Chapter 987


    "Who were you with this early in the morning?" Santiago asked while eating breakfast, not looking


    up to meet her gaze. Raeleigh said, "I went out for a walk."


    "Then, why didn''t I see you? I also went out for a walk." Santiago continued to ask.


    "I didn''t see you, either." Raeleigh sat up after being satiated and paid no attention to him.


    Scarlett raised her head to look at Raeleigh and Santiago. She thought that Santiago''s future wife


    must be well- prepared for all his unnerving questions.


    Scarlette followed after Raeleigh. Raeleigh was on her way to the ssroom when she was stopped


    by Scarlette. Scarlette asked her, "What were you doing in the morning?"


    "Nothing. I just went for a walk outside." Raeleigh didn''t say anything. She was afraid that she would


    be scolded if she told her what had happened.


    Scarlette believed that Raeleigh would be safe with Santiago by her side. Without prying further,


    they went to the ssroom.


    The university was holding a huge basketball match that afternoon. Many people went to watch the


    game. Scarlette wanted to drag Raeleigh along with her to the game, but Raeleigh refused.


    "Let''s go," Scarlette pleaded, for she also knew how to y basketball.


    Raeleigh shook her head. "I have no interest in it. You can go on your own."


    "What would happen to you if I was not around?" Scarlette really wanted to go.


    "I''ll go back to the dorm and lock the door. No one will kidnap me."


    "Then, I''ll go back with you. After you lock the door, I''ll take my leave."


    "Alright."


    Scarlette and Raeleigh walked back to the dormitory. Raeleigh opened her notebook and started


    reading it. Scarlette deduced that it was safe for her as long as the door was locked. Besides,


    Zorion would be participating in the match, so his fangirls would be there too.


    There was nothing to worry about. So, Raeleigh was left alone in the bedroom while Scarlette went


    to watch the game.


    Santiago was forced to take part in the match. After changing his clothes, Santiago stood outside,


    looking unhappy.


    He didn''t want to y, but he was forced into it by


    those who did not get the hint.


    Zorion saw that Santiago was approaching, so he took the opportunity to leave by going to the


    bathroom.


    Santiago wasn''t a fool. When he saw Zorion escaping, he grabbed his shirt and walked out of the


    room. However, the moment he reached the door, he was blocked by Deanna.


    Deanna looked at Santiago with her head tilted to one side. "Santiago, I''vee to seek revenge


    on the matter that you''ve wrongly used me of."


    "I don''t have time to talk about this matter. Find someone else to bother." Santiago didn''t give a


    damn about Deanna at all. He walked away. Deanna shouted, "Santiago, don''t you dare escape! I''ll


    go to your family and tell your grandmother that you''re working together to deceive her. Think about


    it, how will your grandmother treat Raeleigh?"


    Santiago stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Deanna. His expression was extremely bitter as


    he said, "Deanna, we grew up together. I regard you as my sister. How did you end up like this?"


    Deanna clenched her teeth, and her little face was sour. "That''s my business. Now,e with me."


    Turning around, Deanna went to another location. Zorion was going to find Raeleigh, so she


    decided to take Santiago to the library.


    There were a row of trees on the way to the library. Deanna didn''t say anything and just kept her


    head low. She was already irritated by Santiago. The person who bothered her the most in this


    world was him. Ever since she was young, she hated his existence since he was born.


    Thinking back to the things that Santiago had done when he was a child, Deanna wanted to


    strangle Santiago to death.


    She remembered the countless times when Santiago bullied her. Even though she was older than


    Santiago, she was not as tall as him. Santiago had always had a stronger build than her. At first,


    she was indeed taller than him, but as they grew older, Santiago quickly caught up.


    Due to Santiago''s tall figure, he always bullied her, whenever there was no one around them. At that


    time, she was only ten years old, but she remembered everything.

    When they reached a certain ce, Deanna stopped in her tracks. Santiago''s eyes were fixed on


    her. However, she no longer cared about these things. She no longer cared about Jepherson. She


    felt that there was no meaning to life anymore.


    Right then, Deanna''s goal was to help her brother. She didn''t want to see her brother unhappy


    because of Raeleigh.


    "You don''t have to stare at me like that. No matter how you look at me, you won''t be able to kill me.


    My will to live is very strong. Let me tell you, Santiago, I hate you. I have hated you since we were


    young. If you dare to annoy me or make me unhappy, then I will tell Grandma Marissa everything.


    By then, you will be locked away in your room."


    Santiago sneered at Deanna''s aggressive threat. He walked under the tree and leaned against the


    tree without saying a word.


    Deanna gradually calmed down. When she thought of Jepherson, she still felt sad.


    Tears welled up in her eyes. Jepherson was an important person in her life. Her life would be


    fulfilled with Jepherson by her side. However, this wish had been destroyed. She could not ept it,


    no matter how hard she tried.


    Wiping away her tears, she said, "I hate you all."


    Santiago slowly turned around to look at Deanna. "This has nothing to do with me. They''re the ones


    who harmed you."


    "It''s you! It''s your fault!" Deanna shouted at Santiago. Santiago turned his face away and ignored


    her.


    After shouting for a while, Deanna stood silent.


    The two of them basked in each other''s silence as the sun set.


    Deanna looked at their surroundings. It was already dark and it was time to return.


    "Alright, you can leave as soon as you send me back." Deanna ordered him like a queen as she


    turned around. On his way to send Deanna back, they met Zorion. Santiago stopped and said,


    "Don''t go too far. My brother has been too busy to pay attention these days. Don''t me me for


    being rude."


    After saying that, he proceeded to head back to find Scarlette and Raeleigh. Zorion turned to look at


    Santiago and said, "You don''t have to worry about our personal affairs."


    "You had no right to interfere with their rtionship. It has always been between Raeleigh and my


    brother. But you were selfish. You proceeded to intervene anyway. I can''t sit back and just watch."


    After saying that, Santiago left. Zorion was speechless as he stood still. Inside, he was feeling very


    anxious about Santiago''s words.


    Earlier that day, he had met up with Raeleigh, but she did not say a word to him. She felt distant


    towards him.


    When Santiago came back, no one answered the


    door.


    After calling Raeleigh on his cell phone, she came to the door and told him off. "It''ste. You should


    go home now. You can''te here as you please. This is the women''s dormitory."


    "Scarlette." Santiago ignored Raeleigh. Scarlette got up on her feet, intending to open the door.


    Raeleigh said, "Don''t open the door. Otherwise, I''ll knock you out."


    "Then, hurry up, I don''t want to be tortured." Scarlette was about to go crazy.


    Santiago was not one to be trifled with.


    Scarlette was about to open the door, but Raeleigh pulled her onto her bed, wrapping her in a quilt.


    Santiago had been knocking on the door outside for a long time when he heard someone yelling.


    Santiago wasn''t sure if Raeleigh was serious about her words, so he just turned around and left.
