Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 1260

Raeleigh was pulled to the side by Jepherson. He checked to see if she was okay rather grumpily. He then let her hands go, looked at Scarlette, and said, "Be careful."

She stood next to Hadrian. He had just reached Scarlette anxiously, while Jepherson looked at him disdainfully. Hadrian just had to bear his gaze.

Even if his girlfriend did do something wrong, Hadrian didn't want other men to scold her, especially to her face. He also had to ask for leave for their trip back that time.

"Scarlette, you should go over there, for now. Be careful when you walk."

Hadrian took her to one side of the room. Although Scarlette didn't want to, she had no choice. What was more, Hadrian might not leave that time. There will be plenty of time in the future. Did she have to worry about that?

Scarlette moved to one side of the room, and Hadrian spoke directly to Jepherson. "Young Master Harvey, I'm here to ask a favor from you."

"Go ahead."

In front of people who were beneath his status, Jepherson always behaved coldly and didn't smile.

Hadrian said, "I want to withdraw Scarlette from the protection group."

"When did I say I was quitting?" Scarlette yelled. Jepherson raised his eyes and looked at her. She immediately lowered her head and didn't dare to speak another word.

Hadrian continued, "Scarlette and I have already registered our marriage. You've promised us this earlier this morning. I'm quite sure of it."

"In addition, when we are to be married. I hope that she doesn't get involved in the protection group anymore. I am a man, and I don't want her to be scolded by other men in front of me. I am the only one who can scold her."

Hearing Hadrian speak up for Scarlette, Raeleigh smiled. She then looked at Scarlette and said, "Congratulations."

Scarlette blushed. "We're having a shotgun wedding soon. You best believe I am going to marry him. I'm worried that my daughter will become an orphan."

"You're having a daughter?" Raeleigh was quite surprised. She moved closer to her. Scarlette replied, "I think so."

Raeleigh stopped talking because she thought it was useless.

Jepherson glanced at the table and looked at Xanthus. "I haven't eaten yet."

This implied that he was staying for dinner. Xanthus thought for a moment. "Then. stay."

He turned around, and Xanthus went to add more cutlery and plates. Jepherson went to wash his hands. Scarlette added, "I didn't eat either."

"Hadrian, go and wash your hands. Let's have dinner together."

"I'm not hungry. I'll stand here for a little while. When Jepherson comes back, we still have some things to discuss."

Hadrian couldn't sit still, and Scarlette ignored him. When he saw the four dishes and soup on the table, he was so hungry that he could eat a lion.

Scarlette turned around and went to the washroom to wash her hands. Jepherson washed his hands and quickly returned.

They all sat down, while Hadrian was still standing around. As the guest, Jepherson sat in Raeleigh's spot, which indicated that he was the host.

On the other hand, Raeleigh sat beside him. She wanted to sit a little further away from him, but Jepherson had pulled her close to him. Since there were so many people present, Raeleigh didn't resist. Since they had agreed to be a couple for the next three months, she couldn't go back on her word.

After sitting down, Hadrian said, "I want Scarlette to quit. If I have a son, then let my son take her place."

"Are you kidding me?" Scarlette asked.

Jepherson glanced at Raeleigh's bowl of soup. She knew that he was going to drink it, so she served him a bowl.

Jepherson glanced at Raeleigh, picked up the bowl, and took a sip. He felt that it wasn't rude to ask Raeleigh, "You made this?"

"No, I didn't."

Jepherson drank another mouthful and looked at the dishes. Raeleigh served some food to him. Jepherson picked up his cutleries, lowered his head, and asked, "What if it's a daughter?"

Xanthus came back and called for Raeleigh. "Raeleigh, please come down into my room."

Raeleigh stood up and went upstairs to Xanthus's room after responding to him. When she entered his room, Xanthus told Raeleigh, "You'll stay here tonight. Your room isn't big enough."

"True."

The truth was, everyone knew that they had enough rooms to accommodate a few more people.

Whatever Xanthus was planning, he was the only one who knew.

Raeleigh went upstairs and didn't come back out. Xanthus came downstairs while the door remained closed. Jepherson's face darkened. He stood up and stared at Xanthus.

"Are you going to stay here?" Xanthus said calmly while he stood on the stairs.

"I'll stay in Raeleigh's room. We used to live together." Jepherson didn't wait for permission and arranged things for himself. Raeleigh's knee was still hurt and he hadn't checked.

Xanthus frowned slightly. "Raeleigh will stay with me tonight. There aren't enough rooms. You can stay in Raeleigh's room. You three can stay wherever you like."

Xanthus went to the kitchen to prepare some fruits. He also brought out a large glass of milk and went back upstairs.

Neither Hadrian nor Scarlette knew what was going on. They watched as Jepherson's lover slept in someone else's room.

Of course, Scarlette knew that there was a reason for it, but she didn't know what had happened.

She looked at Jepherson uneasily. She wasn't sure if something terrible had happened.

"Stuart, you'll sleep downstairs. Hadrian and Scarlette will stay downstairs too. You can stay wherever you like." Jepherson then went upstairs and knocked on Xanthus's door. But, no one in the room responded.

Raeleigh was on the bed, reading a book. Xanthus put down the plate of fruits. No one could sleep as it was still the afternoon. However, it wasn't easy for Raeleigh and the others to leave right then. They could only wait for Jepherson to leave.
