Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1374

"You can't even shut up when you're eating."

Santiago gave the best part of the fish, the boneless part, to Raeleigh. With that, she lowered her head and ate, minding her own business.

After dinner, she cleared the table. Just as she was bringing the dishes over to the kitchen, someone knocked on the door.

Raeleigh heard the knock but didn't bother as whoever it was, they wouldn't be looking for her. She was a maid at best there.

The person who entered was silent as he made his way to the kitchen.

"I haven't eaten yet." Raeleigh froze when she heard the voice behind her. She turned around to see Jepherson standing by the door.

"Why are you here?"

"Well, I came by to see what's up."

Jepherson took off his coat and left it in the neighboring room. Then, he turned around, unbuttoned his shirt and rolled up his sleeves before hugging Raeleigh, giving her a kiss.

Raeleigh quickly took a glance at the kitchen doorway and felt relieved to see they were alone.

"What are you doing? Let go of me, or..."

Right as Raeleigh was about to speak, Jepherson wasted no time sealing her mouth with his lips. By the time she registered what he had done, he had already let her go, helping her reheat the dishes as if nothing had happened.

Raeleigh was about to fly into a rage, but seeing Jepherson reheating some food for himself, she took over.

"Go wash your hands."

Jepherson was surprisingly cooperative, doing as he was told.

He ate in the kitchen.

"Why didn't you come over earlier if you hadn't eaten?"

Raeleigh sat beside him, keeping him company. Jepherson stuffed food into his mouth without responding.

Raeleigh was floored, thinking, so be it if he didn't want to answer.

Raeleigh got up and sat down at her spot, waiting for Jepherson to finish his meal before she stood back up.

As Raeleigh cleared the dishes, Jepherson went outside.

Santiago and Jacky were watching TV when

Jepherson switched it off. He sat down beside them and asked, "Has he called back?"

Santiago looked at him. "Mr. Jormen said he would treat me to a meal tomorrow and apologize."

"And how did you put it?"

"I said I was just joking, and I won't actually go."

Of course, that wasn't actually what he said, and Jepherson knew clearly, but he habitually turned a blind eye to Santiago's antics.

"Go and socialize during the meal tomorrow. Also, help me deliver these tea leaves to Mr. Jormen while you're at it. Tell him they're from you."

Jepherson placed the box of tea leaves on the coffee table.

Santiago was peeved. "I won't go."

"Then I'll go."

Santiago huffed.

Although not happy about it, Santiago acquiesced in the end.

Jepherson looked at Jacky. "You want to meddle in the Moore family's affairs?"

"That's the plan."
