Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1198

After breakfast, Novalie went back to her room. She didn't want to interfere with Raeleigh's affairs and left them to solve their own problems. She thought that she should come to her own decision that time.

Raeleigh turned to Santiago and asked, "What in the world do you want?"

"You know very well what I want. Do you really have to ask?" Santiago said. His face was proud and arrogant. Cynthia couldn't bear to watch any longer.

"Raeleigh, let's talk," Cynthia said as she stood up. Raeleigh knew she was not fully recovered yet and did not want to make things difficult for her. So, she followed Cynthia to Xanthus's room.

When they entered the room, Raeleigh pulled a chair over for Cynthia to sit before pouring a glass of water for her.

"How are you feeling?"

"I'm getting better. We haven't seen each other for a day, as you know how my condition is. I'm just feeling a little weak. Otherwise, I am alright." Cynthia's face was pale as she spoke.

Raeleigh said after a moment, "I can't go back with you. Serra can take care of you. I want to stay here and accompany my grandmother. You know me, I don't want to go back."

After spending more than two months together, Raeleigh and Cynthia had become best friends. Raeleigh did not want to elaborate too much and she knew that Cynthia was understanding.

"Raeleigh, I got you into this mess," Cynthia said, feeling a little guilty. She had been a burden to Raeleigh for a month. Right then, she had even come with Santiago to disturb her peace. She knew Raeleigh's character well. She had broken up with Jepherson and there was no turning back for her. It was wishful thinking for them to reconcile. It was a fact that everyone knew.

"Don't say that. You took care of me too when I had a miscarriage. Look at you, the only thing you have done in the past month was to apologize to me. Sometimes, I'm even mistaken that we have only become friends just so you can apologize. You are my friend. There is no need for this."

Raeleigh reached out for Cynthia's hand. She thought Cynthia looked haggard recently and she wondered why. Although Cynthia was recovering, she felt that Cynthia sounded a little depressed.

"No, I should definitely tell you. I am indeed a burden to you. If it weren't for me this time, then

Santiago would not have had the excuse to come and find you. Sometimes, I would rather have him drag you away than to let him use me as an excuse. In fact, everyone knew that what he said was just an excuse, yet..."

Cynthia trailed off as she wasn't sure what else to say.

Raeleigh looked at Cynthia and said, "I know you wanted to help him try to persuade me to go home, but I don't want that house anymore. Furthermore, I need the money."

"Are you short of money?" Cynthia asked. Raeleigh thought for a while and said, "Yes, I am. Once the house is sold, I'll have the money."

Raeleigh had already thought everything through. She remembered that she still owed Zorion money. She wanted to repay him as soon as possible.

Zorion and Deanna had provided help when her hand was injured by Quirina. Now that she has fully recovered, it was time for her to return the money she owed.

"I have some money saved up. If you need money urgently, then I can lend it to you first. The house is roughly worth about a couple million dollars. I should have enough."

"It's alright. I know you wanted the best for me.

But you know about my situation too. I want to sell the house for the money. Besides, I will finally be able to let go of the things in the past and move on."
