Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1392

When Raeleigh and Scarlette reached her room and were about to enter, they heard Deanna moaning, and Raeleigh's face flushed in an instant, then pushed Scarlette in the opposite direction. "What a nuisance," Scarlette huffed.

Raeleigh lowered her head to look at Scarlette and suggested, "Where's the cafeteria?"

Scarlette looked up in turn. "Can you not be so corny?"

"Am I really that corny?"

Raeleigh rolled her eyes at Scarlette and went to fix her blanket, worried that she was feeling cold.

"Yes. So corny that... that..."

Raeleigh burst into laughter at Scarlette's upset.

"Now tell me where the cafeteria is; I feel cold."

"Up ahead, but it isn't a cafeteria; it's a restaurant," Scarlette said while rolling her eyes.

"What's the difference?"

"How are they the same?" Scarlette refuted, but Raeleigh didn't want to argue further. She pushed her to the restaurant and had their lunch there, then brought some food back for the two lovebirds. Raeleigh suddenly felt pressured; what if they weren't done yet?

Biting the bullet, Raeleigh walked toward the room and saw Jepherson standing right outside the door. She was stumped for a moment before she pushed Scarlette over. On the other hand, Scarlette panicked, afraid for Jepherson to see her, but she had nowhere to hide as it was already too late.

Standing face to face, Jepherson didn't react much when he saw Raeleigh, but the same couldn't be said when he saw Scarlette.

"What happened to you?"

His voice was cold, and Scarlette immediately lowered her head, not daring to speak.

"I'm asking you a question." His voice wasn't loud, but it was sub-zero, enough to pierce Scarlette's heart. Terrified, her hands began sweating, still not daring to look at him.

Meanwhile, his face only grew colder by the second. After a long time, he looked at Raeleigh and said, "You say it."

Raeleigh took a glance at Scarlette before telling him everything. After hearing the whole story, he clasped his hands behind his back, closed his eyes, and drew deep breaths.

Then, he turned around, went to Scarlette's room, and pushed the door open. Raeleigh's heart pounded, horrified, and subconsciously looked into the room. Inside, Jacky was sitting in front of Deanna until he saw Jepherson and stood up.

As there were many people outside, Deanna rushed to close the door. On seeing Raeleigh and Scarlette, she called them in.

Raeleigh pushed Scarlette into the room. After closing the door, Deanna patted her chest hastily, repeating, "That was a close call!"

Raeleigh stood at the door, unable to wrap her head around the fact that the Whalens were a shrewd and capable bunch, but Deanna was the exact opposite.

"Come here now."

Raeleigh felt a little strange when she saw Jepherson making a call, but he only spoke once before he hung up immediately.

Something would happen to him at some point; there was no way he'd be unscathed. Moreover, being the president of a company, he would be bound to have a plan. But whoever Jepherson called, Raeleigh didn't ask.

After pushing Scarlette into the room, Raeleigh took the food from her and set it down. "I didn't know you were coming; why didn't you call me before you came?"

Aggravated, Jepherson said, "You didn't call to tell me you wouldn't be going back."

In other words, he was upset.

Disconsolate, she thought he was unreasonable, sulking over such a small matter.

She only let it slide, seeing that he was still a patient who hadn't recovered completely.

"Eat some then. The food should be enough for the three of you; if not, I'll get more."
