Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1003

Jepherson got some rest after comforting Marissa. He lay down but he couldn't fall asleep, so he called Raeleigh. Raeleigh was still awake. She took a quick look at her phone to check who called but decided against picking up. She sent a text message to Jepherson, telling him that it was very late, and she wanted to rest.

Jepherson replied immediately, telling her that it wasn't time to go to bed yet.

Raeleigh got up from the bed, and video-called him for a while. Novalie looked at Raeleigh and said, "You should have attended school today."

Raeleigh said nothing. She wanted to spend more time with her grandmother.

"You're not in good health. I want to stay and take care of you. I can't take care of you if I'm in school all day."

"What's wrong with that? It's not like you never took care of me. I'm in such good health right now. I couldn't bear to see you neglect your studies to take care of me."

Novalie was considerate. She had not done anything meaningful in her life and was not well-educated either.

Raeleigh was her only hope. To see Raeleigh

doing well would be her greatest accomplishment

in life.

It took Raeleigh a while before falling asleep while leaning on Novalie's shoulder. Raeleigh woke up early the next morning. After washing up, she exchanged a few words with her grandmother and went back to school immediately.

As soon as she entered the gate, Raeleigh saw Scarlette waiting for her arrival. She rushed forward at the sight of Raeleigh and marched forward after taking her hand. Raeleigh said sullenly, "Did you know that I was coming back?"

"Mr. Jepherson called a while ago, of course I knew. Santiago is here too. We don't know where he's gone."

There were so many things to talk about with Raeleigh. Raeleigh looked at Scarlette, as she dragged her along. She had no choice but to listen to Scarlette's ramblings about the events that happened in the past few days. She soon discovered about the incident between Deanna and Zorion.

"Are they better now?" Raeleigh was still worried about Deanna. She was not in good health and was malnourished.

Scarlette shook her head. "I am truly impressed by

you. What exactly are you thinking about? Why are you still worried about her?"

Scarlette let go of her grip.

Raeleigh looked at Scarlette. "I'd treat you the same. I'd feel guilty too if I took Hadrian away."

"What did you say? It's not your fault that Mr. Jepherson was the one who initiated to pursue you. Besides, relationships are not meant to be forced."

"Although it can't be forced, it was still partially my fault. Deanna had been nothing but kind to me. I can't imagine the consequences I would face if it were someone else. Deanna and Jepherson grew up together. They could have had a happily ever after if it were not for me."

Raeleigh looked at Scarlette with a poker face. Scarlette kept quiet upon seeing her expression.

"You are too kind." Scarlette continued to walk forward, as Raeleigh followed her unhurriedly. After tidying up the room, Raeleigh said, "I am not going to the morning lecture. I will take a rest here. Go ahead first if there's nothing else. I will go to class directly in the afternoon."

"I'll keep you company. I have nothing to do anyway. I'm worried about you staying alone." Scarlette did not leave. The door was closed and Raeleigh sat opposite her. She fell asleep soon

after.
