Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1330

After Xanthus left, she began to take care of Jepherson. Although there was not much to do, she didn't get a wink of sleep at night. After all, she was looking after a patient with a high fever.

In the morning, Raeleigh fell asleep leaning against the bed. Jepherson got up and opened his eyes, looking at Raeleigh. She was exhausted all over. He raised his hand and touched her. Then, he continued to lie down.

Raeleigh woke up to Jepherson staring at the roof. Sitting for a while, she raised her hand and touched Jepherson's forehead. She finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Jepherson raised his hand and held Raeleigh's. "I don't think death is all that terrible. On the contrary, I feel so warm that it wards off the cold. Do you know why?"

Raeleigh froze for a moment, trying to pull her hand back, but she was held down by Jepherson.

Staring at Raeleigh, Jepherson said, "It's you. You're the source of the warmth!"

Raeleigh said sarcastically, "Yeah, right."

"It's enough that I believe it. I won't impose it on you." Jepherson smiled and loosened Raeleigh's hand. "I'm famished."

"I'll grab you something to eat." Raeleigh left and got Jepherson a bowl of soup.

Jepherson sat up and stared at his own hand in a daze. Raeleigh came in and gave him a bowl of soup. Jepherson had a cannula stuck in his hand, so he drank the soup with his movements restricted. Raeleigh watched him for a while and sat down on the bed. "I'll feed you."

Jepherson handed the bowl to Raeleigh, waiting to be fed. Raeleigh fed him, spoonful after spoonful. He began to cool down as he ate.

He was eating when he said, "I have found another child. I will go and see him later. Would you mind accompanying me?"

Raeleigh paused for a while upon hearing what Jepherson had said. Her gaze settled on his face. "You don't know when to quit, do you?"

Jepherson just looked at Raeleigh without saying anything. Raeleigh hesitated for a long time. "Santiago told me..."

Not waiting for Raeleigh to finish her words, Jepherson immediately interrupted her. "I know. To have fallen from such a high place, anything could happen to normal people, let alone a pregnant woman."

Raeleigh shut her mouth and said nothing.

Jepherson continued, "So, I always think it will be a miracle if I could find the child."

"You know that the child has..."

"I've been looking forward to it for so many years. If it weren't for me, then my mother wouldn't have fallen from the cliff and the child would be like you, having a good brother, right?"

Raeleigh remained silent for a long time, unable to answer Jepherson's question. She said, "Even so, you have been looking for her for so long, but you haven't found her. When are you going to stop?"

"When there's a will, there's a way."

"You are crazy, that's what I think. Santiago was right. You know the child is dead. You are just guilttripping yourself and withholding that forgiveness."

"But don't you think it's ridiculous?"

"No matter what happened in the past, you were kidnapped. As your mother, it was normal for her to risk everything to save you."

"Okay, there was a lovely life growing in her belly, but in the eyes of your mother, you were the only one. The flesh in her belly was one with her. She could bear her fetus getting harmed, but she could not bear any harm that comes to you."

"No matter what your parents think, they haven't told you the truth. You should not be tied up by this matter anymore. You have to know, your parents love you, and they love the other child, too."
