Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1146

Raeleigh entered the lecture hall and realized that there was a newcomer that day. Hadrian had entered the hall, and he was sitting in the last row, right behind Scarlette.

Raeleigh had no idea what had happened between Scarlette and Hadrian as they were there before her. However, Raeleigh knew that they must have had a fight, since she could feel the tension between them.

As soon as Raeleigh took her seat, she immediately switched her focus in preparation for class. However, midway through the lecture, she felt a little uncomfortable, so she decided to leave the class earlier. Thus, leaving Santiago's sight.

Raeleigh went to the restroom in order to avoid arousing Santiago's suspicion. As a result, when she emerged from the restroom, she found Santiago standing outside, leaning against the wall. He only left when he was sure that Raeleigh was alright.

"You don't have to follow me. Nothing will happen to me in the restroom." Raeleigh wanted to meet Xanthus, so of course, she had to avoid Santiago, but he kept following her. She found it very annoying.

"You don't want me to follow you? Why? Do you have a secret meeting to attend to?" Santiago proceeded to walk ahead with his hands in his pocket as he asked Raeleigh. Raeleigh raised her head to look at him. "What secret meeting? Who else can I possibly meet in private besides your brother?"

"Like me, for example." Santiago turned around to face Raeleigh and walked towards her. He forced Raeleigh to stop, and only then did she stop.

"I don't care what you want to do, but you'd better give me a heads-up. Otherwise, I will not take any responsibility if you make a fool of yourself." Santiago observed Raeleigh for a while before turning around to leave.

Raeleigh hurriedly followed in his steps and informed him, "I do have something to tell you, but it's related to my identity, so I can't tell you."

"I know more about you than you know about yourself. How can I not know your background?" Santiago snorted. He did not even turn around to look at her.

Raeleigh did not know what to say. She felt like such a fool when she was around a smart alec like Santiago.

"What do you know?" Raeleigh asked cautiously. Santiago stopped and turned to Raeleigh.

"Everything."

Raeleigh remained silent and pondered for a while. Then, Santiago turned around and called out to Raeleigh. "Come here."

Raeleigh lifted her head and looked at Santiago, who was quite far ahead of her, so she had to approach him.

They left the building and made their way to Xanthus' infirmary. Santiago stopped and turned around to look at Raeleigh. "I'll wait for you here."

Raeleigh froze for a while before walking towards Santiago. She raised her head and looked at him. "How is it possible that you know so much?"

"If you don't want people to know, then you shouldn't do it. There's nothing in this world that I don't know. The whole world knows that if an adult falls from such a high place, then it's a miracle that the adult is alive, not to mention the child in the womb."

"Later, my father recalled that when my mother fell down the cliff, her belly must have hit something. I feel that even if the baby managed to survive, it would probably be paralyzed. It's impossible that nothing happened to the baby."

"Although you're somewhat stupid, you're not paralyzed."

Santiago's words shocked Raeleigh. What he said was true. Even if the baby was indeed alive, it was impossible for the baby to be entirely fine. That was to say, the baby had most probably died, but...

Raeleigh looked at Santiago. "But he has been searching for so many years, hasn't he?"

"You also know that he has been searching for so many years. Everyone knows that this is a sore subject for him. At that time, my mother went there for his sake. We did not expect her to fall off the cliff. Her temporary disappearance nearly ruined our entire family. My father nearly lost his sight in the process of searching for her. With such an incident, how much of a blow did his heart suffer?"
