Chapter 1630 Furious
Chapter 1630 Furious
Paige didn't know how much time had passed before she calmed down. Hudson then cajoled her all
the way to her bed. After she fell asleep, Hudson sat vigil by her side as he held her hand until she
woke up. However, this time around, Paige threw an even bigger fuss. Even after she woke up, she
couldn't forget about Raeleigh being here. She refused to eat whatever was given to her, determined to
be starved to death.
Hudson had no choice but to take Paige to the Fragrance Garden to see Raeleigh. Belle was informed
and tried her best to stop them.
"Mom... "
Belle stood in the way to the Fragrance Garden, blocking their entry. When Paige saw her, she was a
little unhappy. It seemed that she had always knew about Raeleigh's presence.
Paige gritted her teeth so hard it could be heard. "Mom, I knew about this for a long time. Listen to my
explanation. It's not Raeleigh's fault. It's mine. We can talk about this once we head back lest we
disturb her and Santiago." she tried to dissuade her.
Paige refused to budge and glared viciously at Belle.
Belle was so anxious that her palms started to become sweaty. Her husband also wasn't here. She had
told someone to inform him but he had yet to arrive.
Hudson then cut in, "Let's go back and let Belle explain it to you. If it's really Raeleigh's fault, it's still not
too late to come again."
Paige refused to say a word in response. Belle looked at Hudson with an awkward expression. Hudson
pushed Paige away and was about to leave when she finally blurted out, "No... no." Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
She would not budge until she could see Raeleigh that day.
"Mom, let's go back first. I'll explain everything but we can't talk about this here."
With all the fuss going on about her presence here, Belle was afraid that Raeleigh would find out
sooner or later and leave. Whatsmore, Jerry wasn't here to persuade her to stay.
What she didn't know was that Raeleigh was already aware of what was going on outside. Even though
she was currently by Santiago's side, she found out about it anyway.
Both her and Xanthus stood in the room and listened to the ruckus going on outside.
The expression on Xanthus's face became darker the more he listened to the conversation. It boggled
his mind to see Paige could still be so unreasonable at this point.
Truly there were all kinds of people in this world.
The Harvey family was such a wealthy family, why was it that their upbringing didn't reflect that?
Raeleigh stood for a moment longer before she turned and headed back inside to Santiago's bedside.
To her, the fact that Paige came to see her was the natural course of things.
...
Paige failed to enter the Fragrance Garden. She felt that it was because she had become useless that
they would dare bully her. She didn't feel that she was in the wrong at all.
She was so furious that she held onto the wheel of her chair with both hands and glared at Belle with
resentment.
Belle was at her wits end and didn't dare to add fuel to the fire.
"Get lost you... get lost!"
Just as Belle paused in hesitation on how to make her mother leave, Paige suddenly roared in her
face, the strength behind it so explosive it shook her whole body.
Everyone on scene was petrified, even Paige herself was shocked by what just happened.
Paige slowly peeked over at Hudson, who stood as still as a statue. It took a very long time before she
lifted her hand. She placed it in front of her own eyes and waved it back and forth.
Paige broke out into tears as they fell from her bloodshot eyes like a rainstorm, crying loudly for
everyone to hear.
This was the scene that Calvin came upon at first sight, with everyone petrified where they stood.
Hudson slowly parted his lips and he couldn't help but tremble, "Paige..."
Paige raised her head and looked at Hudson. She extended her hand which he grabbed and they both
pulled each other into a hug.
Everyone in the vicinity was stupefied. It took Calvin a long time to recover from his shock. He then
walked towards his parents and said, "I'll call the doctor over."
Hudson parted from Paige and nodded in agreement. He then went to push her back.
Finally, Paige had quieted down.
After the doctor's examination, he told them that Paige was all right. As for what had triggered her fit,
the doctor could not say for certain.
Paige lay in bed in a daze, still in the midst of shock by what happened earlier, until she raised her
hand.
Everyone else was with her inside the room. They observed as it took a while for her to break out from
the dream-like state she's in and react to the present. Does that mean she's better?
Then Paige said that she's hungry and wanted something to eat. Belle went and busied herself in the
kitchen to cook something up for her. When Paige said she wanted to watch television, it would be
switched on for her.
Paige also wanted Hudson to pinch her but how could he bear to do so?
Therefore, Paige pinched herself. It was only when she felt the sting of pain did she know that
everything was real.
After that, Paige laid in bed for two days straight.
...
When Raeleigh heard that Paige could move about again, she couldn't help but breathe out a huge
sigh.
That was good.
It's not that she didn't want her to get well, because it didn't matter whether she recovered earlier or
later, what mattered was what would happen afterwards.
Raeleigh was melancholic. She didn't know when Jepherson would return from his business trip.
She had tried to call him but heaven knows that she lost contact before it could get through, as the
number given was a blank contact.
The moment she realized she couldn't get through, she told Xanthus not to step foot outside unless
necessary, lest they bump into Paige and cause some trouble.
Raeleigh stayed in Fragrance Garden in line with her principle to avoid trouble whenever possible. But
she had never expected that Paige herself would actually come to the garden.
Once she heard about her arrival, she stood up and met her outside.
Paige had brought along a servant. Raeleigh didn't see anyone else, hence she knew that Paige was
here at her own volition. No one, not even Belle, was aware that she came here.
Raeleigh stood outside and closed the door to Santiago's room. She didn't want to let Santiago hear
the argument that would surely break out between her and his grandmother.
And an argument was truly what Paige came here for.
Raeleigh asked Paige, "What can I do for you?"
Paige snorted in cold contempt. "Are you pregnant?"
"Yes."
Raeleigh felt that this wasn't something she should hide. Even if she refused to answer, sooner or later
they would know.
"Whose child is it?" Paige continued to probe. After she recovered, she put on some makeup and
looked a little more lively than usual. The Paige that was in the wheelchair now wasn't the one that was
waiting for death.
Raeleigh replied, "That's only for me to know."
"Is it Jerry's?"
"No."
"You're really a b*tch to be able to do something like this. I always knew that you're not the naive
woman you want people to believe but I didn't expect you to be so shameless."
"That's enough!"
Before Raeleigh could respond, Xanthus couldn't bear to listen any longer. He stepped out from the
room and glared at Paige vehemently.
Paige snorted coldly the moment she saw Xanthus. "Is it yours?"
Xanthus's face turned green at her words.
"Get out. This is our place now. We don't welcome people like you here."
Xanthus didn't want to talk to someone as unreasonable as Paige. In his opinion, it was a pointless
effort to talk any sense into her head.
"This is the Harvey family. You are not qualified to speak here. Now take this woman with you and get
out!" Paige yelled furiously and pointed at Raeleigh. Xanthus was about to spew out his own angry
words but was stopped by Raeleigh.
She looked at him pointedly, "Let's not quarrel here. I want to go in now."
Raeleigh turned around and went back into Santiago's room, Xanthus at her heels.
Once the door was shut, she looked at Xanthus and explained, "We are all outsiders here. The moment
Jepherson returns, we will leave."
"What do you think would happen if you wait, especially with Paige as she is?"
"Then what do you think I should do? I promised Jepherson to take care of him until he comes back."
Raeleigh wore a bitter smile on her face. She didn't feel there was anything wrong with any part of her,
so why did Paige constantly like to find fault with her?
Raeleigh did not emerge from the room whereas outside, Paige hollered at her to get out and when she
didn't she started to curse her out!
Through it all, Raeleigh sat inside without saying a word.
