Getting My Ex-wife Back

Raeleigh stood at the door for a while and called Jacky, but he said, “You should go and get some rest.”

Raeleigh froze for a moment before hanging up the phone. Then, she turned around and walked up to the attic. However, the attic was extremely cold due to the wind blowing outside.

Raeleigh woke up the next morning and went downstairs. The ground outside was completely covered with a thin layer of snow and it was still snowing. It was also awfully quiet but she felt that there was nothing wrong. Looking ahead, she could see nothing but endless snow covered ground.

She stood by the door and stared outside for a while. She spotted Deanna and Jacky not far away. They were currently shoveling snow from the pavements.

“You should head back inside. It’s cold out here.”

There wasn’t anyone around Jacky. Perhaps he did not need to work because it was the holidays. He was dressed in black from head to toe. He wore an overcoat that was usually worn by the government officials.

But his pants were different. He had on a pair of warm winter pants.

His entire outfit was paired with a pair of warm winter boots, which looked very heavy.

He had a shovel in his hand as he talked to Deanna.

Deanna was also holding a shovel as she slowly followed behind.

“No, I don’t want to go home. I want to help you.”

“Why don’t you go and make some food?”

“I’ll do it later.”

Deanna spoke unhurriedly, but she kept shovelling the snow. Raeleigh stood in the distance and watched the couple. Regardless of how they ended up together, no one would expect that Deanna would be the happiest person on earth.

In fact, all a woman wanted was to find the right man. Outsiders wouldn’t know how good a wife Deanna was, but that did not matter. What mattered most was whether Jacky knew how to cherish her or not!

There were some things that could not be used to describe the desolateness of life.

There were lovers in the world. As long as they were able to get along with each other, then nothing else mattered.

Raeleigh watched as the snow gently fall from the sky. In fact, she had found the perfect man, but it was too late!ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

If it weren’t for Jepherson and Stella, Santiago would still be alive. Who knew? Maybe he would also help her shovel snow just like Deanna and Jacky.

Raeleigh stood for a while and felt cold. She turned around and was about to go back. Deanna then called out to Jacky, “Raeleigh is up! Who’s going to shovel her snow?”

“I’ll do it. Why don’t you head back inside and make some food?”

Earlier, when Jacky asked Deanna to go back inside the first time, she refused to listen, but now, she turned around and headed back inside.

Raeleigh stood for a while. She wanted to head back, but couldn’t. So, she walked over to Jacky.

Jacky bent over and did his best to shovel as much snow off the pavements. Raeleigh stood on one side and watched him work. He said while shovelling the snow, “Jepherson came by last night.”

Raeleigh looked at Jacky without saying anything. Jacky continued, “He went to see Jared.”

Raeleigh remained silent. After Jacky finished, he walked to Raeleigh’s side. At this moment, then he said, “It’s been a year. You haven’t seen him for a year. I need to head out to run some errands and you so happened to have some free time now. Would you like to come along?”

Raeleigh did not hesitate. “Yes.”

After saying that, Raeleigh turned around and head back into her house.

Jacky bent over and continued to shovel snow in the direction of Raeleigh’s house. Raeleigh returned to the attic and sat down. She stayed up there and did not come down after a long time.

After having lunch, Raeleigh followed Jacky out. As soon as Harvey dropped them off at the airport, he immediately made his way back to Waverly Village.

There was someone to take care of Jared, but there also had to be someone to keep an eye on Deanna while Jacky was away.

When Harvey arrived back at Waverly Village, Deanna happened to be walking out of the village, carrying a backpack. As soon as he saw her, he immediately walked over and asked, “Deanna, where are you going?”

“I want to go home. I can’t stay here without Jacky. Can you please look after the house for me while I’m away?”

“I’ll drive you home.”

“Alright, it’ll be boring being alone anyways. You can talk to me on the way. Harvey, did Jacky leave with Raeleigh?”

Deanna was too tired last night. This morning, when Jacky got up, she had already gotten up too. Then, she followed him out to the streets to shovel the snow. After that, she did the laundry and cleaned the room. She even made lunch for everyone and had to clean up after them. Deanna was spent. She barely had the energy to walk.

Deanna planned to return home and have a good rest.

However, there was something that Deanna wanted to clarify first. She wanted to know who Jacky had left with.

Jacky left while she was busy washing the dishes. When she came out of the kitchen, all she saw was a note on the table. He wrote that he had an urgent matter to take care of and that he would be gone for a few days.

She did not care where he went or what he needed to do. What was more important was who he had left with.

Harvey got into the car and drove towards the house. He told Deanna, “Yes, he left with Raeleigh.”

“Is there a secret between them that no one knows?”

Deanna leaned to one side and remained indifferent. Harvey carefully observed Deanna and made sure that she was fine before saying, “I have no idea. Deanna, did you notice something?”

Deanna said, “They left together and Jacky did not tell me what he had to do. This means it’s a secret.”

“Maybe.”

Harvey also smiled. Deanna yawned and said, “I’m going to take a nap. Wake me up when we get there.”

“Alright.”

It wasn’t long before Deanna fell asleep. Harvey then drove her back to her family home.

…

At the nursing home.

Jepherson sat in the room and looked around. There was a pot of tea on the table. Trevor was currently enjoying his cup of tea. Jepherson looked at it and asked, “Is it appropriate for you to do this?”

“It’s not appropriate for you to do it, but you did it anyway.”

Trevor was hinting at something. Jepherson said, “Grandma has done something terrible Raeleigh. As her husband, I should stand up for her. I cannot just stand by and watch Raeleigh get hurt time and time again, can I? I cannot ignore it.”

Trevor raised his brows and glanced at Jepherson. “You came here to tell me this?”

“Not exactly.”

“Then say it. After that, you can leave before your grandma wakes up. If she sees you, she’s going to start nagging you.”

“Then I’ll leave.”

Jepherson stood up and turned to walk toward the door. Trevor shouted at him, “You’re such a jerk!”

Jepherson stopped and turned around to look at Trevor. “Yes, I am!”

“Hmph, did the Doyle family send someone to make trouble for Raeleigh?”

Although he did not go out, it was not as if Trevor did not know about it.

“Yes, it’s Crevor.”

Trevor was surprised. “Crevor may be capable and smart, but the Doyle family brought up a person with no backing, I have a feeling they have other motives.”

“You’re talking nonsense! Isn’t that obvious?”

Jepherson said. Trevor’s face darkened. “Get lost.”

Jepherson did not hesitate. He turned around and walked out, but when he reached the door, he was stopped by Trevor. “Wait! Stay right there!”
