Go After My Ex-wife

Chapter 1820 Won't Marry Him in Her Lifetime

"Come on. Let's have a stroll." Austin stood up and took Raeleigh outside. They walked around the

prison, appearing to be small in contrast to the tall walls. Raeleigh looked at everything around her and

harked back to the old days when she was brought here, falling into a brown study.

The vivid memory of the past was upsetting and it caused a dull pain in her heart whenever she

recalled it.

Numerous events had transpired in the past, so Raeleigh was lost in thoughts shortly. She didn't expect

that she would be snatched from the jaws of death so many times. For so many years, starting from the

time she could remember things in childhood, the fire was like a curse, haunting her until the day when

everything had settled.

It was not until she was on her last legs that she snapped out of it gradually.

Raeleigh asked, "How is the investigation going?"

Austin turned around and threw a glance at Raeleigh. "Have you ever thought about who was behind

that fire?"

Raeleigh was stunned for a long time before she replied, "Back in the day, the Doyle family must have

been aware of my existence from the beginning. Why did they wait for ten years before they took action

to burn a lot of other kids and me to death? If the Doyle family wanted to kill me, no one would notice if

they went in and murdered me secretly. There are plenty of ways to make a child die and the Doyle

family must be able to perform it perfectly."

"You're still as smart as ever."

As Austin spoke, he looked out the door of the prison with his hands clasped behind. "This is also the

reason I've objected to you and Jepherson's marriage.

Raeleigh, I know that you're still thinking about Jepherson. Whether you and Santiago are just having a

fling or you are going for the real deal, I have to remind you that you can't marry into the Harvey family

as long as Paige is still alive.

Based on Santiago's personality, he is going to protect you. If you become his woman, he won't

mistreat you. However, Jepherson is different. He will prioritize the big picture. You're a mere pawn in

his game.

For the sake of the bigger picture, he will sacrifice you if it's needed."

"I'm aware of it."

"Since you know it, why are you still letting the attachment to him creep over you?"

"For some things, I always thought that I could control them. By the time I realized that I couldn't, I was

already stuck in them."

"So?"

"In my lifetime, I won't marry Jepherson. I've no interest in being the mistress of the Harvey family. I

only want to lead a peaceful life."

"I'm glad that you can think in this way."

"Austin."

"Yeah?"

"Was it really Paige?"

"Well..." Austin smirked. "In fact, Paige has long known that the Doyle family is unscrupulous but she

has been shaming ignorance. Furthermore, she tries to fix Stella and Jepherson up. She's well aware

that if the Harvey doesn't form a bond with the Doyles, the scandalous incident she did will come to

light. She acts to protect herself and Hudson.

As for the fire in the orphanage, you should know the difference between killing a kid and a bunch of

kids."

"They did it to cover up the truth so that people can't know their true motive and target, am I right?"

Austin did not reply to Raeleigh's question, but she knew that he had already given an answer since he

made no effort to correct her because he did not need to.

"Santiago is here. I want to go out for a while."

"Let Lenold go with you. I believe that Paige does not have the guts to touch you now. I think it's a good

idea for you to give her a warning, or she will be too cocky.

By the way, do me a favor by passing a message to her. Tell her that I won't let you marry into the

Harvey family in her remaining years."

"Austin."

"If you don't say it, I'll ask Lenold to do it."

"I'll tell her then."

Raeleigh agreed with him, turned around and went outside. It would be troublesome if Lenold were the

one to pass the message to Paige.

After leaving Green House, Raeleigh got into the car. Lenold shot a glance at her and drove her to

Harvey Group Manor.

As the car came to a stop, Raeleigh emerged from it and glanced at the gate of Harvey Group Manor.

After that, she went forward to ring the bell.

The servants thought she was here to visit Jepherson, so they opened the gate right away.

However, Raeleigh made her way to Ink Garden, where Madam Paige resided. They wondered why

Raeleigh was going there.

The servants dashed to Fragrance Garden to inform their masters, Belle and Calvin.

The couple had been looking after their son, Jepherson, who was ill. Jepherson had been in bed and

relying on nutrient fluids to sustain his life. It was a heart-rending event for them since their son fell ill

immediately after the other recovered.

The servant apprised them of Raeleigh's arrival and that she went to Ink Garden. Belle gaped at Calvin

at once. "Why did Raeleigh head for Ink Garden?"

Calvin chewed over it for a bit. "I've no idea. Let's go and check it out."

The two of them got up, so did Jepherson. He removed all the needles from his arms. Belle took a coat

quickly and helped him go to Ink Garden.

Concurrently, Raeleigh had just entered the door to find that Hudson was sitting in the living room. He

was reeling at the sight of her.

"Why are you here? Haven't you created enough fuss?"

She broke up with Jepherson to be with Santiago. What a joke! What was worse, she even got

pregnant?

Raeleigh stood by the door. "I'm here to say my farewell and inquire about something. Is Madam Paige

here?"

"You don't have the right to see her. Just leave."

Hudson had complicated emotions. In his eyes, Raeleigh should draw the line even if she wanted to

bully them. Her behavior had hurt them to the core.

"I won't leave until I've met her." Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Raeleigh stood by the door and refused to leave, causing Hudson to pull a long face. Meanwhile, Paige

came out of her room.

Paige had been keeping a low profile lately. She did not step out of the house.

She was aware of Raeleigh's arrival, so she came out.

Seeing Paige, Raeleigh said, "Greetings to you, Madam."

Paige gave a sardonic smile. "When did you become so polite? Aren't you here to exasperate me to

death? You've killed countless people, haven't you? Do you still care about an old woman like me?"

Raeleigh fixed her eyes on Paige. "Indeed, I've killed countless people and my hands are full of blood,

but I've never killed innocent people. Those who die in my hands are all sinful."

"Wow, this is the first time I see someone who can still be so self-righteous after killing people."

Paige walked from the door to Raeleigh and sized Raeleigh up with her usual undisguised contempt.

Paige had absolutely no regard for Raeleigh.

Paige sat down on the sofa herself, but did not invite Raeleigh to do the same. She asked Raeleigh,

"Why are you looking for me?"

"I'm here to inquire about an one event in the past."

Paige looked up slightly. "Is it about you being taken away by me?"

"I've known about it since a long time ago and there's no need to bring it up again as I'm not interested

to know the details. Madam, I believe that you're the only one who can shed some light on something

else for me."

"Really? Go ahead, let me decide if I know it."

With a calm expression, Raeleigh said unceremoniously, "A dreadful fire took place in the orphanage I

lived in when I was ten years old. Madam, I would like to know if you had instructed someone to set

that fire."

Paige's face fell suddenly. She clenched her hands and stared at Raeleigh without saying anything.

Raeleigh considered briefly. "I've contemplated the possibilities. No one else would want to kill me at

that time except you, Madam."

Paige blanched instantaneously. Sitting there, she glowered at Raeleigh. "Get lost!"
