On the other side, Santiago put his phone away and looked at Raeleigh. "He should be fine. He's at Harvey Manor."
"So, he's fine because he's there?" Raeleigh looked at Santiago. She was slightly relieved when she heard his words.
"What can happen to him? My grandfather treats him like a treasure. He should be fine. If you're worried, then I can bring you there to check on him." Santiago spoke as if he was telling the truth. Raeleigh immediately shook her head and said, "There's no need for that."
Raeleigh turned around and sat down. She guessed that he probably needed some space. Therefore, she decided not to look for him. If he needed her, then he would come back on his own. Besides, she did not dare go to Harvey Manor as there were too many people around. Regardless of what identity she used, it was still better to stay at home.
Raeleigh sat down and fell silent. Santiago, too, took a seat. He remained silent as he waited for Raeleigh to say something. However, she did not say anything. Although she was a little sad, she did not blame Jepherson.
He probably had an unsolvable problem, and a person like Jepherson would definitely want to deal with it on his own. earlier, he went to find his sister. He was probably frustrated that he still could not find her.
He had put in so much effort, yet he still could not find her. If it were her, then she would have been frustrated as well. She knew that once he got over it, he would come home.
Raeleigh felt as if she and Jepherson were slowly drifting apart. It was as if he was beyond her reach.
Both of them were the kind of people who loved to keep their problems to themselves. That was their greatest flaw.
Raeleigh said nothing after sitting there for the entire day. The next day, Raeleigh was woken up by a call from Xanthus, asking her to go out. Raeleigh hesitated for a moment. Scarlette did not need any more injections and recovered at a speedy pace. Not only that, she and Hadrian would spend the entire day locked up in the room, arguing. Occasionally, sounds of objects breaking could be heard. It seemed that Scarlette had recovered faster than expected.
Every day, Hadrian would cook a lot of nutritious food for Scarlette. That was the first time that Raeleigh realized that Hadrian cared so much about Scarlette.
"I have a class to attend later. I will not be heading into the office for a few days." Since Jepherson had not been going to the office, Raeleigh felt that it was unsuitable for her to head over as well. A couple of days ago, she had been absent-minded because, at that time, she wasn't sure whether she was Jepherson's sister. Thankfully, Jepherson had already informed Lamarre, so she was slightly relieved.
She still had not completed the first trimester of her pregnancy . She did not have a baby bump yet, so she could still attend class.
"Alright then, let's meet up at the university." Once they agreed to it, Raeleigh hung up the phone.
With that, Raeleigh made her way down to Scarlette's room and knocked on the door. After a long time, Hadrian finally emerged from the room wearing a black shirt that exposed his chest. He said to Raeleigh, "What's the matter?"
"I'm looking for Scarlette. I'm planning to head over to the university, and I want to check whether she'd like to come with me. That way, Dr. Osteen might be able to examine her wound."
Raeleigh took a look inside and realized that Scarlette was dressed and ready to go. However, she still seemed somewhat unpleasant and was unwilling to forgive Hadrian. It seemed like Hadrian was playing hardball and was very controlling of her. Scarlette did not even have the right to speak up for herself.
If Jepherson was around, then he might have been able to help Scarlette. Unfortunately, he wasn't, and Scarlette was left to defend herself. At that moment, she was at Hadrian's mercy and was controlled by him.
"I'm fine now. I'm coming with you." Scarlette immediately exited the room when she saw Raeleigh. Hadrian looked at her and said, "You're not fully recovered yet."
"So what? It has nothing to do with you. I'm warning you. You'd better take away your belongings, or else..."
