Never in a million years did Stella ever thought she'd be asked to leave by Jepherson. So, she sat there for a long time and did not respond. Jepherson immediately asked the servants to pack up Stella's belongings. Stella did not protest. After all, she had no rights within the Richards family. Soon, she was escorted out of the manor by the servants. Before Stella left, she took one look at the Richards Group Manor with a mocking smile. She could not believe that Jepherson had done that. "Come on, let's go." Since Jepherson asked her to leave, then she was going to leave, but she was not going to let this one slide. Stella glanced at the person pushing her. Suddenly he bent down and carried her into the car before closing the door. Stella soon left with her men. In the car, she asked her servant, "Any idea what Santiago has been up to recently?" "No, I have no idea." "Well, forget it." Stella narrowed her eyes and said indifferently
Raeleigh said, "I don't care. It's up to you." "You have guts! Fine, then I will tell you the good news first." Stella hesitated for a moment and said, "You seem to get along well with both Jepherson and Santiago. I bet it'd be hard for you to choose between both of them. Since that's the case, then I'll make the choice for you." Raeleigh tightened her hands around her phone. "What have you done to Santiago?" "What can I do?" Stella asked Raeleigh calmly. Irritation pricked at Raeleigh and she knew Stella did it on purpose. So she tried her best to keep her cool. "Fine. What's the bad news?" Raeleigh did not want to engage in a pointless argument with her. "The bad news is that I accidentally hit him on the head. Now, he's lying unconscious on the ground with blood spilling out of his head. Oh, the good thing is that he's not going to die. Is this still considered bad news?" Raeleigh pressed her lips together then bit out. "Where is he?"
The doctor swept a quick glance at the people surrounding him. He looked at Raeleigh and said, "We did everything we could. Although he's still alive right now, he's never going to wake up. He's already..." The next moment, Raeleigh blacked out before she could finish hearing what the doctor had to say. Everyone including the doctors was frightened. Xanthus immediately pulled her out of the crowd of people. Everyone were speechless with fear. Raeleigh woke up and found herself in a hospital ward. She looked at her mother and asked, "Where's Santiago?" Jazelle wiped her tears and walked over to Raeleigh, "He's in his own ward. His family is with him. Your health is more important. You need to take care of yourself first." Raeleigh looked at Jazelle, "Mom, I am fine." Although Raeleigh said she was fine, she could not hide the fact that she had fainted again. Deep down, she knew that her body was weak. "If you say you're fine, then why did
Raeleigh fell silent and stared indifferently at Jepherson. Then she took one last look at Santiago before turning around and leaving. She told herself that she would never go back into the arms of a man like Jepherson. She used to wear her heart on her sleeves but she now had a heart of stone. All she wanted was to live a peaceful and normal life. She did not expect it would be so difficult. She vowed to avenge Santiago. She would never let Stella go. Raeleigh emerged from Santiago's ward and paused for a moment. Then she briefly looked up at Rossie, who was already walking towards her. "Raeleigh, we're also devastated, but you're pregnant. You have to take care of yourself." "I know." Raeleigh then glanced over at Jacky before leaving. Jacky watched as Raeleigh walked away. Jacky would never forget the look on her face. Her eyes was filled with coldness. It was completely different from the Raeleigh he knew. Raeleigh returne
After Raeleigh hung up the phone, she stood up and headed straight to Santiago's ward. Xanthus immediately stood up and followed her. On the way, he said, "You have to stop running around, otherwise the people around us can't protect us at all." Raeleigh walked in front. She was dressed casually as she was pregnant. Not many people knew it yet, but if Stella knew, she could not imagine what would happen. Fortunately, the weather these days allowed her to dress like this. Raeleigh wore a loose-fitting black outfit that wouldn t hamper the baby s development. Xanthus felt that it was suitable as well. For the past two days, Raeleigh had rolled up her sleeves. That way, others would not be able to tell that something was off about her. Raeleigh's short hair not only highlighted her natural beauty, but also made her look a little unruly. Raeleigh shoved her hands in her pockets and spoke as she walked, "I'm afraid that she won't come. If she comes, I can gua
Hansen gritted his teeth as he stared at Santiago who was lying in a vegetative state. "Alvin..." "Yes, Mr. Richards?" "I want you to relay a message to the people. Tell them to protect Raeleigh at all cost. Offer her any help should she ever need it." Hansen looked up at Alvin, who was stunned for a moment. Then Alvin turned to look at Jepherson, who was sitting up in the hospital bed. Alvin was shocked when he heard Hansen's words. Jepherson looked over at his father. He had a determined look on his face. He could tell that his father wanted revenge. He knew his father would not let this matter slide. Jepherson stared at his father for a while. He knew that everyone in the family was devastated by what happened to Santiago. Therefore, his father would rather entrust the matter of revenge to Raeleigh than him. Jepherson did not say much. The damage this time was too great for him to accept, let alone his parents. His mother had yet to come to
When Hannah heard that her daughter may potentially need a cesarean section, she was a little worried. She knew it would be painful and the recovery process was significantly longer than natural birth. Although everyone would like to have a painless delivery, Hannah knew that going under the knife meant a different kind of pain. Hannah shook her head and said, "I would prefer for her to have a natural birth. Having a cesarean section would be the last resort. I had to endure such long labor when I gave birth to Deanna and Zorion. I've also heard of some people who gave birth to perfectly healthy babies after enduring difficult labor. However, I've never heard of any babies having brain damage due to oxygen starvation. Those who have were born with it." Hannah looked at her husband and asked, "Rayan, what do you think?" "But the doctor said that there would be risks." Rossie answered truthfully. Hannah looked at Rossie and said, "Rossie, I hope you understa
The moment Raeleigh woke up, she could hear Deanna screaming. It sounded like she was in a lot of pain this time. Raeleigh hurried into the room and saw Deanna crying in pain. Hannah s heart felt hurt when she saw her daughter in so much pain. The most annoying thing was that none of Jacky's family was there in the hospital. Since Jacky wasn't there, they couldn't do anything either. Hannah was close to asking Deanna to have the surgery but she bit her tongue. Everyone could not wait for Deanna to finally go into active labor. In the end, they waited for an entire day but Deanna was still not ready to give birth yet. The doctor continuously monitored the dilation of her cervix. That night, when the doctor came out of the ward, a look of panic crossed her face. She froze when she saw Rayan. When Rayan saw the look on the doctor's face, he demanded, "What's wrong?" The doctor said in a trembling voice, "It can't be! I must be dreaming!"
