Chapter 1575


    "I don''t n to do anything. Raeleigh is in need of help. I can''t just stand by, can I?" Jepherson


    muttered as he fiddled with his ring.


    Hansen turned to look at his son, "Are you sure you''re the father of the child?"


    "Yes."


    Jepherson insisted the baby was his, but his behavior made Hansen even more worried. With an


    angry grunt, Hansen turned around and refused to address the matter any further.


    Jenna was almost choking on her rage as well. If her son insisted that he was the dad, then why


    was he acting like this? Why did he want a divorce? Anyone with discerning eyes could see that he


    wasn''t the father. If he was, he wouldn''t have agreed to a divorce.


    Hansen was also seething. However, he could not me anyone else but himself for having such


    troublesome sons.


    Over the past two days, Raeleigh had been put on a health and supplement meal n and was


    being watched like a hawk. No matter where she went, there would always be someone following


    her. It was rare that she could go out on a stroll alone


    and decided to check the progress of the hospital''s construction. However, she did not expect to


    bump into Scarlette and Hadrian.


    As soon as Scarlette saw Raeleigh, she bombarded Raeleigh with all kinds of questions. Raeleigh


    decided to drag Scarlette along with her as they wandered around Waverly Vige.


    "Raeleigh, where have you been all this while?"


    "It''s all old news so let''s just drop it. Just pretend that nothing has happened," Raeleigh did not feel


    like talking about her past. Scarlette stopped and stared at her while Raeleigh walked on before


    Scarlette quickly caught up again.


    Raeleigh apanied Scarlette as they wandered around the streets. Just then, Xanthus saw his


    sister walking along the streets and was stunned. He immediately stopped her and red at her


    before reaching out to grab Raeleigh''s hands.


    "How many times have I told you not to do anything without asking me first?" Xanthus asked


    Raeleigh, who smiled and feigned ignorance.


    "We still have something to do, so we''ll excuse ourselves first," Xanthus wrapped his arms around


    Raeleigh and led her back to their house. Scarlette watched them from behind, puzzled by what she


    just saw. Wasn''t it unnecessary for him to hug her like that even if he was her brother?


    "Come on, let''s go."


    Hadrian nudged Scarlette. When they first went outside for a stroll, the weather was slightly warm.


    Now it was getting cold, so they had to go home.


    As they walked on, Xanthus informed her, "I already made an appointment with Jepherson. Well go


    through with the divorce tomorrow. He called and asked me if you have any other requests. I guess


    he must have prepared some alimony for you."


    Raeleighughed nonchntly, "If he wants to give me some alimony, I''ll ept it."


    Xanthus looked at Raeleigh and asked carefully, "The baby..."


    "This baby is going to be an Osteen," Raeleigh said as she continued walking. Xanthus stood still


    as he watched his sister whom he had lost and regained. Sometimes, he couldn''t quite figure out


    what was going through her mind.


    The next day, Raeleigh and Xanthus went to the Civil Affairs Bureau and queued up for their turn.


    However, Jepherson waste.


    Raeleigh went to take a number, took a seat and waited for her sequence to be called.


    By the time her number was called, Jepherson had arrived.


    Jepherson spotted Raeleigh as soon as he got out of the car and quickly made his way towards her.


    Raeleigh then informed him that their number had been called, "It''s our turn. Let''s go inside."


    After Raeleigh finished her words, she shuffled inside. When Jepherson saw her unhesitating


    expression, he followed her in.


    Jepherson''s driver, who was waiting outside, was a little confused.


    He genuinely did not want them to get a divorce, but he was just a chauffeur. What could he do?


    The couple had only been married for a short while, but they were already about to get a divorce.


    Raeleigh went inside and the officer asked them several questions. Raeleigh informed the officer


    that they wished to get a divorce. Jepherson chimed in, saying that he was the one who proposed


    the divorce and that he would give Raeleigh some alimony after the divorce.


    The officer stared at the two of them in a daze. It took him a long time before he came back to his


    senses. Secretly, he was thinking, "Rich people are really different. They get married on a whim and


    once they''ve had enough fun..."


