Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1035

Raeleigh raised her head after groaning in pain for a while. They were standing opposite each other. Santiago furrowed his brows and gave her an indifferent look as he waited for her to remove her hands off her forehead. Nonetheless, Raeleigh showed no signs of wanting to let go. Santiago then walked towards her. She was still holding her forehead. Irritated, Santiago then grabbed hold of her arms as he lowered his head to stare at her.

Santiago was stunned as Raeleigh glowered at him. It was not that her gaze was frightening. Rather, it was because he noticed that there were bruises on her forehead.

Santiago knitted his brows repeatedly and said, "Hey, it was just a flick."

Raeleigh stood motionlessly. She was alright, merely feeling a painful sensation on her forehead.

Santiago glanced at Scarlette. She knew something was amiss. However, she didn't dare to walk towards Raeleigh.

"Can you stop fooling around?" Raeleigh said.

Santiago clasped Raeleigh' s arms. He then glanced at Scarlette and said, "Get the doctor."

Just as Scarlette left, Raeleigh said, "I'm alright. Why the h*ll did you get Scarlette to call the doctor though?"

Santiago thought for a moment. He then grabbed hold of his smartphone, tapped the camera application, and handed it to Raeleigh to take a selfie. She was astounded as she looked at herself.

"Is that a bruise?" Raeleigh asked, with her face turning pale.

It had been a forceful flick. That explained the intense pain she felt.

Raeleigh sat down and returned the phone to Santiago.

"I'll be staying over to look after Deanna for the next few days," Raeleigh said. "I guess your brother won't be dropping by." Sitting cross-legged, Santiago asked, "What do you mean?"

Raeleigh glanced at Santiago and said, "Don't you ever do that again lest you land yourself in trouble."

Raeleigh felt that Santiago was lucky to be living in the modern era, for he would be deemed a bane in ancient civilizations.

Santiago was amused. Leaning against the wall, he put his hands in his pockets and squinted as he raised his head. "Well, it’s not my fault then.

Your skin is too tender to begin with. Had it been thicker, you wouldn't have had bruises."

Raeleigh was absolutely speechless. As she looked at Santiago's troublesome face, she wanted to give him a beating.

In the end, she resisted the urge to do so.

She glanced at Santiago before directing her gaze towards Zorion and Deanna. Zorion had woken up. He remained in the intensive care unit as he did not want to leave Deanna alone.

Soon after that, Scarlette came in alongside a man in his forties. He was holding something. He hurried to check on Raeleigh. "What kind of hard object did you knock into?" he asked as he looked at her forehead.

Raeleigh glanced at Santiago contemptuously. "Is he considered a hard object?" she asked.

As the doctor bandaged the bruises, he informed that she should stay out of the water and that she should be alright in a few days' time. Then, he left.

After the doctor left, Raeleigh rested for a while. She then stood up and looked into the intensive care unit. Deanna had not woken up. Zorion had been sitting quietly and showed no signs of wanting to leave her.

Raeleigh accompanied him for the better part of the day. She continued keeping him company after having her dinner. At that moment, Santiago's cell phone rang. He handed it to Raeleigh.

"Answer the call," he said.

Raeleigh took the cell phone and answered the call.

"Hey, I’m here, where are you?" Jepherson asked calmly as he walked. Raeleigh looked at Santiago. She had not expected that he would be here so soon.

After a few seconds, she said, "I'm in the fifth ward."

"Which level?"

"At level six."

Jepherson then hung up the phone and asked Stuart, "Are you sure it's here?"

"Yeap."

As Raeleigh returned the phone to Santiago, she looked at him and said, "You're gonna be in deep sh*t."

"Well, it's not that I did it on purpose," Santiago lied.

"Well, then. Explain yourself to your brother," Raeleigh said.

Raeleigh then took a seat. She crossed her arms as she fell into a daze. On the other hand, Santiago could be seen sitting cross-legged. His expression was one of indifference.

It did not take Jepherson long to reach level six. He walked out of the elevator as it reached level six. Soon after, Raeleigh looked at the elevator, and she saw Jepherson making his way to the fifth ward.

Jepherson was glancing around as he looked for the fifth ward. After a while, he saw Raeleigh. As he walked towards Raeleigh, she stood up.

"What happened to your head?" Jepherson asked as he gently knitted his sword- like eyebrows. Scarlette remained silent.

Jepherson then turned around and looked at Scarlette. Immediately, Scarlette lowered her head. "This has got nothing to do with me," she said. "You've got to ask Mr. Santiago."

While Santiago was thinking, Raeleigh said, "It was an accident. I knocked into the corner of the door. It almost tore my skin. I reckon I'll be alright, but Santiago insisted that I should see the doctor." Jepherson raised his head and glanced at Santiago. He smirked as he was amused. Remaining as cool as a cucumber, he did not look at Jepherson.

Jepherson thought for a moment before reaching out to pull the gauze gently. "Damn, that's serious. Do you fancy a place six feet underground?"

Raeleigh was startled. She looked at Jepherson and wondered how he knew Santiago was the one who injured her.
