Getting My Ex-wife Back

Rossie and Zorion eyeballed each other when they saw Santiago kiss Raeleigh. Then, Santiago got out of bed, picked Raeleigh up and walked out. Rossie turned around and followed him. She asked Zorion, “Isn’t their relationship a bit, uh, I don’t know-questionable?”

Zorion’s eyes were deep. “Tell me one that isn’t.”

Rossie was stunned for a moment before she turned to look at Zorion. “Why are you speaking in riddles?”

“No reason.” After that, Zorion followed them outside, with Rossie at his heels.

No sooner had Raeleigh arrived at the emergency room than the doctor performed a brief examination on her. The doctor did not ask Santiago to leave because he had already come into close contact with Raeleigh. Santiago remained by Raeleigh’s side after she was transferred to the isolation ward.

Raeleigh’s fever gradually subsided after the doctor gave her an injection. However, she still felt slightly uncomfortable. She would murmur and toss around from time to time.

Raeleigh felt sore in her arm after receiving the injection. However, she was still in a delirium. It was inevitable that she would feel uneasy.

Santiago stayed by her side, holding her other hand.

Raeleigh would then stop moving.

Rossie sat outside the isolation ward. “Do you think that Santiago’s feelings for her are real?”

Zorion was sitting beside her. When Rossie asked him, he glanced at her and said, “So long as he himself is clear with his feelings, there’s no need to put up an act for anyone’s eyes.”

“Why do you sound like you are talking about us?”

“Am I?” Zorion did not want to say anything. However, judging by Santiago’s actions, he concurred with her-Santiago had crossed the line!

“I mean, it’s so quintessential Santiago to act within the boundary. He knows what to do and what not to do. However, this time, it seems like Jepherson might have to send the helve after the hatchet.”

Zorion muttered to himself. It sounded as if he wanted Rossie to hear it as well. Rossie looked puzzled. “What do you mean?”

“Jepherson believed in his intuition. His intuition told him that Santiago would know where to draw the line when it came to Raeleigh.

However, love knows no bounds. Just like us, I was willing to abandon Deanna just for you.”

Zorion bowed his head slightly. He did not expect to be forgiven for what he had done to Deanna.

It was because of this that he felt heavy in his chest. It was so heavy that he could not breathe.

Rossie clasped her hand with his and said, “You’re doing this for Deanna. I’d wanted to tell you a long time ago that Jacky is a good person.”

Zorion turned to look at Rossie. “How so? Is it because he’s so aesthetically pleasing that you are trying to defend him?”

“You’re not making any sense.” Rossie pulled back her hand and rolled her eyes at Zorion. She turned her head away and ignored him.

Zorion chuckled. Although his face was still a little pale, he had a bright smile on his face.

Rossie turned around and stole a glance at him before turning away again. She wondered why she had not noticed that Zorion had a childlike, innocent smile.

“Am I ugly?” Zorion’s voice sounded petulant when he saw her turn away. Rossie turned around and stared at Zorion with spark in her eyes. “Not at all. You’re better looking than Jacky.”

“How do I know whether you’re telling the truth?” Zorion drew his face closer to Rossie, after which she gave him a kiss. “Do you believe it now?”

Zorion was stunned. He could not stop staring at Rossie. Then, he pulled her into his arms and kissed her hard.

The driver quickly turned around.

Rossie was suddenly pushed away and was completely dumbfounded. She did not understand what was going on.

At this time, Zorion asked, “Is Raeleigh having the same symptoms as me?”

Rossie thought for a moment and said, “Yeah… Her symptoms are similar to yours.”

“Hey, would you mind asking around whether Raeleigh and I have the same symptoms?”

The driver immediately went to inquire. Not long after, the driver came back and looked at Zorion. “The doctor said that her test results are out. He confirmed that you and Raeleigh have the same symptoms.”

“Does it mean that I was the one who infected Raeleigh?”

“Your guess is as good as mine.”

The driver felt that Zorion was right, but he did not dare to say it. After all, everything happened too fast.

Zorion had a serious look on his face. “Go and get the doctor. Ask him to give the same injection and medicines to Rossie, now!”

Zorion did not want Rossie to end up in bed like Raeleigh.

The driver understood and went in search of the doctor. Not long after, he came back with a bottle of water in his hand and handed some medicine to Rossie. Zorion only breathed a sigh of relief after she took the medicine.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

However, Rossie’s lips would temporarily be a No-Touching Zone for him.

Raeleigh gradually woke up and was transferred from the isolation ward to an ordinary one. When Zorion saw the frown on Raeleigh’s face, he said, “I think it’s best you guys move into another ward. I don’t want Rossie to get infected with what you have.”

Santiago looked at Zorion and then at Rossie. He ignored her and continued doing what he’d been doing.

He was not planning on moving into another ward.

This was Santiago’s nature-he had an authority issue and would not take orders from anyone.

Since Santiago was not budging, Zorion called for his driver to get another ward ready for them so that he and Rossie could move in.

“What are you doing? Aren’t I fine and dandy now?”

Rossie felt like Zorion had given her an eye-opening experience. How could there be such a person? Apparently, a friend in health was a friend indeed, while a friend in sickness was a friend no more.

How could there be such a person? He forsook them in times of sickness.

“If they are not gonna move, we will.” Zorion got out of bed and put on his shoes, intending to leave.

Raeleigh couldn’t say anything, though she hoped Rossie would stay. After all, if Rossie left, it meant that she would be alone with Santiago.

However, she was now having a severe flu and would feel bad if Rossie was infected.

Rossie pulled a long face and said, “You were the one who infected Raeleigh, and now you want to up and leave? Don’t you feel bad?”

Zorion put on his clothes, reached out for Rossie’s hand, and strode outside. Closing the door, he went into another ward.

After they left, Raeleigh pulled the quilt over her body. She closed her eyes and did not speak.

She wanted to call Jepherson, but for some reason, he had not visited last night, nor had he called her. She guessed that he was probably on a full workaholic mode.

Raeleigh turned over and lay down. Her ribs did not hurt anymore, but she still felt a little weak. She always felt a little cold and her head was heavy.

Santiago poured a glass of water and handed it to Raeleigh. She did not take it, so Santiago put it down and continued keeping his eyes on Raeleigh.

As a result, neither of them spoke for the entire day. Santiago could sit for an entire day, while Raeleigh could sleep for an entire day.

When the nurse came in for the first time, she saw two people-one sitting, one lying, both with their eyes closed.

Raeleigh opened her eyes while she received her injection, so did Santiago.

Santiago advised the nurse to be gentle. However, Raeleigh soon closed her eyes.

When the nurse came in for the second time, Raeleigh was still sleeping. Santiago was seated in the same spot. They both opened their eyes together when Raeleigh received the injection. Santiago again reminded the nurse to be gentle.

In the evening, the nurse came in again and was stunned to see them still frozen in time, with their positions remained unchanging.
