Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1600

After Jacky left, Raeleigh looked at the teen on the ground. Several people came in and took him away, and his parents also left Raeleigh's place.

Raeleigh was still breaking out in cold sweat. Xanthus put a quilt on Raeleigh and helped her lie down on the sofa.

It was the first time Xanthus had seen someone break out in a cold sweat because of sadness.

After giving Raeleigh an injection, Xanthus sat down. Raeleigh said after a long silence, with her eyes closed. "I don't know why, but I don't have anything to say, yet I'm in shambles when I think of Santiago."

Xanthus looked at Raeleigh, who was lying beside him and said after a long while, "All's well that ends well. He'll be fine; the medical is so advanced now."

Raeleigh shook her head. "No. He isn't decent. Though he isn't a villain either, he's deviant. Jepherson had led him astray. Though he isn't bad, he still hurt people; he would do anything. He's just nicer to me."

"Don't get ideas into your head. No matter how bad Santiago is, he can't be worse than Flynt. And

Flynt's still fine."

"His time hasn't come. When it does, he won't be able to escape."

Raeleigh turned over, facing the sofa, and curled her body. She was like a neglected street child in the cold world, helpless and alone.

Xanthus was her brother, after all. Even if his heart ached for her, he couldn't do anything but only console her, "Don't overthink it. Everything will be fine."

Raeleigh said nothing but only lay motionless.

When Callis and Leander returned, Raeleigh had fallen asleep. Xanthus looked up at the two of them and said, "Since Jacky believes in you, he must have looked into your background. I trust your identities. You two share a room."

"It's fine, I'll sleep on the sofa outside, and Callis can sleep on the ground," Leander said bluntly. Xanthus said, "We have a spare room. It's safe for you guys to live here; nothing will happen."

Xanthus took a glance at his sleeping sister, then at Callis. "Thank you!"

Callis merely looked at Raeleigh and didn't answer.

Leander said, "Since you're okay with it, well stay in the room. Call us if anything."

With that, Leander went to the spare room, but Callis was still looking at Raeleigh. Xanthus said, "She's fine now. You can go in."

Only then did Callis go into the spare room.

Raeleigh had a restless sleep that night. Santiago filled her dreams. She was even somewhat lost when she woke up.

Raeleigh only retreated to her room after she got up in the morning and came out to eat a little after resting the entire morning. After lunch, she went to look for Jacky, and he happened to be heading out of the village. Raeleigh wanted to follow; Jacky only agreed after giving it some thought.

But he did not let Callis and Leander follow.

After she got in the car and asked Jacky about the updates from the Green House, Jacky said, "My men have infiltrated, and he has asked around, but all of them had their lips sealed tight. They would say they don't know anything and even have never seen the person you're looking for at all."

"It's impossible. I was there for some time. If there really is no such person, how can I not know?"

Jacky looked at Raeleigh from the rearview mirror. Raeleigh realized her words were faulty, so she said after a moment of silence. "I know this matter is suspicious, but I have no other choice. I know I'm not crazy."

Jacky continued driving, "I know you're not."

"Thank you."

"I'll bring you to the Green House for a look. The warden's away today."

The reason Jacky left Waverly Village was, one, to take a look inside the Green House, and two, to visit Deanna and their children.

Since Raeleigh wanted to tag along, he agreed.

They had the same purpose one way or the other.

Raeleigh didn't expect to see Jepherson's car parked by the Green House.
