Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen)

Chapter 1691

"Don't you think it's time I am discharged from the hospital?"

Raeleigh asked when she woke up.

Jepherson sat up in bed. He recovered quicker than Raeleigh. He got out of bed and walked over to Raeleigh's. Then, he stretched out his hand to unbutton Raeleigh's shirt so that he could check on her recovered wounds.

"I never believed in supplements, but since it worked well on you, the results really surprised me."

Then, Jepherson let go of Raeleigh's shirt and lowered his head to kiss Raeleigh. She wanted to avoid his kiss, but he held her still. The kiss was not a light kiss nor was it passionate. Raeleigh took a deep breath. Her eyes were full of incredulity. It seemed that Jepherson had lost his mind. Furthermore, Stuart was standing outside.

The most annoying thing was that he bit her lips. She whined because of the pain.

"You...."

After pulling apart, Jepherson turned around and went into the bathroom. Raeleigh felt a flicker of irritation as she stared at the bathroom.

At this time, Jepherson shouted from the bathroom, "Stuart, can you please go and take care of our discharge formalities?"

"Yes, Mr. Jepherson."

Stuart turned around and left the ward. Jepherson said, "Since Austin works for the Interpol, then it should be easy to find him. If he doesn't come to me, then I'll go and find him. I want to ask him what are the penalties for human trafficking?

I would also like to know what is the penalty if a person knowingly violates the law?"

Jepherson then washed his hands before emerging from the bathroom. He came out and briefly glanced at Raeleigh before wiping his hands.

Then, he changed out of his dirty clothes.

"This has nothing to do with him. It is..."

Jepherson turned around and looked at Raeleigh coldly. "You were most probably one month along if we were to calculate from the date of our divorce, am I right? If so, you are guilty of bigamy.

As an Interpol officer, he should have known that it was against the law. I will not let him off the hook!

If it weren't for him, I would not have lost my wife and my child." "You're just making false accusations! This has nothing to do with him. We are the ones who had problems."

"No, we don't. This is all his fault!"

Raeleigh was speechless. "He saved me. He did nothing wrong!"

"Hmph! But he did not come out to prove your innocence. He just left like that, and also..."

Jepherson was angry, "...since you said nothing happened, then why did you tell me that he was the baby's father?"

Raeleigh froze for a moment and wanted to refute, but she gave up. In the end, she said, "He is the baby's father. If it wasn't because of him, I probably would have died in prison. I can't stand so many people humiliating and torturing me.

If it were you, what would you do?"

"Wow! You're becoming a good liar!"

Jepherson was fed up. He turned around and put on his clothes. Raeleigh sat behind him calmly as she stared at Jepherson's back. She did not know what else to say.

Jepherson stood there for a while before turning around to look at Raeleigh.

Raeleigh was staring at Jepherson when he turned around. Then, she said, "You should know that I did not want to get married to you. You are the one guilty of human trafficking. Instead, you blamed it on Austin.

Jepherson, I don't have a sense of security when I'm with you. That's the main reason our marriage did not work out.

It was never because of anything or anyone else."

Jepherson did not say anything. Then, Raeleigh asked him, "Do you know what a sense of security is?"

Jepherson did not answer. Raeleigh continued, "I get anxiety when I fall asleep at night. The moment the lights are turned off, I feel unsafe and afraid.

I always worry whenever I am with you.

I would also be very nervous whenever I was with you.

I've been absolutely terrified every moment when I'm with you.

Just because I didn't show it on my face, it doesn't mean that I am not afraid. Scarlette called me brave, but I don't think so. I feel like I worry more than anything else.

You always think about yourself. You never once think about me. You always want me to support you and trust you, but have you ever considered returning the favor?

What would you do if you were in my position? What would you do if you were sold to prison?

You tricked me into marrying you. Deep down, I know that a person is supposed to be happy in their marriage, but I feel very lonely in mine.

We're suppose to have a strong foundation in marriage, but unfortunately, we don't. We're not honest to each other, that's why it didn't work out.

Our relationship came and went like flowing water.

So we should not blame this on Austin.

Austin's appearance was just a coincidence.

Even if I did not meet Austin, our marriage still would not have lasted."

"Well, it seems like you've recovered. I have never heard you talk so much in the past few days."

Jepherson gave a look of innocence. Raeleigh's words stabbed him in the heart like knives, but his expression showed otherwise.

Raeleigh wanted to say something but Stuart came into the room and informed Jepherson that he had taken care of the discharge formalities. It was then, Raeleigh stopped talking. Jepherson quickly walked over to Raeleigh and carried her in his arms.

"Put me down! I can walk on my own!" Raeleigh demanded as soon as they left the room. Jepherson then asked Stuart to cover Raeleigh with a coat in order to keep her warm.

However, Raeleigh still felt a little cold when she went out. The coldness was unpredictable. Although it only lasted for a few days, it still made Raeleigh tremble all over. She couldn't help but lean closer to Jepherson.

Jepherson glanced at Raeleigh. "You'll feel warm in a minute."

"Let's sit down and have a talk."

"If you agree to give me back my daughter, then well talk. Otherwise, no."

Raeleigh was carried all the way to the car. After Jepherson placed her in the car, he then got in beside her. Lucy placed the rest of their belongings in the car before getting into the car as well, while Stuart got into the front seat. After that, he instructed the driver to drive straight to the hotel.

When they arrived at the hotel, Raeleigh was carried upstairs by Jepherson. Lucy and Stuart followed them as they carried their belongings.

After Jepherson placed Raeleigh on the bed, he then called the manager of the hotel to the room.

"Mr. Jepherson."

When the manager arrived, he stood there with his head slightly lowered.

Jepherson answered, "This is Lucy Wagner."

Jepherson introduced the manager to Lucy. The manager looked at Lucy and said, "Hello, Miss Wagner."

"Lucy is Stuart's fiancee. They are planning to host their wedding on the 16th of this month, which is six days away. Do you think you can make it happen?"

The manager shook his head. "Of course. It shouldn't be a problem."

Raeleigh sat on the couch. She was quite surprised that they were planning to get married so soon.

"After Lucy's wedding, she will stay here. I want you to prepare another room on the top floor for Stuart and Lucy. In addition, from today onwards, Lucy will be the deputy general manager of the hotel. You should take her under your wing. She'll be taking over this hotel once you retire."

"Yes, Mr. Jepherson."

Lucy was also very surprised. She did not expect Jepherson to plan this. She could not help but stare at Jepherson.

Stuart said, "Thank you, Mr. Jepherson."

"I already have a daughter. Please do not call me Mr. Jepherson anymore, call me Mr. Richards. I want you to tell everyone to call me that instead."

The manager was stunned. He lifted his head and looked at Jepherson. "Since when did Mr. Jepherson have a daughter?"

"I do have a daughter. I'll bring her here someday."

If Jepherson dared to say it, then the manager would believe it. The manager said, "Congratulations, Mr. Richards."

Raeleigh did not know what to say. She raised her hand to rub her temples. She could feel a headache coming on.

She somehow felt that talking to Jepherson was like talking to a wall. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

After dismissing the manager, Jepherson was full of spirit. He turned around and sat down on the chair. He glanced at Stuart and asked him about his wedding preparations.

"How's your wedding preparations coming along?"

"We've already obtained our marriage certificate and I've already taken care of everything on the Wagner family's side. Yeah, everything is good to go."

"That's good."

Jepherson saw Stuart and Lucy off. Then, he

picked up his phone and made a call to Lenold. He wanted to clarify what was going on before he could make his move.
