Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 1713

Perhaps this was the state when the love could not be salvaged. It was even a burden to live, so live like the walking dead.

Jepherson asked, "Is my daughter pretty?"

Jolted back to his senses, Xanthus said in amusement, "You should ask the woman who will birth your child. You're asking the wrong person."

Jepherson was still dressed like Callis, but he had peeled off the synthetic skin and trimmed his hair.

The Jepherson at present looked no different from Callis. But once he restored his original appearance, everything was different, even the atmosphere.

Xanthus had no idea of what Jepherson was trying this time. If it was to get close to Raeleigh this time, then he would have been well prepared long ago.

If that was the case, then what in the world was he planning? To have Raeleigh back in his arms or something else?

How could someone plan so far ahead?

"How I wish to take a look at my daughter, even in my dreams."

Jepherson said lightly, interrupting Xanthus's thoughts.

"If you want to see your daughter, go back and ask a woman to birth you one. I can't do anything even if you tell me. Do you actually think Raeleigh gave you a daughter?"

Jepherson looked over at Xanthus; his gaze was unfathomable.

Xanthus did not care. He got up and headed inside while Jepherson said, "If I really find her by myself, maybe you will never see her again."

Xanthus stopped, standing in the dark, and turned to look at Jepherson. "Use your plans elsewhere. Since we Osteen can establish ourselves here, we won't be afraid of your threats. Even if the people coming at us are more powerful than you, I will still say so.

"You'd better leave; I don't want you to be here still when Raeleigh returns."

"If you continue to be stubborn, I will find a way to send Raeleigh away so that you can never see her."

"You dare?"

"Try me."

With that, Xanthus went inside. Jepherson got up and called Jared. "Gather our men. Find my child and Raeleigh, take them away!"

Xanthus stopped and turned to Jepherson. "If you managed to find her, you wouldn't threaten me and hide yourself for so long.

"I'm telling you, Jepherson, Raeleigh's no fool. She only didn't realize you're Callis because she's too nice and her thoughts aren't complicated like yours. She will find out, one day, that Jepherson and Callis are one and the same."

Jepherson's gaze downcasted as he fell deep in thought, then looked at Xanthus, exclaiming, "But I love her!"

Stumped, Xanthus scolded, "You're crazy!"

Hearing that, Xanthus strode back to his room. This was the most absurd love he had ever witnessed.

Raeleigh had repeatedly refused him, yet he still wouldn't give up, showing up again and again. How sinister.

...

Capital City.

In the nursing home courtyard.

Paige watched as Hudson sat next to her and drank his tea. She was brought here right after being discharged from the hospital.

Paige was on the verge of going mad.

"I don't understand why you don't choose to enjoy life but still obsess over our children even now. What on earth do you want?"

"I love you, and I loved you despite everything when we were young, just like how Calvin could even give up his life to love Belle."

"And Jerry too. He's not wrong to do whatever it takes to be with his beloved girl."

"It's not love when you can't give up your all, give up your life, to love."

"They're our children. Don't always ask so much from them. What's important is that they're healthy and have their own lives."

"You and I already have one foot in the grave; is it really necessary to torture yourself with all this?"

"There isn't a blood feud between you and Raeleigh, yet you see her as your mortal enemy and want to kill her. How can I turn a blind eye to that?"

"She's just a kid who did nothing. Yet you look as if you've lost your mind and want her dead just because Jerry loves her and wants to marry her. Do you think that sounds reasonable?"

Slightly lost in thought, Paige retorted, "Are you blaming me?"

Alas, Hudson thought he was talking to a brick wall; Paige didn't hear a word he said.

Her enmity against Raeleigh would only be resolved if one of them died; she was too hell-bent at this point.

"Everyone would grow a little living through life, but how did you end up like this?" With a broken heart, Hudson closed his eyes helplessly. "Forget it, since you won't wake up, then spend the rest of your life with me here. Our children are gone, and you've fallen out with Jerry. No one will care about us even if we go home."

"How I missed the days when Santiago was still on his legs. That fellow was really a sweet-talker. He still treats me well despite how you treated him. He'd get me books and clothes whenever he could."

"I haven't had new clothes for a long time; Santiago had always been the one to get them for me. It's been years since you last went shopping with me. You don't even know when I'm out of underwear. It's him too; he'd get me some whenever he bought for himself."

"But can no longer do so. I can only put on my old clothes."
