Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 829

"Nice to meet you. I'm Scarlette. What's your name?" Scarlette introduced herself as Raeleigh brought her back to their dorm after dinner.

Raeleigh reached out her hand to her too and said, "My name is Raeleigh Anson. You can call me Raeleigh."

"I have no parents and I grew up in an orphanage. I managed to get in here with my results. What about you?" Scarlette asked. Raeleigh paused for a moment. Although Raeleigh had a grandmother, she also grew up in an orphanage. When she was ten years old, the orphanage she lived in got burnt down due to a fire and her grandmother adopted her.

At that time, her grandmother had no issue supporting her but things changed after that.

"I got in here with my results too." Raeleigh didn't want to say much on this topic because she didn't have the same personality as Scarlette. She was more introverted. Therefore, Raeleigh didn't bring up her past in the orphanage.

"I was wearing red clothes when I was left at the orphanage. Therefore, the orphanage's caretaker named me after it. What about you? Does your name mean anything specifically?" Scarlette asked. Scarlette was the same age as Raeleigh. They were both 19 years old. However, Scarlette seemed approachable, and she always had a smile on her face when she spoke, which brought a warm feeling to people around her.

Raeleigh stared at Scarlette and answered briefly, "I'm not too sure how I got my name and I never asked about it. I think your name is much better than mine. It sounds beautiful."

"I think so, too. Oh, how many people are there in our dorm?" Scarlette put down her luggage and sat on the bed opposite of Raeleigh. Raeleigh looked around and said, "There were four of us here and now that you're here, it will be five of us. I'm not sure if one of us had gotten the wrong dorm room number."

Raeleigh didn’t think much about it. Since Scarlette was new here, she wanted to help her out.

After all, gaining a new friend was better than gaining a new enemy.

"Do you think I got the wrong one?" Scarlette asked Raeleigh. Raeleigh looked into the room and said, "The others aren't back yet and I don't think they will be back here tonight. If you don't mind, then you can share my bed with me tonight. I'll bring you to the school office and check with the teacher if this is fine. I have to take a trip there anyway to tell them that the other three students aren't back tonight."

"Alright, let's go then. I'll unpack when we get back," Scarlette replied. Then, the two of them went to the school's office and talked to a teacher on duty about their situation and also about the other three students.

"You two can take a seat first. I'll make a call to confirm about the situation." The teacher on duty turned around and went off to make a call. She returned shortly after.

"Due to Raeleigh's matter, the school had arranged the other three students to another dorm. Scarlette enrolled late, so her dorm placement was taken by Raeleigh. Now that the dorm is cleared out, Scarlette, you may live in the same room. I'll help you register and Scarlette can move in tonight. Later, there will be people over to move out the luggage of the other three students. You two may go back now."

The teacher on duty explained the situation and Raeleigh felt relieved. If she were to remain roommates with Quirina, then things would only get worse.

"We'll be leaving then. Thank you, madam," Raeleigh said. Then, she turned around and headed back to her dorm with Scarlette. Raleigh wondered about how Quirina was doing. The school was extremely silent and no one was talking about the incident. She wondered if Quirina's family thought the incident was too embarrassing and had made sure that no one was talking about it in school.

Regardless, Quirina will eventually return. Even if she was admitted into a hospital right then, she would be discharged eventually and find fault with Raeleigh.

Raeleigh thought about it as she walked. She was completely lost in her thoughts and she had forgotten about Scarlette who was walking alongside of her.
