Chapter 1591
Raeleigh went back to her room first. By the time Xanthos returned after seeing Lenold off, Raeleigh
had already prepared the food. When she saw Xanthusing back, she told him to wash his
hands before having dinner.
Xanthus paused for a moment. "Raeleigh, I saw two people on my way back."
Raeleigh raised her head to gaze at him. "Who?"
"Colston and Louisa."
"Why are they here?" Raeleigh put down her cutlery, unable to figure it out.
"They seem to have bought a house and settled down in Waverly Vige. I saw them arranging
things outside the house but I didn''t disturb them."
"Let''s have our dinner first. We can go and check it out after this."
Raeleigh was preupied during dinner. How did Colston sneak into the vige? She pondered on
that disturbing fact.
After dinner, she went to visit Colston and Louisa. On the way, she asked Xanthus, "Since we didn''t
know that Colston is here, will Ste also be able to sneak in here?"
"No, Jacky has already searched the vige. He said she wasn''t here."
In fact, they had considered that possibility at the beginning, therefore Xanthos was quite
reassured.
Raeleigh didn''t say anything else. Arriving at Colston''s ce, she stopped and fixed her eyes on
Colston, who had just brought food ingredients back.
Colston walked at a fast pace. As he went in, a woman came out of the house. Raeleigh saw clearly
that it was Louisa.
Louisa had a plump belly and she ced her hand on it as she walked out. The couple was talking
about something riveting and they appeared ted.
Raeleigh observed the house they lived in. It was not a high-ss one, hence Raeleigh thought it
must be rented.
Raeleigh watched for a while before turning to look at Xanthus. "Don''t tell Jacky about this first.
They should be looking for Colston too."
"Something happened to the Moore family and Colston is here, which means that Colston knows
about it. The reason why he came here is to live a peaceful life."
"Raeleigh, your words make sense. Since Colston and Louisa managed toe into the vige,
Ste must have her own way to do it too."
"Yeah. That''s why I''m going to look for her in the vige."
Raeleigh had her suspicions from the very beginning. There was no trace of Ste in entire Capital
City and there was no record of her leaving the city. Unless she had escaped underground, she
should have been found by now.
The fact that she could not be found didn''t mean that she was missing. It was just that her hiding
spot was not detected yet.
"Raeleigh, listen to me. Don''t do this by yourself. Let Jacky help us."
Xanthus was really perturbed about Raeleigh. In his eyes, he was ineffectual as a brother as he
could not deal with a cunning person like Ste. All he could do was remind Raeleigh to be more
cautious.
Furthermore, Xanthus failed to see through Raeleigh''s mind recently. He had no idea what was
going on in her mind at all. In fact, she exuded a sense of unfamiliarity at times.
He was aware that she was hurt because of what had happened to Santiago, especially because
the Richards family had decided to send him overseas when she wanted to take care of him. She
could not simply leave the country and follow them abroad for Santiago''s treatment. So, the option
was taken out of her hands.
Xanthus actually wanted to propose to Hansen to let Raeleigh take care of Santiago so that she
could leave this dangerous ce at least. However, things didn''t go his way. After all, Hansen''s son
was injured. As an outsider, he didn''t have the right to make requests
In any case, there was no longer a need to put forward such a suggestion.
Raeleigh fell silent for a bit. "Even if Ste is really hiding in Waverly Vige, she won''t dare to do
anything to me. If she harms me here, she can''t run. She isn''t a fool. Didn''t you say that Jepherson
attacked the Doyle family? If so, she won''t dare to go back home. If she does, the Doyle family
would not let her off. So, she could only stay here."
"In other words, I''m safe for now."
"Raeleigh, why do you think so? Ste is a maniac. If she could hurt Santiago in Capital City, there
will be no problem for her to hurt you here."
"It''s not the same. There won''t be any bias in favor of her here. Jacky will show no mercy to her,
neither will I."Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Raeleigh turned her face away. "This is not Capital City. Here, she can''t get another man like
Jepherson to protect her again."
With that, Raeleigh walked away. Xanthus was baffled by her words for a moment as he stared at
her disappearing silhouette. For some reason, he had a hunch that she had been bottling up her
feelings. Beneath that tough exterior of hers, there was a vulnerable, weeping soul.
By the time Xanthus returned, Raeleigh had already gone into her room. Feeling uneasy, Xanthus
knocked on her door. What followed was Raeleigh''s calm and indifferent voice. "Xanthus."
"You''re going to bed?"
"Yes."
Raeleigh suddenly came out of her room. She opened the door while rubbing her eyes. She was
wearing pink pajamas. It was not until Xanthus saw her that he was relieved. "Go to bed if you are
sleepy. Why did youe out?"
Raeleigh answered, "I know your mind won''t be at ease if I didn''te out. Then you''re going to
spend a restless night."
"Fine, I''ll go to bed now. You should rest too."
Then he went back to his room to rest. Seeing him return to his room, Raeleigh went back and
changed her clothes. After a short while, she came out of her room again, heading out with a
shlight.
The sky had darkened but Raeleigh was not afraid
of the dark.
Leaving her home, she made her way along a street. After she reached the end of the street, she
took a detour onto another road.
It was still early for the vigers in Waverly Vige. They would not rest this early.
This was especially so as it was the season when they were busy farming theirnds.
Raeleigh wandered through the streets where many people roamed around. She effortlessly noticed
some strangers who didn''t belong to the vige.
In this way, it was easier for her to locate Ste.
Just like how Xanthus had seen Colston and his wife. He recognized them at a nce since they
were not from the vige.
Raeleigh did not manage to find Ste after walking around. She checked the time to find that it was
about ten o''clock. Only then did she decide to make her way back.
As Colston and Louisa came to her mind, she took another route and headed for their ce. What
came to her sight when she arrived there was Colston and a few people who were dressed like the
vigers angrily shoving each other.
"Who are you? Why are you being so unreasonable?" Colston raised his hand and pushed a man
away. However, the other party was quite barbaric. They shoved him back without saying anything.
Their attitude was rather arrogant.
Raeleigh frowned as she had never seen these people before. They did not seem like vigers from
Waverly Vige. She wondered who they were.
While Raeleigh was watching, one of them went into Colston''s house. Colston turned around and
intended to go back but two people grabbed him. Colston was unwilling to give up and he fought
with them. It was just that Louisa''s screaming could be heard right afterward.
Raeleigh called for help immediately. Worrying that wouldn''t be enough, she took out her phone and
searched for the audio of the police siren. Then she yed it with the highest volume and put the
phone in her pocket. Following that, she lowered her head and approached the fighting scene.
As she expected, when those ruffians heard it, they all took flight. Colston made a dash for his
home.
Raeleigh walked over directly, pretending that nothing had happened. After waiting momentarily,
Jacky''s men had arrived. Raeleigh asked them to look for Ste secretly before she went to
Colston''s house.
Colston was hugging Louisa andforting her. When Raeleigh entered, he thought that those
people hade back once again. As a result, he suddenly picked up a cleaver from the ground
and was ready to fight. However, he was stupefied at the sight of Raeleigh.
