Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1648

Raeleigh put the lanyard aside. "Humans are blind and cannot stand any scrutiny; we're no different."

Jepherson said, "I'm hungry."

"Let's go and eat then."

"Eat here. I don't want to go out."

Jepherson went to the door and told Stuart to bring some food over. After lunch, they headed to the company.

When Raeleigh went into Jepherson's office, she saw Lamarre's sketch on his table. She sat down and stared at it, spacing out.

"Why is there only half of it?"

"It's his assignment for you; he wants to give you a hand after his passing."

Jepherson had thought of developing Lamarre's sketch but decided otherwise after looking at it. Lamarre left it for Raeleigh; it wasn't his to use, choosing to respect Lamarre's decision.

Although Lamarre had resigned, the unilateral severance was not feasible.

Raeleigh looked at Jepherson for a while and fixed her eyes on his face again. "What would you say if I expressed my interest in collaborating with you?"

Hearing that, Jepherson sat aside with a leg across and pondered, "I'm sure you remember Lamarre was our designer. Even if he had already resigned, it wouldn't enter into force without my signature."

"Santiago's agreed to it."

Raeleigh stared at Jepherson. She knew he wouldn't say yes so easily.

Jepherson chuckled under his breath. "No one knows if he did. Even if you have his signature, it is a thing of the past. What's more, this can be overturned even with my signature, unless..."

Raeleigh did not wait for him to finish speaking.

"Unless what?"

Jepherson glanced at Raeleigh's wrist. "Unless it's my official seal."

Raeleigh raised her hand and looked at the bracelet on her wrist, then back at Jepherson, "You love playing mind games, don't you. In this case, even if you are kidnapped, nobody would get anything substantial because they still need your seal. And so far, I believe that most people, even those you trust, never even had the chance to see your seal."

Jepherson did not answer. Raeleigh looked at the bracelet. "Sadly, I could never unlock it. If I can, I believe I will have you give away all your assets."

"But you won't do that."

Jepherson said as he stood up, pouring her a glass of water and placing it before her. Raeleigh was indeed a little thirsty.

After drinking, she went back to the sketch. If they really did come up with a car using it, how should they divide the profit?

"What do you want?" Jepherson asked, and Raeleigh thought for a moment. "I want it all, but you probably won't give it to me. You're insisting Lamarre hasn't terminated his contract with you."

"He really hadn't."

Raeleigh didn't know what else to say.

She gave in to the matter in the end.

"Let's move on then."

Raeleigh went straight to the following topic. Jepherson asked, leaning against his chair, "I reckon you want to know if the car will belong to your company or mine."

"Yes, although we're not as big as Richards Group, we're still a rising star. I believe we'll set the trend in the near future. Even if it's not as influential as yours, it won't be too far off."
