Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1452

After leaving the Moore family manor, Rossie kept touching her hand. Zorion fixed his gaze at her but couldn't tell what she was trying to do.

When they got home, Rossie immediately went back to her room, switched on the computer, and began looking up information on the internet.

Zorion held the tea bags in his hand, then handed them to Tetsuo. "Check the ingredients inside and see if they are poisonous."

Tetsuo accepted the tea bags and got down to it.

Zorion showered, then changed into a new set of clothes and lay down on the bed, needing a rest.

Suddenly, the door swung open. Zorion twitched his eyebrows but did not open his eyes.

Rossie entered the room and walked to him, "Are you asleep?"

He opened his eyes and stared at her. "What's up?"

"Does your stomach feel upset?" Rossie asked, and Zorion shook his head. Then, she continued, "I asked Louisa, and she told me to try massaging."

Zorion did not speak but only laid in bed, unmoving.

"I'm going back to college soon. We should give it a try," Rossie suggested.

She sat down and lifted the blanket, then placed her hand on top of his stomach, his pajamas the only barrier between them. Then, she found the spot Louisa taught her and pressed down on it tentatively.

Zorion closed his eyes. It had been some time since lunch, so he wasn't in discomfort.

After massaging Zorion for a while, Rossie said, "Louisa said it would be better if we use a hot compress."

Zorion did not reply. Rossie lifted her head to look at him only to find him already asleep.

She withdrew her hand, then turned around and went downstairs. She came back with a hot-water bottle and placed it on Zorion's stomach before tucking him in.

After sitting on the bed for a while, Rossie got up and looked outside the window, then left. Louisa had told her that she was depressed and lacked exercise; she believed she would sleep well again if she exercised and drank the floral tea.

Rossie didn't want to rely on Zorion to be able to fall asleep forever. She wished to be able to sleep alone.

If she could recover from this, it would be a huge

relief.

After dealing with his matters, Jepherson visited Santiago and Raeleigh at the hospital. Before entering the ward, he heard Raeleigh lecturing Santiago while Santiago remained silent, keeping his eyes closed.

He knocked on the door and walked in, leading Raeleigh to look over and get up. When she saw Jepherson, she asked, "Have you eaten?"

"Not yet," Jepherson answered, his eyes darkening as he glanced at Santiago. When he noticed Santiago looking at him with one eye open, he said, "You got yourself into trouble at the start of the new year. You're still not repenting?"

"How can I not repent? My eardrums are rupturing already." The moment he woke up that morning, Raeleigh had been lecturing him non-stop. After some time, he gave up listening, not having a clue what she had said, and his mind was muddled.

Santiago began complaining now that Jepherson was lecturing him.

Jepherson put down his coat, then washed his hands and sat down. Raeleigh had already gone to take the food.

Setting down the food on the table, Raeleigh handed the cutleries to Jepherson, then sat down and said, "The doctor said it would take two months for him to recover."

Raeleigh was upset because of this matter.

Jepherson took a bite of the food and looked at her. "He asked for it."

After she had calmed down, she thought something was amiss. It seemed as if Jepherson was here to settle scores with Santiago.

Jepherson ate quietly as Raeleigh remained silent. Xanthus went out and hadn't returned, while Santiago also fell silent.

Later, when Raeleigh cleared the table, Jepherson looked at Santiago and said, "You dare to test me?"

"What?" Santiago refused to admit what he had done.

Jepherson sneered. "Do you want me to force you to admit it?"
