Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1628

When he saw Jepherson, Jacky stood up without a word. He then turned around and said, "Bury the dog."

Jepherson moved with the intention to follow him, but his way was barred by the village people.

Jacky continued, "I only did something that I should have done from the beginning. I was like this before I met you. Those who oppose me will not have a good ending when I catch them. Other than the blood on the ground, I promise that not even her bones will remain."

Jepherson's gaze was deep and cold. "Jacky Scott."

Jacky stopped and glanced back at Jepherson, "I'm not you. I'm not going to consider the bigger picture. For the sake of the bigger picture, I left behind a mad dog that hurt people everywhere. This isn't how I, Jacky, do things. Never put a snake in your arms, it will only lead to your death."

Jacky pivoted on his feet and left with his men. Raeleigh stood a little distance away as she watched Jepherson as well as the entire proceedings. When he turned and saw her, only then did she walk away.

Raeleigh left Waverly Village and headed for the shopping mall to buy some necessary daily items and some tonics for Louisa.

On that same day, Raeleigh quietly packed up the luggage in Santiago's room and moved back to her own place.

When Jepherson came back, Raeleigh had by then already asked some people to move the bed.

The room was now empty with the exception of Santiago lying on the bed.

In the following days, besides visiting Santiago every day when Jepherson was absent, neither of them had the chance to see each other.

Due to Jacky's incapacitated state at the time, he had missed out on the Mayor election. The current Mayor was someone from the Moore Family.

Raeleigh heard that the person from the Moore family was irresponsible.

However, the fact that Flynt was able to elevate that irresponsible person to an important position, showcased Flynt's capabilities.

Moreover, during this period of time, the Richards family suffered the threat of being supplanted in Capital City. When Flynt's people rose and became the mayor, he would join hands with some merchants and replace the Richards Group.

Therefore, the turmoil outside had yet to calm

down.

Jepherson left early and returned late at night. Raeleigh stayed in Santiago's room all day to take care of him. Xanthus, on the other hand, followed doggedly in her footsteps.

Due to the state of Raeleigh's eyes, Xanthus studied everyday on how to keep Raeleigh's eyes from getting worse.

But no matter how much he researched, there was only one answer and that was to remove the brain tumor through surgery. The problem with that was that no one dared to perform this operation.

The child had already grown past the recommended age, to perform it now would be a pointless endeavour.

Besides, Raeleigh wouldn't agree to the operation.

Raeleigh had just wiped Santiago's face and was about to leave. When she reached the door, she saw that Jepherson had just come back, but neither of them spoke.

Raeleigh walked past him and through the door back to where she stayed. She closed it behind her and hadn't emerged since, not even for a meal.

Jepherson did not seek out Raeleigh. He gave her all the time and space she needed.

Two months later, the Capital City finally returned

to its peaceful days. The momentum of the three powerhouses increased as well. With the stance of the Richards, the Moores, and the Whalens, it was once again confirmed that the strengths of these three old families were extraordinary. In their fight for supremacy, they fought themselves to a standstill.

The Moore family occupied the entire political circle. The Richards family held dominion over the commercial lifeline of the city while the Whalen family controlled an unseen trajectory.

The three families occupied their respective parts of the circle. Plus, in the past six months, the Richards family had suffered the most losses.

Although they had regained what was lost and recovered all their business chains, the loss was still too great.

Almost everyone knew that something had happened to Santiago.

Autumn came and Raeleigh had been pregnant for six months.
