Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1308

Seeing him, Zorion turned around and flopped down on the couch, holding his ground.

After sitting down, Zorion coughed twice and wiped his mouth with a tissue. He looked up at the person who came in through the door.

Tetsuo walked up to Zorion first. He stopped and said, "Mr. Zorion, Miss Deanna brought a friend with her."

"I heard you."

Zorion's expression was less than genial, but he held back his cough.

"I've fulfilled what I promised." Jacky stood there, with his hand still tightly gripping Deanna's.

Zorion caught a glimpse of Deanna's hand and felt funny. They were twins indeed. They both fell hard when it came to love.

"Deanna, go upstairs with Scarlette and get some rest. Allow me to have a word with Jacky."

Concerned, Deanna turned to look at Jacky.

"Why don't you go ahead?" Jacky patted her shoulder and released her hand. His other hand pulled the luggage over and with his eyes on Tetsuo, said, "Please, sir. These are the clothes I prepared for Deanna." "I'll deliver it right away." Tetsuo pulled his luggage and turned to go upstairs.

Deanna glanced at Jacky before turning around to walk up the stairs.

As oon as she entered her room, Zorion turned to look at Jacky. "Have a seat."

Jacky scanned the surroundings and sat down. Zorion exhaled heavily. "I'll protect Deanna with all my might. Now, it looks like someone is targeting the Richards family and scheming against Jepherson. Stuart is Jepherson's right hand man. His accident shows that these people have already begun to plot a comprehensive plan. They don't care if they've been discovered by Jepherson at all. I'm not in the best of health, and I may be hard-pressed to offer any help. Seeing how much you want to walk through h*ll, you do it."

Jacky nodded. "I hope you don't go back on your word. Protect Deanna."

"You have my word."

Jacky stood up and shot a glance upstairs. He turned around and left the Whalen family residence. Tetsuo descended from the top floor and personally sent Jacky out.

After Jacky left, Zorion lapsed into a coughing fit yet again. He continued to sit there, unmoved.

Rossie sat at the side, looking at him. He asked Rossie, "Have you ever felt a little bit of heartache towards me? Even a little?"

Rossie said, "Who would ever pity an abuser?"

Zorion's pale lips curled up. "I see, I've always been an abuser to you!"

Zorion stood up and walked upstairs, his every step accompanied by coughs. He didn't even bother to pick up the clothes that had slipped off his body. Yet, he checked to see if Rossie came with him and helped pick his shirt up. However, she didn't budge an inch and just continued watching TV.

Tetsuo came back and saw the clothes on the ground, and he then saw Zorion upstairs. He hurriedly walked over, picked up the clothes on the ground, caught up with Zorion, and put them on.

Turning around, Zorion looked at the old butler. All of his expectations had crumbled.

Zorion forced a smile and nodded. "You should take a rest."

Tetsuo nodded and agreed. Zorion glanced at the indifferent Rossie downstairs, turned around, and walked upstairs, gripping the railings of the staircase. When he arrived at Deanna's room, he opened the door and went in.

Deanna was still sitting there. When she saw

Zorion, she sprung to her feet. Zorion looked at Scarlette.

He said, "Scarlette, go out first and help me look after Rossie downstairs. I need to talk to Deanna."

Scarlette walked to the door, went outside, and closed the door.

Seeing the door close, Deanna said, "I only ever wanted to protect my baby."
