Of the Maia Martin stories I have ever read, perhaps the most impressive one is Go After My Ex-wife. The story is too good, leaving me with many doubts. Currently, the manga has been translated to Chapter 1565 Send Her Away. Let's read the author's Go After My Ex-wife Maia Martin story right here.
It was as if Raeleigh had been through a nightmare. She was extremely calm and unruffled after killing Lechen, telling herself repeatedly she had just killed a beast.
After cleaning the scene up, Raeleigh dressed Lechen and washed the blood off him. All the correctional officers wore a hat; Lechen came over wearing one as well. Raeleigh capped the hat onto Lechen's head and opened the door to gaze outside. Several correctional officers were patrolling the hallway above; the prison cells below had all their doors shut. Sneaking out of the cell, Raeleigh pulled Lechen out, brought him to a chair, and sat him there before wiping the floor with a wet towel. The blood on the ground soon disappeared, and the floor began drying up.
Raeleigh looked at those watching her from above; none of them said anything. Perhaps they were oppressed and had had enough of Lechen.
Raeleigh finished cleaning and glanced at those looking at her from within the cell. Then she returned to her room and closed the door behind her, cleaning the place and even washing the towel.
Finally, Raeleigh double-checked to make sure there were no traces of what had happened. She wrapped Lechen's key with a towel and left it on the table next to him.
Raeleigh raised her head and looked at those around her watching her as if she were a lunatic.
Then, she walked back with a steady pace, holding the towel in her hand.
At some point, Lechen's body fell to the ground with a thud. The officers patrolling upstairs dashed down only to find Lechen dead while Raeleigh was resting in her cell.
...
The whole tragedy had ended, and Raeleigh was asleep when Austin returned.
The cell was spotless, and everything had been washed.
Austin sat down, and Raeleigh got up from the bed. When she saw Austin sitting in front of her, she hugged him and cried, "I killed someone!"
Austin held Raeleigh in his arms. "Haven't you planned to kill him long ago?"
Raeleigh did not answer. That was right. He had been watching from the side every time she sharpened her toothbrush with tiles. He was the one who told her there was only one item that could kill and be turned into a weapon.
Although he didn't say it explicitly, that was what he meant.
Raeleigh had been on guard against Lechen for a long time.
"Everyone will keep their mouths shut, but the superiors will definitely investigate this matter. Don't leave this place for now. I need to find out who will take over the management before I can make sure you're safe."
It would b best if it's one of the officers here."
Raeleigh left his embrace, lifting her head to look at him, and asked, "And if not?"
"Then I'll send you away. Make sure you can leave safely."
Austin pinched Raeleigh's cheek and said, "It seems that we're going to separate soon, kiddo."
She didn't know why but she didn't like the idea, even reluctant to leave.
"Will you be fine if I leave?"
"I don't know, but you have to leave. They can't do anything to me." Austin stood up and went to the door to eavesdrop on the situation outside. He glanced at her before saying, "Don't come out for now; I'll check on the situation."
"Alright."
With that, Austin went out, and Raeleigh immediately hid in the bathroom.
For the next few days, Austin would stay outside until nightfall and bring some food back for Raeleigh; she would only feel at ease at nighttime.
A few days later, Austin woke her up in the middle of the night. "It's time to go, kiddo."
Austin cupped Raeleigh's cheek, held the back of her head with the other, and kissed her on the lips. Raeleigh was rendered dumbfounded, but Austin had already backed away.
"Let's go." Turning around, Austin walked forward, Raeleigh following close behind.
When they arrived at the door, the heavy iron door opened, and Raeleigh stood behind it but did not get out at once. She looked at Austin and promised once more, "Austin, I will come back; you must wait for me. If I can't find you here, I will search every prison. It's a promise."
Amused, Austin said, "Don't tell me you're addicted to washing my feet, kiddo?"
The rim of Raeleigh's eyes turned red. She took a look outside and replied, "I have to go, Austin. Wait for me."
Austin pushed Raeleigh out the door. "This is a sh*t-hole. I'm not as kind as you think. Don't come back after you leave."
Raeleigh turned around and looked at Austin. "I will come back. Wait for me. When you're out, ask for me at the Harvey Group. I'm Jepherson Harvey's wife. If I'm not there, find me at Waverly Village. My brother's Xanthus. Ask for him. He's a doctor.
"If you really can't find me, put out search notices. You will definitely be able to find me."
Raeleigh said a lot. Austin stood on the spot before urging, "Go."
He then closed the iron door. Standing outside, Raeleigh banged on the iron door, yelling, "Austin, no matter what, don't forget."
Austin waited until the noise died before he turned around. Outside, Raeleigh had already run toward a bright light in the dark night.
She did not look back. Following Austin's instructions, she only made the call half a mile away from the prison.
Raeleigh walked for more than half an hour before she pulled the phone out and dialed a number. She had been thinking about who she should call.
In the end, she made the call.
