Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1006

They waited for more than an hour before Santiago came back with the phone in his hand. He told Jepherson, "Dad said that it was wise to strike while the iron is hot. We shouldn't waste time."

Jepherson put away his phone and glanced at Santiago. "Keep your mouth shut."

"I will, but I can't say for the others." Santiago glanced at Stuart. Stuart was so frightened that he broke out in cold sweat and replied quickly, "Mr. Jepherson, I didn't say anything."

Santiago raised his head with an evil look on his face. "Why do you look so scared if you had not done anything? It looks like your soul has left your body."

Raeleigh was impressed by Santiago's ability to dissect others with words. He didn't even pause nor hesitate. Stuart, who was sitting on the opposite end, became even more frightened.

"Mr. Jepherson, I really am innocent."

"Did I accuse you of anything?" Jepherson's expression darkened. He looked at Santiago and said, "I'll handle the issue of the car myself. Stop provoking."

"Since when did I provoke you? Dad said that ninety-nine cars wouldn't be significant enough. We should make a huge impact in the market while we have the attention on us. Lanox is just the beginning. It cannot end like this."

Santiago was out of breath as he defended himself incessantly. Raeleigh nearly laughed out loud seeing Santiago's reaction. Everyone else was stunned except Raeleigh. They knew they were being fooled by Santiago once again.

Stuart had no choice but to endure the accusation.

"Let's eat," Jepherson said. The dinner was finally about to begin.

Santiago ate the cake before they had a chance to put out the candles. He said he didn't have any wishes, so Jepherson told Raeleigh, "Make a wish in his stead."

Raeleigh was completely stunned. She replied after a few moments, "How could I wish in someone else's stead?"

"Just do it, Raeleigh." Jepherson slid his hand on Raeleigh's waist and patted her. Raeleigh had no choice but to press her hands together and made a wish with her eyes closed. She wished for the health and safety of the Richards family.

Then, Scarlette asked Raeleigh, "Raeleigh, what was your wish?" "Let's eat." Jepherson gave Raeleigh a piece of cake. Raeleigh held a fork and lowered her head to take a bite. She did not answer Scarlette's question.

After the meal, the servants got up and went back to attend to their responsibilities. Santiago said he was getting tired, so he called it a night and headed upstairs.

Raeleigh remained downstairs and continued devouring the cake. She enjoyed it very much.

Jepherson sat down with Raeleigh, admiring the way she ate.

"Let's take a shower at night," Jepherson whispered in Raeleigh's ear. Raeleigh blushed upon his suggestion.

Raeleigh ignored him and continued to enjoy her cake. After she finished, Jepherson stood up and led her to his room upstairs. He closed the door.

Raeleigh stood by the door and observed his room. There was a bed and the room was minimalistic. There wasn't even a computer. As Raeleigh observed, Jepherson bent down and picked her up. He kissed her all the way as he carried her and headed towards the bathroom. He pushed the door open and went in. It was smaller than Raeleigh had expected.

Raeleigh turned around and looked at the bathroom which was similar to her house. "Is this your bathroom?"

Jepherson took Raeleigh to the front of the bathtub. He stripped her off and sat her in the tub. He took off his clothes and asked, "What are you looking at?"

Raeleigh pushed him away. "You lived here when you were a child?"
