Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1208

Cynthia wanted to leave as soon as she arrived downstairs, but she received a phone call from Stuart informing her that he had something urgent he needed to do. He suggested that she spend the night at Raeleigh's. He also informed her that Santiago was busy and that he could not come over to pick her up.

Cynthia was a little confused. She felt that it was inappropriate to ask Xanthus to send her home. After all, Stuart suggested that she stay here for one night. But then again, if she did not ask him to send her home, it meant that she would have to stay here for the night, which was even more inappropriate.

After a while, Xanthus said, "Come on, let's head back upstairs."

"I... "

Cynthia did not know what to say. She hesitated, not wanting to head back upstairs. However, Xanthus was still worried about Raeleigh.

"What happened to Raeleigh's face?" Xanthus suddenly asked. Cynthia then told him what had happened. Talking to him helped to dispel the nervousness.

"I'm not going to lie, but the Richards family is quite the strict family to have one rule after another. Are they thinking of trophy wives more than life partners?" Xanthus sounded angry. He really had not come across a person like Madam Marissa.

Xanthus briefly glanced upstairs and said, "I need to treat Raeleigh's face. Come on, let's head back upstairs first. If you don't want to spend the night here, I'll send you home once I'm done."

After that, Cynthia followed Xanthus back into the house. When Xanthus entered the door, he found that Raeleigh was still sitting downstairs. However, she was surprised to see the two of them when it should have been only Xanthus alone.

She found it amusing that he brought Cynthia back when he was supposed to send her home.

"I'm back, Raeleigh," Cynthia took out her shoes and stood at the door. Raeleigh stood up and asked, "Where is Stuart?"

"He has something to attend to, so he left. He asked me to spend the night here," Cynthia said. Raeleigh then motioned for her to come over to the sofa. Meanwhile, Xanthus brought two eggs into the kitchen. Raeleigh initially thought that he went into the kitchen to make dinner.

Raeleigh was a little hungry since she had not had dinner yet.

However, a few moments later, Xanthus emerged from the kitchen with two hard-boiled eggs. He wanted to roll it on Raeleigh's face to help reduce the swelling.

Raeleigh was a little embarrassed, "The bruise is not that bad."

"Okay, so you want your grandma to see it," At Xanthus' comments, Raeleigh put her hand down. With that, Xanthus sat beside her and started rolling the eggs on her face.

Cynthia calmly watched the two people in front of her. She sometimes felt that they were a perfect match.

Once Xanthus was done, he went into the kitchen and threw away the eggs. He came back and asked the two of them, "Have you guys eaten dinner yet?"

Cynthia and Raeleigh remained silent. Xanthus briefly glanced at his watch before saying, "Let's go out and grab dinner. We don't want to disturb Novalie, do we?"

"I don't feel safe leaving Grandma alone at home. Why don't the two of you go and eat while I stay at home to look after her? Just get me whatever you're having."

Although Raeleigh was a little hungry, she did not mind waiting. Furthermore, she did not feel like going out.

Xanthus glanced at Cynthia. Before she could refuse, Xanthus said to Cynthia, "You heard the lady," Then he turned to Raeleigh, "Don't worry Raeleigh, I'll get you some food."

"Great," Raeleigh stood up and made her way into Novalie's room. Cynthia watched as Raeleigh closed the door behind her before reluctantly following Xanthus out the house.

Then, Xanthus got into the car and drove to the nearest restaurant with Cynthia.

"What do you feel like eating?" Xanthus entered the restaurant and pulled out the chair for Cynthia as soon as they found a table. Cynthia sat down and looked around. It was not too late and there were many people eating. Thankfully, this was a restaurant that was frequented by the locals. She doubted she would meet anyone from the Moore family here.

Xanthus handed the menu to Cynthia and said, "Here, have a look and see what you feel like eating."

Cynthia briefly flipped through the menu and ordered two light dishes. After she finished ordering, she handed the menu to Xanthus. He looked at it before saying, "Leave the fruit salad and change the other one to a steak. I would like a steak for myself as well, and a glass of orange juice."
