Chapter 1577 Devastated
Raeleigh said, "I don't care. It's up to you." Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
"You have guts! Fine, then I will tell you the good news first." Stella hesitated for a moment and said,
"You seem to get along well with both Jepherson and Santiago. I bet it'd be hard for you to choose
between both of them. Since that's the case, then I'll make the choice for you."
Raeleigh tightened her hands around her phone. "What have you done to Santiago?"
"What can I do?" Stella asked Raeleigh calmly. Irritation pricked at Raeleigh and she knew Stella did it
on purpose. So she tried her best to keep her cool.
"Fine. What's the bad news?"
Raeleigh did not want to engage in a pointless argument with her.
"The bad news is that I accidentally hit him on the head. Now, he's lying unconscious on the ground
with blood spilling out of his head. Oh, the good thing is that he's not going to die. Is this still considered
bad news?"
Raeleigh pressed her lips together then bit out. "Where is he?"
"How would I know? You'll have to find him on your own. I told you I have two pieces of news, not
three. I'm not going to tell you where he is."
Stella hung up the phone and looked at the already unconscious Santiago. She smiled and said, "I
genuinely did not expect the domineering Santiago would actually believe my words all for a woman.
What a joke!"
Stella sneered, "I don't understand what's so good about that b*tch that made you all lose your souls."
"Miss, what should we do now?"
One of Stella's men asked. She sneered, "He's already on the verge of death. I doubt he will make it
even if someone found him. Dump him somewhere near Waverly Village. I want that b*tch to know this
is the outcome for going against me."
"Yes, Miss Stella."
...
Raeleigh hurried out of Waverly Village while she tried to get Jepherson on the phone. However,
Jepherson was not answering her calls. Raeleigh pursed her lips. Her hands and feet were trembling.
What was Jepherson doing at this time? Why wasn't he answering his phone?
After calling Jepherson several times without success, Raeleigh anxiously made a call to Jacky
instead.
"Can you please help me call Jepherson? Tell him that Santiago's in trouble and ask him to send his
men to find him."
Raeleigh voice was trembling. Jacky immediately hung up without saying anything.
While Jacky was busy calling Jepherson, Raeleigh decided to call Zorion and tell him what happened.
Raeleigh emerged from Waverly Village and managed to flag down a taxi. She knew that since Stella
called, it meant that she wanted her to find Santiago. She had a feeling that he was somewhere
nearby.
Raeleigh got into the taxi and instructed the driver to head towards Capital City. However, just as they
approached Capital City, she saw three black cars on the opposite side of the road, coming out of
Capital City. Raeleigh quickly asked the driver, "Sir, do you have any idea where those cars are from?"
"Those luxury cars are definitely not from here. It probably belongs to some big shot." The driver was
very envious. Raeleigh said, "Can you please follow them? I'm a car designer. I want to have a closer
look."
"Alright. Since you're so interested, then I'll do my best to catch up. Please sit tight."
The driver quickly caught up to those cars. However, they did not get too close. She just wanted to
know where they were heading to.
The car eventually stopped somewhere near Waverly Village. Two people got out of the car. One of
them then went to open the trunk. They took out a black bag from the trunk and threw it by the side of
the road.
Raeleigh's heart sank when she saw the black bag. The driver was also a little nervous and
immediately knew that it was not a good sign.
Raeleigh said at once, "Do not make a sound. We're dead if they notice us."
Panic surged through the driver, but he eventually calmed down when he realized how calm and
composed Raeleigh was.
They held their breath until the three black cars left. Raeleigh immediately opened the car door and
darted towards the black bag.
Raeleigh hurriedly unzipped the bag and found Santiago. His entire head was covered in blood.
Raeleigh froze for a moment before dragging him out of the bag. Then, she shouted to the driver,
"Come quick! We need to save him!"
The driver hesitated for a moment before eventually getting out of the car to help Raeleigh carry
Santiago into the car. Raeleigh cradled Santiago's head as she studied his pale and lifeless face.
Raeleigh would never forget this moment. No matter how hard she hit him, Santiago had no response.
When they arrived at the hospital, Santiago was immediately transferred onto a gurney and rushed into
the hospital. Raeleigh held his hand tightly and followed alongside. At that time, Xanthus arrived too.
Raeleigh couldn't even remember calling her brother.
When Xanthus saw Raeleigh, he immediately pulled her into his arms and stopped her from entering
the operating room.
"Raeleigh..." Xanthus held Raeleigh in his arms. By then, Jepherson was standing behind them. He
saw how distraught Raeleigh was.
Zorion soon appeared in front of Raeleigh. However, Raeleigh walked over to the bench and took a
seat, not saying a single word.
Xanthus was worried that the stress would harm the baby, so he did a quick examination on Raeleigh
to make sure that his sister and the baby were fine. Only then, did he heave a sigh of relief.
Everyone was sitting outside the operating room. Raeleigh wasn't sure when her parents showed up.
She also did not know when Zorion's parents, as well as Jepherson's parents, came.
Belle was sitting to one side, weeping. Calvin stood beside her, his face pale. This was the first time
that Raeleigh had seen this.
Lottie was also crying as she held Belle's hand tightly. Deanna was also there. Although she was
pregnant, she was crying the hardest. She could not seem to stop her tears from running down her
cheeks.
Raeleigh was devastated, but she did not know why her palms were sweaty and her whole body felt
numb.
Jazelle walked over to Raeleigh and sat down beside her. She held her daughter in her arms and said,
"You have to cry it out when you're sad. Don't scare your mother like this."
Jazelle sounded very distressed when she talked. She did not know what to do.
Why did God have to punish the kid when it was the adult who was in the wrong? Although she was not
fond of Santiago, she did not hate him either. Jazelle felt sorry for him.
Raeleigh did not cry and remained wooden in her mother's arms. Jacky had been staring at the
operating room for the past three hours, but no one came out to give them an update. At this time, no
one knew what was happening inside.
...
A few hours later, Santiago was finally wheeled out of the operating room. This time, Jepherson
donated his blood to Santiago. Hence, when both of them came out, they were both lying in bed.
When Raeleigh saw them coming out, she immediately rushed over to the doctor and asked how
Santiago was doing. The doctor said...
