Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1138

"Deanna, did they bully you?" Zorion's body turned stiff before he put on any clothes.

Deanna shook her head furiously.

"Don't cry. Did you forget what you've said when you were little? You said that you would only cry in front of me."

Zorion had actually forgotten about that matter a long time ago.

He thought of it all of a sudden that day. He hoped that Deanna would be able to stay strong without him around.

Deanna sniffed and felt extremely aggrieved. She sat on the floor and cried like a child, wiping the tears off her face with the sleeves of her torn clothes as she said, "Zorion, I've learnt my lesson. I'm all grown up. It must have been hard for you to take care of me. I should not have run out of the house. It's all my fault that I wasn't sensible."

"I promise that I will not run away again."

When Deanna thought of the consequences of her running away from home, she felt uncomfortable all over. Tears streamed down her face. Jacky, who was standing beside her, suddenly kicked her.

It wasn't hard, but it caused Deanna to stumble a little. She turned around and looked at Jacky through her teary eyes. Even Jacky was mesmerized by her.

Deanna's nose was red at that moment. She took a deep breath and remembered that she hadn't eaten yet.

"Zorion, could you please give them the money? I still have to compensate them for killing their chickens and poisoning their dog. They saved me, and I'm well-fed here."

"I know. Tell them that I'm willing to give him however much he wants. Hand the phone to Jacky." Zorion's eyes were a little red, but his voice remained calm.

For Zorion, it was his family fault's that Deanna was not independent. They could not blame anyone else for the way she turned out. They were willing to have her turn out that way.

Others neither have the right to comment about it, nor should they care about it. There wasn't a need to change anything as long as Deanna was fine.

Deanna sniffed as she handed the phone over to Jacky. Jacky took the phone over and said, "Speak."

"Please do not hurt my sister. I can give you whatever you want. Money is a small matter. You also have a family. I know that by calling me, it means that you have no intentions to hurt Deanna. A couple of days ago, I went to Waverly Village to look for my sister. I had no intention of hunting you down. I want to find my sister, that's all."

Zorion raised his hand to wipe his tears away. He had never had a calmer tone.

"Transfer five million dollars in instalments to my bank account to cover for your sister's food and clothing. I'll assure you that your sister will be safe. We'll talk about the rest later."

"Fine, give me your account number and I'll immediately transfer it to you."

"You're a straightforward person. I won't fight with you. Waverly Village is my territory, and I'm aware of your presence. I also know about your spy, Rossie. Logan is my best friend. You ought to take her away. Otherwise, I'm not sure what the consequences would be."

"Fine, I'll ask her to leave. I'll transfer the money to you right now."

"Do you have anything you want to tell your brother?" Jacky looked at Deanna. Deanna immediately grabbed her phone and said, "Zorion, I don't like this set of clothes. Could you please get me some decent clothes?"

"Alright, I get it."

"Thank you."

There was a brief moment of silence.

After Jacky took the phone back and ended the call, Deanna turned around to look at him. Jacky put the phone away and stared at her for a moment. He gestured for her to come over. Deanna took a step forward and knelt down.
