Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1471

Seeing that she wouldn't put it down, Jepherson took the magazine from her, chucked it into the trash can, and shot Raeleigh a stern look. He sat down on the chair and said, "What happened?"

As Santiago retold the story, Jepherson's face turned even grimmer. He couldn't believe such a thing could happen right under his nose.

Jepherson grabbed his phone and called Colston; he thought it had something to do with the Moore Family.

"Mr. Richards." Colston had also heard about it and had only just returned after verifying the whole incident.

"Have you read the news?" Jepherson went straight to the point.

Colston wasn't dumb; he naturally understood Jepherson's call was to accuse him.

"I just heard; I'm also investigating it. Please give me some time, Mr. Richards. I will give you an explanation."

"I don't need an explanation but an answer. I don't want this to have anything to do with the Moore family. After all, you've promised me."

"If you cause another dispute, we'll have to take it to court."

"Rest assured, Mr. Richards. I understand how important this matter is; let's keep it at a peaceful one."

"Okay, I'll give you two days. If you can't give me an answer by then, I'll do it myself."

"That will be enough."

Jepherson hung up the phone at that.

He turned to Jacky, "Tell your men not to take any action for the time being; they will interrogate outsiders. Tell them to watch their backs, don't get themselves in trouble."

Jacky thought for a moment, then called his people and told them to lay low for a while.

Jepherson called Zorion and told him what had happened.

Zorion was out of town that day, but he rushed back that day.

He was already on the highway and was rushing back to Capital City at full speed.

"Get someone to ask for an explanation from the higher- ups, disassociate ourselves first," Jepherson instructed. Zorion asked, "You want to dig into this?" "That depends on Colston's ability and sincerity. If he can find the person behind, things would be easy to settle; if not, we'll have to make a big fuss."

Zorion agreed and hung up, then called his subordinate to handle it.

"Thank you." Jepherson put down the phone and looked at Jacky. Jacky smiled. "It's my job; no need to thank me."

"I'll treat you guys to a meal later." Jepherson had a purpose, but Jacky was embarrassed to say no. Santiago was his younger brother, so he would naturally agree to it.

Although Xanthus didn't want to, the four of them were basically tied together; they needed each other, so he didn't say anything.

Raeleigh grew more calm and indifferent. Not only did she not refuse, she even grabbed another magazine and read it quietly, all engrossed.

Just looking at her indifference, Jepherson had a false sense that he had screwed up.

Sure enough, Raeleigh refused to eat anything they ordered.

Jepherson sat next to Raeleigh again. Santiago sat next to her at first but changed seats with his brother after a glance from him.

Raeleigh wore a strange expression but didn't say anything she shouldn't have.
