Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1108

Raeleigh sat there in her house, thinking about Jepherson accompanying Santiago to make a proposal. After she mused over it for a while, she tucked into her breakfast.

Raeleigh was planning to take a stroll in the backyard after she was done with breakfast. However, as soon as she exited the house, she was met with Deanna and Zorion getting out of their car. Deanna hurriedly ran over to Raeleigh when she spotted her. Tugging her hand, Deanna asked, "Raeleigh, I heard that you guys went to the sea?"

Raeleigh turned around to look at Scarlette. Scarlette was very disdainful. How could Raeleigh think that she was the one who told Deanna?

Raeleigh turned around and looked at Zorion. Then, she glanced back at Deanna. "I wanted to eat mackerel, so we decided to head out to sea to catch some."

Raeleigh's answer was tactful. Deanna, after thinking it over, asked, "I heard that there were other people besides you, Jepherson, Scarlette, and Hadrian?"

Raeleigh nodded her head and did not give any

further reply.

Deanna's tears were about to pour out as she said, "Does this mean that Santiago has a girlfriend?"

Raeleigh froze. Deanna could not hold back her tears any longer. Raeleigh was at her wits' end when she thought of what Deanna said. She was stuck in a difficult position.

Zorion held his younger sister in his arms and comforted her. "It's alright. Don't cry."

Zorion hugged his sister and coaxed her while looking Raeleigh up and down. He looked at her as though he was scanning her for any unusual signs. Raeleigh felt unsettled.

"Why don't you take Deanna into the house?" Raeleigh relented when she saw Deanna crying. They couldn't stand outside all day. Hence, she kindly invited the two in.

However, she immediately regretted it. What was she going to say when they asked her where Santiago had gone?

As expected, as soon as Raeleigh sat down, she heard Deanna ask through choked sobs, "Where's Santiago?"

Her tone was a little demanding. It gave one the impression that it was an interrogation, making them feel ill at ease. To Scarlette, it sounded as though she was going to pick on Raeleigh.

If Deanna went after Scarlette, then she would tolerate it. However, when it came to Raeleigh, Scarlette would not let it slide.

Scarlette, who had been standing quietly at the side, plonked down on the couch opposite Deanna upon hearing the tone of her voice. Looking displeased, she asked Deanna, "What's with your tone? What? Is Raeleigh your nanny? Is she supposed to watch him for you?"

Zorion's expression darkened, but he did not fly into a rage. However, his eyes gleamed with an unpleasant shine.

Regardless of whether the person was right or wrong, no one could scold his sister.

Raeleigh tugged Scarlette's hand and said, "It's none of your business. Why did you have to stick your nose into this? This is between me and Deanna."

"Who's doing the talking? You or her? You are too naive. She... only knows how to bully you because you're an easy target. Furthermore, she has Zorion, who thinks he's so great. So, what if he has a sister? His sister is human, and you aren't?"

"They always come knocking on your door when they have a problem. Do you think that they are here to catch up with you? No! They're here to interrogate you. They blame you if something's up with Santiago. Why the h*ll are you going to take the blame?"

Scarlette roared at Raeleigh furiously. Raeleigh raised her head and looked at Scarlette, "Did you have a nightmare last night?"

The question left Scarlette speechless. She stopped and returned to sit in her corner, not wanting to say anything further.

Raeleigh looked at Deanna and said, "Scarlette has been a little worked up these past few days. Don't pay any mind to her."

Scarlette stood up and left without saying a word.
