Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1605

After they were home, Raeleigh sat on the sofa and listened to Xanthos ramble on about Hansen's decision. She didn't bother explaining as she knew it wouldn't matter, so she only listened.

"Call Hansen; I want to give him a piece of my mind. What the hell are they thinking? They're not going to punish the evildoer but vent their frustrations on a fool like you?"

Livid, Xanthus shoved his phone into Raeleigh's hand, but she put her hands behind her back, not taking it.

Hence, Xanthus made the call, but Raeleigh said, "I volunteered to take care of Santiago. He wouldn't be like this if it weren't for me. Stella hurt Santiago because she wanted to get revenge on me. Now I have a thorn in my heart that can't be pulled out."

"But still..."

"I want to take care of him," Raeleigh said nonchalantly.

Xanthus felt a pang in his heart and stood silent.

Just then, Callis returned, standing at the door. Seeing him, Raeleigh looked at Xanthus and said, "Let's talk about it tomorrow. I'm going out with

Callis."

Worried that Xanthus would continue his rambling, she went to Callis, opened the door, and pulled him out.

Out the door, Raeleigh breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Callis and asked, "You haven't been around all day. What have you been doing?"

Callis glanced at Leander, leading him to say, "I have a stomachache; he went to get some pills for me."

"I'm sure Xanthus has some; you should talk to him. I want to go out with Callis; we'll be back in a bit."

With that, Raeleigh pulled Callis. "Let's go."

Callis took a look back at Leander before walking away with Raeleigh, and she took him to the walled houses.

Raeleigh planned to buy a new house, so she told Callis her ideas while he merely walked with her, silent as always. When she was tired from all the walking, she asked his opinion on which house he thought was good. Callis answered this time, pointing at a walled house not far from them. Raeleigh looked over; the three sides of the house were spacious and clean, and they could see the surroundings well from there.

Raeleigh glanced at Callis and walked over to knock on the door.

Only a few lived in the walled house, so Raeleigh wanted to know whether it was newly built. If it was, she could buy it.

However, no one came out even after knocking for a long time. Sometime later, Raeleigh went around to a small window at the back of the house and looked inside, and someone suddenly appeared and gave Raeleigh the fright of her life.

Raeleigh let out a shriek, and the person inside opened the window, looking at Raeleigh.

"You scared the hell out of me."

Raeleigh patted her chest and looked at Callis, who was inside. He stared at her blankly, silent.

Raeleigh asked, "How did you get in?"

Callis looked at the front door, and Raeleigh walked back to the front and entered from the door. Sure enough, the place was newly built.

Raeleigh knew the village was constructing new houses, just that some of them were occupied and some not.

However, it wouldn't be easy to buy an occupied house while they had to look for an empty house that sold at a low price at the same time.

After taking a good look downstairs, Raeleigh went up to the loft, then said, "It would be great if we could build an elevator here."

After a quick thought, Callis went to a side and drew a floor plan of the house with his finger on the ground. Then he removed quite a few of the inner walls and placed a retractable stair in the middle.

"You know interior design?" Raeleigh asked, and he shook his head. Then Raeleigh concluded, "It's because you often watch people build and renovate then."

Callis did not answer, and Raeleigh took it as a yes. She pointed to the ground and said, "Although it's good, it's too troublesome. The current layout is good; quite a few can stay. It would be spacious if there weren't a lot of things. Xanthus can live upstairs, and I'll take the downstairs; you and your brother can live here. This is the kitchen, bathroom, living room..."

With that, Raeleigh decided to buy the house.

Raeleigh took out the money that her parents gave her that night. She looked at the amount on the card and thought she might still need a little more since they'd have to renovate the place.

She couldn't sleep that night, knowing she couldn't ask her parents for money as things would become more troublesome if they found out her true purpose.

Raeleigh knocked on Xanthus's door, planning on borrowing from him.

Xanthus's brows were tightly knitted, seeing it was Raeleigh when he answered the door. "Now you remember me?"

Raeleigh went in and closed the door behind her. "I want to borrow some money."
