Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1715

Rayan turned to look at his retreating daughter, filled with mixed emotions. She was slowly acting more like a grown- up, but he truly wished she could stay a child forever.

She had become wiser. How surprising!

Dinner was ready when Jacky returned. He came in carrying a briefcase containing confidential documents, which he placed on the console table out in the open. Despite how the Whalen family treated him, he had never guarded against them.

"Dad."

He greeted Rayan as soon as he entered, but Rayan never acknowledged the address; he would never acknowledge it as long as they weren't married, which Rayan would never agree to. He continued watching the television and only spared Jacky a glance.

The twins looked over at Rayan; they didn't know what was going on, but Jacky didn't care. He went to hug his sons and kiss them, "Did you two behave today?"

"Yes, Daddy." "Good, let's take a shower, hmm?"

Jacky put his sons down and headed upstairs, the twins following right behind. Whenever Jacky was around, they would cling to him unless he told them to accompany their grandfather or someone else. This was a bond people would be jealous of.

Rayan turned to look at the three; it was a scene beyond the outsider's imagination.

Now that Rayan was alone, he reached for one of the magazines. Crevor was on the cover; thirty, young and promising, and the current head of the Doyle family.

After a quick scan, Rayan chucked it back on the table.

Coincidentally, Hannah returned to the living room to gather everyone for dinner. Odd that she couldn't find Jacky, she went to Rayan and asked.

As Rayan said he went to take a shower, Hannah caught a glimpse of the magazine. She picked it up, and an upsetting look showed on her face seeing Crevor on the cover.

Chucking the magazine back on the table, she harrumphed, "How horrible of the Doyle family. How can they take advantage of the fact that Jacky had just entered the office and know he can't lay his hands on them to attack him?

As annoyance rose within Rayan, Zorion and Rossie entered the house.

Hannah treated Rossie even better than Deanna now, even if Rossie wouldn't bring up her marriage with Zorion.

Rayan had originally wanted Rossie to apologize to Marissa for the hotel incident. However, Rossie stood her ground and refused to apologize when Marrisa was in the wrong.

And Rayan couldn't lose his temper with her as she was only his future daughter-in-law after all.

Hannah sided with Rossie and went to apologize on her behalf, but Marissa refused to see her.

So Hannah gave up just like that. "Since you don't want me to apologize, so be it. Save me the trouble."

"Have you two had dinner?"

"Not yet."

"Then wash your hands and sit down with us."

Hannah then took Rossie away, leaving only Zorion. Judging by his father's expression, he knew something was up.

They headed to Rayan's study and sat across from each other. Rayan threw the magazine to Zorion and asked, "What's going on?"

Zorion took a look and said, "The Doyle family have already acquired most of the Moore family's businesses. Crevor isn't an easy person to deal with either. I don't know if this is his doing, but he doesn't deny it. From the looks of it, his purpose of coming to Capital City is probably to challenge the Moore family and replace them."

"He's going to take down the Moore family?"

It didn't occur to Rayan that the Doyle family would do that.
