Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 821

August had just ended and it was time for students to start school again. Inside the wealthy homes of Capital City, everyone was making preparations for their children who were about to return to school.

At Capital City, in the Ink Garden of the Harvey Group.

There was a comfortable couch and a spacious living room. It was just like Harvey Manor in A City, down to its art and furniture.

Paige was used to living in A City. Capital City was livelier than the A City but once a person came to a certain age, they preferred a quieter and more peaceful environment.

Despite that, her grandchildren were in Capital City, so Paige had no choice but to come live here.

That time, she was invited by Belle. The Ink Garden was specially cleaned up for her stay. Meanwhile, Belle and Calvin lived in Fragrance Garden. They were close by.

Paige was satisfied with her life, especially seeing her grandson who was about to graduate from school and was already the vice president of the company.

"Jerry, are you going to school later? Have you seen Zorion and Deanna?" Paige asked as she watched the television with a jade fan in her hand. She looked elegant and graceful.

The Ink Garden had a more refreshing environment compared to any other part of the house. Although August had passed and the weather was still hot, Ink Garden had undergone a renovation and it was a great place to escape to in the summer. Otherwise, her grandchildren wouldn't be here.

At that time, Jepherson was reading a book on a big couch. He was wearing his usual black pants and white shirt. He looked calm and graceful. Jepherson was only 23 years old and he had inherited his father's good looks and intelligence. He was probably even more outstanding than his father in the past.

Hearing Paige's question, Jepherson looked up and replied, "I haven't seen them yet. Zorion and Deanna are going to college this year. Their training before school has ended and they are officially entering as students tomorrow."

Paige leaned forward. "Jerry, do you think Deanna is nice?" Paige could not help admiring Rhys as she thought about what an obedient girl she was.

Rhys had been doing well himself and his two children were obedient and brought up well.

Deanna was the only preferred choice as Paige's granddaughter-in-law.

"She's great. How couldn't she be?" He looked up at Paige. "What are you trying to say, Grandma?"

"What do you think Grandma is trying to say? You'll be 23 years old once you graduate and you're about to take over the company. What do you think?" Paige had been reminding the family about it but Belle and Calvin said that it was all up to Jerry and they didn't want to meddle in it.

He didn't have to get married, but he could get engaged first.

Jepherson turned his face away and lowered his head to continue looking at the book in his hand. "Deanna is still young and I've always treated her like a younger sister."

"She's not your actual sister and you two are not related by blood. You've taken good care of her since she was young and she has said that she liked you. If you two were to get together, don't you think it will only bring our families closer?" Paige said. She thought that it was important for two individuals to have similar family backgrounds to get married.

Jepherson thought about it. His thin and handsome face was as calm as water. "Thirty is when one's life is truly stable. I won't be thinking about marriage until then. Grandma, I don't think you should force me about it anymore."

Jepherson stood up and rushed towards the exit as he instructed, "Stuart, let's go to school."

Jepherson left in a rush and Paige was left upset. He was so opinionated at such a young age, just like his father!

"No, I have to think of a way." Paige thought.

In Elkton University of Capital City.

The grand Elkton University was one of the famous buildings in Capital City. The Harvey family, who owned Elkton University, was also one of the well-known powerful families in Capital City.

Twenty years ago, the Harvey family built Elkton University, and then it had become one of the top schools for wealthy students from all over the world to attend. The students who attended this school were from all kinds of wealthy family backgrounds. The school also accepted students who were geniuses in various subjects.

During that time, the freshman ball was in preparation.

Jepherson's car stopped at the entrance of Elkton University and Stuart went out of the car to open the door for him. The school board were all there to welcome him, including the principal of the university.

"Young Master Harvey, this is an invitation that Madam Lilian asked me to hand to you." The principal was more than 60 years old but he still bent over to speak to Jepherson out of respect.

Jepherson got out of the car and grabbed the invitation handed to him. He then started walking into the university. He looked down at the invitation and realized it was for the freshman ball.

He casually handed the invitation to Stuart and said, "You can go."

"Young Master Harvey, Madam Lilian's intention is to introduce Miss Deanna to everyone tonight and you must attend the ball, or Madam Lilian is going to call Madam Belle about it," the principal said with his body and head bowed.

Jepherson turned around, looked at him, and understood what he meant. Then, Jepherson turned around and grabbed the invitation from Stuart's hand.

Inside the back room of the hall of the freshman ball.

