Chapter 1830 His Father, Santiago
Chapter 1830 His Father, Santiago
Today, Jacky was having a barbecue, similar to the day Raleiegh left.
Raeleigh helped out with the cooking while Jepherson watched over the children. Jacqueline could
basically get along with almost anyone and immediately engaged in a conversation with Jepherson.
Deanna was making some food while Raeleigh focused on roasting the skewers.
Jacky sat next to Raeleigh and asked, "Do you know that Santiago's coming home today?"
Raeleigh paused for a while and looked at Jacky for a long time before she said, "I had no idea."
"He called me and told me that he will be arriving at six in the evening. He sounded a little off."
Raeleigh took a quick glance at the time. It was already four o'clock.
"Why didn't he tell me?"
"I have no idea."
Jacky looked at Jepherson, who was playing with Jacqueline in the distance. "I just have a feeling that
something is about to happen. Could it be that Santiago is up to something?"
Raeleigh took a look at the red string on her wrist. She never took it off. It represented their
relationship.
"I mean, if he comes, it's fine. If he doesn't come, it seems that I can't leave either."
"You're still planning on leaving?" Jacky looked at Raeleigh and said, "Time really flies. Ten years have
passed in a flash. Do you still remember the time when we first met?"
Raeleigh looked at Jacky. He said, "We wouldn't have met if it weren't for Santiago."
Raeleigh placed the cooked skewers aside. "I'll go and pick them up."
"I think you should stay. They are probably already..."
Just as Jacky was speaking, a car pulled up in front of the house. Raeleigh recognised the car because
it was hers.
Raeleigh designed it herself. She was worried that something would happen to them in the wild as
Santiago frequently took the kids out for camping. So, she specially designed this car, which was fully
protected.
This time, Santiago brought four of the kids out for camping. They left earlier than she did.
Raeleigh immediately stood up when she saw the car. When the car pulled to a stop, Santiago opened
the door and got out of the car.
The children, too, got out of the car.
Jacky's sons, Cedric and Heitor, immediately got down from the car and ran towards Jacky. He was
also stunned for a moment when he realized how big and tall his sons were. They were already ten
years old and were about 1. 5m tall. Raeleigh realized that Jacky did have good genes.
Then, Shaney got off the car. For her age, she was much taller than her peers.
The last to come down was Francisen, who was five years old this year. He was wearing a pair of
sunglasses to shield his eyes. He was five-year-old, but he acted like a seven year old child and he
dressed very much like Santiago.
Francisen took a quick look at the surroundings. When he spotted Raeleigh, he walked towards her. He
raised his head and crooked his fingers at Raeleigh. Raeleigh lowered her head and he gave her a kiss
on the cheek.
"Babe, are you okay? We heard that you were sick, so we decided to change our plans and hurried
over from Paneroic Ocean."
Raeleigh was a little embarrassed and remained silent. "This boy..."
Shaney appeared behind Francisen and kicked him. "Hey, what's wrong with you?"
Francisen turned around and glared at Shaney. "What did you kick me for?"
"Francisen!"
Francisen was about to lose his temper when Santiago yelled. He immediately turned around and said,
"I know."
Suddenly, it was quiet. Jacqueline walked over to Francisen and looked up. "Why are you wearing
sunglasses? There's no sun."
Jacqueline raised her hand to take off Francisen's sunglasses, but he stopped her, "What do you think
you're doing?"
"I'm helping you to take off your sunglasses."
"Don't touch me. Go away."
"Dad..."
Jacqueline was upset and quickly walked towards Jacky. He picked up his daughter and looked at
Francisen. Then, he asked in a deep voice, "Kid, do you know the consequences if you upset my
daughter?"
Francisen raised an eyebrow. "You're Jacky?"
"What? Did your father talked about me?"
Francisen looked over at Santiago, who was approaching them. "My father? You mean him?"
"Yes."
Jacky coaxed his daughter, causing the corners of Francisen's mouth to twitch, "What bad luck. I'm
sorry, please forgive me!"
Francisen lowered his head and apologised. Raeleigh explained, "He's been cheeky ever since he was
a kid. His father spoiled him!"
"I can tell! He really did spoil him."
Jacky's kick landed on Francisen's back leg. The force he exerted wasn't heavy, but Francisen was still
quite young. Francisen merely stumbled a little and did not fall to his knees.
When Cedric and Heitor saw that Francisen was at a disadvantage, they immediately rushed over to
Francisen's side and tried to protect him.
But then again, they did not dare to go against their father.
Shaney could not take it. She looked up at Jacky and said, "Why did you kick my brother?"
Jacky said, "He bullied my daughter."
"Your daughter deserves it. She approached my brother first, now you're blaming him?"
"Didn't you kick him, too?"
"Yes, I did, because he's my brother. I have the right to do it, not you. Apologise now and swear... oh!"
Just as Shaney talked, Santiago walked behind her and slapped the back of her head. "Shut up!"
Shaney turned around and wanted to say something, but Santiago frowned. Shaney immediately
stopped talking and turned around to look at Raeleigh. Shaney reached out for her mother's hand.
Raeleigh lowered her head and Shaney gave her a kiss. "Mom, I missed you so much!"
"I missed you too, sweetheart."
Raeleigh hugged Shaney and gave her a kiss. Then, she released her daughter and looked over at
Cedric and Heitor. They each gave Raeleigh a big hug. Then, they kissed Raeleigh's cheek and
Raeleigh returned the kiss.
"We miss you."
"Me too."
It was quiet all around. Jepherson stood on one side, not knowing what to make of the situation. He
walked over to Francisen and knelt down to look at him. Then, he said, "Can you please take off your
sunglasses?"
Francisen looked at him and said, "You must be my uncle."
Jepherson's body trembled slightly. He could not believe that Santiago and Raeleigh had a child
together.
Francisen took off his sunglasses and Jepherson's face instantly turned pale.
Francisen turned to look at Santiago, who was standing behind him. "This is your uncle, Uncle
Jepherson," Santiago said.
"I know, I greeted him."
Francisen said. Santiago placed his hand on his son's head. He ruffled his son's hair and looked over
at Jacky and Deanna. "Hey guys, long time no see."
"Ah?" Deanna was dumbfounded. Jacky handed his daughter over to Santiago. "This is Uncle
Santiago."
Santiago did not seem to have changed much. He reached out to take Jacqueline from Jacky's hands.
He smiled and said, "You must be Jacqueline."

Jacqueline was a little shy. Santiago asked, "Jacqueline, what do you think of this boy?"
Santiago kicked his son, Francisen, softly in the bum. He was a little reluctant, but he did not dare to
make a sound.
There was only one person that Francisen was afraid of in this entire world and that person was his
father, Santiago.
