Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen)

Chapter 1603

Later, someone handed Raeleight the agreement. She took a good look at it; it roughly meant that students could not terminate their enrollment before they've completed their studies. If they did, the school would not accept the student's reapplication if they decide to return.

Seeing the others signed, Raeleigh did too, and the agreement was collected back.

Raeleigh had to hand it to Jepherson for his finesse.

However, given his position, it was understandable that he had no choice but to be a step ahead of others.

Jepherson said a few more words before leaving.

Raeleigh left with most of the crowd, but she wasn't expecting Jepherson to be waiting for her at the school gates.

When Raeleigh got to him, there was another person with him in the car.

She only got in when she saw it was Lenold.

Lenold handed a document over to Raeleigh.

"Take a look at this."

Raeleigh took it and looked through the papers. It was a biography on Austin.

Austin Quirk. Male. 28 years old. Biracial. Born in a small mountain village. Because of his excellent academic performance since young and his intelligence, he was selected exceptionally as a member of the national basketball team during high school.

But some time later, Austin beat someone to death because of a girl.

And he was sentenced to prison for 17 years, but it wasn't long before he killed a few people in prison because he was trying to escape. After he was arrested, he became a serious offender and was locked up in the Green House.

He became a hired killer after going into prison. Austin would have to kill when he was paid.

The matter was only exposed after the prison warden was found dead some time ago. The higher authorities were worried that it would hurt both the Green House and the Ministry of Public Affairs, which would, in turn, cause public opinion. So they secretly had Austin killed.

Raeleigh's hand flinched, and the papers in her hand fell to the ground. She fixed her eyes ahead, looking soulless. Austin's face and his unforgettable jet-black eyes filled her mind.

Raeleigh was still absent-minded the entire car ride. When they reached the entrance of Waverly Village, Jepherson picked up the papers Raeleigh dropped on the ground and looked at them before turning to Lenold. "He's dead?"

Lenold said, "I got these reports from the people inside. It was not easy. He killed the warden and worked as a hired killer in prison. He had become a stain in the country, so everything about him is top secret."

Raeleigh slowly opened the door and got out of the car. Step by step, she walked into the village with a blank look on her face.

Inside the car, Jepherson stared at Lenold. "You're certain?"

"Yes." Lenold took the information. "I have to destroy the papers."

Jepherson looked outside and stared at Raeleigh's disappearing figure.

"Take me back. I have to catch a plane." Lenold needed to leave, so Jepherson told the driver to send Lenold to the airport.

Jepherson only left after Lenold entered the airport.

When Raeleigh reached home, she sat down on the chair by the front door, staring into space.

Xanthus followed behind Raeleigh after she entered the village. Seeing she sat down, he went up to her. Raeleigh looked up at Xanthus and said, "He's dead."

Xanthus hugged Raeleigh, standing at the door. "Some people are destined to be a passerby in your life; no need to be depressed over anyone. The living should live for the dead and not the other way around, or everything would be in vain."

Raeleigh didn't know how long it took for her to react. She stood up and went back to her room. She lay down and stared at the ceiling without saying anything.

Xanthus gave a cup of water to Raeleigh, and she fell asleep before she knew it, rousing when it was dark.

Hearing Xanthus talking to someone outside, she got up to learn Jepherson's parents had come.

Raeleigh came out of the room and fixed her gaze on Hansen and Jenna sitting on the sofa.

Stumped, she greeted, "Uncle, Auntie."

Jenna walked to Raeleigh and said, "I know it's wrong for me not to answer your calls, but I don't know how to tell you."

"I can help you take care of Santiago." Raeleigh held Jenna's hand. Jenna turned to glance at her husband, looking in a dilemma.

"Raeleigh, Santiago is my child. I can't ask you to take care of him, but you can help out. We're staying in the Richards Group Manor."

"No matter what, Capital City is our home. We can't leave."

"We can't be sure when Santiago will wake up, but Hansen doesn't like staying abroad and wants to come back."

"Things aren't looking good for Hansen's parents either. But our purpose today is to see how you're doing."

"I hope that you can stay with us; at least I have someone to talk to."

Uncertain, Raeleigh lowered her head and said, "I am afraid I can't."

Jenna said, "I know I'm putting you in a difficult position. No worries. This aside, I've brought you gifts. Look, they're all tonics and supplements; I've asked people to get them for you. You should take better care of yourself now that you're pregnant."

"Auntie..."

Raeleigh didn't know what to say. Jenna had always treated her well.

Jenna had lost a lot of weight, and she barely had the strength to speak, but she was still thinking about her.

Hansen looked different since she last saw him too. His hair had turned much whiter.

"Auntie, please stay for dinner." Raeleigh really didn't know what to say. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"Thank you, but no. Hansen and I had dinner on the plane; we'll be heading back after taking a look at you."

With grief in her heart, Jenna walked out of the house; Raeleigh followed her out while keeping an eye outside.

The Richards family's car was parked outside, and Jepherson was standing beside it. When he saw his parents, he opened the door for them to enter successively before going in himself. Raeleigh walked to the vehicle and looked inside, but Santiago wasn't in there.

Raeleigh stood outside and held back her curiosity until the car left.

Xanthus came out and said after a pause, "C'mon, Come back in."

Raeleigh said, "I want to see Santiago."

"When the weather's good. They just got back."

Xanthus dragged her back. It wasn't until she was inside that she realized she hadn't seen Leander or Callis. Asking Xanthus their whereabouts, he replied, "They asked for leave, saying they were going back to honor their ancestors."

Raeleigh looked at Xanthus. "Honor their ancestors? Aren't they orphans?"

"They grew up without parents, but that doesn't mean they don't have ancestors."

Xanthus wasn't concerned, let alone Raeleigh.

Callis returned a couple of days later. When he got to their door, Raeleigh was heading out. To the Richards Group Manor!
