Getting My Ex-wife Back

Jepherson bent down and entered the car. He held Raeleigh’s face and kissed her. “Let’s go home.”

At this time, Stuart was already in the car. The driver then started the car and drove off. The rest of the people followed suit. In the car, Stuart asked, “What about Flynt?”

Jepherson asked, “You haven’t found him?”

“No, not yet.”

Stuart found it strange and wondered why Flynt couldn’t be found?

Jepherson glanced in the rearview mirror and said, “Set the entire village on fire. Make sure there are no casualties. Since the border is on fire, people will not find it suspicious. Flynt planted a large number of poppies near the border, it seems like he is scheming against us. We can’t just let it go.”

Stuart asked, “Do you think Flynt’s still in the village?”

“You don’t know him well enough. He must have fled while we were in the forest.”

After saying that, he leaned against Raeleigh. Just as Raeleigh was about to say something, she could not help but worry about Jepherson’s condition.

Jepherson leaned against Raeleigh, his face as pale as a sheet. Raeleigh raised her hand to touch his face. When she thought back to the scene where Jepherson would rather die in the forest than to follow her out, she suddenly felt a prick in her heart.

She realized that he did it on purpose!

He backed her into a corner and she had no choice but to tell him what the gender of the baby was. He was that smart!

When the car pulled up at the hospital, Raeleigh was still awake. Stuart quickly opened the door and helped Jepherson down. The doctors immediately brought over a gurney. Jepherson lay down on the gurney and said to Raeleigh. “Please don’t go.”

Raeleigh fixed her eyes on him, “You’re about to die, why are you still being so unreasonable?”

Sweat beaded on Stuart’s forehead. Jepherson’s life was hanging by a thread. Could they cut it out for once?

It seemed like the answer was no.

Jepherson told Stuart, “Can you please keep an eye on Raeleigh? If she leaves, then don’t come back until you find her.”

Stuart said hurriedly, “Don’t worry, Mr. Jepherson.”

Jepherson briefly looked over at Raeleigh before closing his eyes as he was wheeled into the emergency room.

Stuart entered the hospital with Raeleigh as he made a phone call to Lucy. While Jepherson was in the emergency room, Raeleigh, too, got her injuries checked out. Although her injuries were not as serious as Jepherson’s, the doctor was still worried that it would get infected if it wasn’t treated properly.

“Get me the plastic surgeon.” The doctor immediately ordered. There was a deep cut on Raeleigh’s body. If it was not treated properly, it would definitely leave a scar and the consequences would be unimaginable.

Stuart immediately contacted the plastic surgeon. Lucy also arrived at the hospital at this time. After checking on Jepherson, Lucy went to see Raeleigh, while Stuart went to see Jepherson.

Raeleigh was basically wrapped like a mummy when she emerged from the treatment room. Lucy breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her. The doctor informed Lucy that Raeleigh was fine and that she just needed to take care of her injuries.

Lucy then accompanied Raeleigh to the ward to take a rest. At this time, Zorion and the rest of the people also arrived at the hospital. They briefly chatted and not long after that, Jepherson was wheeled out of the emergency room and into the same ward as Raeleigh.

By then, Jacky, Deanna, Zorion and Rossie had all arrived.

The moment Deanna saw Raeleigh lying on a bed like a mummy, she could not help but cry. If it weren’t for Jacky holding her back, she would have rushed over to Raeleigh’s side.

Rossie remained calm. When she saw Raeleigh looking at them, she said, “Come on, let’s go out. They need some rest.”

After Rossie said that, she turned around and went out of the ward. Zorion followed suit and took a seat right beside Rossie. She looked over at him and said, “When I see them, I’m afraid that something like that would happen to us. I don’t have the courage to do anything. Maybe, I will not be as lucky as them. Who knows? I might just die out there.”

“Nonsense!”

Zorion’s face darkened. “Don’t say that! This is retribution for those who don’t know how to cherish life.”

Rossie was puzzled. “Do you still like her?”

Zorion looked at Rossie. “Are you crazy? What’s wrong with you today?”

“Nothing.”

Rossie turned her face away and frowned. She was not jealous, in fact, she just asked casually.

To be frank, she had put this matter aside long ago. Besides, she did not exist at that time. So, she did not really care who he liked or didn’t like before she appeared in his life.

“Are you mad at me?”

Zorion became a little worried when Rossie did not speak. He took advantage of the fact that there were not many people around and hugged Rossie. Then, he lowered his head and kissed her affectionately.

Rossie did not know if it was because they had been together for too long, but she felt every day was the same. Everything became so routined. She felt that they were a little bit too comfortable with each other. It was as if they were like an old married couple.

After pulling apart, Rossie said, “Why don’t you ask Deanna to come out? Raeleigh needs to get some rest.”

Zorion stood up and knocked on the door. “Hey Deanna, why don’t you come out and let them get some rest?”

Deanna would never listen to Rossie’s instructions, but she would always listen to her brother’s.

Deanna looked at Raeleigh and said, “Take a good rest. I’ll be outside. Call me if you need anything.”

Raeleigh stared blankly at Deanna. She really did not need anything and she had a few people taking care of her already.

Jacky walked out the room and was followed by Stuart. Lucy stayed in the ward to take care of Raeleigh.

After everyone left, Raeleigh looked at Lucy and said, “Thank you.”

“No worries. The doctor said that everything has been taken care of. All you need to do is to get some rest.”

Lucy covered Raeleigh with a quilt. Raeleigh was indeed tired, so she closed her eyes and slept.

Raeleigh did not sleep well the entire night. She would wake up every so often because she felt uncomfortable.

Raeleigh then understood why Stuart allowed Lucy to stay in the room while he sat outside. He knew that her wound may itch and she would be tempted to scratch it. However, it was not that she wanted to scratch the wound, but it was really itchy and whenever she was about to reach out and scratch her wound, Lucy would stop her. Then, she bandaged Raeleigh’s hand with a special gauze. In this way, Raeleigh would not be tempted to scratch.

Lucy said, “Your wound isn’t serious, but you must not scratch it even if it’s itchy or it’ll leave a scar.”

Raeleigh understood. Jepherson did this for her own good, but Raeleigh could not help but scratch it because it was really itchy.

Raeleigh tried her best to get through the whole night without scratching and finally fell asleep as the sun began to rise.

Jepherson couldn’t hear the sounds of Raeleigh stirring in bed, so he opened his eyes and sat up on the bed. It seemed like his injuries were not as serious as Raeleigh’s after all.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

He got out of bed and decided to check on Raeleigh. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her sound asleep. So, he took advantage of this moment to go and talk to Jacky and the others who were sitting outside the ward.
