Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1201

As soon as Santiago left, Deanna began to discuss the money with Rossie. According to Santiago, as long as either Deanna or Rossie accepted Raeleigh's bank card, it would mean that Raeleigh no longer owed the Whalen family any money.

"Rossie, you have to give them back the card. If money is all you need, then I can give it to you. Let me go get it from my purse," Deanna said as she pulled Rossie's hand worriedly. However, Rossie replied, "I need this money. Your brother initially promised to give me a sum of money once we found you. He also promised that he would send me abroad, but he broke his promise. Not only was I not allowed to leave, he even forced me to sleep with him."

"Deanna, if it were you, then would you be willing to stay?"

Deanna was caught off guard by her question. She stared at Rossie for a long time before saying, "Even if it is so, you can't accept the money. I will ask my brother to give you back the money, alright?"

Rossie shook her head. "No, please don't. You know very well that your brother wouldn't allow it."

But..." "There's no but. Deanna, please help me. I'll make sure to return the money to him in the future," Rossie said as she held Deanna's hand. Deanna wavered slightly. She was a soft-hearted person. She turned around to make sure that they were alone before she said, "You have to think this through. If my brother finds out, then I'm not sure if he will..."

Deanna raised her head and looked up at the sky. Zorion liked Rossie and would never harm her. Deanna suddenly had the courage and she nodded firmly. She said, "Don't worry, I will not tell my brother. If you marry Zorion in the future, then whatever belongs to the Whalen family shall belong to you as well."

She smiled as she finished her sentence. On the other hand, Rossie was worried about her naivety.

"Deanna, there's nothing wrong with being the way you are but always keep in mind that you should not trust anyone so easily. This is how you were kidnapped the last time. You may be lucky once or twice, but not more."

Deanna nodded. "I know. You don't have to worry about me. I've learnt my lesson. I will not run away anymore. I will listen to my brother's advice. I will not go out without his permission."

Rossie looked at Deanna for a moment before saying, "Your brother can be so bossy sometimes. He wants everybody to follow what he says. Doesn't he understand that we're humans too? He cannot lock us up at home as if we are his pets."

"You're right. He doesn't even allow me to go to university. People my age are supposed to be in school, but instead, he wants me to stay at home. I am sure my parents will be angry if I were to tell them."

"Then, why don't we tell your brother that we want to start attending university? He can follow us if he wants." Rossie had already thought of a way to make her escape. Deanna thought about it and immediately agreed. She hurriedly dragged Rossie into the house. Deanna was much braver with Rossie around. She dared to say things that she previously did not.

Meanwhile, Zorion was upstairs reading a book. Rossie had read it before, so he wanted to have a look as well. He was not concerned whether Santiago and the rest had left or not.

To like a person was one thing, but it did not mean he could possess her.

Now that Zorion had Rossie, his emotions became inexplicably calm. He was slowly getting over his feelings for Raeleigh. He had never thought that it would happen.

Zorion turned to look at the door when he heard the door open. Deanna entered the room with Rossie, whose face was ruddy, behind her. As soon as Deanna entered the room, she shouted, "Zorion, I want to go to school. I shouldn't waste my time rotting at home."

Zorion looked at Deanna and Rossie who were standing in front of him. He glanced at Rossie before looking at Deanna. He tapped her head with the book in his hand. "Is that it?"

"Yes, and Rossie wants to go to school too," Deanna immediately said. Zorion was stunned for a moment before asking Rossie, "Have you graduated from high school?"

"Not yet." Rossie was really interested in attending college, but she did not even graduate high school. Therefore, she had never placed any hopes in it.
