Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 896

Scarlette thought for a moment, then asked, "You'll honor your bet?"

"I never go back on my words. If you don't believe me, just ask Zorion. Every time we bet, I always keep my promise. Zorion, you can testify to that for me." Deanna looked at Zorion, who nodded and said, "Yes."

Raeleigh eyed Deanna. To Deanna, perhaps Jepherson was not the most important person. It was Zorion. If she had to make a choice, Deanna would definitely choose Zorion.

"Let's do it." Scarlette doubted that she would lose.

Raeleigh did not say anything. She turned her attention to Scarlette's hand. Deanna walked towards Scarlette without a care in the world. She put her little hand behind her and then declared, "Let's get ready first. I'll count to three and then we'll show our hand. If you lose, you take the phone. If I lose, I will return it."

"I don't trust you to count. Raeleigh should be the one to do it." Scarlette glanced at Raeleigh.

Raeleigh looked around. "Aren't you guys not embarrassed at all for doing this in front of such a big crowd?"

"Not at all." Deanna could not care less about appearances when she was abroad.

"You count, Raeleigh," Scarlette urged. Raeleigh gave another glace around them. "All right, you guys get ready."

Raeleigh was not hopeful at all. Deanna's countenance told Raeleigh how confident she was.

"One, two, three." Raeleigh counted steadily. Her unhurried manner made Scarlette feel that she should have let Deanna count. There was no purpose to playing like that.

As a result, Scarlette lost.

"I won. The phone is yours." Deanna took the phone and handed it to Scarlette. Scarlette was a prideful person, so she took it.

She would honor their bet too!

"Raeleigh, it's your turn!" Deanna turned to Raeleigh. Raeleigh stood there for a while, then gave in. She told Deanna, "It's okay. It's my loss. Give it to me." Raeleigh extended her hands. Deanna's big eyes were glimmering. They formed a crescent squint when she smiled.

"Raeleigh, you know me too well. I can boldly tell you that I have never lost since I was a child. My mother said that I would lose one day.

However, I haven't lost yet. I defeated both Zorion and Jepherson." Deanna took Raeleigh's arm proudly. Raeleigh stared at Deanna, without saying anything. She had known it all along.

People always had their unique strengths or points. Maybe Deanna had the ability to perceive what other people would show during a rock-paper-scissors?

It was hard to say.

"Where are we going?" Raeleigh asked, holding her new phone. Deanna looked up and answered, "Let's shop around upstairs. Since we are all here, we should get a meal before going back."

Outside the store, Deanna was like a wild little pony, running all the way furiously upstairs as she dragged Scarlette along with her. Raeleigh and Zorion were left behind once again.

By the time Raeleigh arrived upstairs, Deanna had been standing in the jewelry area for a while, studying a pair of earrings with Scarlette.

Raeleigh went with Zorion, but she did not look at the items. She had never been interested in these things. Even if she was interested, she could not afford it.

"Raeleigh, do you like it? I can get it for you," Deanna implored as she tugged on Raeleigh. Raeleigh shook her head and told her, "My ears are not pierced."

"What?" Deanna immediately looked at Raeleigh's ears and saw that her ears were really not pierced.

"Raeleigh, what's wrong with you?" Scarlette asked. Although it struck her that something was off, it was not her place to pry. However, Raeleigh really seemed quite upset.

"Nothing, let's go." It took them some time to go downstairs. Raeleigh went for a toilet break midway, and Scarlette accompanied her to the restroom. Hence, they were quite late when they met up with Zorion and Deanna again.

Zorion was sitting on a chair with his legs crossed, with Deanna sitting beside him. They had not started eating as they were waiting for Raeleigh.

Seeing Raeleigh, Zorion subconsciously uncrossed his legs.

After that, he picked up the menu, and started ordering. As Raeleigh was not very hungry, Scarlette only ordered one dish for her.

Before their meal, Deanna told Raeleigh, "There are very few girls without pierced ears. I think you should do it. You'd look even more beautiful if you did."

"That doesn't matter." Raeleigh just smiled. The orphanage did not allow the children to pierce their ears. Novalie wanted to take her, but she had been afraid of pain since she was young. Through all that, they ended up not going.

"How does it not matter? Men prefer women to doll themselves up. Without earrings to accessorize, it looks awkward." Deanna was very serious. Her face was tense.

Raeleigh fixed her gaze on Deanna and answered, "Many earrings can be worn without piercings."

"Then, are you saying that you don't want to pierce your ears?" Deanna's expression was stiff. She had never met a girl that did not prioritize her beauty. Raeleigh was a very strange beauty.

"Zorion, do you like girls without pierced ears?" Deanna's childish appearance tickled Raeleigh's funny bone. Her mood was slightly improved, but when she looked at Zorion, Raeleigh still felt displeased.

She had not expected that Zorion would threaten her.
