Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen)

Chapter 1772

Jacky walked aside, while Jepherson walked towards Raeleigh. When he arrived in front of Raeleigh, he raised his hand and touched her face. "Did they hit you?"

Raeleigh shook her head. "No."

Jepherson raised his hand and pulled her into his arms. At first, he held her gently in his arms, but later he tightened arms around her.

Jacky stood by the side and watched for a while before turning around to leave. Harvey followed suit.

Then, Jepherson released Raeleigh. He looked at her and said, "I forgive you for what you did with Jared!"

Raeleigh frowned. "I'm sorry, I have something else to do."

Raeleigh walked passed Jepherson, intending to head into the village, but Jepherson said, "I asked Jared to come back."

Raeleigh paused for a moment and turned to look at Jepherson. "That's your business. It has nothing to do with me."

"If it weren't for you, he would not have betrayed me."

"I'm not sure whether he betrayed you, but you shouldn't have broken his legs."

"You don't understand."

Jepherson said. Raeleigh then asked, "Which of us is the one that doesn't understand?"

"I was wrong!" Jepherson said as he hurried over to Raeleigh."Please forgive me."

"I'm not a kid anymore."

Raeleigh turned around and entered Waverly Village. Jepherson's car was parked outside. He did not follow Raeleigh into the village. Raeleigh walked for a while, then stopped and turned around to look at Jepherson. She intended to say something, but passed out before she could.

Jepherson quickly rushed over to her and managed to catch her before she fell to the ground.

When Raeleigh woke up, she heard the doctor talking to Jepherson. She could vaguely hear the doctor's words, "It seems that we can't guarantee your wife's current condition. This is not the first time that she fainted. Her condition is getting worse. There are many different conditions that can cause fainting, but your wife's is due to her heart problem. Not only that, she has also undergone brain surgery before. In this case, if it happens a few more times, even the best doctor would not be able to save her.

Also, I have to remind you that her condition is most affected by her mood. If she's in a bad mood, there's a higher chance of her passing out again."

After that, the doctor turned around and left. When Raeleigh heard the door of the ward closing, only then she opened her eyes. At this time, Jepherson was also looking at the door, frowning deeply.

Jepherson then turned around and looked at Raeleigh. "When did you wake up? You did not even make a sound, you're so sneaky."

Raeleigh did not answer and just lay there.

"Why are you not talking? Are you afraid?"

Raeleigh frowned.

"Come on, speak up."

Jepherson's voice was hoarse and he looked worried.

"Why do you look so worried? It's not you who is ill."

Raeleigh's voice was a little loud. Her heart ached inexplicably when she heard his trembling voice.

Jepherson's face turned pale. "I still expect you to accompany me until I'm a hundred years old."

Suddenly, the ward fell into a silence. Raeleigh watched as Jepherson walked to her side and sat down. He fiddled with the bracelet on Raeleigh's left wrist. "The bracelet won't break. My heart won't be destroyed. You can only be my person in this life. I don't have time now. I need to watch over Capital City and I need to seek revenge against the Doyle family. Once this matter is over,

I will find him."

Raeleigh did not answer but just stared at Jepherson. He touched her bracelet and said, "There must be a reason why they kidnapped you. What actually happened?"

Only then did Raeleigh tell Jepherson the whole story. Jepherson thought for a moment and said, "Crevor has gone too far. He clearly knows that you and I are close, but he still did it."

"Sometimes I really can't see through you. What exactly are you trying to do?"

"What do you think I'm doing?"

"I feel like you want someone to do the dirty work for you."

Jepherson did not answer. Raeleigh was also tired, so she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

After covering Raeleigh with a quilt, Jepherson sat on one side and held her hand. After confirming that she was asleep, he placed her hand down and got up to go outside.

Stuart immediately stood up. Jepherson sat on a chair on the side and extended his left hand. The nurse walked over and pricked the needles on him. Stuart found a blanket and covered him with it. Then, he stepped back and waited for Jepherson.

"I want you to get a gift and send it over to Madam Geraldine. Make sure to wrap it nicely, but it has to be full with maggots."

Jepherson did not raise his head. Even Stuart was surprised. "What do you mean, Mr. Richards?"

"Make sure it's disgusting."

"Got it." Stuart turned around and did as he was told.

Inside the Doyle family's villa.

One of the servants entered the house and reported. "Madam Marissa, there's a man outside the house. He said that he is Jepherson's assistant. He's here to deliver a gift."

"Jepherson?"

Geraldine frowned. "How does he know that I'm here?" "It's not surprising. It's not like you sneaked into the country. I'm not surprised that he knows."

Madam Geraldine's grandson said. Madam Geraldine smiled and said, "Is he here to threaten me?" Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

No one spoke. Geraldine said, "Let him in. I want to know what gift he bought."

"Yes, Madam Geraldine."

The servant quickly walked outside and invited Stuart in. It wasn't long after Stuart entered the house.

When Geraldine saw Stuart, she smiled and said, "You are Stuart, aren't you?"

"Yes. How are you doing, Madam Geraldine?"

"I'm fine. Since we are acquainted, you don't need to be so polite. Tell me, what brings you here?"

"Mr. Richards knows that you're in town and it's the also the end of this year, so he asked me to bring you a gift. He specifically told me to personally bring it to you."

After saying that, Stuart took out the gift.

Geraldine smiled and said with a graceful look. "Give it to me. I want to see what's inside."

Geraldine pointed. Stuart walked forward and handed the box in his hand to Geraldine. Geraldine said, "Wow! It's heavy."

"Yes, it is."

"Do you want me to open it myself?"

"Yes, if you'd like."

Geraldine smiled and started to unwrap the gift.

Geraldine slowly unwrapped the box and smelled something weird. She asked, "What's that smell?"

Stuart did not say a word.

Geraldine tore opened the last layer. She did not look happy, but she still opened it.

She thought to herself, "Did Jepherson really give me a piece of stinky tofu?"

Did he want her to eat it in front of him too?

When she finally opened the box..

"Ah!"

Geraldine screamed and threw the box out.

Geraldine did not expect that Jepherson asked someone to send her a box full of maggots. When Geraldine saw it, she immediately vomited.

Stuart did not say anything and quietly slipped out of the Doyle family's villa, while everyone rushed over to check on Geraldine. The people inside were in a mess and the people outside had no idea what happened. No one stopped Stuart when he came out.

When Stuart successfully came out of the house, he immediately got into the car and left.

When Geraldine realised that something was wrong, she quickly asked someone to clean up the maggots. She wanted to feed it to Stuart, but by then, Stuart was nowhere to be seen.
