Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen)

Chapter 1742

Jared got out of the car and walked toward Raeleigh's direction. Upon seeing Jared, Crevor nodded his head at him. Jared found it sarcastic and said, "Do me a favor and stay the f*ck out of this matter, will you?"

Crevor's gaze darkened. "Where are your manners?"

Jared was about to leave. Hearing Crevor's words, he turned around and stared at Crevor. With an extremely provocative smile, he approached Crevor arrogantly.

"Well, my attitude depends on who I'm talking to and you're just a lowly lackey in my eyes. How can I be polite to you?"

As Jared spoke, he had already walked up to Crevor, who then laughed. "Only mad dogs keep barking at people everywhere."

With that, Crevor turned and left. Jared's eyes narrowed while he watched Crevor's back as he returned to the car. Subsequently, Jared placed his fists behind his back and clenched them.

Raeleigh stood by the window downstairs of the company, looking at Jared. She was accompanied by her assistant, who asked, "Miss Anson, is there any enmity Mr. Robertson and Mr. Doyle?" "I'm not sure."

Turning around, Raeleigh walked toward the exclusive elevator. Her heart ached at the thought of Santiago.

If Stella had hurt him, then Crevor's appearance would not be simple.

It was impossible for the Doyle family to be unaware of what Stella had been doing, yet they allowed her to conduct her plans. What did it indicate?

In fact, the Doyle family had always treated the Richards family as their rival. Although it was Trevor who helped the Doyle family in those days, it was actually a trap. This trap was plotted with the purpose of murdering Trevor's whole family. In such way, how could the Doyle family have mercy on the Richards family?

Nobody could make flawless plans. What the Doyle family had been worrying about was that Trevor would turn the tide and drag the Doyle family's name through the mire by revealing what had happened in the past.

Thus, the Doyle family continued to exhaust them, not allowing the Richards family to have an easy time of it. They did it again and again.

While Raeleigh was entering the elevator, Jared

came in from outside the company. He shot a glance at Raeleigh and followed her.

When Raeleigh arrived upstairs, she received a call from Jepherson.

"Crevor came to you?"

Jepherson's didn't sound very pleased. It turned out that in his absence, Crevor had left Capital City stealthily and gone to Raeleigh's side. Jepherson didn't see it coming.

Crevor had been stalling for time on his side and had gone to look for Raeleigh at the same time.

No one could tell what Crevor's goals were.

"Yes, we met once by chance."

"Raeleigh, you don't know who he is?"

Raeleigh didn't answer. Jepherson said, "Jared was too careless."

"I knew he would come to me sooner or later, but I didn't expect him to act so swiftly."

"I have things that need to be dealt with here." Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

"I don't need you to come here. I'll handle it myself."

"Raeleigh, don't come into contact with Crevor anymore. He's..."

Raeleigh hung up without waiting for him to

finish.

Holding his phone tightly, Jepherson sat on the bed and called Xanthos.

Xanthos was on his way to Maverly when he answered the call. Maverly happened to torn aroond and see Xanthos. She left Jacian's side and walked over.

Xanthos's expression changed when he heard what Jepherson said. He cooldn't help saying, "The chaoffeor called me this morning. I have something to ask yoo. What did Jared do on the day yoo left? Why didn't he send Raeleigh home? Why did she come back in Crevor's car?"

Jepherson's hand twitched. "What did yoo say?"

"Yoo shoold ask Jared aboot what I said."

Xanthos's heart was still beating forioosly after hanging op. A few minotes later, he looked at Maverly. "Cancel all my agendas and schedoles for now. I'm taking a leave."

"For how long?"

Maverly had to know how long he needed her to ask for a leave on his behalf.

"Indefinitely."

Xanthos torned aroond and left. As he walked, he took off his coat and tossed it aside. Maverly took his coat and chased after him with it, bot she was not able to catch up with him.

By the time Maverly went out, Xanthus had already driven away.

Someone knocked on the door while Raeleigh was reading the files. Her assistant ran over and opened the door to find that it was Xanthus.

"Dr. Osteen?"

The assistant recognized who he was.

"Where's Raeleigh?"

"She's inside."

The assistant stepped aside whereas Xanthus walked in. Raeleigh was also surprised when he entered. She looked up at him. "What's wrong?"

"Did someone from the Doyle family come?" Xanthus asked her. Raeleigh had also guessed what was going on. She replied, "Whether the people from the Doyle family come or not has nothing to do with me. After all, they needed to earn a living. Their business has nothing to do with ours."

"Do you think their appearance has nothing to do with you?" Xanthus was apprehensive rather than angry and most of his anger was due to Jared.

If it weren't for Jared, Raeleigh wouldn't have met Crevor.

Raeleigh looked at her assistant. "I don't have anything else for you. You can leave now."

The assistant turn around and left. When the door closed, Raeleigh stood up and walked toward Xanthus. "Did you put your work aside and come to me just because of this little thing?"

"You are too careless in everything."

Raeleigh felt the urge to laugh. She replied, "Actually, our life spans are destined. If I'm fated to live for a short time, it can't be altered no matter how cautious I am.

Maybe the appearance of the Doyle family is really a coincidence?"

"If it's a coincidence, I will give up being a doctor."

Xanthus firmly did not believe that Crevor's appearance was a coincidence. He had done his homework. Crevor was in Capital City before this. Why did he suddenly come here?

Raeleigh smiled disapprovingly. She took a fruit that had been washed by the assistant and placed it in Xanthus's hand. "Here's an apple to settle your nerves. There's nothing big deal. I can even handle that intractable Jepherson, never mind the Doyle family. Am I right?"

Xanthus was amused and vexed simultaneously by Raeleigh that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He glanced at her sitting there. Though he didn't eat the apple in his hand, he sat beside

Raeleigh.

"Are you not leaving?" Raeleigh became curious when she saw that he had no intention of leaving. It was only then did Xanthus put down the apple. "I can't be at ease when there's nobody to stay by your side and protect you."

"Even if you are by my side, you are no match for them if they really want to take action against me. Xanthus... I've already grown up. Just let me face these things by myself. I don't think those people can do anything to me. Believe it or not, I can protect myself and not let anyone hurt me."

"I don't believe it." Xanthus was so resolute that Raeleigh almost burst into laughter. In the end, she failed to persuade him, so she didn't say anything else.

After getting off work, Raeleigh and Xanthus had dinner outside before they went back. After getting into the car, Raeleigh told Xanthus that she was a little tired and dizzy. Then, she fell asleep in the car.

They drove to the innermost part of the manor. Xanthus got out from the car and woke Raeleigh up. She opened her eyes and leaned against the seat, not getting out of the car. Instead, she rested briefly. When she got out of the car, Jared happened to walk over.
