Chapter 1156 Cynthia Moving In
It had been a few days since Santiago had been hospitalized. Raeleigh''s hand had fully healed, and
they were about to be discharged. However, Jepherson did not show up in the past few days, nor did
he contact Raeleigh either. It was Raeleigh who took the initiative to call him twice. Although he did
answer the phone, he was no longer as gentle as before. There was still warmth in his tone albeit
different.
Raeleigh hung up the phone and looked over at Scarlette. "Let''s go. Jepherson is noting. He has
something to attend to."
"He''s noting even when you''re being discharged today?" Scarletteined in a low voice.
"Let''s go." Raeleigh exited the ward, followed by Scarlette and the rest as they all headed home
together. Xanthus was a great help. He even sent them home. When they arrived home, he got out of
the car and went up to Novalie''s room to exin to her the situation.
Raeleigh stood aside. Novalie lifted her head and took a look at her granddaughter. She instantly knew
that Raeleigh and Jepherson must have had a fallout and was not on talking terms.
"Raeleigh, Xanthus has helped you a lot recently. Why don''t you ask him to stay for lunch?" Novalie
asked. Raeleigh immediately agreed. "Alright then. I''ll go and inform Serra."
"Go ahead."
Raeleigh turned around and went down to the kitchen to inform Serra that they would be having an
extra guest for lunch. After that, Raeleigh sat in the living room. She kept thinking about what she did to
have Jepherson distance himself from her. Could it be that he had misunderstood her?
Santiago was also sitting in the living room with Cynthia. The two were watching TV when Cynthia''s
phone rang. Santiago briefly looked at the caller ID and realized it was Flynt who was calling.
"Flynt..."
Cynthia''s face immediately turned pale when she heard her brother''s words. Then, she looked over at
Santiago. She could not believe it when her brother told her that two of Yanora''s fingers had been
chopped off. Not only that, but she had also been molested.
Flynt sounded furious when he informed Cynthia of what had happened. He even told her that he was
currently standing outside their house.
Cynthia put her cell phone aside and turned to look at Santiago. "Did you do it?"
Santiago nodded solemnly.
"Didn''t we agree to let it go?" Cynthia sounded weak when she said that. She knew that she shouldn''t
have said anything about that matter, but Yanora was her sister. How could she stand by and do
nothing?
Santiago seemed unperturbed. "There''s nothing I can do. Jepherson is mad about what happened. If
he had taken action, then I''m sure your sister would have lost more than just two fingers."
Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.
Cynthia pondered for a moment before saying, "I get it."
Raeleigh sat aside. Cynthia felt unpleasant. Yanora was nTristany vited. Although she deserved
punishment, she could not ept that Santiago had asked his men to chop her sister''s fingers off.
Couldn''t he give her a good beating instead?
Santiago stood up. Even though he had been discharged from the hospital, his arm was still bandaged,
in a sling.
Santiago stood at the door and looked outside. When he saw Flynt standing at the door, he stepped
out.
Before he reached the door, he could already hear Flynt yelling at him.
"Santiago, you''re inhumane! That''s my sister! Why did you have to do that to her?" That was the first
time that Flynt had lost his temper. He initially thought that with Cynthia around, Santiago would not do
anything out of line. But right then, it seemed that he was literally a psycho.
Cynthia did not dare to leave the house. She sat in the living room, clenching her hands in a tight fist.
She did not even dare to return home right then. She was going to be homeless soon, and her family
would call her a ck sheep.
Raeleigh understood how she was feeling. That was why she did not say anything. Instead, she went
out to check on Santiago.
Santiago stood at the door and stared at the irascible Flynt with indifference in his eyes.
Flynt stopped yelling, licked his lips, and he then said, "Are you out of your mind?"
Even though Santiago was young, he was still as intimidating as Jepherson. When he spoke, Flynt
instantly fell silent.
"Yanora is clearly jealous of Cynthia. The other day, she wanted to tag along with us on our date. I did
not reject her for Cynthia''s sake and even dropped her off at the shopping mall, leaving right after that."
"Afterwards, she sent someone to hunt us down. I''m sure you know that I was not the target. It was
Cynthia."
"She was heartless, so I treated her the same way. I will not let anything happen to Cynthia. I couldn''t
care less about the others. If she hurts Cynthia, then it means that I''ll be hurting her in return. It''s not
my fault. You should ask her for an exnation instead of me."
After saying that, Santiago went back into the house.
Santiago was somewhat stunned when he saw Raeleigh. He then asked her to follow him. Raeleigh
turned to look at Flynt before entering the house. Flynt seemed devastated. He eventually stumbled
back into his car and sat there in a daze.
A few momentster, Cynthia received a phone call and left. Raeleigh was worried, so she decided to
follow her. Cynthia was soft-hearted. She followed Flynt to visit Yanora at the hospital after leaving their
house.
Raeleigh returned home to tell Santiago. "Cynthia went to the hospital."
Santiago sat on the couch with a helpless expression, but he got up and went outside,ining as
he walked. "Women are really troublesome."
"Scarlette, keep an eye on Raeleigh," Santiago instructed as he walked out the door. Scarlette hurriedly
replied, "Alright."
Santiago went out to find Cynthia. Raeleigh headed into the kitchen to check on lunch. She then went
upstairs to ask Xanthus whether he wanted to eat at the dining table or with Novalie. In the end, he
chose to enjoy his meal with Novalie. Raeleigh couldn''t be at ease in front of them, so she had her
meal downstairs with the rest.
After lunch, Santiago returned home with Cynthia. Cynthia was towing her luggage while Santiago was
carrying two pots of flowers in his hands.
Raeleigh was sitting on the couch as she fixed her gaze on the two of them. Santiago said the moment
he entered the house, "I have something to announce. From now on, Cynthia will move in to live with
us. She will no longer be staying with the Cole family."
No one asked anything. Scarlette knew that that day was inevitable. She knew that it would happen
sooner orter after such a thing had happened.
However, she admired him in her heart. Santiago was really not a person to be trifled with.
A minor trick of his could easily tear a family apart.
However, she had no idea what Santiago was thinking. If he really got married to Cynthia, then wouldn''t
he piss Paige off?
However, Scarlette was intrigued. Paige usually acted high and mighty. She wondered how furious she
would be when she learnt about that?
Scarlette knew that Paige was not fond of Raeleigh. She wondered, did she like Cynthia?
Scarlette took pleasure in other people''s misfortune. Raeleigh hurried over to help Santiago with the
flower pots. She said while walking up the stairs, "There are two empty rooms beside Santiago''s. You
can have the bigger room of the two."
"Thank you." It was a tough decision for Cynthia, but she knew that it was better for her to move out of
the Cole family residence. It was better than to be singled out.
Just then, when she was in the hospital, her mother pped her, and everyone cried as soon as they
saw her. All the things came to her one after another. There was nothing she could do right then.
There was no point in staying. The only thing she could do was to leave for the time being.
