Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1042

Johan was perceptive enough to know what Jepherson was trying to convey. Nonetheless, he did not bother responding to his remarks.

Otherwise, he would have fallen right into his trap.

Nonetheless, he knew that Jepherson would not leave unless the Moore family came clean about what they had done.

Jepherson then glanced at Santiago and said, "Well, since our visit isn't welcomed, let me be frank and tell things straight from me then. We'll leave afterwards."

The old butler glanced at Johan before directing his gaze at the two siblings. He had a feeling that there was more to what Jepherson said. He had only just scratched the surface.

"Old Master hasn't been well," the old butler said. "The doctor has told us that his memory is deteriorating. He would need to rack his brains to recall what has happened."

The old butler glanced at Johan as he spoke. However, he remained silent.

Jepherson smirked. "Well, so the butler is apparently the one calling the shots in the Moore family’s household."

Immediately, the old butler said, "It was the doctor. He told us about it. I did not make that up."

Irritated, Santiago said contemptuously, "What the h*ll are you saying?"

Jepherson did not bother telling Santiago off for being rude. The old butler was silent at that moment. “It's clear that they're up to no good," he thought.

"Yesterday, Santiago told me that he has fallen in love with a girl," Jepherson said. "I didn't take his words seriously then. However, he went so far as to assert that he would marry this girl, and only this girl. Well, I was still a little doubtful and decided to shrug him off. This morning, to my surprise, he told me that he wanted to propose to the girl. It was then that I found out that the girl is Cynthia."

Johan was not provoked. "What's with a brat audacious enough to want to marry Cynthia?" Johan thought.

"Did he now?" Johan said. Being blunt, he did not bother if he sounded insensitive. He then snorted and gave Jepherson a piercing stare.

"Granted that he's a little too young for her," Jepherson said. "But he makes up for it by being honest." "Well, all your geese are swans anyway," Yousif said while he was sniggering. "My daughter's too good for that son of a b*tch," he thought. "He's bloody underage yet he fell for my daughter."

"Santiago's a nice guy," Jepherson said. "It's just that he has an unconventional approach to life. I'll bring this up to my Dad. Hopefully, he'll be able to return home to help out. Anyway, it is my wish that the Moore family would give Santiogo and Cynthia their blessings for this marriage. After all, it is customary for two lovebirds to tie the knot. It is a happy occasion for both families."

As soon as Jepherson was done talking, the old butler said, "Mr. Jepherson, Miss Cynthia is 23 years old. May I ask, how old is Mr. Santiago?"

Jepherson forced a smile as he looked at the old butler. "I suppose it is none of your business," Jepherson said. "You aren't a member of the Moore family, are you?"

The old butler blushed. Then, he said, "I didn't mean to be meddlesome."

"Enough said," Jepherson said. "We don't want to make a fuss about it. That isn't the reason we’re here in the first place anyway."

"Old Master, I don't think age is a problem," Jepherson said. "In the meantime, Santiago would mend his ways. If the proposal materializes, then I' m sure that it’ll be great news for Capital City."

Feeling pleased, Santiago could be seen shaking his legs while Jepherson was talking.

Johan directed his gaze towards Santiago, who was looking smug. Yousif was tempted to give Santiago a hard slap.
