Chapter 1818 Let's Get Married
Leaving this place meant that Raeleigh would have to part with Santiago. She indeed had feelings for
him throughout this half a year of living as a married couple. Now and then, even she could not tell
whether she did not love him anymore.
Raeleigh was not a cold-blooded person. Watching as Santiago went around the mountain to collect
medicinal herbs and cut firewood day after day just for her sake, she was touched.
When they were about to leave, Raeleigh threw a glance at Santiago, finding that he was all right and
as muscular as a bull. He even gained some weight.
"What's wrong? Are you tired?" Santiago looked back at Raeleigh after taking a few steps. She did not
reply while pulling a suitcase in her hand. Both of them were not wearing clothes of their own, but
Flencer's and Caira's.
There was only one suitcase.
Since Raeleigh did not reply, Santiago went back directly and bent down, asking Raeleigh to get up
onto his back. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
"I've just taken a few steps. There's no need for that."
"Come on."
Santiago insisted, hence Raeleigh climbed onto his back.
She lay on his body and he pulled her up. Then, he attached the suitcase around his waist with a hook.
He carried her on his back, but it did not affect his movements. He gracefully moved while looking
around.
Raeleigh lay on the body of Santiago without saying anything.
The mountain path was full of twists and turns. Santiago hadn't reached the end of the path even after
plodding for half a day. At night, Raeleigh and Santiago had to sleep in the bamboo groves.
Although it was not too cold at night, they still embraced each other tightly. No one knew what had
happened that night. The next morning, Raeleigh's body was half-covered and Santiago was not
around. She couldn't see any traces of him.
Raeleigh checked her chest and tidied up her clothes before standing up from the ground. At that time,
there was a red thread tied to Raeleigh's ankle, on which hung a tiny bell. Since then, she never
removed it until the moment she died.
The bracelet, which Jepherson put on her wrist and could not be opened, had disappeared.
Raeleigh gazed at the red thread and remained silent for a long time.
In fact, it was not a big deal for her to remarry.
Such a thought came to her mind out of the blue. She spoke it herself when she saw Santiago.
"Let's get married."
Santiago stood opposite to her and there was a clear look in his eyes. Subsequently, he agreed.
"Okay."
Raeleigh stood still as the corners of her mouth curled up into a smile. After that, Santiago held her
hand and went to take a bath before putting on their clothes and came out.
By the time they descended the mountain and returned to Capital City, it was already a long time later.
On the first day of their return, Jepherson had been waiting for the two of them outside Waverly Village.
When Raeleigh and Jepherson met, she gave the bracelet back to Jepherson. Santiago was also
present.
Holding Jepherson's hand, she passed the bracelet to him and said, "It's intact. Now that I've returned it
to you, we're even from now on."
Jepherson pulled her hand over and wanted to put it onto her wrist again. Santiago went forward and
gave Jepherson a push. "Stay away from her."
Jepherson scowled at him. Santiago said, "Raeleigh is pregnant."
Santiago's sentence hit Jepherson like a thunderbolt. He took two steps back and stared at the two of
them incredulously. Santiago said, "Don't worry. I won't stay forever. I'm going to leave after some
time."
"Go back and tell Dad that you can have all the properties in the family. I only want Raeleigh."
Turning around, Santiago went into Waverly Village with Raeleigh wrapped in his arm. Raeleigh raised
her head to feast her eyes on Santiago's striking features. She did not look back because she had
made up her mind.
On the day of their return, someone told Raeleigh that Jepherson had collapsed outside the village and
was taken away by others.
Raeleigh sat by the window, looking outside. She neither spoke nor thought that Jepherson would die.
Anyway, she didn't expect that the dispute between the brothers would escalate into this state.
That day, Jepherson fell critically ill. The severity of his illness seemed to be true this time, but Raeleigh
did not visit him. Deanna came to see her in the morning and asked her to change her mind about
marrying Santiago. Deanna even gave her a lecture.
"Raeleigh, everyone agrees if you want to remarry another man. For instance, you can marry Austin.
Look, your daughter is still in Austin's hands and my son hasn't come back yet, right?"
"What sort of woman will remarry the brother of her ex-husband?"
Raeleigh stared at Deanna with an innocent look. "Why not? I don't think it's a big deal."
Raeleigh talked back, "Which is more important? Love or social stigma? Now that I've divorced, is it
wrong to choose another man? If not, what's the problem with being together with the man I love? Even
if they are brothers, I will marry him."
Coming out, Deanna shook her head, raised her head to look at Jacky, and said, "She's so far gone.
That's too foolish her. Santiago must have tricked her. I've long seen through this big liar."
Jacky wrapped an arm around his wife's shoulders, saying, "Don't interfere in other people's business."
"Jacky, you don't understand it. That's not how the plot of my novel goes. It's completely out of line with
logic."
Jacky had lost for words.
Could a person's life be measured based on logic?
"Let's do the prenatal care check up later."
It had never occurred to Jacky that Deanna would get pregnant again.
Since she was pregnant, there was no reason not to keep the baby.
...
After Deanna left, Scarlette and Hadrian came as well, followed by Rossie. Rossie had given birth. She
carried the child over and when she met Raeleigh, she let the child romp on the ground.
It was a girl. Zorion cared about her very much, even more than his own life.
When Raeleigh spoke, Santiago was also looking at the child. He found her little palms very adorable.
Santiago remarked, "I want a daughter too."
Raeleigh raised her head and her eyes landed on Santiago. "We can have one."
Rossie looked up at Raeleigh slowly. After a long time, she said, "Jepherson is sick, and he's been
starving himself lately. You should at least pay him a visit."
Raeleigh said, "I can't pity him for a lifetime. At the moment, he is an irrelevant person to me. Who will
pity an irrelevant person?"
"Raeleigh, he is your daughter's father," Rossie reminded. Raeleigh then replied, "It's not absolute."
All of a sudden, everyone stopped talking.
Rossie had no option but to leave with Zorion and their child.
After everyone had left, Raeleigh gazed at Santiago. "Let's go and visit my parents."
"Bring Shaney with us before we leave."
Mentioning Shaney, Raeleigh was preoccupied for a while. Santiago checked the time. "It's late
already. Let's go there tomorrow."
As the topic of going to meet Shaney had been brought up, Raeleigh did not rest throughout the whole
night.
In the morning, Santiago had his breakfast and changed his clothes before driving Raeleigh to Green
House. It was Lenold who came out to welcome them.
As soon as they met, Lenold cast a disapproving look at Raeleigh and Santiago. "I really didn't expect
the two of you to be the same kind of people."
"Where is Austin?"
Raeleigh didn't care much about his comment, but it was Santiago who spoke. He stood there with a
calm look. Nevertheless, he exuded an aura of frostiness, as if it could lower the temperature around
them.
Lenold intended to stop Santiago from entering, but he couldn't care less. If Santiago was unhappy,
there was nothing he would not do.
