Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen)

Chapter 1674

"There would be places for vacation and leisure in the village, but they will all be farm-style. If you go there, you would have to learn to farm and plant vegetables there. You would also have to cook by yourself."

"The houses there are very beautiful. My lover and I fell in love there."

"I hope you have a chance to go there as well."

"I don't think that my background hindered my footsteps. On the contrary, I think that my background is my most powerful asset."

Jacky said as he looked at the reporters, "I'll explain why I didn't participate in the last election for mayor."

"One of my closest friends died at the hands of another friend in order to save me. I was also seriously injured at that time and I wasn't in a good place. I was forced to miss the election because of it. It wasn't because I had given up."

The crowd burst into an uproar, and then someone asked, "Mr. Scott, if, and I really mean if you were to become Capital City's mayor, is it correct for us to believe that you'll have achieved your goal and will do everything you can to develop Waverly

Village?" "This question is an interesting one. If you're implying that I would put Waverly Village above Capital City, I must admit that I would. I would strive to protect the ecosystem, culture and simplicity in the village."

"But I will also create better opportunities to develop Capital City. Since I have come to Capital City, I will do my job well. Regardless of what I'm doing, even if I were to end up selling soap, I'll strive to be the best one possible."

"Capital City is indeed very prosperous, but its security is not that good. There are plenty of affluent people here, but there are also many old people who are left to fend for themselves. This place is also full of talented people, but many of them have left, whereas the ones that have returned..."

"I believe that that actions speak louder than words."

"That's why I don't have any plans or manifestos. I hope that I'll get the chance to do something beneficial for Capital City, and I also hope that it will be a strong supporter for Waverly Village."

"Mr. Scott, do you mean that if you become the mayor, the relationship between Capital City and Waverly Village will be mutually beneficial?" Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

"Yes, of course."

Jacky was absolutely certain.

Raeleigh watched Jacky on the television. As long as it was a mutually beneficial situation, the audience would still trust Jacky.

The most important thing was mutual benefit.

"Raeleigh, how good do you think Jacky's chances are?" Jepherson asked her. Raeleigh answered, "If you weren't absolutely confident that he'd win, you wouldn't be sitting here watching TV so leisurely."

Jepherson smiled and continued watching TV. He didn't say more than a few words for the rest of the afternoon.

Three days later.

Jacky won the election.

Due to his youth, the media called Jacky's sudden appearance a mystery. This was also what made him stand out the most.

Jepherson received a phone call a few days later. Jacky had invited a few important businessmen from both Capital City and Waverly Village for a meal. The invitations were sent out a little while later.

Raeleigh was not surprised when she saw the invitation.

After all, these things had already occurred to her long ago.

Jepherson RSVPed quickly and wanted to bring Raeleigh along with him, but she didn't want to go. "I don't want to go. You can go. I'll wait for you in the hotel and rest. I've been paying attention to Jacky these days and haven't had a good rest."

Actually, Raeleigh didn't want to attend any occasions with Jepherson. She didn't want to have anything to do with him either. However, based on the current situation, she couldn't leave. She was like a bird trapped in a cage, forbidden to go anywhere. She had to go along with Jepherson's arrangements. Even though her general lifestyle didn't change much, she had changed a lot on the inside.

She'd originally been flying freely in the sky, but she was now trapped in a cage.

To other people, it looked like she was the recipient of endless love and doting, but it wasn't what she wanted.

There was love waiting for her somewhere, but it wasn't the one that she wanted. It didn't matter how much of it she received.

Raeleigh didn't want to attend any sort of banquet. She insisted on staying in the hotel.

Jepherson put his coat on the table. "Then I won't go either. I'll stay with you."

What could Raeleigh say? In the end, she went with him.

At the banquet, Raeleigh was surprised to see Zorion and Rossie get out of the car. She hesitated for a moment when she saw them and waited for a while at the door. When Zorion and Rossie came over, she went over and greeted them.

"Long time no see."

Raeleigh talked to Rossie and let go of Jepherson's arm. Rossie also left Zorion's side and replied, "I knew that you came back and wanted to visit you. However, my semester has just started and I've been really caught up with my research so I didn't have the time to come over."

Raeleigh smiled. "It's okay. Let's catch up."

They linked arms and walked ahead. Zorion paused and looked at Jepherson. "Looks like they've kept in touch."

"Wouldn't you know if they were in contact?" Jepherson didn't even need to ask. He knew that they'd definitely kept in touch with each other and corresponded frequently. Otherwise, they wouldn't be so familiar with each other.

After that, Jepherson strode inside with Zorion trailing him.

They walked in through the special passage so they could be left alone and wouldn't run into any

obstructions.

As they walked, Zorion said, "If I'd known, I would've told you long ago. I really didn't know."

Jepherson continued walking and said nothing.

In fact, he hoped that Raeleigh had kept in touch with someone here. At least it showed that she cared.

He was just afraid that she hadn't even bothered asking about him.

Raeleigh walked in front. She was wearing a short, tight-fitting dress with Jepherson's coat draped around her shoulders. Her heels were made of crystal and she held a silvery clutch. Her hair had been casually styled in an updo.

Rossie was in a long dress. Due to her height, she liked to wear long skirts. When they stood together, they looked completely different, but they each had their own merits.

As they walked, Raeleigh asked Rossie, "How are your studies coming along? I heard that you wanted to get a scholarship. Did you?"

"It shouldn't be a problem. I feel much more relaxed without Deanna competing with me."

Raeleigh looked at her and said, "Congratulations." "It's nothing. Congratulations to you too."

The further away they got from the men, the more excited their chattering became. They talked about everything under the sky.

Zorion asked Jepherson, "Are you going to just keep her locked up like this for the rest of her life?"

Jepherson said, "You can't even deal with your own matters, yet you're sticking your nose into mine?"

"I don't mean to be nosy, but you can't go on like this. I heard that you've been bringing her with you everywhere you go and it's obvious that she doesn't want to be with you. Do you think I can just let things be?"

Jepherson stopped and turned to look at Zorion. "Do you know why some people can live till a hundred and some people live shorter lives?"

Zorion's mouth twitched. "Are you telling me that if I keep asking about your matters then I won't live a long life?"

Jepherson didn't say anything. Zorion followed him and said, "Don't forget that she's a person. If you keep her locked up like this, she'll fall sick eventually."

"Get lost!"

Jepherson walked away. Zorion followed him, staring at his back helplessly. It would take time for him to see the light. As Rossie had once said, certain relationships needed effort from both parties to work out.

If he kept imprisoning Raeleigh like this, he'd eventually scare her off for good.

Zorion hoped that by the time Jepherson understood this, he would still have the chance to get Raeleigh to stay.
