Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1841

After leaving the kindergarten, Raeleigh followed Santiago to the Richards family manor. It had been four years since she returned, so she was no longer familiar with the place.

Santiago went in, put Carsten down and asked the children to keep themselves entertained. He then looked at Raeleigh and said, "I came back this time because Mrs. Richards is dying. She has been unconscious for a while now. I came back to see her for the last time."

Raeleigh asked, "Mrs. Richards?"

"Yes. Jepherson hasn't been home these couple of days because he has gone to visit her. He didn't tell you about it because Mrs. Richards doesn't want to see you. While she was still herself, she did say that she would never let you into the family, and that she didn't want to see you ever again.

Jepherson went to take care of her but was worried about you. So, he asked me to come home to take a look and it was only then did I find out that Carsten is autistic. This is on your plate now."

Raeleigh stared at him and asked, "Why did you bring me here then?"

"I live here."

Santiago turned around and walked back into the house. Raeleigh followed him in and saw that all the children had their own rooms, and they all lived in Green Jade Garden. The servants were carrying out their own tasks in an orderly manner as well. It seemed that nothing had changed. Raeleigh stood in the living room for a while before Santiago said, "I don't intend to leave this time. It's time for Shaney and the others to attend school."

Raeleigh looked at him. "What about you?"

"What about me?"

She stared at him for a while and asked again, "Are you going to stay like this forever?"

Santiago smiled and replied, "There's nothing wrong with being alone. Everything is predestined by fate, and our fate was destined to end with Forden. You don't owe me anything. As for your relationship with Jepherson, that's between you and him. I don't want to get involved.

Raeleigh, don't get stuck in the past. We need to learn to let go."

"Alright." Raeleigh nodded.

Santiago took her into his arms. He lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "No matter how beautiful the spring breeze is, it will never compare to your smile. But what I want is a simple life. It took me five years to find my peace; don't make me waver again."

Then, he let her go. "I understand," she muttered.

"That's good."

Santiago went to turn on the TV and sat down to watch while Raeleigh stood motionless in the living room for a short while, still pondering about their earlier conversation. At some point, Carsten emerged and stood at Raeleigh's feet, staring up at her. Raeleigh squatted down and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I don't have my own room." Carsten had just started to recover, so he was clingy and needy.

Raeleigh smiled. "How about you go to my room?"

"Okay."

Raeleigh picked him up and walked towards the room she and Jepherson used to live in, then set him down after entering the room. Carsten was in high spirits as he quickly ran inside. Raeleigh was rendered speechless for a moment, having never seen him so happy. Mixed feelings surged within her chest as she watched Carsten running circles around the room. She suddenly realized how much she had forgotten in the past few years. Perhaps this child was the only thing she

remembered.

She had stopped doing business for a long time, and she had not gone back home for several years because of her children. She almost forgot how Novalie looked.

Her eyes followed Carsten as he bounced around. She never thought of herself as a heartless or unfeeling person, yet in the end, she still let many things and people slip through her memory.

Raeleigh continued quietly watching Carsten as he ran excitedly inside the room. Soon after, she held him in her arms and sat them down. She stared at Carsten's delicate face and saw that he was sweating rather profusely. Raeleigh wiped away at his sweat and asked, "When did you find out that you have an uncle?"

Carsten threw himself into her arms and said nothing. No matter how much Raeleigh kept asking him, he refused to speak. Raeleigh knew that she couldn't bombard him with complex questions because of his autism.

Raeleigh stopped talking and eventually fell asleep with Carsten in her arms.

When she woke up, Santiago was knocking on the door, asking her to go home as he was about to leave. Raeleigh knew that Marissa was probably dying.

She handed Carsten over to Santiago and returned home alone. After packing up her clothes, she went back to the Richards family manor. Meanwhile, Santiago hopped into his car and rushed to A city.
