Getting My Ex-wife Back

Five years later.

In a coastal city.

There were countless reporters waiting for Raeleigh outside of the airport. As soon as she walked out of the airport, the people around her began to take pictures, while some people were screaming at her.

Raeleigh wore a pair of black sunglasses to cover her face. Her lips were red. She smiled at the people around her and greeted them politely. Her long curly hair was tied up in a loose ponytail. She was immediately surrounded by people as soon as she walked out of the airport.

Soon, a man emerged and quickly shielded Raeleigh from the people. Raeleigh politely apologised and hurried away.

Raeleigh used a special passage way to exit the airport. As she walked, she briefly took a look at her watch and realised that she was running late!

The more she rushed, the higher the chances that things would go wrong. Just as she turned the corner to the special passageway, she walked into a person. Raeleigh had no time to avoid and quickly fell down.

“Ouch!”

Raeleigh took a breath. “My foot!”

The assistant hurried over to see Raeleigh. The person who had just knocked into Raeleigh stopped and looked down at her. If she did not speak, Jepherson would definitely not have recognised her.

The assistant said, “Mr. Richards…”

Jepherson did not say anything but just knelt on the ground, looking at Raeleigh’s face. Raeleigh slowly raised her head, but Jepherson was quicker.

Jepherson reached out to take off the sunglasses on Raeleigh’s face and looked at her carefully. He was lost in thought.

Raeleigh was about to get up but Jepherson picked her up in his arms.

“Cancel all my meetings for the recent month.”

Jepherson walked out with Raeleigh in his arms. Raeleigh’s assistant immediately followed, but Jepherson’s assistant quickly stopped her and handed over the luggage to her.

Raeleigh intended to pretend that she did not know Jepherson. However, when Raeleigh saw the cold look on Jepherson’s face, her heart trembled a little.

What was Jepherson doing here? This place was hundreds of thousands of miles away from Capital City and she had just returned.

Raeleigh had a new project here. She dared not venture into the car business because Jepherson was a car mogul. So, she decided to venture into fashion design instead. She would accept orders online and then manufacture them. She had been running her business for several years and now, she had several companies all around the world. This country was her last stop.

Originally, Raeleigh did not want to come. However, several companies invited her, so she had to find a developing city like this one. Raeleigh had no idea who leaked the news that she was coming.

Raeleigh also had no idea how those reporters ended up in this coastal city.

As soon as they emerged, a group of reporters began to take photos and Jepherson’s assistant immediately stopped them. However, Jepherson asked him to move away. He stood there and allowed the people to take photos of him and Raeleigh.

Raeleigh tried to avoid being photographed and did her best not to show her face to the people.

Then, Jepherson’s assistant opened the car door. Jepherson got in the car with Raeleigh in his arms.

The driver briefly looked at them before starting the car and driving towards the hospital as per Jepherson’s orders.

Once they arrived, Jepherson got out of the car and walked into the hospital with Raeleigh in his arms. Raeleigh was in a huge amount of pain. Small beads of sweat formed on her forehead.

Jepherson was quite displeased with her.

“How old are you now? Why are you still so careless?”

Raeleigh was in no mood to argue as she was in a lot of pain.

Jepherson carried Raeleigh to the treatment room. When they entered, Jepherson did not let go of her and held her while the doctor gave her an examination. “Looks like she sprained her ankle. She will need to stay off her feet for one week.”

Jepherson raised his eyebrows. At that moment, he looked extremely handsome. Raeleigh stared at him and said, “Thank you.”

“Is that all?” Jepherson was expressionless, his eyes deep and bottomless.

Raeleigh thought for a while and said, “Can you please get me my phone?”

“What’s your last name, Miss?”

Raeleigh froze. Did Jepherson lose his memory?

“Osteen.”

“What’s your first name?”

“…”

Raeleigh did not answer and just stared at Jepherson. She knew he must have done it on purpose.

Raeleigh remained silent for a long time. Jepherson waited as the doctor wrap her sprained ankle. Then, he walked out of the room with Raeleigh in his arms. Raeleigh said to Jepherson, “Can you please take me to my hotel. I’ll be…”

“You look like someone I know.”

Raeleigh took a deep breath.

Jepherson lifted her body and looked at Raeleigh carefully. “But I haven’t seen her in a long time. I almost forgot what she looks like.”

“Can you please put me down?”

“The doctor said that you have to stay off your feet.”

Raeleigh was carried into the car. Soon, the car pulled up at Raeleigh’s hotel. Jepherson then carried Raeleigh into the hotel and up to the room. Jepherson’s assistant brought his luggage to the room and closed the door. Raeleigh wanted to leave, but she couldn’t, so she just stared at Jepherson.

“Give me my phone.”

“I have no idea where your phone is. Miss Osteen, are you afraid of me?”

Raeleigh did not answer. Jepherson locked the door and took off his clothes. Then, he took his pyjamas and went into the bathroom to take shower. Raeleigh wanted to leave, but she couldn’t walk.

As the time passed, Raeleigh became more and more nervous. She clenched her fists tightly.

Crack!

Jepherson opened the door and emerged from the bathroom. Raeleigh was frightened as she looked towards the bathroom door.

Jepherson came out of the bathroom wearing purple pajamas. Closing the door, he sat on the bed. Raeleigh quickly moved to one side.

“Don’t joke around like that.”

“The person who lied to me most in my life is you. I wonder who you are with now? Austin or Santiago?”

Raeleigh pursed her lips. “Jepherson, you’re ruthless. Don’t go too far.”

“Like you don’t? You’ve deceived me over and over again and even took my daughter away.”

“I… erm…”

Just as Raeleigh opened her mouth, Jepherson suddenly kissed her. Raeleigh hurriedly avoided his kiss, but Jepherson wrapped his hands around Raeleigh’s body tightly…

“Ummm…”

When Raeleigh was struggling, she accidentally kicked her own foot. She was in great pain and shed tears. Jepherson suddenly pulled away and cursed in a low voice, “D*mn it!”

Raeleigh froze and wondered since when did Jepherson learn to curse?

Jepherson immediately got up and checked Raeleigh’s feet. He would not be relieved until he made sure that there was nothing wrong.

Raeleigh frowned as she looked at him. Then, Jepherson asked, “What are you looking at? Do I look old?”

Raeleigh did not answer. Jepherson was 32 years old this year.

He was not old. He was just mature.

Before Raeleigh could speak, Jepherson lowered his head and kissed Raeleigh’s lips. “What perfume are you using? It’s strong.”

Raeleigh turned her face away. Jepherson took Raeleigh’s hand and kissed her. “Where do you think you can go this time?”

Raeleigh wanted to pull away, but Jepherson kissed her lips and sucked hard. Raeleigh suddenly felt a pain. It was as if she had been bitten.

Raeleigh could not seem to push him away, so she had to surrender to him.

Raeleigh slowly woke up the next morning. Jepherson slept beside her with his arms around her waist. Raeleigh recalled the painful feeling when Jepherson kissed her last night.

They both knew that things hadn’t changed at all these years, but…

Raeleigh’s hand moved. Jepherson tightened his arm. “You’re up early. Does your feet still hurt?”

Raeleigh turned around and looked at Jepherson. “How did you find me?”

“It’s not that hard to find you.”All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Not many people know that I’ll be coming.”

“So what?”

Raeleigh turned away. “Yes, so what?” She thought.