"Do you see this? This is your scholarship application form. If I were to tear this apart, then don't even think about applying for a scholarship anymore. So, are you done considering it? Are you going to do it or not?" A few girls surrounded Raeleigh inside the room as one of them held her scholarship application form to threaten her. They wanted to humiliate her by making her send an inappropriate love letter to someone. Raeleigh refused to do so and she was cornered by them.

"Are you sure you guys want to do this? This is a society of rules and laws and we are in a university!" Raeleigh was one of the candidates who were chosen to come to Elkton University based on her outstanding results in car designing. She had the highest score in all of Capital City and she even got first place in an international drawing competition. She did not have a powerful family background and she wasn't the daughter of a wealthy corporation. She got into this school solely based on her talents. The spoiled, wealthy girls in front of her could never compare to her.

Raeleigh looked at them with a cold gaze. Her eyebrows tightened and she knew she shouldn't go against them because it would only make her situation worse.

However, she was also unwilling to give in. Her mind and body were fully against it.

"The law? I am the law here! Raeleigh, we were hoping that you would get along with us but it seems like you're not willing to and there's nothing I can do about it. I'm going to tear your scholarship application form into pieces now, and you better not regret it." Quirina raised her hand and was about to tear the form apart. Although Quirina was a new student in Elkton University but since she had a powerful background, she was known for being bossy and it was never a good thing to be her victim.

"Wait!" Raeleigh finally gave in after she thought about the eyes of her hopeful grandmother. It was not easy for her to get into Elkton University. All she wanted was to graduate smoothly and not be involved in any drama.

"I'll go." Raeleigh gave in at last. The girl who was holding Raeleigh down threw a love letter to her, along with a black velvet box.

Raeleigh glanced at the box and asked, "What's inside?"

Unfortunately, she quickly backed away when she saw Quirina trying to get her way in. It was obvious that Quirina could get her way most of the time in school.

The reason Quirina could get her way was because she was from the Cole family. Everyone in Capital City knew who the Cole family was and Brooklyn Cole was a well-known figure too.

He was then over a hundred years old but still energetic as always. He was one of the main seniors of Capital City.

Brooklyn Cole was the grandfather of Jepherson's mother. Everyone in Capital City was aware of the relationship between these two families. Furthermore, Elkton University was owned by the Harvey family, so didn't that mean that half of it belonged to the Cole family?

Quirina was from the Cole family and she was well-respected in school. Everyone thought it was normal for her to be bossy.

The students who were pulled away by Quirina, moved out of the way, and gradually everyone in front moved out of her way too.

"It's your turn," Quirina said to Raeleigh as she pointed at the empty pathway in front of her. Raeleigh was helpless and she could only walk forward with the love letter and a little velvet box in her hand.

"Do you see that guy with his back facing you? That is him. He is the one in the black shirt. Hand the box to him, open it up, and read the contents out loud. If I don't hear your voice clearly, then it doesn't count. Then, open up the item and hand it into his hands. If you fail to do any of this, then look at this," Quirina said as she waved Raeleigh's scholarship application form in her hand. "It will be the end of you." She added.

Raeleigh looked at Quirina and said, "I hope that you can keep to your word and return it to me."

Letting out a subtle sigh, Raeleigh walked towards the man whose back was facing her, as everyone looked. She didn't know what Quirina and the other's intentions were and she didn't know what she was about to get herself into but it all didn't matter to her. The only thing she cared about was to complete her studies at Elkton University.

At that moment, Quirina and the other girls were waiting to watch a good show.

A long-haired girl said to Quirina, "You're savage. Who doesn't know that Young Master Harvey hates girls making the first move? I heard that the girls who made a move on him always end up in complete humiliation."

"Tomorrow, the whole school will know that Raeleigh, who is good in everything, is blinded by love too. It feels satisfying just thinking about it." Quirina sneered as she played with her hair.

Raeleigh walked towards Jepherson step by step.

Stuart noticed that someone was approaching them and Jepherson noticed it too. Then, Jepherson turned around to see who it was.

At that moment, Jepherson was stunned.

Raeleigh was wearing a white dress, which was specially prepared for her by her grandmother. She initially intended to wear it that day for the freshman ball but she didn't expect it to be for this purpose.

She had her hair down and she was wearing a pair of pink sandals. It was the most luxurious pair of shoes she had.

She was petite and she had a delicate face. Her dull gaze didn't look around at the crowd surrounding her and she didn't look up at the person in front of her either. All she wanted was to finish her task and get back her scholarship application form.

As for this senior named Jepherson Harvey, he had nothing to do with her.

She paused. Then, without looking up at the person in front of her, she opened up the love letter gradually with a stiff movement. She cleared her throat and said loudly in front of everyone, "Please accept my confession."
