Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1013

Deanna waited for a long time before Zorion answered, "Our relationship with Jepherson is not the same as before, especially you. You don't get along well with Raeleigh because of her relationship with Jepherson. You can tell Jepherson about what happened to Santiago. Jepherson may not believe it. Compared to us, Jepherson trusts Santiago, but not you and me."

Zorion didn't want to hurt Deanna, but there were still some words he had to say. Otherwise, her sister would be digging her own grave.

"Why don't you do it?" Deanna looked at him seriously. It might be more useful for Zorion to say it. Even if he and Jepherson held a grudge because of Raeleigh, Jephersom would still listen to him. At the very least, he would believe him, but the question was, was it necessary?

It was strange for Santiago, who had just returned from abroad, to show up out of the blue.

Who knew if it was Jepherson's idea. He put his younger brother in school to watch over and protect Raeleigh.

Scarlette and Hadrian were both Jepherson's subordinates, but Raeleigh was harmed over and over again. That was a fact.

Jepherson must have been anxious. He had no time to take care of Raeleigh, and it was not appropriate for him to reveal Raeleigh's identity, so it was possible for him to call Santiago back from abroad.

Jepherson's temper was something that he was well aware of. To put it bluntly, he was a paranoid person.

Aside from Santiago, perhaps he had never trusted anyone else.

Everything was obvious, but Zorion didn't want to hurt his sister's feelings. He said, "It's inappropriate for me to intervene in this matter. Why don't we wait till the day we meet up with him? I'll remind him, and if Jepherson is willing to listen, then that is the best case scenario. If he refuses, then we can only continue to go on with our lives. But no matter what, we shouldn't be bothered by it. Since we decided to give up, it doesn't matter. Let's go ahead and don't mind them, shall we?"

Zorion tried to coax Deanna. At first, she didn't answer, but when she thought of Jepherson, she still felt somewhat sorrowful. After all, she had a crush on him since childhood. She had always thought that they liked each other. But one day, she couldn't like him anymore and was then replaced. It was really uncomfortable for Deanna to accept it.

Deanna nodded reluctantly and she then said, "Can I be friends with Raeleigh again?"

It took half a day for Deanna to look up at Zorion. Zorion raised his hand and touched her head. "As long as you want to, I think Raeleigh will be glad to accept it, but now's not the time. You have to think it over carefully."

"And there's no hurry this time. Since you and I decided to quit, we won't disturb them. It's their business no matter how their relationship progresses, alright?"

Zorion was still consoling Deanna. Everything he did was carried out in every possible way.

Deanna nodded and said, "Actually, I know this well, but I just can't control my feelings. Zorion, don't you think that Santiago is going too far? What right does he have to hold Raeleigh's hand? Even if Jepherson wants him to do something, he's Jepherson's younger brother. He can't act in such a disrespectful manner. It's improper for men and women to touch each other. Don't you think so?"

The moment she thought of how Santiago held Raeleigh's hand, Deanna was fuming with anger.

"Deanna, tell me, did you treat Santiago this way in the past?" Zorion thought about it very seriously. Although his sister also didn't like Santiago very much, she wouldn't always talk about him. But then, it was different. He had a feeling that she would mention him every day those days.

"The past?" Deanna could no longer remember the past, but she would try to remember the past if she had to.

After thinking for a while, she said, "I don't remember how he was like in the past, and I don't remember how I treated him. But do you remember that when Santiago was a child, he was a playboy? He liked to play around with women. Have you forgotten?"

"Deanna, Santiago is not that kind of person. Although a lot of people say that, it's just a rumor. If Santiago is really such a shocking person, then you're the one who has to be worried. Some passers-by had evil intentions towards your beauty when you were a child, and they wanted to take you away. How could Santiago let go of such a chance?"

"He's not a vulgar person. He disdains most women. I've never seen him seduce any woman. The rumors were wrong, and it's those women who clung on to him. And the truth was twisted when the rumor was spread." "Zorion, how could you say that? Didn't you see how Santiago held Raeleigh's hand?" Deanna was still unsatisfied.

Zorion smiled and said, "I hold your hand every day. There are also people talking about our relationship outside. Have you ever cared about that?"

Deanna widened her eyes. "What? When?"

Zorion laughed and raised his hand to pinch her face. "Don't you think I'd be the first to know if there really are such rumors?"

"It is what it is. I just ignored it."

Deanna pulled a long face. "So what? How can we be compared to Santiago?"

"Deanna, I'm only asking you, do you still have the same feelings towards Santiago in the past compared to the present?" Zorion knew that in the Richards family, Jepherson was the master of the family. But it didn't mean that the second son was easy to deal with.

Children were molded and nurtured by their parents. What kind of person was Hansen? There was no reason to favor the eldest son only and ignore the second son.

Zorion remembered clearly that when he was a child, Santiago was the apple of Hansen's eyes. Wherever he went, he would hold him in his arms. When he was about six years old, he still held him in his arms whenever he got out of the car. It implied that Santiago help a special place in Hansen's heart.

As for why he turned out that way then, there must have been some unknown reason.

Deanna thought about it and said, "In the past, I don't remember, but now that I see him, I'm annoyed."

"Then, why do you mention him all the time?"
