Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 1150

"I know that you have your own views, but Raeleigh is a person. You can't be rude to her," Xanthus said after Raeleigh went into the kitchen to fetch some soup. Santiago, who sat opposite him, took a bite of his food and refuted, "That's my problem. Mind your own business."

"I won't care about you, but there's no way for me not to care about her." Xanthus' face was filled with displeasure. Santiago shot him a glance and said, "You can care about her all you want."

Santiago did not give in to Xanthus at all, and Xanthus was so pissed that he stopped eating, but when Raeleigh returned to the table, he hurriedly picked up his cutlery and continued eating as if nothing had happened.

Raeleigh placed the bowl of soup in front of Xanthus and Santiago. Xanthus drank a mouthful of soup before putting it down. The two men pretended that nothing had happened, but Raeleigh sensed the tension in the room.

Raeleigh sat down and began to eat. During that period of time, she did not speak. Xanthus and Santiago remained silent as well. After dinner, Raeleigh told Xanthus that it was time for her and Santiago to take their leave. Xanthus quickly offered to drive them back home.

Scarlette had been waiting for Raeleigh outside the house. She was relieved when she saw Raeleigh in Xanthus' car.

Scarlette immediately ran over to Raeleigh as soon as she stepped out of the car. She wanted to know why Raeleigh came back so late.

"Dr. Osteen needed some help over at his house. I happened to be of use, so I followed him home. After that, he invited us to stay for dinner."

Raeleigh briefly explained and glanced at Xanthus. Santiago, on the other hand, had already entered the house. Scarlette tilted her head and pondered. Was Santiago one who would randomly enter anyone's house?

It was so strange.

"Thank you for sending us back." Raeleigh thanked Xanthus. He smiled and said, "I have to go now. Scarlette, it looks like your legs have recovered well. Why don't you swing over to my place tomorrow when you have the time? I'll give you a quick examination."

After saying that, Xanthus entered his car and drove off. Raeleigh watched Xanthus leave and breathed a sigh of relief. She was glad to know that she was not Jepherson's sister. If she was, then she really did not know what to do.

"What time did you reach home?" Raeleigh asked Scarlette as they made their way back into the house. Scarlette informed her that she had arrived home at noon. As soon as they entered the house, Raeleigh ran to her grandmother, hurriedly telling Novalie that Xanthus was her brother. Novalie knew that Raeleigh was glad to have found her family member when she saw the wide smile on her granddaughter's face.

"Raeleigh, that's great! Promise me from now on that you'll smile more. You've been acting like a grumpy old lady." Novalie advised Raeleigh, "Or else, you're going to scare Jepherson away."

"I wasn't grumpy. What are you talking about, Grandma?" Raeleigh said coyly. Novalie chuckled and patted her bed. "You can bunk with me tonight. Is Jepherson not home yet?"

"Grandma..."

"I get it. You can still bunk with me when he comes home, right?" Novalie was amused. If Jepherson was home, then Raeleigh probably would not be there with her. They were practically inseparable. How was it possible that she would even want to bunk with her own grandmother?

Raeleigh went to take a shower before returning to her grandmother's room. When she entered, Novalie was already lying on the bed. So, she went and lay beside her grandmother. Just then, Novalie said, "I haven't seen Jepherson recently. Did something happen? Have you managed to find Deanna?"

"Not yet." Raeleigh turned over and hugged her grandmother. "I don't know what happened to him either. He didn't tell me."

"If he didn't tell you, then it doesn't mean you can't ask him, right? You can't expect him to tell you everything. It doesn't work like that."

"I'll call and ask tomorrow." Raeleigh was about to fall asleep when Novalie said, "You'll never make your call since you're saying this. He might have returned by tomorrow. Why can't you call him now?"

"Fine, I'll call him now." Raeleigh got out of bed and went to make a call to Jepherson as she was told.

In fact, Raeleigh was planning to call him even if Novalie did not mention it. However, she had intended to call him after her grandmother fell asleep. She did not expect that her grandmother would urge her to call him at once.
