Go After My Ex-wife

Chapter 1696 Better Late than Never

"You dare?" Paige glared at them, which Rossie returned with a cold, contemptuous look. "I'm not

afraid of people like you. Go ahead and tear it off, tear it all away and see for yourself whether you're

still pretty after that!"

Paige seemed to have gone mad as she ordered someone to beat her up. Rossie goaded, "I don't think

you have the guts to."

Paige stamped her foot angrily. "Throw her out for me!"

"Come on then!"

Rossie wasn't a pushover. Even though Raeleigh's hand was hurt as well, she still use it to pull Rossie

away, "Forget it."

"No, who is she to call you a vixen? I still say she's an old hag!"

Paige was so spitting mad that she couldn't care less about her image.

"Get her... Ah..."

Before she could finish, Rossie marched up to her and gave her a push. Paige lost her balance and fell

down. Reese immediately stooped down to support her. Seeing that no one else took action, Rossie

went up and tore apart Paige's clothes, which was a body wrap dress and a headscarf that was done

up in such a complicated style that it held up for half a day. Rossie messed everything up, even her

hair, and made her look like an insane lunatic.

Raeleigh pulled her off of her as Rossie finally pant from all her efforts after running about for half a

day.

She stood above Paige and declared, "You dirty old hag, how dare you bully others? You're tired of

living, aren't you? Just jump down from this building and smash your head in then. You came here just

to court death. Do you think Raeleigh is a mistress and you're here to strip off her face?"

Raeleigh pulled on Rossie a little more insistently, "Let's go."

Rossie snorted and kicked Paige's calf. After she's done, she pivoted on her toes and was now the one

to pull Raeleigh along. "Come, let's go to the hospital."

Just as they decided on this, Rossie turned back and pointed at Paige. "You just wait and see."

Paige's face had already turned pale. She looked as if she'd been slapped in the face with a fish!

The people in the surrounding area were also a little scared when they saw Rossie. What kind of place

was this to have a mother tiger come running?

As soon as Raeleigh stepped out of the door, she heard Paige yell out, "Chase, chase after them and

bring them back!"

Rossie had been walking at a fast pace, but when she heard the yells, she slowed down instead. It was

as if she was waiting for Paige's men to chase after them and bring them back.

Raeleigh endured the pain. At this point, she didn't care about the time. By the time they reached

downstairs, Paige's people had caught up to them. Rossie paused then and gave them all a look of

warning, "Tell Paige, the dirty old hag, that I am Zorion Atkinson's wife."

The moment Zorion's name was mentioned, the people of the Harvey family dared not make a move.

With Rossie's identity revealed, they moved to the sides of the door and let them pass.

Once out of the vicinity, Rossie became a little anxious. She immediately looked at Raeleigh and

asked, "How is it?"

Raeleigh shook her head, "Send me to Waverly Village. Jacky's hospital belongs to my brother. They

are all my brother's students and had already arrived from the start. The bones might be broken."

What she said was already an understatement. She predicted that her bones might have shattered.

When Paige's foot suddenly went up, she heard the sound of it being shattered at that time.

Rossie immediately took Raeleigh to the village. The car sped down the road. Although they're a

distance away, some police cars came and helped them give way which saved them some time.

Raeleigh didn't feel anything when she was in the hotel, but now on the road her hands began to feel

painful.

Raeleigh sweat heavily as she leaned to the side, and even speaking was difficult.

Rossie called Zorion.

"I'm in trouble. I'm going to hide in Waverly Village. Raeleigh got injured. You can do as you see fit."

Zorion glanced at his phone, got up, and rushed out of his home towards the village.

...

By the time Raeleigh arrived at the village, she was already unconscious. Jacky and Deanna were both

there. They had prepared the necessary arrangements in advance. Once they arrived, Jacky carried

Raeleigh out of the car and headed straight for the hospital.

The rest of them followed in their wake. Raeleigh went through the operation. Rossie was so worried,

she followed her in whereas Deanna and Jacky waited outside.

At the same time, Paige also entered the hospital in a fit of rage.

It was said that excessive anger was bad for one's health. Paige had suffered a huge impact this time,

and was so furious that she landed herself in the emergency room.

Jepherson left Stuart to accompany his grandmother and took Lucy to Waverly Village. But when they

got there, their entry was barred and they couldn't get in.

Raeleigh was pushed out of the emergency room just as Jepherson arrived. But she didn't request

Jacky to let him in.

She could already talk when Jepherson was stopped at the entrance as her hand no longer hurts.

Raeleigh looked at the doctor, "Break it to me honestly."

Raeleigh had seen all the doctors before. The orthopedics department was led by Xanthus. Later, when

they came to Waverly Village, only Jacky knew about this. But Raeleigh knew all of the people inside

the department.

The doctors looked crestfallen. "The bones have been shattered. We tried our best to repair it, but it is Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

impossible to completely heal them. It will take about five years of therapy and recovery, plus the

neurons have also been damaged. This part was due to a mistake on our part during surgery. We can't

be as precise as our mentor.

Moreover...

The hand cannot simply be used before they fully recover. If it was used, that is equivalent to a wasted

operation. It could also be seen from the back of the hand that it had once been fractured.

We had already lowered the possibility of leaving behind a scar, but it will still be different than it

originally was.

But five years later, you should be able to recover."

Raeleigh fixed her gaze on the doctors. "Five years?"

"Yes, five years is the lowest limit. If this hand is used within five years, it will be deformed."

Raeleigh raised her left hand to have a look. She absolutely didn't expect that something like this could

happen.

Five years to her was humanity's most glorious moment of their life. If she really lost these five years, it

meant that she lost half of the world.

Although she drew pictures with her right hand, it was impossible to draw with her right hand alone.

There were still times that her left hand was needed.

Raeleigh stared at her cast for a while then said, "You can all go home. Let's call it a day."

"Then we..."

"Don't tell my brother, I'll tell him. Another thing, no one present can tell anyone about this. If someone

asks about me, you tell them that I got abrasions on my hand and I need to have cosmetic surgery. In

order not to get the wounds infected, I will be in the intensive care unit ward."

As Raeleigh spoke, Deanna all of a sudden hunched down to the ground and broke out crying.

Everyone turned in Deanna's direction as she cried out through her tears, "Raeleigh, go. This place will

eat you up!"

Raeleigh also wanted to leave, but she couldn't!

"You can leave now. Do as she says."

Jacky ordered someone down and helped carry Deanna to bed. Raeleigh didn't cry even when she

was ill, which made Deanna very self-conscious. She curled up in bed and took deep inhalations to

stop her sobs.

Rossie also couldn't help but cry, but not to Deanna's extent. The two of them had completely different

personalities.

"Take care of yourself. Five years may be a long time for you, but you can do so much more in that

time span. Maybe there are other ways too."

Jacky patted Raeleigh's shoulder and said, "This time if it weren't for you both, I'm afraid I wouldn't be

able to get out."

"It's good that you're fine more than anything." Jacky looked at Rossie as he spoke. "It's all thanks to

you this time. I didn't expect you to be nearby."

"I was worried about Raeleigh too, still I was too late."

"Better late than never."
