Getting My Ex-wife Back

Jepherson turned around, walked to the door and waited for Raeleigh outside. It was only after she relieved herself that Jepherson turned around. By then, Raeleigh had already stood up. Jepherson walked over to her and carried her to the bed. After that, he fetched a basin of water to clean Raeleigh’s feet.

Raeleigh watched as Jepherson returned to the bathroom to pour away the water. She did not say a word and also had no idea what Jepherson was up to.

When Jepherson came back, Raeleigh was still staring at him. He looked haggard. It was as if he hadn’t slept for a few days.

“I’m tired. Let’s both get some rest.”

Jepherson then crawled into the bed next to her. Raeleigh then asked him, “Did Shaney call you?”

Raeleigh thought for a long time. Besides Shaney, no one else knew where she was.

Over the past few years, Shaney had been asking about Jepherson. She enjoyed hanging out with Santiago, but ever since Raeleigh told her that Santiago was his uncle, Shaney stopped pestering Raeleigh about wanting a brother.

Although Shaney was young, she was a bright child. She was a computer genius. There were some things Raeleigh wanted to control, but she couldn’t.

Jepherson did not answer Raeleigh’s question, but Raeleigh knew that she had guessed it right. After lying down, she said, “What do you want to do?”

“I want to know what’s going on between you and Santiago?”

“What else could it be?”

“Are you together or not?”

“Does it matter?”

“You shouldn’t see him. You can only be his sister-in-law.”

“Is this fair to him?”

“Is this fair to me?”

Raeleigh closed her eyes and felt a sharp pain shot through her entire body.

It was extremely painful.

Raeleigh took a breath and soon succumbed to sleep.

Raeleigh’s condition was pretty serious. She barely had any strength. The next day, Jepherson decided to seek a hospital transfer for Raeleigh. Before they knew it, they were on a plane back to Capital City.

Raeleigh looked out of the plane window and subconsciously got lost in her memories. She was heading back to a place where she grew up, but too many things happened in the later years. Raeleigh thought that she was just having a terrible nightmare, but soon realised that it was her reality.

By the time the plane landed, Jepherson’s car was already waiting for them. After they disembarked, Jepherson immediately took Raeleigh straight to the hospital in Waverly Village.

Even the best hospitals in Capital City could not be compared to the one in Waverly Village.

As soon as they arrived, the doctor gave Raeleigh a thorough examination. However, Jepherson did not want her to exert any strength, so he carried her around.

The doctor suggested to Jepherson that it was best if he used a wheelchair to avoid causing unnecessary discomfort to the patient.

But Jepherson immediately refused.

He was so eloquent that he said the doctor did not need to worry.

Raeleigh wanted to laugh at that time, but others were shocked by Jepherson’s uncompromising demeanour. No one said anything at this time.

By the time Raeleigh was sent to the room, it was already six in the evening and the doctor was still not done examining Raeleigh. So, Jepherson suggested that he continue the examination tomorrow.

Raeleigh immediately fell into deep sleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.

Jepherson still had other things to do, but he decided to call it a night at nine.

The next day, the doctor continued to examine Raeleigh. Soon, the doctor came up with a treatment plan and Raeleigh immediately started with the treatment.

But at the beginning of the treatment, Jepherson had a private conversation with the doctors.

The content of the conversation was confidential. It was only after the conversation that Raeleigh began treatment. It only took 20 days before she fully recovered.

The doctors also said it was rare that a patient could recover so quickly.

Raeleigh’s discharge procedure was relatively complicated, but it turned out that it was Jepherson who helped take care of it.

Raeleigh did not know what to say, but she knew she had to say something.

Deanna was stunned when she saw Raeleigh emerged from the hospital. She had her kids with her. It took her a long time before she came back to her senses.

“Raeleigh, is that really you?”

Raeleigh also did not expect to bump into Deanna as soon as she stepped out of the hospital.

Raeleigh said, “Hi Deanna, it’s been a long time.”

The Deanna that she remembered was no different than the Deanna that was standing in front of her. Raeleigh suddenly realised that Deanna did not seem to age one bit since the last time she saw her.

Raeleigh smiled at Daenna, who immediately pulled her into the arms and gave her a big hug.

The little girl, who was standing beside Deanna, pouted and said, “Hey! That’s my mother!”

Raeleigh froze for a moment and looked down at the child. She was beautiful. Raeleigh smiled and let go of Deanna. Then, she knelt down and came face to face with the girl. “What’s your name?”Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Jacqueline.”

Raeleigh froze for a moment when she heard her name.

“God’s favored daughter?”

“How did you know?”

“Only your father can think of such a domineering name. Where’s your father? What’s he doing right now?”

It had been many years since she last saw Jacky. Raeleigh was suddenly very curious to know how he looked now.

Jacqueline raised her hand and pointed to the other side. Raeleigh turned around and looked over. She saw a man was walking towards them. He was dressed very casually, like a street vendor. The moment Jacky saw Raeleigh, he stopped and asked, “Hey! You’re back!”

They were like family members who had not seen each other for many years. Jacky knew that she would return sooner or later. Hence, he did not look nor sound surprised. Raeleigh remained silent. Jacky then looked over Raeleigh’s shoulder. However, he did not see the person he was looking for. He walked over to Raeleigh’s side and asked, “Are you alone? Where’s everyone else?”

Raeleigh said, “Santiago took them on a trip. I have been travelling for about a month now. I set up my own company in Ocean City, but as soon as I got off the plane, I bumped into Jepherson and injured myself. I just got out of the hospital today.”

Jacky immediately understood what was going on, so he looked at Jepherson. Jepherson did not say anything, but just stood aside and waited for Raeleigh.

Jacky asked Raeleigh, “Have you eaten anything?”

“No, not yet.”

“Perfect! Why don’t you come over to my place?”

Jacky bent down and picked up his daughter. He kissed Jacqueline’s cheek then said to her, “This is the aunt that I told you about.”

Jacqueline looked at Raeleigh and said, “Nice to meet you.”

Raeleigh smiled. According to her relationship with Deanna and Jacky, she was indeed her aunt.

Raeleigh said, “Your daughter is so beautiful. Did you name your daughter after you? Isn’t that a little arrogant?”

Raeleigh wondered. Only a true friend would say something like that. Jacqueline was Rayan’s granddaughter and Jacky’s daughter. Rayan was the most powerful person in Capital City while Jacky was the most powerful person in Waverly Village. It was probably inappropriate to give his daughter such a domineering name.

Jacky smiled very casually, “Actually, it’s just a name. It doesn’t matter. It’s just that there are some things that can’t be changed. Even if I wanted to keep a low profile, those people might not give me a chance. So, why not go all out?”

Raeleigh gently patted Jacqueline’s head, “But she’s a girl.”

“What’s wrong with it? Girls can also accomplish great things. My daughter will be outstanding when she grows up.”

Raeleigh knew what Jacky meant. Since he had made up his mind, she decided to drop the subject.
