Chapter 1785 Search Party
Having changed her clothes, wearing a pair of black gloves, Raeleigh descended the stairs
leisurely and went to Santiago's room. Entering, she sat down next to Santiago and held his hand.
"I want to tell you something. Deanna has given birth to twins with Jacky. They are named Cedric and
Heitor. Because of the dispute with the Doyle family, Jacky has now been dragged into it. They waited
until Jacky, Jepherson, and Zorion were attending a meeting together to kidnap the twins. I have to go
now, and I'm not certain if I'll be able to bring the children back. So if you can hear me, wake up. I need
your help."
With that said, Raeleigh got up, and Scarlette immediately went to her, trying to persuade her to stay.
"Raeleigh, you can't go. You're in no shape. Have you forgotten how Lucy died?"
"I'll be fine, don't worry." Raeleigh glanced at Santiago, who still showed no signs of waking up. She
thought that could wake him up, but it seemed that he would sleep his years away.
Who could guess if he couldn't wake up or that he didn't want to?
Raeleigh went to the door for Scarlette to chase after her in a hurry. Raeleigh said, "Look after
Santiago. Don't mind me."
But Scarlette continued to chase after her as Raeleigh went downstairs, "Raeleigh, it is too dangerous
for you to do this alone."
"I didn't say I'm going out; I only did it to wake Santiago up. You can't have taken my words for it, can
you?"
Scarlette was speechless that Raeleigh could still joke at this time.
Only then did Scarlette stay in Santiago's room, thinking she wasn't lying to her while Raeleigh went to
Deanna to release her.
The moment Deanna came out, she embraced Raeleigh and burst into tears.
Raeleigh patted Deanna in the back. "There, there."
Deanna left Raeleigh's arms slowly. How could she not cry? Her precious babies were kidnapped.
Raeleigh coaxed Deanna for a while before they separated. She looked at the people sitting in the
living room and noticed Rhys looked like he had aged a few decades older.
Lottie had been crying her lungs out. She was now unconscious, lying on the sofa with an IV drip.
They hadn't even reacted so when Deanna was kidnapped, but this was what was happening.
Raeleigh turned to Calvin and requested, "May I have a few of your men?"
"I barely have any left; they're all with Jerry. Only Aron and Hadrian are here with us. We're
businessmen, so it's impossible for us to take so many people under our wings." Calvin looked at Rhys
beside him, who said, "I have a few. How many do you need?"
"Just a handful will do. The rest should go back to your home."
Rhys couldn't tell where Raeleigh was going with it, but he could see she was no longer the Raeleigh
they first knew.
Mulling over it, he said, "Okay."
"Mr. Aron can't leave. Someone needs to stay to protect all of you. I'm bringing Deanna with me. If the Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
children are released, I won't be able to persuade them to follow me since we're not familiar, so
Deanna must be there."
Rossie said, "I can go."
"Don't even think about it," Raeleigh refused decisively.
"You're pregnant; you won't even be able to save yourself in that situation. They're getting desperate,
and anything can happen at this point. We can't let anyone get hurt."
Raeleigh looked at Stuart as he descended the stairs.
"Stuart, follow me."
Stuart nodded. "Okay."
Raeleigh then turned to Deanna and said, "Call Harvey. He should be in Waverly Village now. Ask him
to bring some men over immediately. We need them too."
Deanna immediately did as told. Harvey rushed over as fast as he could, pulling over at the manor's
gates. A servant immediately came to inform of Harvey's arrival.
"Have him in," Calvin ordered, but Raeleigh said in the next second that it wasn't necessary as they'd
be leaving right then.
"Let's go." Raeleigh headed out, with Deanna catching up right behind. Stopping, Raeleigh turned to
look at Deanna's outfit and said, "Change into sportswear; something easier for you to make a run."
"Okay, I'll be right back." Deanna ran back and quickly changed while Raeleigh ordered the servants to
prepare some food for the children. She grabbed some buns from the kitchen, eating one as she
headed out.
Calvin then followed them out the door.
Belle did too, wrapping her hands around Calvin's arms, weak in her knees. Holding Belle's hand,
Calvin reassured her, "Don't worry. Raeleigh will be fine."
Kept in the dark, Belle looked up at Calvin. "What's going on?"
Calvin did not reply but only held his beloved wife's hand.
Seeing Harvey at the gates, Raeleigh handed the remaining buns to him. "Grab a bite first."
Harvey took a glance and ate them in a couple of bites.
"You're now responsible for Deanna's safety. Do you think you're up for the job?"
Harvey glanced at Deanna and said, "Don't worry, I'll protect her with my life."
"Take Deanna to the Atkinson family's house to wait. Things will be fine there, seeing how the twins are
fine staying with their nanny all this while. That can only mean the Atkinson family is a formidable force.
They can only make their move on the road, so you have to be on high alert. If cars are getting in your
way, run straight through.
The Harvey family had these cars especially reinforced. I've seen the blueprints. The windows are all
bulletproof; you don't have to worry, and the car can't be easily destroyed."
Harvey nodded and said, "Don't worry, Raeleigh, no one can hurt Deanna as long as I'm alive."
"I trust you, Harvey. That's why I asked specifically of you. To Jacky, there's only a handful of people he
can trust, and you're one of them."
"But I don't want to hold another funeral so soon. So, return how you left. Got it?"
"Yes."
"Take another car."
Harvey then quickly went into one of the Atkinson family's cars. Raeleigh gave Deanna a pistol and
asked, "Do you know how to use it?"
Deanna looked at her and said, "Jacky taught me."
"Take it with you, just in case. Apart from Harvey, trust no one unless they are talking to you face to
face, not even if they call."
Deanna nodded. "Got it."
"Wait at home. I will find the twins and bring them to you within a day. They will bring you to the next
step of the plan."
With Deanna's affirmation, Raeleigh stepped back and gestured for the car to leave.
Harvey started the car with Deanna in it and personally took them to the Atkinson family's house.
Raeleigh got in the car, and so did Stuart from the other side, both sitting in the back. The driver was
one of the Atkinson family's. Raeleigh took a gander and asked, "What's your name?"
"Fehmen Lee."
"We'll escort Deanna back. Let's get moving."
Fehmen glanced at Raeleigh in the rearview mirror before starting the car and following right behind.
