Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1364

Jepherson came out from the ward and realised that Raeleigh was following him. He turned around and pinched her chin. She looked at him, lost in her own thoughts.

"You're looking very thoughtful. What are you thinking about?"

"I'm just thinking about what kind of person you are and whether everything that has happened, including Santiago's injury is as what you expected. I've always felt that you are an unpredictable person. Everything seems to be under your control and your goal is to be on top on the world, with many people who are willing to die for you, thus establishing your dominance."

Raeleigh said thoughtfully. Jepherson smiled slightly, "If that's the case, it means that you're the only person who is capable of reading my thoughts. You deserve to be my woman. Shouldn't you be happy?"

Raeleigh pulled a long face. "I'm just speaking the truth."

Jepherson smiled. "So am I."

Raeleigh felt a little unsatisfied when Jepherson retorted. She decided to let it slide and made her way towards the exit.

Jepherson followed Raeleigh and they went back together. Jepherson seemed to be very tired and lay on Raeleigh's bed as soon as he entered the room. He closed his eyes, not wanting to move.

Raeleigh, who was sitting on the other side of the bed, asked, "Did you know about Santiago's injury?"

Humans were quite foolish sometimes. Raeleigh believed that Jepherson's feelings for Santiago were irreplaceable.

Raeleigh knew it was a silly question to ask, but she decided to ask anyway.

However, Jepherson decided to satisfy her curiosity. He opened his eyes and looked at Raeleigh. "He is my brother. I will not do anything to hurt him."

Raeleigh was relieved when she heard Jepherson's answer.

Raeleigh felt a little embarrassed. What did Jepherson's relationship with Santiago have to do with her anyway?

After getting the answer she wanted, Raeleigh stood up and left the room. She made her way into the kitchen to start making dinner.

After Raeleigh left, Jepherson pulled the blanket over his body and closed his eyes again.

Santiago had not come back so she decided to call Jacky that night. She didn't want to call Santiago directly as she was afraid of disturbing him.

It happened that Santiago was sitting beside Jacky, sipping on a glass of wine. Jacky handed the phone to Santiago.

"Are you looking for him or for me?" Santiago immediately asked. Raeleigh suddenly fell silent before asking, "Where are you? Why aren't you home yet?"

Santiago took a sip of wine. "I'm drinking. I won't be coming home anytime soon. You don't have to worry about me."

Raeleigh was speechless for a moment. She was about to speak when he hung up.

Raeleigh stared blankly at her cellphone. Then, she heard a knock on the door. She turned around to find Jepherson standing by the door.

"What are you doing here?"

"Am I not allowed to be here?" Jepherson smirked slightly.

Raeleigh shook her head. "Of course you are."

After entering and sitting down, Jepherson told Raeleigh, "Santiago came by the office the other day to discuss about your proposal. Here, have a look. He made some amendments."

Jepherson handed the proposal to Raeleigh. She briefly looked through it and was quite surprised. "You're going to have to sacrifice a lot by doing this."

"It's not a big deal. We might also need to send the helve after the hatchet. Santiago never takes anything seriously. However, if he means business, I doubt we have a chance at all."

The corner of Jepherson's mouth curved upwards. Raeleigh couldn't tell what he was thinking.

"Then why are you smiling?"
