Chapter 978
After Santiago finished his breakfast, he drank some water before heading into the bathroom. Once
he came out, he looked at Raeleigh and asked, "Is there anything you need me to do? If not, then
I''ll leave."
Santiago spoke as he walked towards the door. Raeleigh quickly said, "Can you please bring me
myptop?"
Santiago turned around and said, "Alright, no problem."
After saying that, Santiago cast a nce at Jepherson and left.
Scarlette decided to hitch a ride with Santiago back to the university. Throughout the entire journey,
she kept her head down and remained silent.
Santiago saw Zorion standing at the university entrance just as he pulled into a parking lot.
Zorion purposely came to the university to find Santiago.
Santiago got out of the car and made his way into the university. He greeted Zorion when he saw
him. "Hey, what are you doing here?"
"Where is Raeleigh? How is she?"
"She''s dead. You can extend your condolences," Santiago said as he walked past Zorion. Zorion
froze for a moment before turning around and following Santiago. He said, "Please don''t joke with
me. I want to see her, where is she?"
Santiago stopped and turned to look at Zorion. "If you have the will, then go and find her yourself.
Why are you asking me? Would you believe me if I said that I have no idea where she is?"
"Nope."
"If you don''t believe me, then why are you asking me?" Santiago was amused. He turned around
and continued walking towards the university.
Scarlette did not dare to utter a single word the whole time. She quickly followed Santiago as they
made their way towards the dormitory.
As soon as Scarlette entered the room, she immediately noticed that Deanna''s belongings were
gone. With that, she instantly knew that Deanna knew what was going on and that she would no
longer be living here.
Scarlette did not know what else to say as reality slowly sunk in.
It was too pathetic for two women to turn against each other just because of a man.
Scarlette found Raeleigh''sptop and handed it to
Santiago. After that, Santiago immediately turned
to leave. Scarlette briefly tidied up the room
before picking up herptop and catching up to
Santiago.
When the two arrived at the door, Zorion was no longer there. However, Scarlette still looked around
to see if he was nearby.
When Scarlette did not see him, she immediately got into the car with Santiago. Once they got into
the car, Santiago''s lips curled into a smile. He started the car and decided to take another route to
the hospital.
"Santiago, did you take the wrong turn?" Scarlette asked.
Santiago did not reply, but he drove at breakneck speed. It was as if he was racing.
Scarlette felt as if she was going to throw up. She hurriedly grabbed hold of the car door handle.
Soon, she saw a convoy of the Whalen family''s cars through the rearview mirror. She instantly
understood what was going on.
"Santiago, what should we do?"
"Sit tight." After saying that, Santiago mmed on the elerator. Scarlette could even hear the
sound of the tires screeching against the tarmac.
Scarlette had always felt safe in cars, but not that time.
Santiago got out of the car as soon as he pulled
into the hospital parking lot. The convoy of the
Whalen family''s cars were nowhere to be seen.
Santiago immediately made his way into the hospital while Scarlette was kneeling on the ground,
vomiting out all the contents in her stomach. After vomiting for about ten minutes, she slowly
stumbled onto her feet. She felt as if the sky was spinning and could not bring herself to walk
steadily.
After a long time, she finally made her way into the hospital. Fortunately, Hadrian was there. She
had to rely on him to get to Raeleigh''s room. As soon as she arrived at Raeleigh''s ward, she
immediately copsed onto the bed.
Raeleigh frowned and asked, "Scarlette, are you alright?"
"Am I alright?" Scarlette did not dare to say anything else. She justy on the bed and shook her
head.
Santiago, who was standing at one side, said, "She''s probably having severe motion sickness."
Raeleigh asked curiously, "Scarlette, do you feel nauseous?"
Scarlette nodded her head. Raeleigh did not know what to say since she had never seen her get
motion sickness before.
"Here, as requested. What are you nning to do with one hand?" Santiago said as he handed
Raeleigh herptop. She looked at him before epting herptop and turning it on. She went onto
the university''s website before she began looking through their study materials and drawings.
Santiago then walked towards Jepherson. The brothers were about the same height.
"I''m sure our father will get involved in this matter. I can''t go on your behalf to visit the Whalen
family. Grandma has already called me and asked me where you are."
"I''ll go over to the Whalen family residenceter," Jepherson said as he took a quick nce at
Raeleigh. He continued. "You have to stay here."
"I know."
The two brothers were talking as if they were the only ones in the room. After that, Jepherson made
his way over to the bed and kissed Raeleigh.
Raeleigh raised her head slowly. She did not say anything but just looked at Jepherson with her
serene eyes. Jepherson smiled, got up, and left.
Santiagoy down on the other bed in the room and said, "I want to have steak for lunch, medium
well. Oh, I also want some cod fish too."
Santiago spoke as he closed his eyes. He looked as if he was about to fall asleep. Scarlette replied,
"I''ll arrange itter."
To Scarlette, if Deanna was a person that was hard to deal with, then Santiago was two times
harder. It was frightening.
Raeleigh was amused. She looked up at the two people on the bed and could not help but tough.
When Jepherson emerged from the hospital, he suddenly received a call from Marissa. However,
he did not answer the phone. Instead, he let Stuart do so.
"Madam Marissa," Stuart answered respectfully.
Marissa was at home, pacing back and forth. She made call after call.
"Stuart, where is Jepherson? Are you guys back in the country yet?" Marissa was very impatient.
Although everyone already knew that Deanna had been found, Stuart could still hear the
seriousness in Marissa''s voice.
Stuart said hurriedly, "We''ve just gotten off the ne. We''re rushing over to the Whalen family
residence to visit Miss Deanna."
"Is that so? Where''s Jepherson? Ask him toe to the phone." Marissa insisted on hearing
Jepherson''s voice.
"Mr. Jepherson is taking a break. He''s exhausted. I''ll tell him first thing when he wakes up that you
called."Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.
Marissa felt that since Jepherson was getting some rest, then it would be fine for him to call her
backter.
"Alright, then. Don''t forget to tell him," Marissa said. Stuart immediately replied, "Yes, Madam
Marissa. I will let him know."
"Okay, then. Send my regards to Deanna."
"Yes, Madam Marissa."
Marissa hung up the phone and Stuart immediately returned the phone to Jepherson.
Jepherson did not take the phone away. He just said, "Call our people and tell them that we are
suspicious of the Moore family. Ask them to conduct an investigation on them."
Stuart was stunned for a moment and asked hesitantly, "Aren''t you going to tell Mr. Hansen about
this?"
Jepherson immediately said, "He''s not in the country. What''s the point of telling him?"
Stuart choked and did not dare to say anything.
Jepherson said, "Go on, make the call."
Only then did Stuart make the call. He was a little worried as he ced the phone call. Although
Flynt had done something wrong and angered Jepherson, the Moore family was still one of the
most powerful families in Capital City. If they
really made a move, then it would affect the entire
city. At that time, it would cause a huge
Both Mr. Hansen and Madam Jenna were not in the country. So was Mr. Trevor.
What were they going to do if something really happened?
"Stop the car," Jepherson suddenly said, causing Stuart''s heart to skip a beat. He was so frightened
that he gulped.
