Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1088

"We are friends," Santiago said. Raeleigh stopped and looked at Santiago. "Do friends stay up late at night to talk to each other?"

"Who told you that friends don't stay up late at night to talk to each other?" Santiago knew what to say. Raeleigh was no match for him, so she kept quiet.

After walking for a while, they arrived at a quiet place. Raeleigh suddenly remembered something and asked Santiago, "Where is Deanna?"

"She was taken away by Scarlette."

"Oh."

"You're not allowed to be alone with Flynt next time. Sometimes I feel like you're dumb. You never learn from your mistakes," Santiago said to Raeleigh. Raeleigh said unhappily, "Hey, don't forget that I'm your sister- in- law. I'm two years older than you. How dare you talk to me like this?"

"I really have no idea what to do with a sister-in-law like you. If I could choose, then I wouldn't have chosen you to be my sister-in-law."

Raeleigh froze completely. She felt that Santiago did not think before he spoke, how irritating it was.

Raeleigh turned around and continued walking, ignoring Santiago. She did not even bother looking at him.

To Raeleigh, meeting Santiago was like a scholar bumping into a warrior. She was never able to reason with such a person. She would unable to win an argument with him. There wasn't anyone who could defeat him. She felt especially helpless around him.

Raeleigh had never lost to anyone ever since she was young. Santiago was an exception.

When they arrived back at the campus, Raeleigh found a bench and sat down. Then, she started reading the business book in her hand.

Santiago, on the other hand, was leaning against a tree with his hands shoved in his pockets. He looked up at the sky and enjoyed the warm afternoon sunshine. The warm breeze blew away Raeleigh's hair band, leaving her long black hair flowing in the wind. Her hair gently caressed her face. Santiago closed his eyes while basking in the sun. He looked as if he was asleep. Raeleigh kept on fiddling her hair, trying to tuck it behind her ears as she looked all over for her hair band. After finding it, Raeleigh sat down and continued reading her book.

Time flew past and soon, night fell.

Santiago's cell phone suddenly rang. Only then did he open his eyes and sit down. Raeleigh looked at Santiago calmly and asked, "Were you asleep?"

Santiago did not answer. He took out his phone and checked the caller ID. Then, he answered the phone and brought it to Raeleigh's ear. Jepherson's deep, elegant, and attractive voice came from the other end of the line. "Bring Raeleigh home now. There'll be heavy traffic on the road once it gets late."

Raeleigh frowned and looked at Santiago. She did not answer Jepherson. Jepherson continued on the phone. "Don't drive too fast. Raeleigh has been in a bad mood recently. She gets nervous very easily."

While Jepherson was talking on the phone, Raeleigh began to feel pressured again.

When Santiago saw Raeleigh's change of facial expression, he took away the phone and stood up. He paced in front of Raeleigh and said, "I know. I'll send her right back now."

Santiago put his phone away and looked at Raeleigh. Her face was drained out of color. She sat on the bench in a daze.

Santiago walked over and took her business book away. Raeleigh raised her head to look at him and asked, "What are you doing?"

"I should be the one asking you. What happened between you two?" Santiago asked as his face darkened. Raeleigh stood up and said, "It's nothing."

"If it's nothing, then you should be happy to hear his voice. You would not look this pale."

Raeleigh snatched the business book back and said, "Stop meddling in other people's affairs. What do you know about me and Jepherson?"

Raeleigh held the business book and walked towards the school gate. Santiago followed her from behind. They did not wait for Scarlette. They just got into the car and left.
