Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1373

Raeleigh knew that she was unable to keep Santiago in line, so she allowed him to do whatever he wished. Instead, she looked over at Jacky and asked, "You were looking for me because you wanted to talk about Deanna?"

Jacky did not reply. Raeleigh turned around and placed the fish on the counter, "Actually, I've been trying to get in touch with Deanna. I can only think of one other person who might be able to help us."

Jacky frowned slightly and asked, "Who?"

Raeleigh glanced over at Santiago, who was fiddling with a cucumber. She snatched it out of his hand and put it aside.

"New years is just around the corner. Besides Zorion, the only other person I can think of who can bring you to Deanna is Auntie Jeanna."

Raeleigh had pored over the matter for quite a while. In the end, the only person she could think of was Jepherson's mother.

Raeleigh had no idea how the cucumber ended up back in Santiago's hand. He took a bite of it and said, "Yes, my mom can bring you to see her. It seems like the Whalen family have decided to keep the baby, which means that you still have a chance. The question is, how will you grasp it?

Everyone knows how powerful the Whalen family is in Capital City. You need to be on par with them in order to stand a chance. Yet you're not willing to make use of your connections with my family. That means you have to come up with another solution."

Santiago turned around and said, "The three most dominant families in Capital City are the Richards family, Whalen family, and the Moore family..."

"The only way I can ask Rayan for Deanna's hand in marriage is if I replace one of the families." Jacky was not a fool. He understood the importance of the matter.

However... too many things had happened, and he was chained down.

"That's right."

Santiago took another bite of the cucumber and began poking at the fish. "Which family are you targeting?"

Jacky stood at the door of the kitchen and thought it over. "It's impossible for me to defeat Jepherson. I know that if I provoke one of you, it means I pick a fight with the entire family. It's impossible for me to fight alone. Even the Whalen family would not sit back and watch. Right now, I don't have enough money to contend with your

family."

Santiago raised his head and smiled. "As long as you know that. Our family is indeed wealthy. I have not heard of any others, whether in or out of Capital City, who can compare to us.

"That's why my target isn't the Richards family."

Jacky knew that very well.

"Even if we were, I doubt you would turn against me, for the sake of our friendship."

"You've seen right through me. What else can I say?"

"If you don't have anything to say, then don't say anything."

Santiago smiled nonchalantly. "So your next target is..."

There, Santiago paused. "The Whalen family is the leader of the underworld. I think..."

"There's no way I'll challenge the Whalen family."

Jacky cut in frostily, to which Santiago laughed. "I mean, you're also in the underworld. If you're not planning on targeting the Richards family and the Whalen family, does it mean you'll go after the Moore family?"

Jacky's brows furrowed deeply. "The Whalen family has already given me half of their territory. If I continue to vie with them, it'll be equivalent to forcing them out. I'd never do such a thing. So what if I have power? I rather have Deanna than power."

"Well said. Then again, if you don't have anything to your name, do you think Rayan will trust you with Deanna?"

"I can't force it if he doesn't trust me."

Santiago's eyes were full of contempt as he glanced at Jacky's lower body. "You mean you can't force it on Deanna?"

Raeleigh suddenly felt that they had derailed from the original topic. She pretended to be busy.

Jacky smirked. "I can go into more detail. Would you like to hear more about it?"

Raeleigh felt goosebumps all over her body.

"Forget it. I'll find out myself."

Raeleigh blushed furiously. Was this what men usually talked about?

It was no wonder kids were turning out so bad these days. They must have learned it from TV or something.
