Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1059

Raeleigh claimed that she wanted to buy something, but she didn't specify what exactly. Then, she said that she wanted to go out for a walk and didn't want a crowd following her.

Standing aside, Scarlette said with a long face, "You don't want us to follow you, do you?"

That was what Scarlette felt. Her frown intensified.

"Didn't you say that you wanted to live here instead of our dorm? Since you're not going to live in the dorm anymore, you should go back and pack your things. Otherwise, how are you going to move in?" Raeleigh asked. Scarlette suddenly realized that there was logic in what Raeleigh was saying. Scarlette huffed. "You're actually right. I'll head back to school. Serra, please take care of Novalie. Hadrian, come with me. There are too many things to bring over. I can't handle them alone."

Scarlette walked out as soon as she finished speaking. After they were gone, Raeleigh went out with Santiago.

In the car, Santiago asked, "How far along are you?"

From the back seat, it took Raeleigh a while to react. Santiago was asking about her pregnancy.

"Five weeks." Raeleigh was not sure about the specific date, as it was an estimate given by the doctor. If her memory was correct, then it was indeed five weeks ago when she had slept with Jepherson.

"That quickly? Are you sure?" Santiago was curious about the baby. Raeleigh was embarrassed. As the child's uncle, he didn't have to ask all that in detail.

But Raeleigh considered that Santiago was young. He was just curious.

"I don't know," Raeleigh replied. Since it was dark, she couldn't see the pedestrians' faces clearly as the car whizzed by the street. Raeleigh felt her face flush red. She was tempted to get out of the car from the awkwardness of it all.

"Wanna listen to a song?" Santiago asked. Raeleigh thought it over and nodded. "Sure."

Santiago fidgeted around the dashboard and found a playlist. Raeleigh frowned. She couldn't figure out the era of the song that was currently being played.

"What song is this?" Raeleigh couldn't help asking. Santiago answered, "If There's Still Tomorrow."

Raeleigh remained silent. Why was the song titled that way?

They listened to that one song on repeat. Raeleigh leaned against the seat, with lethargy overtaking her once more. When the car finally stopped, Raeleigh was about to fall asleep.

She exited the car and looked around, confirming that it was the former site of the orphanage. Raeleigh took a look around and went to a burger place nearby. She announced that she wanted to eat something, and she then headed inside.

"Supper?" As Raeleigh stepped into the restaurant, a young man approached her. Raeleigh smiled and peeked inside. There were a lot of customers in the restaurant eating away. Raeleigh found a seat and settled in.

"Can we have two burgers, please?"

Raeleigh asked. The host immediately asked with a smile, "Do you want it normal or spicy?"

"Normal would do."

"No spice." Santiago pulled out a chair and sat down, informing the host. Raeleigh glanced at the host and said, "Yes, just like what he said."

"Okay, please wait a moment." The host retreated to the kitchen. Raeleigh looked at Santiago and asked, "Can't you eat spicy food?"

"Pregnant women should not consume too much spicy food," Santiago said. Raeleigh thought about it, and she then retorted, "Well, they say that if you crave spicy food, then your child will be a girl."

"Not necessarily," Santiago suddenly said. Raeleigh checked if there was anyone around before she asked, "Why?"

"There are no daughters in the Richards family." Santiago was certain.

Raeleigh asked in confusion, "You know that your brother has been looking for someone, right?"

Santiago glanced at Raeleigh. "I know."

"Then, how do you know it's not a girl?"

"I just know."

Raeleigh was floored. She couldn't say anything in reply to Santiago.

After eating for a while, Raeleigh noticed that almost all the patrons had left. She then asked the host, "When was this restaurant built?"

Raeleigh was presently nineteen years old. She was ten years old when the orphanage had burned down. It would have taken around seven years for the restaurant to be constructed and become a staple of the area. The people there would most likely know something. What did they know?

The host replied, "Six years. I'll be frank with you, I bought properties here, so everything's cheap.” "Is that so?" Raeleigh smiled. "Then, you're probably not that old. How old are you?"

"I'm thirty-six. When I first came here, it was still in ruins. I bought houses here because it was dirt cheap. Who knew that the housing prices would begin skyrocketing in a few years. Rent here is a few hundred dollars per day. The properties here are definitely profitable."

"Do you have many properties?" Raeleigh asked, giving off the impression that she was envious of him. Opposite her, Santiago was full from the supper. He wiped his mouth and looked at the host with his legs crossed. The host explained, "My sister and I bought the property here, actually. She died in a car accident, so it became mine. For many years, I didn't think about making money. I just wanted a quiet life. I didn't expect to make this much money. Even if I wasn't planning on it, I still made a lot of money here."

While explaining, the host took a chair and settled himself down opposite Raeleigh. Raeleigh found him to be a pleasant person and began chatting with him.

"Your sister is looking after you from heaven, isn't she?"
