Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1393

Raeleigh changed a new set of sheets for Jepherson, ignoring that he was acting like a king. When she was done, she called him over, and he went to lie down without taking off his shoes.

The others were still in the room, and Raeleigh didn't know whether he did it on purpose. Regardless, she didn't know how to react to what he did.

However, she still took off his shoes and placed them on the ground before tucking his feet in like she was serving a master. When Raeleigh was done, she turned to look at him only to find his eyes already shut.

Deanna pulled Raeleigh away warily, "Raeleigh, you treat Jepherson like this. He has gone too far, and he's not a child either. Why should you take off his shoes?"

"He's tired."

Raeleigh had always thought nobody would understand her feelings. If she decided to love someone, she could give everything.

It didn't mean that she'd be lowly. In fact, she was glad; at least she was able to accept and to love. Better than what Scarlette was doing.

She thought Deanna was holding on to too many fixations while Scarlette's insistence was absolutely meaningless.

Apart from life and love, perhaps a simple life was what they needed.

It would be better if they did not compete or hold back.

"But you still can't do that even so. Zorion will take off his shoes no matter how tired he is." Deanna felt bad for her. Raeleigh looked over at Jacky to find his head lowered, carrying a hint of ridicule.

He tugged on Deanna and said, "C'mon, I'll take you to another room."

"There are people outside. Maybe we should go at night." Deanna was genuinely fearful. Who knew if her father did it on purpose? What if her father didn't? What if they were caught?

"It's okay. I had a look just now. The people outside are far away; they can't see us."

He had indeed done a quick check, but he wasn't sure if Rayan knew he was there but purposely sent his people away or that Rayan didn't want to disturb his daughter and had them only stationed outside. Jacky faced a little trouble coming in, but he didn't see any of Rayan's men after coming in.

Deanna blinked. "That's more like it."

After that, Jacky took Deanna away. Raeleigh closed the door and looked at Jepherson, who was fast asleep. It looked like he did not rest well last night.

She then turned to check on Scarlette; she was also fast asleep.

There were only two beds in the room. Raeleigh moved the curtain in the middle away so that it'd be easier for her to take care of the both of them.

The table still hadn't been cleared, so she got down to it, bringing the plates and cutleries to the bathroom to clean with hot water before putting them aside. Seeing they were still fast asleep when she came back out, she sat down at Scarlette's bed to warm her feet.

But just as she sat, Jepherson called to her, "Come and sleep."

With that, she got up and filled a hot-water bottle, and put it under her feet to warm them up. After tucking her in, she went to lie down next to him.

The bed was a little small for two; she laid down on her side, facing Scarlette, while he turned over and held her in his arms, the two of them snug underneath the covers.

Resting her head on Jepherson's arm, she said, "I want to bring Scarlette back to my parent's place. Don't tell Hadrian about this for now."

Jepherson had his eyes closed as he said nothing.

She then added, "Everything takes time to adapt."