    The officer then briefly looked through the names on the documents and realised that the man in


    front of him was none other than Jepherson Richards.


    Jepherson Richards from the Richards Group?


    The entire process took almost half a day. Raeleigh exited the building with Jepherson''s cheque as


    well as various documents. She read through them carefully and suggested, "Since you have time


    today, why don''t we take care of the other stuff as well?"


    "Are you really in that much of a hurry?" Jepherson''s tone made it sound like he was interrogating


    her, however he was not mad at all. On the contrary, it sounded like he doted on her even more.


    Even the driver could tell that Jepherson could not let go of Raeleigh, yet he was the one who


    insisted on getting a divorce. What else could be done?


    Raeleigh shrugged, "It''s such a hassle to fix another date. Since we are already divorced, we might


    as well take care of the other things as soon as possible."


    "Whatever I''ve given to you, is yours. I can do without it."


    "That''s very easy for you to say, but I want to make it legally mine," Raeleigh just wanted everything


    to be transferred under her name.


    Jepherson took a look at the time and decided to go to the notary office with her. They had toe


    up with an agreement before they could even submit an application to have the house transferred


    under Raeleigh''s name. The process was very troublesome. A period of inspection through the


    documents of the property was required before it could be transferred under her name.


    After they were done, Raeleigh decided to grab some food with Jepherson.


    Raeleigh decided to order salmon and a couple of healthy dishes.


    However, Raeleigh began to feel queasy the moment she saw the salmon. She lurched, got up and


    darted to the toilet to vomit. Jepherson quickly followed behind her, stroking Raeleigh''s back as she


    puked. Once she was done, she went back to her seat, but started to feel queasy again when she


    saw the fish.


    Jepherson immediately asked someone to take the salmon away, whereupon some colour finally


    returned to her pale face.


    After resting for a while, Raeleigh started digging in. Jepherson sat beside Raeleigh and kept


    looking at her. It was not until Raeleigh looked a lot better that Jepherson heaved a sigh of relief.


    After Raeleigh was done with her meal, she called Xanthos and told him what time she expected to


    return home.


    Jepherson then handed her an envelope, saying, "This is the agreement between you and the


    Richards Group. We will officially terminate our contract from today onwards. As for your


    compensation, I will give you 1 % of the share of all the cars you''ve designed in thepany. I''ve


    already ced the documents of proof inside the envelope."


    Raeleigh looked at the envelope in front of her and took it over, muttering, "Thank you."


    "You''re wee."


    Jepherson did not take a single bite of food. He stood up and said, "Let''s go then."


    Raeleigh followed Jepherson back to Waverly Vige with a stack of documents in hand. She sat in


    the car and admired the scenery outside the window, never feeling this rxed. Even if they were


    separated, she found that she could ept it readily.


    When they arrived at the entrance of Waverly Vige, Raeleigh got out and looked at Jepherson


    through the window. She then asked, "Did your friend manage to find anything?"


    Jepherson thought for a moment and shook his head, "No, I also tried asking, but he said he didn''t


    find anything."


    "Maybe he is really dead," Raeleigh spected before turning around and walking home. She could


    not hide her disappointment and helplessness.


    Jepherson stayed in the car as the driver closed the door.


    The driver got in and asked Jepherson, "Mr. Jepherson, shall we leave?"


    "Yes, let''s go."


    With that, the driver started the car and drove off. After taking a few steps, Raeleigh turned around


    and watched as the car disappeared in the distance. She held the thick envelope in her arms and


    gazed at it silently. Then, she looked down at her abdomen before turning around and continuing


    her journey home.


    In the meantime, Jepherson returned to the Richards Group Manor. He got out of the car and


    headed straight for Ink Garden. After entering, he immediately noticed Ste and walked towards


    her.


    "Jepherson."


    Ste was surprised when she saw him. There were indeed so many surprises today!

    "I came to see you."


    "Me? You rarelye to visit me," Ste eximed in sheer delight.


    "Yes, but it''s different this time. I came to send you off."


    Jepherson stood there, his words final and harsh. His expression was extremely frigid, which made


    the air around him freeze up.
