Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1807

"Uncle, you want to hurt my Dad?" Shaney straightened up from Austin's back and blinked her big eyes up at him. He tilted his head back to look at her, "If I do, what would you do?"

"Then I'll be angry. I only have one Dad."

"What about me?"

"I don't want to lose Uncle either." Shaney murmured into Austin's shoulder. Raeleigh shook her head. This child of hers had so many tricks up her sleeves, that sometimes she felt that even she was being cheated by her.

Moreover, she thought with each passing day that her child had become more like Santiago.

Shaney was a girl. If she really had Santiago's temperament, she wouldn't know what to do. How did her child turn out this way?

With that being said, Raeleigh needed to get right down to business.

"I'll talk to him and tell him to yield to you, okay?" Raeleigh persuaded. Austin smiled drily, an unperturbed look on his handsome face, "What I want is his frustration. If I let you talk to him, it would undoubtedly give him a chance to extricate himself from the situation and that's not what I want to happen. We're having raviolis later, come back after you've washed your hands."

Austin turned and left with Shaney on his back still. Raeleigh stood in the courtyard for a while. On such a cold day, she heard that Jepherson stood there for all this time and never left. He just stood there like that...

Raeleigh went to the watchtower. She looked down from that vantage point. There were a lot of people around, including Jacky and Zorion. While she was busy looking down at the crowd, Jared immediately notified Jepherson that Raeleigh was up above.

Jepherson took out his binoculars and pointed it in Raeleigh's direction. She was still in her clothes that she had originally worn, her gaze soft and calm as she looked back at him.

When she saw that Jepherson was looking at her, she lightly breathed a sigh of relief.

On the other hand, Jepherson frowned and called Raeleigh on his phone. He pointed towards Raeleigh, a non-verbal signal for her to pick up the call. It was only then she took out her phone and accepted it.

"Come down. Bring my daughter out together."

Jepherson couldn't hide the anger in his voice. Raeleigh sighed, "Why are you doing this? You obviously know that this is a futile endeavour. If Austin truly wanted to release the children, why would he need to imprison us here?"

"If he doesn't release you both, I won't leave, I absolutely won't give up." Jepherson then turned on his heel and marched towards his car. He pointed at the person inside with an order for them to get out. The driver immediately scrambled out. Raeleigh felt that something wasn't right. "What are you doing?" she asked.

"He thought I was afraid of him. Then I'll let him see whether I, Jepherson Richards, am really afraid of him." While he spoke, he reached the front of his car. With a walkie-talkie in his other hand, he communicated through it to the people around the area. Soon, the cars were driven away and a passage was opened up.

Jepherson sat inside the car, one hand used to make a call, while the other one was used to control the car. He was very composed.

Raeleigh shouted into the phone at once, "Jepherson, are you crazy? What are you doing?"

"He thought that just because he wouldn't let me in that I won't go in. He can't make that decision for me. I'm going in now, if he has the ability, then just gun me down."

Jepherson revved up the engine a few times with the accelerator. He then reversed the car to get some distance. Jacky's sleep was disturbed by all the noise. When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Jepherson's car, worth millions of dollars, crashing against the prison's doors with a loud bang!

"Jepherson, Jepherson..." Raeleigh got such a fright that she turned to head down the stairs and to the doors, only to be instantly held back by a few people.

Zorion ordered people to check on Jepherson. By the time they ran up, he was already unconscious, with a gash across his head and blood all over his face.

"Jepherson...Jepherson..." Zorion shouted a few times, but Jepherson did not respond. He hurriedly tried to open the car door. At this moment, Jacky came over from his own car just as Zorion had dragged the person out, carried him down to the ground and gave a brief scan over his injuries.

"First- aid!" Jacky yelled immediately after a glance. Zorion got up and called for someone at once to help carry Jepherson into another car, which then sent him straight to the hospital.
