Chapter 1214 Leave with Her


    Raeleigh was rankled, but she was not angry. The way Jepherson had been acting was the same as


    she did previously. She really did not know how she could have been so stupid then.


    And she felt a little distressed because of this.


    However, there was nothing she could do about it. The baby was gone, and the snow globe that used


    to hold their mutual dreams had shattered. There was no way she could make peace with this.


    After leaving Jepherson''s office, Raeleigh did not know where to go, so she simply went to find


    Xanthus.


    When Xanthus saw Raeleigh, he froze for a moment. He roughly knew what had happened. Raeleigh

    went inside and found a ce to sit, saying, "I want to stay here for a while."


    Xanthus poured a ss of water for Raeleigh. He sat beside her and asked, "He''s here, isn''t he?"


    "He''s been insisting that I am his sister. He''s been digging up old memories, trying to reopen my old


    wounds. I can understand his feelings, but it is precisely because of this that whenever I see him, I feel


    like I am seeing myself in him. How am I to live with this truth?"


    "If you can''t ept it, then don''t ept it. It''s okay," Xanthus held Raeleigh''s hand, feeling guilty. He


    should have told her earlier. That way, they might have been able to keep the baby.


    For Raeleigh, losing her child was more painful than dying.


    She could have slowly forgotten about it, but Jepherson regretted it now. Desire and interweaved love


    was more important than the so-called noble bloodline that he once looked so highly upon. Hence, he


    began to involve Raeleigh instead.


    If things continued on like this, Raeleigh would only get swallowed deeper into this whirlpool of hell.


    Xanthuspletely understood this state of limbo. On the one hand, she felt pained because of her


    child and was afraid to bring up anything rted to that pain of hers. On the other hand, another sight


    of Jepherson meant another moment of misery.


    If Jepherson had told her about their rtionship earlier, or if he had said something sooner, she would


    have at least asked him to prove it to her. However, it was toote. The baby was gone and Jepherson


    was already ming himself. If Jepherson was told that he and Raeleigh were not biological


    siblings and that he had ultimately made an irreversible mistake, he would only end up all the more


    devastated. Deep down, Raeleigh was worried that Jepherson would find out about it.


    Xanthus held Raeleigh in his arms. He needed toe up with a solution as soon as possible. If this


    matter continued on, Raeleigh might not be able to take it anymore. It might be the catalyst to her


    downfall.


    "Pull yourself together. Please. I''m sure we will find a way," Xanthus continued, "That reminds me, it''s


    the holiday season now. Why don''t we bring Grandma with us and spend some time overseas?"


    Xanthus could not think of a better solution. He let go of Raeleigh and added, "Why don''t we defer one


    semester and go abroad for a short getaway?"


    Raeleigh was hesitant. Xanthus insisted, "Only for one semester. Who knows, maybe Grandma will like


    it abroad and ask to stay."


    "You are her only hope. If you are not happy, do you think she would be happy?"


    Xanthus kept on talking, but Raeleigh did not answer him.


    Not long after, Raeleigh was found by Jepherson.


    "Can Ie in?" Jepherson''s gaze was cold and fierce. He looked much like a predator hunting down


    his prey. Xanthus pretended to be polite, especially since he had his white coat on.


    Xanthus had a polite smile on as he spoke in a gentle tone. When he saw Jepherson, Xanthus was not


    angry. After all, he was the one who did not make things clear before asking Raeleigh to terminate the


    pregnancy. As Raeleigh''s brother, he did not like men like Jepherson. A man should not make such a


    mistake.


    However, they were in Capital City, Jepherson''s territory. He could not fight Jepherson head-on,


    therefore...


    He had to be polite.


    Cynthia looked at him from behind. Xanthus smiled at her as assurance. Then, Santiago raised his


    hand and touched Cynthia''s face, coaxing, "Let''s go outside. It''s hot in here."


    "All right," Cynthia was not young, but she was in the same ss as her brother Flynt.


    Fortunately, Flynt had transferred schools. Otherwise, it would have been humiliating.


    Santiago turned around and brought Cynthia out of the room. Outside, he found a very quiet ce


    under a tree and told Cynthia, "I am nning to bring you abroad to have your scar removed. We may


    be gone for a long time."


    "Must we go?" Cynthia was a little reluctant to leave this ce. She did not want to leave her friends.


    "You''re a woman. You will not look good with a scar on your body. If you don''t have it removed, it might


    be hard for you to find a husband in the future," Santiago jumped and snapped a branch off from the


    tree.


    Cynthia stared at Santiago. She knew that the rtionship between her and Santiago was like that of a


    brother and sister, and not love between a man and a woman.


    "I''m not sure if I''d be lucky enough to meet someone who won''t judge me by my outer appearance,"


    Cynthia sped her hands together and stared at Santiago, who had his back to her. Santiago''s face


    had a hint of a smile. He turned around to look at her and chuckled, "Don''t be silly. There isn''t such a


    man in this world. Men usually fall in love at first sight, and that''s usually what works for them."


    Cynthia sighed in response, "Look at these flowers. No one likes an ugly flower. People always want


    the beautiful ones."


    "But I want the person to like me because we share the same interest, not because of my looks."


    Santiago responded, "But I still think that looks are very important. I mean, it''s a good thing that you


    capture a man with your beauty. Then, you can use your intelligence and elegance to conquer this


    man. Have him wrapped around your little finger."


    It was then Cynthia understood that it was time for them to separate. Although they were reluctant to


    part, all good things muste to an end.


    "Well, then I''ll go abroad and have my scar removed. After that, I wille back and do what I''ve


    always wanted to do."


    Cynthia had always known what she wanted, it was just that no one had believed in her.


    That same afternoon, Santiago bought a flight ticket abroad. Cynthia followed Santiago to bid their


    farewell to Raeleigh. It was only then that she learned about their ns. Yet, she had her hands full just


    dealing with Jepherson.


    "You''re leaving?" Raeleigh got up from the inside and pulled Cynthia into the room. Cynthia sat down


    and began to exin everything to her.


    "I want to stay with Raeleigh tonight," Cynthia told Santiago. Santiago immediately answered, "I''ll keep


    youpany then."


    With that, both the Harvey brothers spent the night at Raeleigh''s.


    Xanthus did not protest. However, it was then that he came to a decision: he would leave with


    Raeleigh.
