Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 970

"Get up," Santiago said as he walked to Raeleigh. He lowered his head and urged her to stand up. Raeleigh was kneeling on the ground as she wiped her tears.

Santiago asked Raeleigh, "What are you afraid of? She chose to run away. You did not force her. It's not your fault she's in a bad spot now."

Raeleigh did not answer. It took her a long time before she got onto her feet and continued her search for Deanna.

"Stop looking! You will not be able to find her. She's clearly hiding from you." Santiago pulled Raeleigh and shouted at her.

Raeleigh began to argue with Santiago because of this.

"She's human, not a kitten or a puppy. You two are family friends. Don't you have any concern for her?" Raeleigh bellowed as she shoved Santiago. She had never been this angry before.

It was also not the right time for her to lose her temper.

Santiago held Raeleigh's arm with both his hands as he stared at her with dagger eyes.

"I treat Deanna like a sister. I am also very worried. Although I am not fond of her, she is still someone I respect."

"It's just..."

"There's nothing I can do now to help the situation."

Raeleigh froze. Santiago pushed Raeleigh away with great force and looked at her with contempt in his eyes.

Raeleigh stumbled backwards. Scarlette did not dare to go over. Compared to Jepherson, Santiago was merciless. His temper was even more unpredictable. He was unscrupulous.

Scarlette still remembered an incident when she was about eleven or twelve years old.

Santiago was still quite young then. However, she snuck out to play once and was beaten up by a group of boys. At that time, she was dressed like a tomboy and her hair was short. People would mistake her for a boy.

She was surrounded by a group of boys and they began beating her up.

She was beaten up until there were bruises all over her body. Her face was covered with scars. After that, she went back home to hide. One reason was that she did not want others to know that she had gone out to play, and the other was that she felt embarrassed that she had been beaten up.

At that time, Scarlette and Hadrian were being trained by Aron.

Scarlette was the only girl in the group.

At that time, it was Santiago's first day. Scarlette found a room and thought it was empty, so she quietly went in to disguise herself. However, she did not notice that there was another person on the upper bunk.

Scarlette was shocked to realize that she was not alone. Before she could say anything, Santiago asked, "Who hit you?"

Scarlette thought that Santiago was just like her, an orphan, who had come to Aron to be trained. So, she told him the whole story.

At that time, Santiago had jumped down from the bed. Santiago had been particularly fierce since he was a child and was a little taller than all his peers. Although he was younger than her, he was still slightly taller than her.

After that, Santiago motioned for Scarlette to follow him. She initially did not want to follow him, but when she saw the fierce look in Santiago's eyes, she eventually gave in.

Scarlette did not like fighting with people she knew.

Santiago found two sticks in their rooms and hid them behind his waist. Then, he asked Scarlette to follow him.

She did not dare to follow him because there were too many people.

But Santiago was walking ahead, and it was impossible for her not to follow him. So, she obediently did so.

When they got out, it was already dark. They walked to the place where she had been beaten.

At that moment, even if Scarlette wanted to go over to help Raeleigh, she was too afraid.

She did not dare to go over to help Raeleigh up.

Santiago stood there coldly. Scarlette felt that it was not that he did not want to find Deanna, it was just that right then, there was no point in worrying.

Raeleigh stayed on the ground for a long time. Once she calmed herself down, she gradually got back up on her feet.

"What should we do now?" Raeleigh asked, standing behind Santiago.

"Zorion has assembled a team of people to look for her. The only thing we can do is to observe the surroundings. This campus is not that big. How can she disappear just like that? Unless someone has been waiting for her all this while," Santiago said as he looked at Raeleigh and Scarlette.

Scarlette did not understand who would have the courage to kidnap Deanna.

"Do you think it's Flynt?" Raeleigh immediately asked. Santiago smiled and said, "You are quite smart."

"Mr. Santiago," Scarlette immediately called out to him. He turned to look at her and asked, "What?"

"Wasn't Flynt involved in a car accident?"

"That was what was reported in the news. Who actually saw it happening? It would still be considered as a car accident if only his car was damaged. If he isn't dead, then he'll still be able to come out and do a lot of evil things." Santiago had thought through these things. He was not as naive as Scarlette.

Raeleigh took a deep breath and said, "What if Flynt could not gain what he wants from us? What if he wants to take revenge on Deanna?"

"There's no need to talk about revenge. However, I'm sure Deanna is safe in Flynt's hands. He is not a fool. Capital City is under three families' control. He wants to draw the Atkinson family over to his side to balance out the power in Capital City. If he can capture Deanna, then he will be in control of this place. I doubt he would do anything to Deanna." Santiago had long thought about this. There was only one reason why they hadn't been able to find her after so long, and that was because she had been kidnapped.

As for the person who had the courage to do so? The answer was pretty obvious.
