Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1000

Raeleigh stepped in, put on her shoes, and looked inside. She saw an unexpected person, stopping in her tracks in confusion.

"Dr. Osteen?" Raeleigh had never expected that Xanthus would appear at her home.

Xanthus sat on the couch, talking to Novalie, who was somewhat surprised to see Raeleigh. "Oh, you're back?"

Raeleigh did not answer Novalie's question immediately. Instead, she looked at Xanthus, who replied, "I came here for work. I didn't expect this place to be your home."

Raeleigh looked at Xanthus in disbelief. "You came here for work?"

"Yes, I'm a volunteer who's responsible for the health of the elderly residents here," he answered. Raeleigh reluctantly accepted his explanation, but she didn't think that was the case. She was reminded of Xanthus searching for a person surrounding the orphanage and inquiring about it.

Raeleigh turned around and took a look at Jepherson, who followed her into the room. "This is Dr. Osteen. He's the university's doctor."

Raeleigh intended to introduce him to Jepherson, but she couldn't think of a way to do that, so she swallowed her words.

Xanthus recognized Jepherson. He stood up and took the initiative to extend his hand towards Jepherson. "Hello, I'm Xanthus Osteen, a doctor from Elkton University. You're Jepherson Richards, aren't you?"

Jepherson glanced at Raeleigh and smiled politely, shaking Xanthus' hands. After the two of them got to know each other, Jepherson withdrew his hand and looked at Novalie.

"Grandma, are you feeling well?" Jepherson walked towards her. He sat down and spoke to Novalie. That gesture showed that he was not someone who was easy to get along with. He did not intend to be acquainted with Xanthus and was just being polite. He had no choice but to shake his hand to avoid leaving a bad impression on Novalie.

Raeleigh forced a smile and looked at Xanthus. "How's my grandmother's condition?"

"She's in good health. Her health is indeed considered good for her age." Xanthus told the truth. Raeleigh nodded and said, "Dr. Osteen, please have a seat. I'll get you a glass of water."

Raeleigh invited Xanthus to sit down, but Xanthus had not finished his work yet. There was a Novalie was not a fool. She glanced at Xanthos from the corner of her eyes. There seemed to be nothing wrong with him. He had always been focusing on the task in front of him, looking calm.

notebook on the table. He took the notebook

and sat at the side while Raeleigh went to fetch

him a glass of water.

But the calmer a person was, the more suspicious he was.

Novalie knew about Jepherson's position as a company vice president in the university. Raeleigh had already told her about it.

That man was a doctor from Elkton University, but he didn't care about Jepherson.

If it weren't for that person's psychological aptitude, then he might have a motive, or he might not even be someone from Elkton University at all.

Novalie smiled and asked Jepherson, "Will you stay for dinner?"

Jepherson smiled and said, "I was planning to have dinner with you. I want to eat beancurd."

"But we still haven't bought beancurd," Novalie replied. Jepherson immediately stood up. "I'll buy it."

"Can you go by yourself?" "It's alright. I've been there before."

Jepherson walked over just as Raeleigh came out.

She thought that Jepherson was leaving, so she

asked him, "Are you leaving?"

"I'm going to buy some beancurd."

Was he really going to buy beancurd?
