Chapter 1126


    Raeleigh did not speak along the way. Although she did not want to talk to him right then, she had


    to find Deanna. Moreover, Santiago was the best person to help.


    Santiago nced at her as she continued walking. "Do you have anything to tell me?"


    It took them quite some time to reach the open field on campus. Then, Raeleigh said, "Xandra


    caught Deanna. Even if she didn''t, she must have something to do with it. Flynt just told me that the


    Moore family is up to this, but he didn''t want to get involved. He just wanted to do me a favor."


    "What a d*mned favor." Santiago cursed without hesitation, which made Raeleigh frown. "If you are


    going to act this way, then we have nothing to say between us."


    "I didn''t say anything about you either. What are you worried about?" Santiago''s expression was full


    of his usual arrogance. He turned to look at Stuart and ordered, "Investigate Xandra''s whereabouts


    immediately. Since when did the Moore family have such a person?"


    "She''s Quirina," Raeleigh answered. Not to mention Santiago, even Scarlette was shocked by what


    Raeleigh just said. Scarlette came back to her senses and ran towards them, asking, "Raeleigh,


    what did you say?"


    "I said, she''s Quirina," Raeleigh repeated while staring at Santiago. "I didn''t want to talk about this.


    Nheless, we were somewhat connected to the disfigurement of Quirina''s face. I just want to


    give birth to my child peacefully and have nothing to do with Quirina anymore."


    "After Quirina was disfigured, she got stic surgery and altered her features. Somehow, as soon


    as she appeared, I sensed that I knew her, but I didn''t recognize her immediately. Later, when I met


    her, I caught on, but I didn''t say anything."


    "You''re stupid then." Santiago chirped with conviction. Raeleigh rolled her eyes, finally realizing how


    rude he could be. He would chide her at any given opportunity. If he hadn''t done that, then he would


    cease to be his usual self.


    However, in order to find Deanna, Raeleigh decided not to argue with him.


    "Yes, I''m stupid." When she said that, Scarlette and the rest froze. Was she making fun of herself?


    Raeleigh appeared dead serious, as if she really believed that she was stupid.


    Scarlette turned her head away. Raeleigh was also terrifying when she got angry, although not as


    scary as Santiago.


    "Okay, you''re also an idiot." Santiago continued to scold Raeleigh, as if he did not see her serious


    expression.


    Raeleigh stared at him. "What I am is not important. I want to search for Deanna. If you want to help


    me, then find her. If you don''t, then just beat it."


    She had no other way then.

    Santiago rolled his eyes at her. "Since it''s Quirina, it''s easy to deal with her. Go to Meica. She must


    have contacted Quirina, she''s her mother after all."


    "I think so too, but I''m not sure. We should split up and find this person. Get in touch once we find


    her. I''ll be with Scarlette while you can go with Stuart." Raeleigh did not want to pair up with


    Santiago, so she spoke first.


    "Come with me, and Scarlette, go with Stuart." After saying that, Santiago informed them while


    strutting off, "Raeleigh and I are going to Meica''s ce. Stuart and Scarlette will look around


    campus. We want to know if anyone has seen Quirina recently. She must have her own reason for


    kidnapping Deanna."


    "Yes, Mr. Santiago."


    Stuart agreed from behind, while Scarlette nced at him. Since it concerned Deanna''s safety,


    Scarlette immediately went to find those who might have known Xandra.


    The four of them split into two teams. Even though Raeleigh was unwilling to pair up with Santiago,


    she still followed him to Meica''s home. At the same time, she called Jepherson, who was in a


    meeting. After he picked up the phone, he stopped the meeting and walked out of the conference


    room, noticing Hadrian, who was standing by the door. As Jepherson was used to having Stuart


    around, he felt ufortable at the sudden sight of Hadrien. Hence, he walked away and


    answered the phone. After the call, Jepherson contacted Zorion, who immediately went to Meica''s.


    When Raeleigh and Santiago arrived, Zorion wasn''t there yet. Raeleigh was waiting in the car, while


    Santiago got out and went to Meica''s residence. When he reached the door, he rang the doorbell.


    Soon after, someone came out. Raeleigh observed and soon saw Meica''s servant, who was


    confused, as she had never met Santiago before.


    "May I ask who you are?" The housekeeper was polite. After all, it was Meica''s home. Moreover,


    she did not wish for Santiago to think she was rude.


    Santiago immediately replied, "I''m your mistress''s friend. I made an appointment toe here


    yesterday. Is she out?"


    The housekeeper thought for a moment. "My mistress didn''t mention anything about it."


    "What should we do? I''ll call her and ask her toe back." Santiago was going to take out his cell


    phone and ce a phone call. Instead, the servant chimed in hurriedly, "Why don''t youe in and


    wait for her?"


    The maid knew that Meica was a social butterfly. If she was med for not treating the guests well,


    or if she were to bepared with the first wife, then Meica certainly would never let her off the


    hook.


    "Is that alright?" Santiago even feigned refusal. The servant looked at Santiago, who had a noble


    and wealthy aura. He did not look like a bad person either. Only then did she invite him in. "Please


    come in, sir. Our mistress will be back soon."


    The housekeeper''s reasoning was simple. Since he was here to look for Meica, he could just wait


    inside. No one would be so mad as toe here and pretend to be someone they were not. That


    would have been crazy.


    Watching Santiago enter the residence just like that, Raeleigh sat in the car and did not know what


    to say.


    Everyone in Capital City said Santiago was the devil incarnate, which made sense.


    No one else could have pulled off the act he just did.


    After entering the house, Santiago sent Raeleigh a text, telling her not to get out of the car, lock the


    doors, and wait for him.


    Raeleigh followed his instructions and locked the door. She gripped the car keys in case anything


    happened.


    She waited outside for more than an hour until Santiago came out, with the servant sending him to


    the door. When Santiago left the house and got into the car, Raeleigh asked immediately, "What''s


    going on?"


    "She''s not here." Santiago immediately started the car and called Zorion. "She''s not at Meica''s.


    Meica isn''t home either. Get searching, and I''ll look near the school."


    After hanging up, Santiago drove off. Raeleigh leaned in her seat and recalled carefully. Quina


    certainly would not go back to campus. However, she could not go anywhere else. They had


    searched and turned the entire Capital City upside down to no avail. For a person as arrogant and


    domineering as Quirina, she would not go anywhere that did not benefit her.


    After staying silent for a while, Raeleigh could not figure it out.


    The car stopped, and Santiago got down. Scarlette and Stuart also walked out. When Scarlette saw


    Santiago, she ran to him and reported, "Mr. Santiago, people are saying that Xandra is at a holiday


    vi. They don''t know what she is doing there."


    "Do you have an address?"


    "Yes, I do."


    "Get in." Turning around, he got in and started the engine. However, he went directly to the resort


    that time instead of calling others. When he arrived, he looked back at Stuart and ordered, "Wait


    here outside with Raeleigh. I''ll go in with Scarlette. Don''t let Raeleigh leave."


    "Mr. Santiago, don''t worry."


    Stuart nodded anxiously and then sat in the car, on guard. Raeleigh was aware of her own physical


    condition too. She could not run around, and no matter what, she was pregnant. Therefore, she


    would not run out of the car without a care.
