Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 956

Raeleigh left to attend her class. Thankfully, nothing much happened all day. Zorion would occasionally drop by to find Raeleigh focusing in class.

When classes were over in the evening, she found a quiet place to sit, flanked by Deanna and Scarlette.

Deanna asked, "Raeleigh, would you like to come over to my house this weekend?"

Raeleigh shook her head, "No thanks, I need to visit my grandmother."

"How about I accompany you then?" Deanna suggested. If Raeleigh did not want to go over to her house that weekend, then she would go over to Raeleigh's instead.

Scarlette's face was full of disdain. "Can you please grow up? Why must you follow Raeleigh? Also were you going to invite me over to your house?"

Deanna grunted. "Nope."

"Fine, I wouldn't go even if you did."

Raeleigh chuckled when she saw Deanna and Scarlette bickering.

At long last, it was the weekend. Raeleigh had already packed her for the weekend and was eager to leave. However, as she was about to head out the door, she was informed that someone was waiting for her downstairs.

Xanthus! Raeleigh was surprised to see him.

"What can I do for you?" She walked over and asked. Xanthus said instead, "Let's take a walk."

Since he had helped her before, she owed it to him to hear him out. Oddly enough he had questions for her.

"Do you remember where you were born? Your childhood?" Xanthus asked. She replied, "In the countryside. My grandmother is from there. I was born in the midst of a plague. Both of my parents are dead. My grandmother had to go around begging for food. She did whatever she could to make sure we have food to survive."

"I couldn't tell that you were an orphan. It seems like I was wrong," Xanthus frowned.

"Are you looking for someone?" Raeleigh asked. Xanthus nodded, looking somewhat disappointed.

Raeleigh did not ask but Xanthus explained anyway. "About 19 years ago, my parents moved here and was unluckily encountered their enemies. They took my sister away. Til now, we

are still looking for her."

Raeleigh looked Xanthos in the eye. "What made you think that I might be your sister?"

"There is a sense of familiarity when I'm around you." Xanthus said with a smile, "I'm sorry to have bothered you."

Xanthus walked away, Raeleigh frowning as she watched him leave. She put the strange conversation out of her head and made her way back to the dormitory.

As soon as she entered the room, Deanna rushed over and asked, "Was it my brother? Did he come to ask you out on a date?"

Raeleigh laughed. "No."

"Then who is it?" Deanna asked, feeling a little disappointed.

Raeleigh did not answer. She looked over at Scarlette and asked, "Are you really going home with Deanna?"

Stubbornness on her face, Scarlette said, "Yup."

"Alright, have fun with Deanns then. I'm going," Raeleigh picked up stuff, and they left the dorms together.

Zorion was waiting outside for them when they came out. Scarlette and Deanna waved goodbye to Raeleigh. She rode with Zorion who had offered to drop Raeleigh off at her grandmother's place.

Raeleigh thanked Zorion for the lift and watched as he drove away before heading into her house. Before she can call out, heard someone talking to her grandmother, Novalie.

Curious, Raeleigh put her things down and she went in search of Novalie.

"What are you doing here?" Raeleigh blurted out when shesaw Jepherson. Surprise was an understatement since she did not see his car nor Stuart on the way in. There went her plans for a peaceful weekend..
