Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1617

Jared found a pair of scissors and quickly cut off Jepherson's clothes. It was then that Raeleigh realized there were several cuts on Jepherson's body.

Even though the cuts weren't deep, they bled profusely.

Raeleigh stared at the cuts and unconsciously asked, "What happened?"

"Mr. Jepherson was attacked as soon as we stepped out of our office building. We managed to drive some of them away and even caught some of the attackers. We thought that was it. We did not think that we would be ambushed again just as we were about to pull up to the house."

Raeleigh understood Jared's words but did not understand how Jepherson got injured in the process. Did Stella not learn her lesson? Did she lose all hope in Jepherson?

Raeleigh had not heard any news about Stella in a long time. She did not understand what was going on.

Unless it was the Doyle family.

Raeleigh knelt down and helped Jared to take off Jepherson's clothes. Raeleigh held Jepherson in her arms and asked Jared whether he needed any help to carry Jepherson into bed.

Jared glanced towards the bed and wondered where they were supposed to put Jepherson since Santiago was already on the bed?

Raeleigh did not think about it too much. She stood up and asked Jared to help her carry Jepherson to the bed.

Raeleigh did not know why Jared trusted her so much, but he did as he was told.

After laying Jepherson down on the bed, Raeleigh went to the door to anxiously wait for the doctor to arrive.

A few minutes later, Xanthus came back. When he saw Jepherson's injured body, he hurried over to take Jepherson's pulse. Louisa entered the room and immediately turned into doctor mode as well.

By the time the doctor arrived, Xanthus had already given Jepherson an injection as well as cleaned his wounds. Louisa also briefly gave Jepherson a quick examination before helping Xanthus to disinfect the wounds.

Raeleigh asked, "Why didn't you go to the hospital?"

"Mr. Jepherson told us not to. The Richards family is currently under fire. Furthermore, things have just settled down here in Capital City. If we went to the hospital, these things will be made public and the Richards family will be attacked again. That was why Mr. Jepherson told us not to go to the hospital. He was adamant that we came home."

In fact, Jared wanted to send Jepherson to the hospital. But no matter what he said, Jepherson refused.

That was why Jared had no choice but to bring him home.

Raeleigh stood aside and did not ask any more questions. Not long after, a servant brought the doctor to the room. He immediately gave Jepherson another examination before inserting an IV drip into his veins.

Raeleigh calmly sat on the sofa as she watched the two brothers lying on the bed.

This was their world. They would always take turns to get into trouble, which was what made people around them tremble in fear.

Raeleigh placed her hands on her belly. That was probably the reason why she did not want her baby to have anything to do with them.

Soon, everyone left the room. Xanthus went to take a shower. Raeleigh was the only one left in the room as she sat and watched the brothers.

She knew that the lives of the rich and powerful families were complicated. She did not realize that there was an ugly side to human nature. Even if you did not provoke them, they would still come and find you.

Raeleigh did not know how long she had sat there before she decided to take off her glasses. She looked at her hand but noticed that her vision was a little blurry even though her hand was right in front of her. She had to focus all her strength on her eyes before she could see clearly.

However, the doctor did advise her not to exert herself too much because it might stimulate her brain tumor.

Raeleigh put her glasses on again and got up to pour a glass of water. Just then, Jepherson slowly opened his eyes. When Raeleigh saw him, she quickly walked towards him and helped him to sit up in bed. Although his movements were slow, he did not feel any pain. He sat up and leaned against the headboard.

Raeleigh sat down. "How are you feeling?"

Jepherson's most serious injury was on his arm. So, he lifted his arm and proved to her that he was fine.

Raeleigh cast a glance at Jepherson's arm. "Would you like some water?"

"Sure."

Jepherson fixed his eyes on Raeleigh as she poured him a glass of water.

Raeleigh gently blew on the hot water before handing it to Jepeherson, "Be careful. It's a little hot."

Jepherson opened his mouth. He couldn't move his hands at the moment, so he had to rely on Raeleigh to help him.
