Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 1163

Getting out of the car, Santiago surveyed his surroundings. He lit a cigarette and took a puff of it while Hadrian stood aside and beheld the surrounding area of this place, Waverly Village. Initially, he had wanted to bring Scarlette along, but Santiago did not agree to bring a woman with them. Therefore, they had left her behind.

Hadrian was wearing a set of leather clothes. Santiago stood in front, smoking. Stuart was standing behind them in casual attire. The three of them got out of the car and were looking around.

"What did the news say?" Santiago asked as he leaned against the car and took a drag of his cigarette. Stuart answered, "It's been said that Zorion took Rossie away from the Jack Town Hotel and never showed up here again."

"Even Zorion himself doesn't care, so why should we bother?" Santiago took another puff before he put out the cigarette by dropping it onto the ground and squashing it. Although he said that they shouldn't let this issue concern them, he still walked towards the Jack Town Hotel.

After entering, he glanced around before he found a seat and sat down. Following that, he blended in with the customers by ordering some food and starting to tuck into his meal.

While he was eating, someone came and sat across from him. Santiago lifted his head to look at the person, who was quite good-looking. Only then did Santiago stop eating and raked his eyes over his surroundings. Finding nothing amiss, he directed his gaze to the person across from him. "What can I do for you?"

"Outsiders are not welcomed here. You should leave after this meal. The bill is on me."

Listening to his words, Santiago took a piece of tissue paper and wiped his mouth. He leaned against the chair and asked, "Have I offended you in any way?"

"No, but you shouldn't have come here. I have heard about you. Your name is Santiago, and you are very famous in Capital City. However, this place is no Capital City. It's Waverly Village, a place ruled by Mr. Jacky. You shouldn't have set foot in here."

"I'm here for a meal, what's so wrong about this? You're doing business, aren't you?" Santiago asked, to which Logan smiled. "Oh, we are doing business, alright. Except for yours. This meal is on me. The end of your meal will see you walking out from here."

Getting up, Logan left, and Santiago continued to have his meal. Then, he stood up. "Investigate what's the grudge between Zorion and him."

"This person is called Logan. Before we came here, Mr. Jepherson had already asked someone to look into his background. The woman Zorion took away is called Rossie Lautner. I heard that it was Logan who looked after her when she was here. She was taken away forcefully, and a fight had broken out due to that."

Stuart reported to Santiago while they left Jack Town Hotel. Santiago turned to stare at Stuart. "Why didn't you tell me before we came here?"

"Before we came, I didn't expect to cross paths with him so soon," Stuart replied. Santiago gave him a push. "I'll settle the score with you after we go back."

After a few steps, something came to Santiago's mind, and he turned to stare at Stuart. "Did Zorion win the fight?"

"He did," Stuart answered quickly. If he hadn't won, then how could he have taken Rossie away? Stuart had heard that there were more than a dozen people in the other camp.

Santiago turned around and chewed over this affair as he walked. He observed the people around him and returned to the car to take a nap at the back. Stuart got into the front passenger seat whereas Hadrian was behind the wheel.

"Mr. Santiago, what are we going to do next?"

"Contact the informer and ask him to come and meet me. Leave here first, and let's not waste Logan's courtesy of having treated me to a meal," Santiago said as he began to take a nap.

Hadrian drove them out of Waverly Village. Stuart made a call to the informer in the village while Santiago was waiting in the car. It didn't take long for someone to come out of the village. It was an old man in plain, regular clothes. At most, only 'clean' would suffice to describe his style.

He walked to the side of the car, and Stuart got out of the car and opened the door for him. Afterwards, the man got into it.

Stuart checked around and made sure that no one was spying on them before he got into the car. They left.

"Hi, Mr. Santiago," the man greeted Santiago. Santiago sized him up. "You're one of our own. Drop the formalities."

While talking, Santiago took out a cigarette and offered it to the old man. The old man rejected initially, but Santiago insisted, and he obeyed Santiago at last. "Just take this, it will save you the trouble."
