Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1568

Zorion walked to the front of the car. Standing outside the car door, he looked at Jepherson who was sitting in a daze. Then, Zorion asked, "Would you like to come down and take a walk?"

Jepherson lifted his gaze to look at Zorion and muttered, "Where did you find Raeleigh?"

"One kilometer away from Green House."

Jepherson was deep in thought, "Does that mean Raeleigh was sent to prison?"

Jepherson clenched his fists tightly as he spoke, his knuckles cracking with each word he spoke. Zorion glanced at Jepherson's arm building with veins and reminded Jepherson, "Things might not be as you think. We have yet made a thorough investigation."

"Yanora's death was too quick. This matter isn't that simple. We've been looking for Raeleigh for a month, so the Moore family must know about it."

"Since they've decided to go all out, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Jepherson turned around and looked out the window before saying, "I want to meet the one in charge of Green House."

Zorion stood still for a while before saying, "We don't know anyone in there."

"Then how did Raeleigh get in?" Jepherson scoffed as he turned to look at Zorion with a slight grin on his face. Zorion couldn't help but feel worried when he saw the grin on Jepherson's face. This was a tactic often used by Jepherson to conceal his pain.

They say that a person at wits' end was the most dangerous. At that very moment, Jepherson looked desperate, which could signify his intent to do anything he wanted, even if it was taking someone else's life.

"Find a way to find out who the current warden is. I want to meet him."

Zorion stood outside and said nothing in response. It was obvious that Jepherson had already shut off all other advice from others.

"I'll try," Zorion closed the door for Jepherson and turned to walk towards his car.

All the while, Hansen didn't get out of the car. Instead, he made a phone call to Zorion, who picked up the phone and explained the situation. Jenna was instantly at a loss.

"Let's wait and see. He won't listen to us right now, so we can only return home."

Stella was still at home waiting to be dealt with.

Right then, Hansen's top priority was to get rid of the past grudges from the previous generation so as not to cause trouble for his sons.

After the couple had left, Zorion left the place as well.

Waiting at the entrance of the village, Jacky got out of the car to look for Jepherson once he had arrived. Jepherson, however, did not wait for him to get to the front of the car and pushed the door open to exit the car instead, informing Jacky, "I won't return today. Thank you for your help."

Jacky was stunned. He stared at Jepherson, who seemed to have returned to normal. For a moment, he was at a loss for words.

Jepherson checked the time and ordered, "Try contacting Santiago and tell him to come home as soon as possible."

With that, he turned around and headed towards Raeleigh's place.

Raeleigh froze upon returning home to find that the house was empty with only piles of bare bricks and tiles laying in front of her. She looked around and noticed Xanthus emerging from somewhere hidden.

Xanthus walked over the moment he saw Raeleigh. He noticed how she was still in men's clothing and knew that something terrible must have happened, so he pulled Raeleigh into his arms.

"It's good that you're back."

Raeleigh embraced Xanthus back and murmured, "Sorry to have made you worry."

"It's normal for me to worry, but it's all because I didn't take good care of you," Xanthus had been blaming himself for what had happened to Raeleigh. If it wasn't because of his determination to seek out Raeleigh, he would've still be bedridden with no life left in him to stand up.

"It's not your fault," Raeleigh led Xanthus go and the siblings walked side by side for some time. Raeleigh was of a few words as Austin was all she could think of. Xanthus asked, "Where have you been these days?"

Raeleigh looked at Xanthus after a long time and sighed, "Give me some time before I'm ready to tell you."
