Go After My Ex-wife

Chapter 1662 Couldn't Withstand Distresses

Leaving the hotel, Raeleigh inquired Lucy on what she would like the purchase, to which the latter said

she would like to get something practical. She would get it if it was suitable but give up on the idea if

she didn't come across one.

As the car parked itself at the entrance of the mall, the four of them emerged from the car.

Raeleigh and Lucy walked ahead, Jepherson and Stuart following right behind.

Raeleigh and Lucy took the opportunity to strike up a conversation, but Jepherson and Stuart had

nothing to say to each other as they fixed their scorching gazes on their women.

Entering the mall, Raeleigh accompanied Lucy to the lingerie store to select their undergarments.

Raeleigh's undergarments were all tailor-made, as well as her outfits. She would only check on those

that had caught her fancy.

So she barely spent her money. On the other hand, Lucy would give up purchasing when she learned it

was too high-priced, although she did take a liking to some of them. Her idea was that the item had to

be economical as well as to her taste.

Raeleigh strolled around the store and set her sight on a red bra. She checked the price and gestured

the salesgirl over for extra inquiry. With that, she went to Lucy.

"Lucy, come here."

Hearing Raeleigh's call, Lucy strode over to her for Raeleigh to ask, "Does it look good?"

Lucy first felt the material, then checked the price. "It does look good, but it's somewhat

expensive. They'll charge a lower price if it's in Tamberland."

"Yes, but they mentioned we can get a 30% off if we were to buy two sets of it."

Lucy did a mental calculation before pointing out, "It's still slightly overpriced even with the discount."

Raeleigh then proceeded to ask the salesgirl whether there was a higher discount if they were to buy

three sets of it. The salesgirl replied by saying that they could get 40% off.

Raeleigh inquired, "It's a 40% discount; do you want it?"

Lucy schemed. "What about four sets? Will we get a 50% discount?"

Jepherson's eyebrows furrowed into a frown while Stuart chuckled.

The salesgirl shook her head and apologetically told them that the highest discount they could obtain

was a 40% discount. She provided them with an alternative that they could apply for memberships.

With the membership card, which could also be used in other stores in the mall, they would be

rewarded extra gifts with every expenditure of theirs. Not only that, but they could also enjoy special

discounts once they had accumulated up to certain levels of points in the mall.

Raeleigh instantly applied for the membership. The ladies each bought two sets of bras.

Following that, the two did the same, obtaining discounts and gifts as they made the most out of their

money.

After spending the whole morning strolling around the mall, Raeleigh and Lucy went for lunch before

they carried on shopping.

For the first time in his life, Jepherson lost his patience. He settled down on a spot and waited for

Raeleigh. Only when the clock struck eight that Raeleigh and Lucy descended to the ground floor, still

feeling the lingering excitement from all the shopping. They agreed to continue their shopping the next

day.

In the evening, Raeleigh began sorting her shopping out when she returned to her room. She didn't buy

a lot, just that as she sorted, she labeled them accordingly, planning to gift them to her loved ones.

Jepherson saw two silk ties, one of which had Xanthus's name, while she kept the other away.

Passing by, Jepherson withdrew it out of the luggage. It was a striped tie in pink and white.

"For me?"

Jepherson wrapped it around his neck. Without waiting for Raeleigh's reply, he went to the mirror and

admired his reflection with Raeleigh staring at him from behind.

She had to admit that there were those in the world who needed no fancy garments. One example of

such a man was Jepherson; a casual shirt was sufficient for him to appear breathtaking.

Standing in front of the mirror, Jepherson asked, "How do I look?"

Raeleigh nodded but said nothing. She had planned to gift it to her father, but since Jepherson had his

eye on it, she would give it to him.

Jepherson fiddled it for a while before approaching Raeleigh and pulling her up. "Do me a favor."

With that, she fixed the tie on him. Once completed, she cast a glance at Jepherson and moved back

only for him to hug her from behind, questioning, "Why isn't there one for me?"

"Haven't you already put it on?"

Raeleigh held his hand. She was at a loss of words for how easy Jepherson could get jealous. It was

merely a tie.

"It's really mine?"

"Mhm."

Since he had already worn it, she might as well let it be.

He carried her up and made his way to the bed. Raeleigh yelped, "Stop doing anything I don't like.

We've..."

Before she could finish her words, her voice was muffled under the attack of his lips and tongue.

Raeleigh had only managed to drift off to sleep late at night and was awakened at eight in the morning.

Ignoring Jepherson's suggestion to take a break for a day, Raeleigh thought of how both she and Lucy

had agreed on it and headed out the door.

Upon arriving at the mall, Raeleigh yawned from time to time. She took a nap, resting her head on the

table to appear more energetic at noon, but she would still fall into a deep slumber after they had

returned to the hotel.

Raeleigh had initially planned to check out jewelry with Lucy on the following day, but Jepherson took

her to the hospital for a full body check-up.

"I'm completely fine. Why do you insist on bringing me to the hospital?"

Raeleigh was taken to the hospital before she had even had her breakfast. She had been grumbling

after sitting down, but Jepherson turned a deaf ear. He had made an appointment with the best

healthcare team to give Raeleigh a comprehensive examination.

It was time to take her blood sample then.

"You can eat after they draw your blood."

Jepherson held Raeleigh's arm, pulling her into the room whether she liked it or not.

Inside, eight tubes charged at her blood vessels like starving mosquitoes, drawing her blood dry. She

leaned on the side and watched as her blood was sent to the laboratory. Only then did she have her

breakfast before continuing another series of checkups.

After a whole day of running about, the results were finally released. According to the doctor, she was

fine, just that she lacked exercise and had a frail body. From NôvelDrama.Org.

The type that couldn't withstand distresses.

She sat aside, cupping a mug of hot cocoa. While she enjoyed her drink, Jepherson fetched some

supplements before leading her out of the hospital.

The sky had already darkened by the time they left. Raeleigh yawned as she felt drowsy once more.

Jepherson held the bag of supplements with one hand and Raeleigh's hand with the other, walking

forward.

Across the road, Stuart's brows furrowed slightly. "What does it feel like to hold the hand of a woman

married to another man?" He wondered.

To him, Jepherson was only tormenting himself. He knew clearly Raeleigh had married another man,

yet he still clung to her.

Seeing Stuart as they approached the car, he asked, "When have you arrived?"

"Just. We haven't had our dinner and would like to invite you and Madam Raeleigh to join us."

"Thanks, but no. Raeleigh and I will eat in the hotel. You two have fun."

Bending over, Jepherson got into the car with Raeleigh and subsequently looked out the window at

Stuart. "I don't need you here; you may leave."

"Yes, sir."

With that, Stuart closed the door before turning around to leave.

In the car sat the couple and the chauffeur, who sensed that something was amiss. Raeleigh had been

sleeping once she had gotten into the car, looking all drowsy and weary while Mr. Jepherson held her in

his arms...

The chauffeur sent them back to the hotel. Getting out of the car, Jepherson bent over, carried

Raeleigh in his arms, and strode into the hotel.

Raeleigh nestled in his arms. She was too tired to keep herself awake.
