Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1554

"Hello, Mr. Richards and Miss Raeleigh." Colston came to have lunch when he saw the Richards family's car outside. He paid attention after entering, and sure enough, Raeleigh and Jepherson were inside, so he came over to greet them.

Raeleigh had met them before, so she stood up.

Louisa cracked a smile. "Long time no see."

Raeleigh saw that Jepherson had also stood up.

"What a coincidence."

"Indeed. But we're bound to meet sooner or later. I've been looking for a chance to talk to you, but who would've thought I'd bump into you here."

"I'm not following," Jepherson replied bluntly.

Colston didn't intend to beat about the bush either. "I wanted to talk to you about your conflict with Flynt."

Recalling he had gone to the countryside to look for Flynt some time ago, Jepherson said indifferently, "If it's about this, you'd better save your breath. No one can touch my woman. He had hired people to harm her so that he could play the damsel in distress game. Wouldn't I be a coward if

I don't step in when he's relentless?"

Colston smiled awkwardly. "Mr. Richards, I'll be handling this affair. I hope you can give me a chance to sit down and address it with you. Maybe there's a turning point."

"No need for that. I believe I've told you I won't cross the line as long as your family doesn't mess with me."

"Mr. Johan is a venerable man and the big shot of Capital City; as a junior, I'll certainly respect him."

"But that doesn't mean I'll turn the other cheek."

"Raeleigh is my woman, and I won't let just any men get close to her. Even if I am a beggar, I still have dignity."

"You're right, Mr. Richards, but Flynt had already lost an arm for it. He's now a cripple who's watching over our ancestral business in the countryside. Why should you bother yourself finding fault with him?"

"If he stays on the rails, I won't find fault with him. However, he's notoriously vicious. He instructed his men to kidnap Raeleigh in the hospital, and I still have the proof. He did appear at the scene to rescue her, but I'm sure if I continue investigating, his doings won't be as simple as just giving some instructions to the kidnappers." "He had both guns and knives. What if Raeleigh was hurt?" "I won't allow it to happen again."

"Your meal is on me. We've had ours. Mr. Colston, enjoy your lunch."

Jepherson strode away. Raeleigh wiped her mouth with the napkin and followed him out.

Louisa turned to look at Raeleigh, calling out, "Bowie."

Stumped for a split second, Raeleigh did not turn around but continued ahead instead.

Raeleigh reacted very quickly as she believed Louisa was not Brisa. Brisa had already passed.

Leaving the restaurant, she headed straight into Jepherson's car. Jepherson gazed at her. "Why do you look so pale?"

Raeleigh raised her head slowly as her eyes fell on him. "Louisa called me Bowie just now."

Her words got him stumped for a second. He knew Raeleigh changed her name once when she was in the orphanage; it was Bowie.

"How did she know you were Bowie?"

Raeleigh shook her head. "I don't know either, but she called me intentionally when I followed you out. It seems she's probing me."
