Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1044

Now that Raeleigh had received the ring and the bracelet, a sense of unease crept up on her. Even though she had expressly informed Jepherson that she was not after fame and fortune, his proposal somehow caught her off guard. She felt that he was rather self-serving in that he did as he pleased and did not consider her feelings.

In other words, as long as it made him happy, he would go public with their relationship.

A few people could be seen sitting in the living room on the first floor. Raeleigh was sitting beside Jepherson while he was chatting with Santiago. Raeleigh stood up and went upstairs. Since she would not be returning to her home, she went upstairs to have a rest.

She wanted to collect herself too.

A few moments later, Jepherson went upstairs. As soon as he went into the room, he saw Raeleigh looking pensive as she fell into a daze.

Jepherson closed the door and walked towards Raeleigh. He wrapped his arms around her waist. Then, he lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "Are you mad at me?"

Raeleigh shook her head. "I was just thinking that you'd probably regret your decision a few years down the road," she said. "You aren't exactly sure how things will pan out too."

"Granted, there're lots of things in life which are beyond our control," Jepherson said. "But that doesn't mean we should give in and not fight for our lives. I mean, you wouldn't have fallen in love with a scaredy-cat, would you?"

Raeleigh laughed. "You jokester. I realize you are getting funnier by the day."

"Well, men are naturally wacky," Jepherson said. "It' s just a matter of who they want to show that side of wackiness to." At that moment, Mr. Hansen crossed his mind. He reckoned that his father best embodied the spirit of wackiness. Hence, he could not help but to quirk his brow as he thought about this.

He then lowered his head and kissed Raeleigh. Raeleigh did not avoid his kiss. She put her hands around Jepherson's shoulder. Jepherson held her by the waist with his left hand and pressed her back with his right hand.

Raeleigh blushed and pushed Jepherson away. Jepherson looked at her with a pair of eyes that were full of affection. He then bent over to carry her.

"Silent, lest somebody overheard us," Jepherson said. He seemed to have said that on purpose. Raeleigh blushed. She bit her lips and glared at Jepherson.

"He must have said that on purpose," she thought.

Jepherson clearly knew that Raeleigh had been worrying that somebody would overhear their conversation. Yet, he reminded Raeleigh to stay silent. Hence, Raeleigh was convinced that he had said that deliberately.

Raeleigh got up early in the morning and went back to the university campus alongside Santiago and Scarlette. As soon as she arrived at the school, she found out that a new female student had just enrolled in the school and that she was related to the Moore family. However, she had no idea which member of the Moore family had enrolled their daughter in this school.

That girl was a certain Xandra Moore. She had a lovely name.

Word got around that she was one beautiful girl who had stellar academic results and that she had gone through a few rounds of examinations before enrolling in the school.

"Not another member of the Moore family," Scarlette said. "Raeleigh, why are the Moores practically everywhere?" Amused, Raeleigh said, "I don't understand why you are making such a fuss though. Aren't you tired of whining?"

Scarlette snorted and said, "No, I'm not."

Santiago was strolling with his hands in his pockets. Raeleigh gazed at his back. She seemed to be very fond of green shirts, particularly grass green. She reckoned that she would be able to pinpoint Santiago's location effortlessly at Elkton University as long as he was clad in this shade of green.

Clad in a grass-green shirt with hair that could be easily styled, Santiago looked like an average Joe as he strolled in a carefree manner. Hence, Raeleigh could not understand why the onlooking ladies were spellbound when they laid their eyes on him.

" If Santiago says anything now, then the girls would go to great lengths to please him," she thought.

Raeleigh reckoned that love was not as powerful as charm. Some people had such a charm in them that they could enthrall and enchant everyone.

"The Moore family is one big family," Santiago said. "The men would marry seven wives. Each wife would give birth to two children. It's not surprising then that the Moores are everywhere."
