopped him at the door, he would definitely not stop.

“You are not allowed to leave. There was an incident that happened earlier, so I need you to stay here and cooperate with us.” The policeman was dressed in plain clothes but armed. It was only when Flynt stopped that Raeleigh managed to catch up to him.

When Raeleigh saw the police officer, she informed him, “There were two people who wanted to kill me just now. I don’t know them. One was armed with a gun while the other had a knife…”

Raeleigh explained to the police officer. The police officer asked Raeleigh, “Who are you? What’s your name?”

“My name is Raeleigh Anson. I came to the hospital to visit a friend. I did not expect such a thing to happen. I’m sorry to have caused you trouble. It’s obvious that those people were coming for me.”

After Raeleigh finished her words, the police officer looked around and waved his hand, indicating to his men that it was safe to enter the building.

Then, the police officer looked at Flynt, who remained quiet. “You look familiar. Who are you?”

“I was just passing by and saw that she was being chased. So, I came out to help her.” Flynt’s face was tensed up. He did not want to show his face.

Raeleigh thought of Moore family’s strict rules and explained to the police, “Is it alright if we don’t want this incident to be made public? We don’t want our family to find out about this.”

“We are also worried that it will cause panic, so you can rest assured.” The police officer took out his walkie-talkie and asked, “Did you guys manage to find anything?”

Raeleigh took a look at Flynt and said, “They’ll probably need us to give a statement. Let’s wait at the side.”

Raeleigh turned around and walked over to a nearby bench. She was still a little shaken up by the incident.

After a while, Flynt walked up to the bench and took the seat beside her, not saying a word. Raeleigh quietly looked over at his coat sleeve and realised that he had lost an arm.

Raeleigh asked him, “Was it Jepherson who did this?”

Flynt scoffed. “Need you ask?”

Raeleigh froze for a moment. In fact, she knew it, but she couldn’t change anything. After all, Flynt had done something he shouldn’t have done. This was to teach him a lesson.

However, no one had expected Flynt to be exiled to the countryside after he had lost his position in the Moore family.

Raeleigh was silent for a while before changing topics. “How have you been these days?”

“I just came over yesterday for a check up,” Flynt said without looking at Raeleigh.

Raeleigh felt wronged as well. Flynt seemed to be taking out his dissatisfaction on her, but this was not her fault. If he had not acted on his own and wanted to harm Santiago, Jepherson would not have sought a tit-for-tat in the form of his arm.

Jepherson and Santiago had already showed clemency.

Raeleigh lowered her eyes. “Thank you for earlier.”

“Don’t mention it. If it happens again, I will not turn around and help you,” Flynt said without hesitation, his face cold.

Raeleigh looked at Flynt. “There won’t be a next time.”

Raeleigh was too lazy to talk, so she sat there and did not speak. After a long time, Flynt said, “I’m sorry.”

Raeleigh turned to Flynt. “For what?”

“Nothing. It’s just that I can’t seem to control my temper.”

Raeleigh looked at Flynt’s no-arm arm and said, “The technology is very advanced these days. You should consider replacing it with prosthetics. And then you’ll have the ability to manage daily activities and stay independent. In fact, disabled people could still lead a normal life. Don’t be discouraged because of this.”

Raeleigh did not know what else to say. Flynt pretended to be pitiful in front of her, time and again. Even if she knew that it was Flynt who deliberately lied to her, she still could not bring herself to be indifferent.

Raeleigh fixed her eyes on Flynt. He shook his head and said, “I’m fine this way. We don’t have to fight against each other in the future.”

Raeleigh said nothing and sat still. After sitting for a while Flynt asked, “Who are you visiting?”

“Zorion was diagnosed with pneumonia and has been hospitalised. I came to visit him.”

“I can’t believe that you’re willing to visit him but not me. Am I such a pathetic excuse for a human in your eyes?” Flynt lowered his voice, morose.

Raeleigh thought for a moment. “Speak for yourself-I, for one, have never thought that way.”

“But every time something happened to me, you never seemed to spare me so much as a glance. I always hoped that you would at least come and visit, but that was just wishful thinking on my part.”

“…”

Raeleigh did not think about it, nor did she intend to visit him, so she kept quiet.

While she did not answer Flynt, someone filled in for her.

“So what if she didn’t visit you? Excusez-moi, but why does she have to?” Raeleigh heard Santiago’s voice from a distance. She looked up and saw Santiago swaggering towards them, his face frosting over.

Raeleigh sat there. She felt that something was going to happen, so she did not move. She sat there quietly and watched the devil’s spawn Santiago walk towards her.

Santiago did not even look at Raeleigh. He asked Flynt with a cold face, “Have you not learned your lesson? What do you want? Courting death? There’s a special section in hell reserved for a pretentious diva like you and I can arrange that.”
