Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 857

"Raeleigh, you should keep this extra money and spend it on yourself. You shouldn't spend it all on me. I don't even like these things," the old lady said. In actuality, it was not that she didn't like it, but that she didn't want the money to be wasted on her. To put it bluntly, even if she had the best clothes to wear then or the best things to use, she didn't have it in her youth when she could've really used and enjoyed it. So, what was the point of having it, now that she was already so old.

"It was quite cheap, so I bought it. Grandma, we're going back today. Call me if you need anything."

Raeleigh reminded her again and again, and so did the old lady. After walking for a while with Scarlette, they saw a cab and was about to hail it to get back to the university.

"Let's take a bus," Scarlette said as she pulled Raeleigh towards the bus station instead. Scarlette had spotted a bus card in Raeleigh's bag and inferred that Raeleigh normally couldn't bear to spend extra money on a cab. So, Scarlette thought there was no need to hail a cab just to accompany her when this was what Raeleigh preferred.

When they arrived at the bus station, they waited in line when a sleek black car arrived and stopped ahead. It was too striking, which caught everybody's attention.

Raeleigh saw the car logo and knew that it was Jepherson's car.

Stuart quickly got out of the car, after which he walked to Raeleigh and said politely, "Miss Anson, please."

Raeleigh took a look at the people around her, who were looking on, and then she walked over.

The door was opened and Stuart invited Raeleigh to get into the car. Raeleigh turned around and took a look at Scarlette. Bending over, she got into the car.

Scarlette initially intended to get into the same car as well, but before she could step closer, the man outside the car, Stuart, said, "Sorry, Young Master Richards is getting changed. Miss Scarlette, please take the other car."

She raised her head and narrowed her eyes at Stuart. Alright!

She turned around and strode over to the other car, which was coming over to her. Then, she bent down and got into the car.

Stuart then got into the car. By that time, Jepherson was done changing his clothes and was sitting in the car and reading from a

notebook.

Closing the book, Jepherson raised his head and asked, "Is there any other special arrangement for today?"

"There are none."

"Tell the Old Madam that I have something to do and cannot go back for dinner today. I'll be back tomorrow," Jepherson immediately ordered. Raeleigh looked at Jepherson with her dark eyes thoughtfully for a while.

"Where are you going to take me?" Raeleigh had to go back to school the next day, which was why she had to leave one day earlier, as the travelling distance was very far. Even by car, it would take two hours.

Why would Jepherson appear?

"I need to go out for a bit today. I don't have a female companion. Since you have nothing to do, keep me company for a while and I'll have you back by tomorrow morning and it won't affect your plans." Jepherson's tone was calm, as if they were an old couple who had been together for many years. Raeleigh frowned. What was Jepherson's intention?

All of a sudden, the car was silent. Raeleigh lowered her head and subconsciously fixed her eyes on the bracelet on her wrist. "What did Jepherson want to do?" "I still have something to do at eight o'clock tomorrow. Are you sure you can send me back by eight o'clock tomorrow morning?" Raeleigh finally compromised. On one hand, she couldn't argue with Jepherson. On the other hand, even if she had tried to argue her way out of this, she wouldn't be able to win over him, and this really was the key factor.

Jepherson smiled thinly and said, "Alright." Then, he turned his face to the side and elegantly crossed his legs and affixed his hands on his thighs, his gaze focusing on the road outside the window. He looked relaxed and free from all desire, that Raeleigh, who had been staring, had him go into a little daze.

Raeleigh had seen a lot of elegant men, but it was the first time she'd seen someone of Jepherson's age being able to achieve such natural elegance.

A book was placed beside Jepherson. Raeleigh was slightly stunned when she saw the signature on it. It was the signature of one of Germany's top car designers and it was an artistic collectible item. It had been said that there were only ten of such copies in the whole world and that its price was invaluable.

Raeleigh sat there for a while, her eyes fixed on the diary.
