Go After My Ex-wife

Chapter 1706 Keep Away From Me



Chapter 1706 Keep Away From Me

The sky had already grown dark as Austin turned and went down the watchtower, escorted by the

people behind him back into the prison.

...

When Jepherson arrived at the hotel's entrance, he opened his eyes and got out of the car. He then

looked at Stuart and said, "Today is your wedding day. I will attend the ceremony and leave later that

afternoon. You have to take care of things here the day after your marriage."

"Understood, Mr. Jepherson."

"Good."

Jepherson turned to head in while Stuart made preparations for his big day.

Raeleigh disembarked from the plane. No sooner had she walked out the airplane's door, she caught

sight of Jared who had stood in wait at the airport. Raeleigh paused then scanned the surrounding

area. Jared was dressed in black outfit over a light-colored shirt. The moment he saw Raeleigh, he took

his hands out of his pockets and strode over towards her.

Then when he was in front of her, he bent down and took the luggage from her hand.

"Why are you here? Weren't you on your way back?" Raeleigh asked in surprise.

"I was ordered to stick close to you and protect you. I don't know anything else so stop asking. Let's

go."

Jared turned around with Raeleigh's purse in his hand, hence she had no choice but to follow.

After they left the airport, Raeleigh sat in Jared's car as he drove her to the manor.

"I will give Jepherson a call. You can go back now, I'm good here."

On the way, Raeleigh tried to persuade Jared to leave. Jared only spared her a look and said, "That's

your business. It goes without saying that I will leave once you and Jepherson talked things out.

There's no need to ask me then."

Raeleigh was dumbstruck. She lowered her head down to her hand. Jared asked when he saw the

focus of her gaze, "You were injured?"

"It's none of your business."

Since their talk had turned sour, it was better not to say anything further.

Jared laughed. "Is this how you are as a woman? No wonder you're injured."

Raeleigh remained silent. She had nothing more to say to such a person.

When they arrived at their desNorahtion, Raeleigh got out of the car and walked up to the front door.

Xanthus, who was just about to head out, was surprised to see her and stepped out.

"Raeleigh..."

"Brother."

Raeleigh had not notified him of her return as she was afraid that she would be met with mishap on her

way back. Therefore, she had planned to return this way but she still couldn't avoid this twist of fate.

For example, Jared.

"Why didn't you call me when you came back?" Xanthus berated her as he came out. Raeleigh cast a

glance in Jared's direction, and it was only then Xanthus noticed his presence.

But something wasn't right with the gaze he fixed on Jared and he did not say anything for a long while.

When Raeleigh went into the manor, Jared's way was impeded by Xanthus. Raeleigh turned back after

a few steps and watched the mini war going on behind her.

"Give me the luggage." Xanthus said with obvious belligerence towards Jared .

"I am not here to see Cynthia. I am here to protect Raeleigh. Don't think I am..."

Xanthus did not wait for the rest of his words to snap his hand out and make a grab for her luggage.

Raeleigh understood somewhat of what was going on and walked back towards Jared. With a turn of

her body, she asked, "Don't tell me that you are saying all this to make things embarrassing for my

brother?"

Raeleigh was not a fool. She knew clearly what Jared had tried to imply with his words to indicate what

happened between him and Cynthia.

Raeleigh's dainty face went taut. No one was allowed to harass her family.

Jared made to explain, "Cynthia liked me of her own volition, not..."

Raeleigh turned away before he could finish. She walked a few steps forward only to turn back again

and pulled Xanthus along with her, "Let's go back."

Xanthus pulled her to a stop.

Raeleigh looked back at him who, contrary to what she expected, said, "Even when I had lost in love, it

was not because I lost to someone else, but myself.

If I had truly loved her, I should have given her a chance to choose.

I just dislike this person in front of me. He still took away the woman that should have belonged to me

after all."

Raeleigh felt a little distressed, but she respected Xanthus' decision. "My brother is so cool, even so

gallant." This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

Xanthus then looked down and saw Raeleigh's injured hand. "What happened?"

"Let's go inside and we'll talk."

Raeleigh flicked a look at Jared. She marched up to him and took back her luggage. "Don't worry. I'm

safe here at home. If you really want to protect me, you can protect me from here. Don't come in, lest I

get upset when I see you."

After Raeleigh had said her piece, she wheeled round with her luggage and passed it over to Xanthus.

They entered the manor together, then a group of people swarmed out from inside and with a shut of

the metal door, barricading Jared outside.

Raeleigh was injured. Xanthus immediately put away his displeasure stirred up by Jared's presence

and interrogated Raeleigh for details on what had happened to her hand.

Raeleigh didn't withhold anything but truthfully told Xanthus everything. After all, Xanthus was an

expert in this field. It would be good for her if she told him the truth.

"Raeleigh, you are too careless. I will do an examination for you now."

After he had heard the whole story from her, Xanthus put on the coat he had just taken off earlier and

brought Raeleigh out of the manor without even the chance to pay respects to Novalie.

With Raeleigh inside the car, Xanthus had no room to think of anything else. Even if he encountered

Jared on his way out, he would ignore him like so much air.

Xanthus took Raeleigh to the hospital and immediately gathered the staff to do a CT scan for her.

After he got her X-Rhys, Xanthus's face turned grim. More than a dozen people were present as

Xanthus's eyes were fixed on the image interface.

Although they spoke to each other in a foreign language, Raeleigh still knew what they had said. It was

just that even though the operation was successful, it couldn't return her to her original condition. In

terms of the bone recovery process, Raeleigh's current predicament wasn't optimistic.

"Let's do it again." Xanthus's proposal shocked everyone.

Raeleigh sat aside and stared at Xanthus. Then she took a look at her hand. No one could understand

her anxiety at that moment.

If she could not use her hand for three years, it meant that she had to give up her design career.

If she had to go through another operation, she might be faced with agonising pain much more severe

than before. At that moment, she couldn't decide what she wanted more.

But at Xanthus's determined look, Raeleigh could say nothing in objection.

"If we redo the operation, not only does the patient have to bear with a lot of pain, we also need to

make sufficient preparations before the operation can be conducted."

"It doesn't matter. I'll be the main surgeon. I'll call Jack from the Orthopedic department. I'll also ask

someone else to do the cosmetic surgery. I'm sorry to trouble you all at this time with this. Please do

your best. My sister is a designer. She told me that my students had told her that she can't use left

hand for three years. We all know that this kind of fracture is too serious and has a detrimental impact

on patients. But I hope that I can save her hand. After three years, she can use it flexibly instead of

struggling through that long span of time with a lifetime of waiting in front of her."

Xanthus bowed deeply towards them and straightened up to look back at his fellow doctors.

Raeleigh sat to the side as all this was going on and swallowed the hard lump in her throat.

If it was possible, it would be much better to keep away from each other for the rest of her life than to

be met with one mishap after another, making her brother worried about her.
