Getting My Ex-wife Back

Raeleigh had no idea where she was. She was locked up under Geraldine’s order. She did not have the strength to fight back, therefore it was impossible for her to resist.

However, Raeleigh did not expect that Crevor would be locked up as well.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

When Crevor was locked up, he did not resist at all. He just protected Raeleigh.

They were immediately taken to the car. After travelling for two hours, they were then escorted out of the car.

The place where they were locked up looked like a dungeon.

Raeleigh stood by the small window and looked outside. The night sky was lit up with bright stars.

Raeleigh turned around and looked at Crevor who was sitting on the ground. The floor was not damp but dry.

Raeleigh asked Crevor, “Where are we?”

“We’re in the dungeon located in the backyard of the villa.”

Crevor said casually. Raeleigh asked, “You have a dungeon in your house?”

“It’s not surprising. This dungeon has been here for a long time. When I was very young, I was locked up here in the dungeon, but it was not as clean and tidy as it is now. There used to be rats running around. When I had to stay overnight here, I could hear the sound of rats grinding their teeth.”

“So, you’re used to living in the dungeon?”

“Aside from the rats, the meals are delivered on time. I don’t have to worry about going hungry. On the other hand, if I’m in the outside world, I would have to constantly worry about being framed and hurt. Hence, I don’t think it’s a bad thing living in the dungeon.”

Crevor took out a lighter from his pocket. Raeleigh looked at him strangely, “You smoke?”

Crevor smiled and said, “Why don’t you sit down? Won’t your legs get tired?”

Raeleigh did not feel that the ground was dirty, so she walked over and sat beside him.

It was only then that Crevor replied, “I don’t smoke, but ever since young, I’ve been afraid of darkness. Then, one day, while I was locked up in here, a thought came across my mind. A lighter can last for four days, but not a flashlight.”

“Ever since then, I started carrying a lighter wherever I go.”

Raeleigh did not say anything. She looked towards the window. Everyone had their own path to take and not everyone’s path would be smooth.

A few hours later, Raeleigh felt tired, so she leaned against the wall to rest.

When Raeleigh heard footsteps approaching, she opened her eyes slowly.

It was Sussie.

Sussie had obviously been crying because her eyes were swollen and red.

As soon as Sussie appeared, she first glanced at Raeleigh, and then at Crevor, who was sitting on the ground.

“Crevor…”

Crevor raised his head to look at Sussie. “Sussie, I have no feelings for you. Do you really want to have this kind of marriage?

If we get married, I won’t be home every day and would spend my time at other places. Do you think you will be happy?”

“It’s all because of her. If it weren’t for her, you wouldn’t have treated me like this. You’ve always treated me very well.”

Sussie said in a low voice. She was heartbroken.

Crevor shook his head. “Sussie, you should understand. I’ve always treated you like my little sister. The reason why I’m so nice to you is because you’re the youngest in my family. I’ve never forgotten the time when I was young and I didn’t have food to eat, it was you who brought me food.”

“No, I don’t believe you. I know you have feelings for me.”

“No, I don’t! You…”

Raeleigh sat on one side as she listened to their conversation. She felt that it was really ridiculous.

Raeleigh gradually lost interest in their conversation, so she leaned against the wall and closed her eyes to take a nap.

After talking for a while, Sussie thought about making Raeleigh leave, but Crevor did not allow it.  Sussie was so angry that she started crying.

Raeleigh opened her eyes not too long later because she couldn’t sleep.

“Sussie, please listen to me. Why don’t you go back first?”

Sussie stood and cried for a long time before she finally left. It was only then Raeleigh could finally get some rest.

Crevor even joked, “After experiencing so many things, only you can still remain calm.”

Raeleigh wore a smile, “You are not the first one to rack your brains to try and fool me.”

Crevor paused for a moment. “How do you know that I racked my brains? Why can’t it be that I’m revealing my true feelings?”

“If you had openly defeated Jepherson, then I might consider you as a man, but I look down on people like you. You are no different from Flynt.”

She found it ridiculous that he had done all these just to hurt Jepherson’s feelings.

Crevor shook his head helplessly. “You still don’t understand me.”

Raeleigh remained silent. She did not care whether she understood him or not. That was his problem.

Raeleigh stayed in the dungeon for two days without eating or drinking anything. Crevor stood up and shouted, “Is anybody there?”

A person quickly came over. Crevor then asked, “Can you bring us some food?”

The person did not go against his order. It wasn’t long before he came back with some food. Crevor then woke Raeleigh up and handed the food to her. However, Raeleigh said, “Even if I have to starve to death, I will not eat any food from the Doyle family. Stella was the one who injured Santiago. I will remember it for the rest of my life.”

Crevor was stunned. “Wait, you’re saying that Stella caused Santiago’s accident?”

“Yes, she did.”

“Then, who killed Stella?”

Raeleigh frowned confusedly. “You don’t know?”

“It’s not Jepherson?”

Raeleigh did not answer. At the thought of Jacky, it did not matter if he misunderstood Jepherson.

“You came back to deal with Jepherson?”

“You can say that. Stella is the only person I can talk to in the Doyle family. Now that she’s dead, I’m not going to stand by and do nothing!”

“But I was the one who killed Stella.”

Raeleigh said to Crevor as if she was talking to herself.

“How is that possible? I doubt you have the ability to do it.”

“You shouldn’t underestimate any woman. When a woman is filled with vengeance, they can do anything! I always feel that I have the ability to kill anyone, including you!”

Raeleigh said calmly. She looked at Crevor coldly. Crevor looked at Raeleigh and said, “I doubt it was you.”

“Aren’t you curious to know why of all people in your family, Stella had to be the one to die?

Has your family done any good deeds all these years?

You want to seek revenge just because one of your family members is dead. What about those people you’ve killed? If they were to seek revenge, won’t they have to annihilate your entire family?

“Raeleigh, how can you be so murderous?”

Crevor slowly knelt down and carefully observed Raeleigh.

“I will not do anything unless I’ve been provoked. When I’ve been provoked, I’ll definitely seek revenge.”

Raeleigh could tolerate a lot of things, but the one thing she could not tolerate was letting others hurt her.

Just like what Jacky had said, Santiago was his friend and she was his confidante. Logan was his brother. In any case, Stella did not deserve to live.

The only way to solve this was an eye for an eye.

Furthermore, this was not their fault. Some people had brought this upon themselves.

Raeleigh would not do anything to these people, nor would she let them hurt her friends in return.
