Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 1314

Blood rushed to Raeleigh's face the moment she touched him. With her arms wedging between them, Santiago still embraced her whole body with his. That said, she was a human being. How could she not feel anything?

Even though Santiago was only 17 years old, they were at the cusp of adulthood. Who could explain clearly what was going on? Would they be at the behest of their hormonal reactions?

Raeleigh remained motionless like a doll. Santiago tightened his embrace, a little bit at a time.

"Does it hurt?"

Finally, Santiago opened his mouth to ask her. But Raeleigh shook her head and said, "It doesn't hurt!"

Santiago fixed his dark pupils on her as he pursed his rosy lips into a smile. "Then, what do you feel?"

Raeleigh shook her head. "Nothing."

"Try letting go of your hand. If you don't hug me back, then how can it be considered a hug?" Santiago slowly released his arm and lowered his head to look at Raeleigh, his eyes a bottomless pit. Raeleigh steadied her breathing. "This is easily the worst experiment ever."

"Are you regretting this?" Santiago was still amused, but the sincerity in his eyes was nothing like he had shown before.

Raeleigh pursed her lips. "I'm a dirty woman, I think."

"Because you did my brother wrong?"

"Your brother and I, we're over. He has been constantly pestering me, but... me and you, nothing should have happened between us, yet we're still doing this ridiculous thing at night."

"Since you have already broken up, why can't you choose me? What are you afraid of?"

"This is incest."

Raeleigh's eyes were full of anger. Santiago did not provoke her. "Let go of your hand and let me hold you. There will be a response then. If you really don't feel a thing, then I will let go of you, and I'll find someone else."

Raeleigh refused and wanted to leave. Santiago pressed Raeleigh's hand on his body and held her in his arms, hard. He rested his chin on her shoulder. His chest heaved with his breath.

Raeleigh stood there gritting her teeth. She breathed heavily and opened her mouth slightly. Otherwise, she would die.

She didn't know what she was doing. Had she lost her mind?

But Santiago kept saying, "Give me a hug, hmm?"

As if possessed by a demon, Raeleigh put her hand on Santiago's body and slowly wrapped it around his waist, holding him until he was tight.

This hug lasted for a few minutes, but it felt like a few centuries.

Raeleigh finally let go of Santiago and shoved him away. She raised her head and looked at him. "Are you convinced now?"

Santiago looked down at Raeleigh. "Didn't you feel anything?"

Raeleigh nodded. "Not a thing."

"Dang! Talk about a heartless woman. We're this close to taking off our clothes."

Raeleigh blushed, wishing she could just die.

But in the next moment, Santiago let go of Raeleigh. He turned around, walked back to the bed, and lay down under the quilt.

"Rest well, yeah? Forget it if you don't feel anything."

Raeleigh froze there. "That's it?"

"Or do you want to try something else?" Santiago arched one of his eyebrows. Raeleigh was stunned, as if she were struck by lightning. She immediately shook her head. Santiago tugged the corner of his mouth and smiled. "If so, take a rest, shall we? It's four hours before dawn. Your bandage is to be removed tomorrow."

Santiago closed his eyes and his breathing gradually grew even. Raeleigh stood still for a while and breathed a sigh of relief. Her palms were sweaty. She was scared to death.

Xanthus sat on the empty bed on one side. "I didn't dare to leave because I was examining Stuart. Fortunately, his condition was very stable. I will take a rest, don't wake me up for breakfast."

Xanthus had tried his best. He lay down without taking off his doctor's coat. Raeleigh stood up and covered Xanthus with the quilt. Seeing him like this, it was not difficult for Raeleigh to imagine that Stuart's condition was not too optimistic.

"Let's eat."

Santiago slowly stood up and went to wash up. He went out to get something to eat. That day, it was Santiago and Raeleigh who ate together. Calvin and Belle went to Stuart's side.

After eating, Santiago stretched his body and said, "I'm gonna visit Stuart. Are you coming?"

Of course Raeleigh wanted to go, but she was still wrapped in gauze.

"How can I go like this?"

Santiago thought about it. "Then, what do you want?"

"You should go. I will stay with my brother. When he wakes up, he will take off the bandage for me."

Raeleigh did not want to leave right then, as she didn't want to leave Xanthus alone.

Santiago decided to cancel his plan. "Let's wait then."

"If you want to visit him, then you can go first."

"I'm not going."

Santiago went back to lie down, remaining there. Raeleigh didn't continue to persuade him to leave. The two of them waited in the room.

In the afternoon, Xanthus woke up and took off the gauze from Raeleigh's head. He replaced the bandages and prepared a hat for Raeleigh. She put on the hat and changed into a cotton shirt. Accompanied by Xanthus, Raeleigh followed them to see Stuart.
