Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1429

Raeleigh was completely dazed. Hadrian's mind went blank for a short while before he asked, "Will it hurt?"

Xanthus replied, "All surgeries will hurt, but this one is especially so."

"We won't do it." Hadrian hesitated for a while before turning Xanthus down.

Raeleigh stood to one side. "You should let Scarlette think about it."

"There's no need to think about it. I'm the one making the decisions," Hadrian said. Scarlette rolled her eyes at him. "Are you sure about that? What right do you have to decide for me? Go away."

Scarlette pulled Hadrian aside and his face darkened. "I have the final say in this."

"No, you don't." Scarlette refused, but Hadrian did not succumb to her either.

Raeleigh did not know what to say, but Xanthus said, "No matter what you think, it's not the right time to quarrel. Even if you guys decide to do the operation, she is not in the right state. She will need to be treated for at least six months before she can undergo surgery, so you have plenty of time to think. Also, I charge a high fee." "We need to pay?" When Scarlette heard that, her face fell. They had to pay for the surgery even after he'd eaten their food?

"Xanthus?" Scarlette was truly upset. She looked at Xanthus like he was a monster.

Before Xanthus could speak, Scarlette said, "Raeleigh is your girlfriend now, right?"

Xanthus glanced at Hadrian. It looked like he hadn't mentioned anything.

"So what?" Xanthus asked.

"I'm sure you know that we're good friends. Of course, we'll still pay you for doing the surgery, but you can't just straight out tell us that it's going to be expensive. Am I going to need some kind of super expensive medication or machine? Why do you sound like you're trying to extort us?"

Scarlette was getting so agitated that Raeleigh couldn't stand it anymore.

"Scarlette, Xanthus isn't like that."

"Raeleigh, don't be fooled. Money is all he sees," Scarlette retorted. She refused to allow him to get away with something like this. Perhaps it would even make Raeleigh go back to Jepherson!

Scarlette suddenly felt a little confused and looked at Raeleigh like something had occurred to her. "Raeleigh, I remember you and Mr. Jepherson came to see me together. Didn't you guys make up already? Why are you with Dr. Osteen now?"

Even Raeleigh was getting confused by Scarlette's thoughts.

"I don't even know where to start, so don't ask. Look, we've had our meal, and you and I got to catch up. I'll discuss the surgery over with Xanthus, so you guys talk about your wedding. I'll help you out wherever I can."

Raeleigh looked outside. The day had passed by so quickly.

I m leaving.

If they were to continue on this topic, Scarlette would probably start a fight. Raeleigh decided that it was time to leave in order to avoid conflict.

Scarlette pursed her lips and wanted to say something, but Hadrian had already said goodbye.

When they left, Scarlette threw a tantrum at Hadrian, saying that it was the latter's fault.

Hadrian had a good temperament and didn't get mad at her. He picked her up and headed upstairs.

Scarlette suddenly quieted down, and she stared at the stairs, depressed.

She wanted to live downstairs, but Hadrian wanted her to live upstairs. He said that the masters of the house had to live upstairs.

However, with Scarlette's current state, Hadrian would have to carry her up and down.

Serra didn't have the strength to carry her, and the wheelchair couldn't make it up the stairs. There was no way she could crawl up either.
