Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1470

Raeleigh insisted on leaving the next day despite Scarlette's plead for her to stay. Scarlette then asked if she wasn't going to care about the wedding or the bridal photos and all anymore.

It wasn't that Raeleigh didn't care but worried that she would drag Scarlette down.

She had already put Xanthus in danger; she wasn't going to let anyone else hurt because of her.

"Jepherson will take care of your wedding, and I don't know anything. Besides, I'm helping you with something else."

Raeleigh glanced at Jepherson. There was still a hint of affection in his eyes, but Raeleigh ignored it.

"I'm leaving." With that, Raeleigh left with Xanthus, and Scarlette felt helpless about not being able to make Raeleigh stay.

Judging from Mr. Jepherson's grim face, she knew she could've done better.

"Mr. Jepherson."

"I have work." Jepherson walked out and went straight to his car. His look was so cold that even Scarlette was also frozen. She had a feeling tough days were ahead, and she wouldn't be able to count on him for the wedding.

After getting in the car, Jepherson told the driver to start driving. He was in a bad mood. However, when the car was about to reach the company, the driver thought he saw the corners of Jepherson's lips tip up slightly. It was a happy one.

But no matter how carefully he looked, he couldn't see it anymore.

With that, he doubted if he actually saw it, thinking if it was his imagination.

Raeleigh looked out the window after getting in the car, holding her hands from time to time.

"What are you looking at?" Santiago sat next to her. Xanthus was seated in the front with Jacky driving. He leaned close to her, and she gave him a push.

"Did you just push me?" Upset that she had pushed him away, he leaned against the car, angry.

Raeleigh couldn't care less. Feeling a little sleepy, she leaned against the car and took a nap.

It wasn't until the car stopped halfway through their journey that she woke up. She opened her eyes to discover many cars surrounding them, and when she looked ahead, there were even more cars. She assumed there was an accident.

Raeleigh sat up and intended to wind down the window, but Santiago grabbed her hand, leading her to look at him. He said, "Let's wait and see."

Hearing that, Raeleigh put her hands down. Neither of them got out of the car, and Xanthus was extraordinarily quiet.

Santiago asked Jacky, "Are your men close by?"

"We're separated." Jacky was also looking around, but he was sure his people weren't close by.

It was only then Raeleigh realized something terrible was going to happen. Otherwise, the guys wouldn't be this tense.

"My men are also not nearby," Xanthus spoke up, but Santiago didn't seem bothered. He leaned against the car door and took a glimpse outside. Seeing no one suspicious, he turned his gaze back.

"No matter what happens, do not get out of the car." Santiago would never do anything he wasn't confident in. It was dangerous to stay in the car, but getting out was far worse.

Right then, their best course of action was only to keep an eye on the people approaching their car.

Santiago unzipped his coat, pulled Raeleigh over, and pressed her in his arms.

Raeleigh was about to move when Santiago's voice rang. "Stay put."

Only then did Raeleigh stay still. A few minutes later, the car inched forward. She wanted to get up, but Santiago was still pressing on her, not giving her a chance to get up.

After some time, the car stopped, and Jacky said, "Coast is clear."

Santiago let go of Raeleigh and scanned outside before turning his gaze behind. "They are getting bolder; how dare they kill in our territory and broad daylight at that."
