Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen)

Chapter 1575

"I don't plan to do anything. Raeleigh is in need of help. I can't just stand by, can I?" Jepherson muttered as he fiddled with his ring.

Hansen turned to look at his son, "Are you sure you're the father of the child?"

"Yes."

Jepherson insisted the baby was his, but his behavior made Hansen even more worried. With an angry grunt, Hansen turned around and refused to address the matter any further.

Jenna was almost choking on her rage as well. If her son insisted that he was the dad, then why was he acting like this? Why did he want a divorce? Anyone with discerning eyes could see that he wasn't the father. If he was, he wouldn't have agreed to a divorce.

Hansen was also seething. However, he could not blame anyone else but himself for having such troublesome sons.

Over the past two days, Raeleigh had been put on a health and supplement meal plan and was being watched like a hawk. No matter where she went, there would always be someone following her. It was rare that she could go out on a stroll alone

and decided to check the progress of the hospital's construction. However, she did not expect to bump into Scarlette and Hadrian.

As soon as Scarlette saw Raeleigh, she bombarded Raeleigh with all kinds of questions. Raeleigh decided to drag Scarlette along with her as they wandered around Waverly Village.

"Raeleigh, where have you been all this while?"

"It's all old news so let's just drop it. Just pretend that nothing has happened," Raeleigh did not feel like talking about her past. Scarlette stopped and stared at her while Raeleigh walked on before Scarlette quickly caught up again.

Raeleigh accompanied Scarlette as they wandered around the streets. Just then, Xanthus saw his sister walking along the streets and was stunned. He immediately stopped her and glared at her before reaching out to grab Raeleigh's hands.

"How many times have I told you not to do anything without asking me first?" Xanthus asked Raeleigh, who smiled and feigned ignorance.

"We still have something to do, so we'll excuse ourselves first," Xanthus wrapped his arms around Raeleigh and led her back to their house. Scarlette watched them from behind, puzzled by what she just saw. Wasn't it unnecessary for him to hug her like that even if he was her brother?

"Come on, let's go."

Hadrian nudged Scarlette. When they first went outside for a stroll, the weather was slightly warm. Now it was getting cold, so they had to go home.

As they walked on, Xanthus informed her, "I already made an appointment with Jepherson. Well go through with the divorce tomorrow. He called and asked me if you have any other requests. I guess he must have prepared some alimony for you."

Raeleigh laughed nonchalantly, "If he wants to give me some alimony, I'll accept it."

Xanthus looked at Raeleigh and asked carefully, "The baby..."

"This baby is going to be an Osteen," Raeleigh said as she continued walking. Xanthus stood still as he watched his sister whom he had lost and regained. Sometimes, he couldn't quite figure out what was going through her mind.

The next day, Raeleigh and Xanthus went to the Civil Affairs Bureau and queued up for their turn. However, Jepherson was late.

Raeleigh went to take a number, took a seat and waited for her sequence to be called.

By the time her number was called, Jepherson had arrived.

Jepherson spotted Raeleigh as soon as he got out of the car and quickly made his way towards her. Raeleigh then informed him that their number had been called, "It's our turn. Let's go inside."

After Raeleigh finished her words, she shuffled inside. When Jepherson saw her unhesitating expression, he followed her in.

Jepherson's driver, who was waiting outside, was a little confused.

He genuinely did not want them to get a divorce, but he was just a chauffeur. What could he do?

The couple had only been married for a short while, but they were already about to get a divorce.

Raeleigh went inside and the officer asked them several questions. Raeleigh informed the officer that they wished to get a divorce. Jepherson chimed in, saying that he was the one who proposed the divorce and that he would give Raeleigh some alimony after the divorce.

The officer stared at the two of them in a daze. It took him a long time before he came back to his senses. Secretly, he was thinking, "Rich people are really different. They get married on a whim and once they've had enough fun..."

The officer then briefly looked through the names on the documents and realised that the man in front of him was none other than Jepherson Richards.

Jepherson Richards from the Richards Group?

The entire process took almost half a day. Raeleigh exited the building with Jepherson's cheque as well as various documents. She read through them carefully and suggested, "Since you have time today, why don't we take care of the other stuff as well?"

"Are you really in that much of a hurry?" Jepherson's tone made it sound like he was interrogating her, however he was not mad at all. On the contrary, it sounded like he doted on her even more.

Even the driver could tell that Jepherson could not let go of Raeleigh, yet he was the one who insisted on getting a divorce. What else could be done?

Raeleigh shrugged, "It's such a hassle to fix another date. Since we are already divorced, we might as well take care of the other things as soon as possible."

"Whatever I've given to you, is yours. I can do without it."

"That's very easy for you to say, but I want to make it legally mine," Raeleigh just wanted everything to be transferred under her name.

Jepherson took a look at the time and decided to go to the notary office with her. They had to come up with an agreement before they could even submit an application to have the house transferred under Raeleigh's name. The process was very troublesome. A period of inspection through the documents of the property was required before it could be transferred under her name.

After they were done, Raeleigh decided to grab some food with Jepherson.

Raeleigh decided to order salmon and a couple of healthy dishes.

However, Raeleigh began to feel queasy the moment she saw the salmon. She lurched, got up and darted to the toilet to vomit. Jepherson quickly followed behind her, stroking Raeleigh's back as she puked. Once she was done, she went back to her seat, but started to feel queasy again when she saw the fish.

Jepherson immediately asked someone to take the salmon away, whereupon some colour finally returned to her pale face.

After resting for a while, Raeleigh started digging in. Jepherson sat beside Raeleigh and kept looking at her. It was not until Raeleigh looked a lot better that Jepherson heaved a sigh of relief.

After Raeleigh was done with her meal, she called Xanthos and told him what time she expected to return home.

Jepherson then handed her an envelope, saying, "This is the agreement between you and the Richards Group. We will officially terminate our contract from today onwards. As for your compensation, I will give you 1 % of the share of all the cars you've designed in the company. I've already placed the documents of proof inside the envelope."

Raeleigh looked at the envelope in front of her and took it over, muttering, "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Jepherson did not take a single bite of food. He stood up and said, "Let's go then."

Raeleigh followed Jepherson back to Waverly Village with a stack of documents in hand. She sat in the car and admired the scenery outside the window, never feeling this relaxed. Even if they were separated, she found that she could accept it readily.

When they arrived at the entrance of Waverly Village, Raeleigh got out and looked at Jepherson through the window. She then asked, "Did your friend manage to find anything?"

Jepherson thought for a moment and shook his head, "No, I also tried asking, but he said he didn't find anything."

"Maybe he is really dead," Raeleigh speculated before turning around and walking home. She could not hide her disappointment and helplessness.

Jepherson stayed in the car as the driver closed the door.

The driver got in and asked Jepherson, "Mr. Jepherson, shall we leave?"

"Yes, let's go."

With that, the driver started the car and drove off. After taking a few steps, Raeleigh turned around and watched as the car disappeared in the distance. She held the thick envelope in her arms and gazed at it silently. Then, she looked down at her abdomen before turning around and continuing her journey home.

In the meantime, Jepherson returned to the Richards Group Manor. He got out of the car and headed straight for Ink Garden. After entering, he immediately noticed Stella and walked towards her.

"Jepherson."

Stella was surprised when she saw him. There were indeed so many surprises today!

"I came to see you."

"Me? You rarely come to visit me," Stella exclaimed in sheer delight. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

"Yes, but it's different this time. I came to send you off."

Jepherson stood there, his words final and harsh. His expression was extremely frigid, which made the air around him freeze up.
