Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1692

It took a long time for Lenold to answer the phone. When he finally answered, Jepherson cut to the chase and asked, "What military rank is he?"

Lenold initially wanted to yell at Jepherson because he shot the walkie-talkie on his shoulder the other day. The situation was very urgent at the time, so he did not have the time to think. Had Jepherson's aim been a little off, the result would be fatal.

But just as the words were about to come out, he decided to bite his tongue.

"I will give you an explanation for this, but you have to promise me that you're not going to do anything illegal."

Lenold exited the headquarters and found a quiet place to talk.

Jepherson leaned back in his chair and crossed his legs. "Well, I can promise not to kill you!"

Raeleigh, who sat opposite him, did not move at all. She knew that Jepherson was serious this time.

"Jepherson, I have my own difficulties. Remember the person you asked me to investigate? Do you have any idea who he is? I nearly got myself into trouble. I did it for your own good. You and I..."

"You did it for my own good? It's because of you I lost my wife and my daughter. I had to give up my business. It took me three years, two months and twenty-one days to find them!

You sure as hell did it for my own good. If it weren't because of you, I wouldn't have trained so hard, right? I had to search the entire planet for them."

"Jepherson, don't you think I know that?"

"I thought you knew, but I'm not so sure now."

"You're pissing me off. You very well know that it is confidential information. I can't disclose anything to you. Do you think I want to hide it from you? What benefits do you think I would get by hiding it from you?"

Jepherson did not answer. Lenold said, "I am in a very difficult position, but you know how tight the security was at Green House. The man who followed me, is meant to keep an eye on me. I only know the name of the man you're looking for, I don't know anything else. I don't even know where the person went."

Lenold had explained this to Jepherson multiple times. The few first times, Jepherson would respond, but later on, he kept quiet. Lenold was so angry that he did not know what to say. He did not say anything because he was tired of explaining.

However, Lenold did not hang up the phone. He waited for Jepherson's response. Sure enough, Jepherson was not done.

"Since you know he's an Interpol officer, there must be a way for you to investigate who he is. If you can give me the information, then I will let this matter slide, or else, I am going to take action."

After saying that, Jepherson hung up the phone.

Jepherson put down the phone and looked at Raeleigh. She decided not to say anything because she knew he wouldn't listen.

Raeleigh lay down, unwilling to look at Jepherson.

The room itself was spacious. There was a sizeable distance between the bed and the desk. As long Jepherson did not come over, Raeleigh would be able to sleep soundly.

After Raeleigh finally fell asleep, Jepherson got up and went out of the room.

When Raeleigh heard Jepherson open the door, she slowly opened her eyes and watched him leave.

Jepherson must have gone out to gather information about their daughter.

Raeleigh closed her eyes for a bit before turning to look at her cellphone. Then, she picked it up and called Xanthus.

"Hey Xanthus, it's me."
