Chapter 999
Perhaps, Zorion could be saved. They were not sure if they should inform Old Master Whalen.
Santiago nced at him and walked up the stairs. Deanna followed behind closely, tugging and
pulling, preventing him from entering Zorion''s room. However, it was all in vain as her strength was
as weak as that of a chick''s.
Zorion refused to eat, as he was on a hunger strike. Deanna was worried, and she couldn''t
remember thest time she had a proper meal either, or else she wouldn''t have lost so much
weight.
Deanna couldn''t stop Santiago, so she shouted at him, but she shut up when they arrived at
Zorion''s door.
Santiago turned his head to look at Deanna before pushing the door open and walking in.
When he entered the room, he saw Zorion putting his palms on his chest. He frowned and walked
over to Zorion. Looking down at him, he asked, "Are you dead?"
Zorion opened his eyes slowly when he heard Santiago''s voice. Only then did he slowly move his
hand aside.
Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.
He didn''t say a word. His was taken away from his thoughts and finally came back to reality.
"Don''t scare people into thinking that you''re dead. Otherwise, you''re better off dying. Raeleigh
doesn''t belong to you in the first ce. You''re just a third wheel. Don''t you know that?"
"If everyone acts like you when they have a crush on someone, then the world would have been in
chaos. Raeleigh was not in the wrong, neither was Jepherson. The fault was yours, to begin with. If
you like someone, then you should ept the fate of your unrequited love."
"Not everyone''s feelings have to be reciprocated. Everyone likes clowns. Clowns are there to give
you joy, but they can''t possibly fall in love with you all of a sudden."
"To honor love with death is not wrong. What''s wrong is your concept of so-called love. You have to
get something that doesn''t belong to you. You don''t understand what love is."
"You''re sad and angry because you can''t get it..."
"Get out. Don''t bother Zorion." Deanna grabbed Santiago from one side. She didn''t want to hear
those words, let alone her brother, Zorion.
However, Deanna was weak. She hadn''t eaten a proper meal for a while as a result of Raeleigh''s
and Zorion''s matter. Santiago did noty a finger on her before she fainted right in front of
everyone''s eyes.
Santiago''s eyes were sharp, and his hands were swift. He pulled her into his embrace and he then
looked at Zorion. Zorion was stunned before he subsequently got up from his bed. However, he
hadn''t moved for too long. His body turned rigid, and his blood rushed to his brain as he copsed
onto the bed.
Santiago bent down and picked up Deanna. He put her on the bed, and then called the doctor to
come over immediately.
Zorion was also so angry until he passed out.
The butler quickly came up the stairs. Santiago had put Zorion and Deanna on the bed, trying to rub
Deanna''s pressure points, so that she could be awakened before moving on to Zorion.
After the two siblings woke up, they saw Santiago talking to the butler. "Get them something to eat.
Wait for the doctor outside."
"Sure."
After the butler left, Santiago turned around to look at the pair of siblings lying on the bed. Zorion
forced himself to sit up and looked at his sister, saying, "Why are you so stupid?"
Deanna pouted. "Zorion, don''t die, alright? I''ll stop liking Jepherson. I''ll listen to you."
After saying that, shey in Zorion''s arms and sobbed. Santiago stood on one side, watching them.
Zorion held her in his arms and leaned against her for a while,forting her. "It''s all my fault. I
won''t be so foolish in the future. I''m sorry I scared you!"
When she heard her brother talking, she burst into tears, causing her to pass out.
Santiago had a helpless expression on his face. He walked over to the bed in a few steps and
rubbed an acupuncture point to keep her awake. It was only then that Deanna gradually regained
consciousness. However, she was still crying sadly when she woke up.
When the doctor came over, he gave both of them a shot. Deanna was so scared that her face
turned pale, and she shrank into Zorion''s arms.
Santiago stood at the side. Zorion was in poor health, but he still coaxed Deanna for a long time.
Santiago saw Deanna stretching out her hand, closing her eyes tightly, as if she was ready to die.
It was not until the doctor had dealt with it that Deanna calmed down. She stopped shaking in fear
andy still on the bed, soon falling asleep from the exhaustion.
The pair of siblingsy on the same bed. Deanna fell asleep, but Zorion did not.
"Thank you." Zorion still had some strength to thank Santiago. Santiago stood still at the side. Since
there was nothing he could say, he turned around and went to the door, going downstairs to take a
nap.
Seeing that he was asleep, the butler cautiously went up to him. "Mr. Santiago, would you want to
eat something? It''s cold down here. There''s a guest room upstairs."
Santiago merely nced at the butler before heading upstairs to check up on Deanna and Zorion.
The siblings had fallen ill, so Santiago stayed at the Whalen family residence for the entire day.
Three dayster, Deanna and Zorion finally recovered, and the pair of siblings went outside.
In the afternoon, Zorion parked his car at the entrance of Elkton University, waiting for Santiago.
"Get in the car." Noticing Santiago, Zorion opened the door and called him over.
Scarlette was behind Santiago. The two people were the subject of various gossip, and it seemed
that something was indeed going on.
She didn''t bother. Let the rest of them say whatever they wanted. She knew what she had done.
Santiago stopped to look inside the car but did not get in. Instead, he turned and walked to the side.
Deanna muttered inside the car, "I told you he wouldn''te."
Zorion looked back at his sister. The door closed and the driver drove away.
Scarlette felt bored. She asked Santiago while walking," Santiago, when will Raeleigh return?"
"How would I know?" Santiago returned to the car. Scarlette took over the driver''s seat. The two of
them left together.
It had been ten days since Raeleigh came back.
After getting off the ne, Raeleigh thought about visiting her grandmother.
"I want to go back to Grandma''s ce. Send me back." Jepherson''s car was parked outside the
airport. They sat in the car while Jepherson nced at the time.
"Go to Raeleigh''s ce and call Old Madam. Tell her we''ll be back tonight."
"Sure."
Stuart responded. The car drove to Raeleigh''s residential area. Raeleigh got out of the car, and so
did Jepherson.
"Don''t follow me. You''d better go back first. It''ste. Didn''t you say that you''re going to visit your
grandmother?"
Raeleigh did not expect Jepherson to follow her out of the car. She wanted Jepherson to return
home.
It was enough for Raeleigh to stay with him for ten days. She would really fall ill if she stayed with
him for another ten days.
Jepherson looked at the surroundings, and then at the time. "It''s ten o''clock, I''ll go there after
lunch."
Raeleigh didn''t know what to say. He didn''t have breakfast earlier. She might feel bad and pity him if
she didn''t get him to eat lunch.
"Then, you should leave after having lunch, but you''ll have to leave right after." Raeleigh feared that
Jepherson would cling to her.
She had already promised to follow Jepherson, but she was not ready to ept him. The distance
between the two of them could amount to a few gxies. It could never go beyond that.
Raeleigh hadn''t figured out what she should do.
Jepherson wanted to stay, and Raeleigh had no choice but to invite him in. When she entered the
door, Raeleigh sensed something amiss. There was a pair of men''s shoes at the door.
Raeleigh froze and fixed her eyes on the shoes, frowning.
