Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1395

Seeing Hadrian, Scarlette's face turned extremely grim. Never in her wildest imaginations had she thought he would appear in front of her and travel-worn at that.

Where he came from was obviously just as cold as the sanatorium as he was wearing a black below-the-knee puffer jacket, with a white sweater and black pants. It was the first time she saw him in winter boots; he looked utterly lifeless.

He was also slinging a black backpack, Scarlette's favorite, on his right shoulder while carrying a handbag in his left hand, Hadrian's favorite.

It seemed that he was not surprised to see her. After putting the two bags down, he walked to her and looked at her with his head low.

"Great, now that your legs are broken, let's see where else you can go." Hadrian gritted his teeth. It seemed that he wanted to rain millions of hatred on her, but he couldn't utter a word, feeling a dull pain in his chest.

Tears fell from her ghastly face thereupon.

Raeleigh looked at Jepherson and wondered if his call the day before was to Hadrian.

Scarlette's cried silently, and Hadrian's eyes were bloodshot, but he didn't let his weak side show and looked to Jepherson and Raeleigh instead. "Thank you, guys. I'd like to talk to Scarlette in private, please."

Not even looking at Scarlette, Jepherson walked out of the room with Raeleigh behind him.

Raeleigh turned to look at the door after exiting. Hadrian had locked it; he didn't intend to let them back in.

Then, she turned to Jepherson and said, "You didn't leave because you were waiting for Hadrian?"

Without a word, he walked toward the exit of the sanatorium. Raeleigh stood rooted to the spot for a while, thinking what was up with him.

Resigned, she followed him. Jepherson didn't walk fast, but just like anyone with long legs, they strode, never waiting.

She thought Jepherson would not wait for her, but it was evident he paced for her to catch up.

However, Raeleigh deliberately strolled, thinking and looking around as she walked.

In the end, Jepherson had to turn around, staring at her from a distance.

Even so, Raeleigh played dumb, taking her time to get to him.

"I'm freezing!" She actually wasn't but still said so. With that, he immediately took off his coat and draped it on her. Looking at her shoulder, she thought his coat was so long that she could wear it as a dress.

After that, he continued to walk ahead. Seeing that he was only wearing a sweater, she asked, "Are you not cold now that you've given me your coat?"

"I'm fine!"

Jepherson glanced at Raeleigh and walked to the exit with his hands behind his back. The car was parked outside the gates, so they'd still have to walk a distance.

With that, she returned the jacket to him and said, "Put it on. I'd have to take care of you if you're sick."

His eyes were bottomless as he glanced at Raeleigh. "You'd still have to take care of me even if I'm not sick."

"Beats having to carry you on my back."

Raeleigh said as she walked ahead. He put on his jacket and followed her to the gates. Midway, she turned back to see that he was slowly catching up.

Seeing that he didn't button up his coat, she pointed at it. "Button it up."

Jepherson looked at his coat and did as he was told, rather obedient.
