Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen)

Chapter 1811

Whether Jepherson gave her permission or not, Raeleigh had already made up her mind to leave.

Jepherson blocked the doorway. "Don't go."

"Regarding our daughter's matter, it's out of my hands. I still have some other affairs to attend to. I'm going to meet my parents and send them back. As for those two boys, I'll try my best to bring them back here."

"I don't want to hear any of that. I just want you to stay."

Holding her hand, Jepherson forbade her from leaving. Raeleigh could only shake her head. "Not this time. I won't tolerate you anymore. The wound will heal slowly, but I can't stand your temper."

Raeleigh cast a glance at Shaney. "Bid dad a farewell."

"Goodbye, dad."

The little girl waved her hand and opened the door behind Jepherson, pulling Raeleigh away. Jepherson tried to grab her from behind, but he failed. Just like that, Raeleigh left.

When he turned around, Austin picked up Shaney and exited with Raeleigh.

Jepherson stared after Raeleigh without saying a word.

He still had a chance when it came to love. He would never give up.

On the way out from the hospital, Raeleigh happened to meet Rossie who began pinching Shaney's cheeks. "What a beautiful little girl."

Shaney leaned against Austin, focusing her eyes on Deanna. "Is Cedric your son?"

"Yes, my Cedric is a good boy, isn't he?"

Shaney pondered for a while without answering.

"Raeleigh, may I see my sons?"

Raeleigh looked back at Austin. "We've asked for your help in the past, but now that the dust has settled, you should return the children to Deanna."

"I'll send them back tonight."

Austin took a look at Jacky. "I know your uncle. We used to be comrades. He was my former squad leader."

"You're the soldier my uncle mentioned?"

Jacky's mother came from a family with a military background. It was just that she suffered misfortune and wound up in Waverly Village, where she married his father. Jacky had met this uncle of his, but just once.

Jacky resembled his uncle, so Austin recognized him at a glance.

"That's me."

With Shaney in his arms, Austin strode to the military vehicle with Raeleigh following behind.

Seeing Jepherson come out, Raeleigh rolled down the window while Shaney waved her hands at him. After that, she turned around and they left.

As she watched the car leave, Deanna asked in bafflement, "Is Shaney Jepherson's daughter or not? Why is she closer to Austin than Jepherson?"

Jacky looked back at Jepherson before turning around to get into his car with Deanna.

After everyone had left, Jepherson said, "Follow and observe them."

Jared came out, got into a car and followed Raeleigh and Austin's ride. Austin received news that there was someone following them. He threw a glance and told his man not to pay attention to their stalker.

They drove straight into Green House after arriving. Raeleigh emerged from the vehicle and took a look at the car parked outside the prison.

Jared got out of the car. He stood outside and fixed his eyes on Raeleigh, who cracked a smile as she turned around to leave with Austin.

Austin asked, "Does he have a thing for you?"

Raeleigh did not answer. After a while, she looked back before she turned to Austin and asked, "Can you make Jared come here? Let him work under you."

Austin stared at Raeleigh. "Why?"

"I find it weird for him to work under Jepherson. If he comes to your place, he can leave Jepherson alone. If we don't play hardball, he won't leave Jepherson's side."

"Is that so?"

Austin did not agree to her request straightaway, but he read all the existing files pertaining to Jared when he got back. In the evening, Jared was smoking outside Green House. A man appeared on the watchtower with a sniper rifle, aiming at Jared.

Jared moved his hands as he raised his head to look up. He threw away the cigarette in his hands after some time. Without warning, a bullet was fired straight into his chest, causing him to pace backwards and fall to the ground as he fainted on the spot.

All the spotlights surrounding the prison were activated and landed on Jared's body. He spat out a mouthful of blood and died soon after.

Jepherson received a call that night. He was awoken from his dream and was petrified the instant he received the call.

"Please come over." Alvin wore a mournful expression. He didn't expect that Jared would be killed.

Jepherson got up instantaneously and returned to Richards family manor. Someone had already been waiting for him inside when he entered.

Alvin had been expecting his arrival. Jepherson greeted him and went inside.

Alvin stood in front of the table and turned on the television.

Inside were some pictures of a satellite transmission showing that Jared had indeed died.

"Where's the corpse?"

"They've kept the body, claiming that they're going to dissect it."

Jepherson turned around and walked out while Alvin sat down slowly with a pasty face, giving no response.

Compared to the issue concerning Stuart, this matter was more distressing to him.

It didn't take long for Jepherson to arrive at the entrance of Green House. Reaching the door, he knocked on it and intended to enter.

However, the only person who came out was

Raeleigh. She stood at the door, facing Jepherson, "The affair regarding Jared still has a chance to turn for the better. He had just been taken away, but Austin wants everyone to think that he's dead. You got it?"

"He fired the bullet?"

"Yes."

Jepherson returned to the car and sat in it. Raeleigh stood outside for a bit. It was not until Jepherson told her to get into the car that she walked back to it.

Back in the car, Jepherson asked Raeleigh, "Are you sure he's okay?"

Raeleigh answered, "I've seen him. They're giving him an emergency treatment. The bullet wasn't too powerful at that time, consisting mainly of anesthetics. I'm not certain how the blood appeared, but it should be something that faked it."

"It seems that you know a lot when you stay by his side?" Jepherson held the steering wheel, staring at Raeleigh through the rear-view mirror. "Bring Shaney out and let me have a look."

"She's sleeping. It's so late." Raeleigh sat in the back while Jepherson was in the front, so he had to look ahead when she spoke.

Jepherson turned his gaze to face Raeleigh. "When can we take Shaney back and live together as a family?"

"I thought you would ask me about my shoulder."

As Raeleigh spoke, she opened the door and got out of the car with Jepherson in tow. Raeleigh was about to leave when he pressed her against the car and restrained her hands, not giving her a chance to move.

Raeleigh looked up at him. "Sometimes I feel like your desire for my body is the reason why you won't let me leave."

"You know I love you."

"But you love yourself more."

"I love you."

Jepherson lowered his head to kiss her. "If it wasn't like this, I can't guarantee we can be together."

Raeleigh pushed him away. "Sometimes, your behavior is totally beyond my understanding."

"It's best if you don't get it. I don't want you seeing through me. Come back with me tonight, we're going to visit Shaney tomorrow."

Jepherson opened the door and helped Raeleigh into the car. Raeleigh intended to get off at first, but Jepherson got into the car and drove away instantly.

Standing on the watchtower, Austin watched as Jepherson left. He then turned around and descended the structure.

"Do you really want us to go back first? Can you look after Shaney alone?" Lamar didn't feel reassured and so did his wife.

"Don't worry, everything is fine."

The couple exchanged a look before their eyes landed on the three children, who were sleeping soundly. When everything was settled, they got into the car and boarded a plane to leave Capital City.

After all of them left, Austin turned around and got ready to head off to another destination.

By the time Raeleigh came back the next morning, she could no longer enter Green House. Instead, Lenold was waiting for her.

Jepherson was irked when Lenold came into sight.. With a stony and frosty tone, he said, "Why are you here?"

"Thanks to you, I'm now the warden of Green House. If you need anything here in the future, feel free to come to me."

Lenold's eyes fell on Raeleigh. "Mr. Quirk had left.

His whereabouts might remain unknown for about half a year. He's on a mission now. Here's the letter he prepared for you before his departure."

It had never occurred to Lenold that this matter would be the reason he was transferred here. It was an embarrassing thing to bring up in front of others.
