Chapter 1762 Motionless
Raeleigh stopped at the corner of the parking lot and stared at Jared who laid motionless on the
ground. When Jepherson turned his head around and saw her, he was momentarily surprised until his
line of sight landed on Stuart. His face immediately darkened, "Take Raeleigh away."
Stuart wavered, then went towards Raeleigh. He intended to bring her back to the ward but she shoved
him away from her.
Raeleigh marched towards Jepherson. When she was in front of him, she only gave him a brief look
before she quickly made her way to Jared's side. At first glance, his body seemed to be fine, but his
pale face stirred up a sense of panic.
"Jared, what's wrong?"
Jared slowly blinked his eyes and gazed at Raeleigh without a word.
Raeleigh crouched down immediately as she gave him a basic examination.
She checked from head to toe until she reached his leg. When Raeleigh touched his right leg, her hand
paused. She then rolled up Jared's pants from the bottom up. On one hand, his leg didn't bleed, but at
the sight of the reddened bruise, she now knew what was going on.
"I'll take you to the hospital." Raeleigh looked at Stuart and asked, "Stuart, can you help me?"
Jepherson stood opposite them and snapped, "Stuart, take Raeleigh away."
Stuart hurried to Raeleigh's side, a pained look in his eyes as he studied Jared's condition. Unable to
look on anymore, he pulled on Raeleigh, "Madam Raeleigh, get up first, with Mr. Jepherson..."
"Stuart, I beg you, please help me."
Raeleigh's face had gotten even paler. He shook his head immediately, "Madam Raeleigh, please don't
make this difficult for me."
Raeleigh pulled away from his grip. "You can go then."
Raeleigh looked at Jepherson as well. "Don't you touch me, either. I will take Jared away today, no
matter what. If you don't leave him with me, then see whether I dare not die on this spot."
Stuart didn't dare to look in Raeleigh's direction again, but he did look towards Jepherson.
What was going on?
Jared raised his hands and pulled on her. "Go, quickly go now!"
Raeleigh held his hands instead and said soothingly, "I was the one who troubled you. I believe in him
too much. I thought he values his bonds of brotherhood, never have I thought he could be so cruel."
Jared shook his head and swallowed a mouthful of saliva. It hurt so much that he couldn't speak.
Raeleigh wore a smile then searched for his cellphone. Hers was still with Stuart.
She dialled Jacky's number.
"I'm in trouble, I'm in the underground parking lot of Charity Hospital. Hurry, my leg is broken!"
Raeleigh then put the phone in her pocket and looked at Stuart, "Give me back my phone."
Stuart flicked a glance at Jepherson before he proceeded to pass the phone to her.
She put her phone away and held Jared's hands tightly. Jared was unable to hold on anymore. He
blinked slowly again, his eyes on Raeleigh as he asked, "Why?"
"I am not a devil nor am I made of stone. There are many things that are clear in my heart. You're not a
ruthless person, and neither am I."
Jared shook his head. "Go... Go away!"
Raeleigh looked to the side, "I won't abandon you."
Jared could no longer open his eyes, his whole body covered in sweat due to the pain. She used her
sleeve to repeatedly wipe them away from his face.
Jepherson asked, "Are you going back with me or not?"
"No."
Raeleigh said without hesitation. She didn't even spare him a look.
Jepherson gritted his teeth and repeated. "Are you going or not?"
Raeleigh ignored him, while Jepherson just stood there, unmoving, with his eyes fixed on her. Raeleigh
constantly wiped the sweat from Jared's face as his eyes gradually closed. She cried out to him, "Don't
sleep. Don't you dare sleep. Your bones are broken and I can't move you. I can only wait for someone."
However, he didn't respond. Raeleigh's hand kept a tight hold on his until Jared passed out from the
pain.
She half-kneeled on the ground as she waited and waited for Jacky's men to arrive.
The person who came was Harvey. Raeleigh heaved a sigh of relief. If it was someone else, Raeleigh
couldn't guarantee that Jepherson would let them go, or if they couldn't stop Jepherson they wouldn't
dare to touch him.
But since it was Harvey who's here, then things were different.
Jacky must know that if she was injured, there were only two possibilities for her not to look for
Jepherson. Either Jepherson broke up with her, or Jepherson was helpless and had no way to help her.
Jacky had to think of these two aspects and could only let Harvey come over.
Harvey first took a look at Jepherson and then he ran towards Raeleigh. He came to a stop in front of
her, then looked at the person on the ground. He didn't seem startled, as if he knew what had
happened. He immediately checked Jared's injury and located the specific location. Harvey then
ordered someone to quickly put Jared on the stretcher. When Raeleigh called earlier and mentioned
her leg was broken, Harvey brought along with him two orthopedic doctors, both of whom she was
familiar with.
Once Jared was secured on the bedding, they fixed up his wound swiftly. They then carried him out
while Harvey waited for her to go together.
"Raeleigh."
Raeleigh looked at Harvey. "Let's go."
Jepherson began to get impatient. "You're not allowed to leave."
Without a hint of graciousness, Raeleigh bypassed Jepherson and followed after Harvey. But the
moment Raeleigh passed him by, Jepherson stretched out his hand towards her to pull her back. She
dodged out of instinct, and Jepherson didn't expect that Harvey would be bold enough to raise his hand
to attack him.
The knife that was in Harvey's hand swooshed down towards his arm, which forced Jepherson to
quickly take back his hand. When he looked back up, Stuart's arm was already wrapped around
Harvey's neck. With just one move, he could take his life.
However, there was not a single shred of fear in his eyes. When Raeleigh looked back at him, she
inadvertently remembered Harvey who cried in front of Logan's tomb.
No matter how weak a person was, through the baptism of time, they would be reborn into someone
fTristaness.
Jepherson clenched his teeth. "Let him go."
Stuart released his hand and Harvey also took his knife back. Only at this moment, he spoke, "Mr.
Harvey, we'll take our leave now."
Harvey turned to Raeleigh and said, "Raeleigh, let's go."
She glanced back at Jepherson, then quickly left together with Harvey.
She followed Harvey into an ambulance which then sped all the way to Waverly Village. The duration of
the journey was usually one hour, but it had been cut down to forty minutes as arrangements had been This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
made and there were no obstacles on the road to hinder them.
When they arrived, two sides of the village had already been cleared up. This enabled the ambulance
to enter directly through the village's opening and head straight for the hospital's entrance.
The ambulance stopped and a group of people who were given the heads up instantly came out and
pushed Jared into the hospital. When they arrived at the doors to the operating room, Raeleigh
intended to go in but was stopped by Harvey. "Raeleigh, you can rest assured that he will be fine."
She looked back at him, "Thank you."
"Raeleigh, you are welcome. Please, take a seat first."
Raeleigh sat down, while Harvey went to look for a doctor, "Give Raeleigh an examination, especially
her hand."
"All right."
Some doctors quickly came up and gave Raeleigh a simple checkup.
At the sight of Raeleigh's hands wrapped up so tightly, they opened it back up and treated it. Once they
determined that it was all right, they moved to the side.
Raeleigh waited outside for nTristany four hours. Finally, the light in the operating room went out.
Raeleigh shot up from her seat and inquired after the doctor.
"How is it?"
"It's okay. The surgery was successful."
As if a burden had been lifted, Raeleigh breathed a sigh of relief, then slumped into a seat, so tired that
she couldn't move.
