Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1507

The next morning, Raeleigh asked Jepherson, "Aren't you leaving? Didn't you say you have a lot to do in the company these couple of days?"

"I'm not leaving today; I'm going to buy some groceries later."

"What for?"

Raeleigh watched him button his shirt in the room and put on her brother's wool sweater, looking like a family man before coming out to hug her from behind. She turned her head around to look at him and asked, "What's up with you?"

"Santiago will be back in a bit. I'll cook."

"You're cooking?" It wasn't that she didn't believe in Jepherson's cooking, but that she didn't understand the sudden change of plans.

"Are you sure?"

"I'm sure."

Raeleigh got out of his embrace, turned around, and put on Xanthus's loose cotton-padded jacket. She took her wallet and put on her shoes. Standing by the door, she said, "Let's go."

Taken aback for a moment, Jepherson then walked toward her and put on his coat. He took a look out the door; seeing that Santiago wasn't in sight, he accompanied Raeleigh to the market to buy some ingredients. This time, they got Santiago's favorites.

"I don't like this."

Raeleigh pointed at the vegetable and said. However, Jepherson took out his wallet and paid the vendor. Without raising his head, he said, "These are not for you, but Santiago."

Raeleigh put the vegetable in the basket and helped carry their purchase.

Jepherson gave his wallet to her before turning around to get more ingredients.

Raeleigh followed behind Jepherson. "Do you regret marrying me?"

"I will never regret marrying you." Jepherson turned to look at Raeleigh, bowed his head, kissed her, then turned back around and continued shopping.

Raeleigh froze for a moment and nearly dropped the wallet in her hand. Only then did she look around to find everyone was busy; no one cared what she had done.

Jepherson walked ahead and bought some shrimps. Raeleigh didn't need to ask to know that they were Santiago's favorite too.

After they were done grocery shopping, Raeleigh asked as they walked, "Other than women, is there anything you two won't share?"

"Underwear."

Raeleigh was rendered speechless.

And she didn't say anything after that.

When the food was ready, Raeleigh stood at the door and looked around. "Are you sure he will come back even if you didn't give him a call?"

However, Jepherson didn't reply but only continued to cook the shrimps.

Raeleigh thought he did not hear her and went back to ask again, but he still ignored her question.

She looked at the time, and it showed two. "He's not here yet."

"He's busy. He'll come when it's time. There's some dough.; I'll make pizza."

"You know how to make pizza?"

"He loved pizza since he was a child, but he doesn't like the ones the servants make at home."

"I bet he just wants to see you busy in the kitchen." Raeleigh stood at the door of the kitchen, looking amused. Looking at Jepherson, she understood Xanthus's behavior toward her. They weren't any different; they would do anything for their younger siblings.

Raeleigh was watching him when someone came in. Surprised, she thought Santiago had indeed come but only to find it was Xanthus when she turned around.

"Xanthus, you're back."

Xanthus changed his shoes and put down his medicine kit. "Unhappy to see me?"

"Of course not."

Raeleigh went to him and took his coat to hang. Meanwhile, Xanthus glanced at the food on the table. "What are you guys celebrating?"

"Nothing." Raeleigh didn't know what to say, and Xanthus didn't press on, nor was he surprised to see Jepherson cooking when he went to the kitchen. Though he thought it was rather strange to see Jepherson in his clothes.

"I'm going to take a shower," Xanthus said and went to the bathroom. Raeleigh was walking into the kitchen when she heard movement at the front door; she took a look to find it was Santiago in a puffer jacket, changing his shoes at the door.
