Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1313

Rubbing her forehead, Raeleigh took a closer look at the person beside her, confirming that it was, beyond a shadow of doubt, Santiago.

She pinched herself again. The pain was unbearable. It was not until then that she believed it was Santiago sleeping on her bed.

Raeleigh let her gaze sweep across the room. Only she and Santiago were there.

Raeleigh peeled off the quilt, narrowing her eyes. Santiago was wearing a set of green pyjamas, which amazed Raeleigh. But why was he sleeping on her bed?

Raeleigh was so angry that her face blanched. She really wanted to kick Santiago down the bed, but she thought better of it. It was she who would suffer the consequences if he was kicked.

She had to get out of bed and put on her clothes. In fact, she was fine. She just hit her head and had a few stitches. But that did not stop everyone from making a fuss and bandaging her like a mummy. Raeleigh felt that it was unnecessary. It looked ridiculous.

She put on her clothes and sat on another bed, observing Santiago.

Perhaps, she had committed abominable crimes in her previous life, so karma intervened and she crossed paths with the Richards brothers in that life.

Raeleigh had been waiting for Santiago to wake up, so that she could talk things through with him. She also wanted to tell him that they should keep a distance from each other.

However, Santiago did not wake up. He rolled over and continued to sleep.

It was late at night. Although it was not cold in the ward, Raeleigh needed to rest. In the dead of the night, fatigue would set in. Even if they were awake, sleep would beckon to them again.

Raeleigh called Xanthus but no one answered.

She didn't understand what was going on. Even if he had gone to check on Stuart, he should have come back at that time.

But since no one answered the phone, Raeleigh had no choice.

After sitting for a while, Raeleigh was really sleepy, leaning against the couch to rest.

When she snored, Santiago opened his eyes and sat up. He yawned, lifted the quilt, and got out of bed. He walked to Raeleigh and bent down to hold her up.

When Raeleigh felt her body leaving the couch, she opened her eyes abruptly and woke up. She froze for a moment and she then said, "Put me down."

Santiago looked disgusted. "Stop staying up late, you look like a zombie."

"You're one to talk!" Raeleigh was put down and sat up again.

Santiago stood to one side. "Sleep here while I sleep on the other bed. Take off that long cardigan of yours. Stop dressing up like it's Halloween."

He turned around and went to the bed where Raeleigh had been lying on. Lying on the bed, he covered himself with the quilt and looked at Raeleigh. "Girl, are you waiting for me to bed you?"

Raeleigh couldn't contain her annoyance. "I never knew that you are such a pervert."

Santiago chuckled. "Women are smitten with bad guys. What's wrong with that?"

"There's nothing wrong, but I'm..."

Raeleigh could only swallow the "your sister- inlaw" that had arisen to the back of her throat. She took off her long cardigan, leaving only her clothes on, feeling her chest stuffy.

Santiago moaned in relief. Frowning, Raeleigh said, "The h*ll are you doing?"

The voice was very loud. Santiago raised his hand and stroked his ears. An endearing devil, he looked at Raeleigh and said, "The lady doth protest too much, methinks. I'm only, like, stretching myself. Not every man indulges in fantasies before they sleep, I'll have you know."

"Who said anything about..."

Raeleigh pressed her lips tightly. She was so angry that she clutched the quilt tightly.

Santiago's face was full of amusement. "Oh, Raeleigh, my sister..."

Raeleigh fell silent all of a sudden. For some reason, every time she heard Santiago refer to her as his sister, her icy heart would thaw, as if they had somehow become brother and sister.

"Am I wrong for liking someone?"
