Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 901

"It's already the evening," Raeleigh said, giggling like a child. "I forgot."

"Is there something else that you've forgotten? How's your hand?" Novalie looked at Jepherson, then focused on chatting with Raeleigh. As usual, Raeleigh only told her the good news while leaving out the bad news.

Of course, Novalie did not believe it for a second. However, since matters had already transpired, what she said wouldn't change anything. She will only be able to find out what really happened after Raeleigh returns. For now, she could only ask cursorily over the phone.

"My hand is fine now. I'll be back in a few days."

"You're abroad now, so I can't help you with anything. You have to take care of yourself, don't put yourself down. I know how you are. You're now an adult, and I trust you a lot. I'm just worried because you always avoid the important matters and only face the trivial ones. Patience is a virtue, but there is also a limit to that."

Novalie was the one who brought Raeleigh up. She knew Raeleigh's character inside and out. Raeleigh was someone who could endure any hardship.

Because of that, Novalie felt that sometimes it was extremely difficult for Raeleigh. Her heart ached at the thought of it.

"I'm fine. I can look after myself. Grandma, I think you've forgotten that I'm an amazing person."

"Yes, you are."

"Grandma, how are you feeling? Have you been eating properly?"

"Yes, of course." Novalie didn't mention Jepherson. Raeleigh was currently abroad with an injured hand. Instead of going to Raeleigh, this stranger in front of her had come here. Since Raeleigh didn't bring it up, she must have her reasons. Novalie was not anxious to uncover them. She knew that the truth would be revealed to her sooner or later.

They continued chatting for a while before hanging up. Raeleigh put the phone down and leaned against the headboard. She couldn't sleep.

Scarlette was sitting up in bed, and Deanna and Zorion were also awake.

Raeleigh glanced at them. She was neither a coward nor a weak person. The world was ruthless. Even if you were weak, no one would pity you. So, she couldn't be weak.

Raeleigh continued sitting in bed for a while.

When she saw that it was still the early hours of the morning, she lay down and shut her eyes.

Deanna got down from her bed and walked to Raeleigh. She lowered her head and looked at Raeleigh for a while. "Are you okay, Raeleigh?" asked Deanna.

"I miss my grandmother." Raeleigh opened her eyes and looked at Deanna. Deanna mulled over how to respond and finally said, "I miss my mother too."

"It's all my fault. If it wasn't for me, Zorion and you wouldn't have come here; if we hadn't come here, we wouldn't be feeling this way." Raeleigh felt quite guilty.

"Don't say that. We're doing it willingly. It's true. I'm thrilled to have you as my friend. I never had any friends since I was a child. Those who got close to me always had ulterior motives. If it wasn't to curry favor with me, it was to curry favor with my parents. They all approached me with hidden agendas. They played with me and always let me have my way. Raeleigh, I don't like such friends. I like friends like you, someone who knows how to respect boundaries and isn't interested in climbing the social ladder."

Raeleigh was chagrined when she heard what Deanna had to say. She felt bad and quickly sat up. Scarlette didn't lie back down either.

Scarlette had her own thoughts on the matter. Raeleigh was too soft-hearted. If things went on that way, she would end up giving Jepherson to Deanna sooner or later. Deanna was too good at playing mind games.
