Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen)

Chapter 1633

"He left this behind for you before he left."

The dean took out a small booklet left by Lamarre and handed it over to Jepherson, who stood in front of Lamarre's tombstone. Jepherson took it and just said, "Thank you."

The dean smiled and glanced at the person's image on the tombstone. Perhaps they would meet again in the next life. This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

He was the strongest and most indifferent man she had ever seen.

The dean, a woman in her thirties, turned to leave after she had handed the item over to him. Her figure cut through the rain with an umbrella in hand as she headed towards her car by herself.

At a sudden thought, the aforementioned woman turned to look at Jepherson and asked, "There are still some things in Mr. Lee's ward. Do you need my help to pack it up?"

"No need. I will pack it myself later." Jepherson held his own umbrella, his eyes fixed on the booklet in his hand as the pitter- patter of raindrops sounded out from around him.

This was an autumn rain. Rains during this season could be a little cool, which made it even more chilly!

After the dean left, Jepherson put the small booklet in a pocket under his jacket and stood there for a while. It wasn't until the rain stopped that he finally turned and walked towards his car.

Back inside, Jepherson leaned back against the carseat for a while. He was more than a little tired after the past few days.

The chauffeur was the one who brought them to this place, hence he was very clear about what to do at this moment. All he had to do was to maintain his silence.

"Return to the hospital."

"Yes, Mr. Richards."

The car departed from the inner part of the cemetery grounds and passed through the downtown area before they arrived back at the hospital. Jepherson got out of the car and packed up Lamarre's curios.

Raeleigh couldn't contact Jepherson these past few days. She wasn't sure exactly what it was he had left to do. All she wanted to tell him was that she couldn't keep the promise she made with him and now something had come up, she had to leave for a while.

As she couldn't get into contact with him, Raeleigh had no choice but to leave Capital City first. Moreover, she left without anyone being informed, nor did she go to see Santiago.

In this way, no one would know that Raeleigh had left.

Jepherson was kept abreast of what had happened in the residence only after his return. By that time, even his grandmother Marissa was all right.

After he entered through the door, his eyes immediately scanned the room. He knew with just one look that not everyone was here. With the exception of his mother, Jenna, asleep propped up on the table, Raeleigh was nowhere in sight. He immediately took out his phone to call her.

More than a dozen voicemails popped up on his phone after he switched it on, notifying him that someone had tried to contact him.

Two calls were from Jared, and the rest were from Raeleigh.

Jepherson's brows twitched. He quickly went to call her back.

It rang once before being diverted to voicemail.

At that moment, Jenna slowly woke up. When she noticed her eldest son's presence, she got up and went to his side.

She could tell from this child's expression that he was in a terrible mood.

For that reason, she didn't bother him when she walked up to him.

After Jared's call got connected, Jepherson demanded brusquely, "What is going on? Why can't I get through to Raeleigh?"

Jared paused on the other line, his hesitation evident, "She disappeared and she took Xanthus with her. We have searched the whole of Capital City and even parsed through all the international exit and entry records, but we couldn't find them. I also checked at Waverly Village, but they are nowhere to be found."

"Did you contact Zorion?" Jepherson's eyes were ice cold, his mouth a flat, white line.

"I did, he is also assisting in our search for Raeleigh, but there is still no news from him so far."

"When did this happen?" Jepherson's face became even more forbidding. Jared reported, "Raeleigh left the previous day, but what instigated her to leave happened on the very day you left itself."

"Where else could she have gone?"

There was no way for him to answer this question.

"Why did she leave?"

Jepherson knew very well that since Raeleigh had called so many times, she had wanted to make it clear to him.

Raeleigh must not have initially thought of leaving, but all of a sudden she changed her mind. Something had happened in between for her to feel uneasy and left quite abruptly.

"Madam Marissa had woken up. She found her way to Green Jade Garden and shouted abuse at Raeleigh. After that..."

Jepherson didn't bother to listen to the rest of Jared's explanation and hung up the phone.

Jenna looked at her son and asked, "Did Raeleigh leave?"

Jepherson restrained the chill around his body as he turned to face his mother and replied, "She's gone. I'll find her."

"Then you must hurry." Jenna gave her son a little push. Jepherson heeded his mother's encouragement and left to find Raeleigh.

In order to track her, Jepherson went to the village in person. After his entry, he searched in every nook and cranny for the next three days, but failed to find Raeleigh's whereabouts.

Jepherson stood outside the village and kneaded his temples. His whole body seemed to emit an air of hostility that would soon explode into huge proportions.

Jared stood behind Jepherson and said tentatively, "It's not necessarily a bad thing for us not to find her. If we can't find them, neither can the people of the Doyle family."

Jepherson's headache got even worse. He had searched nonstop within the village for three days without any food or drink.

He had hope that he could find her at Waverly Village. Then it would mean that Jacky had protected her all along and he wouldn't worry so much.

But she was nowhere to be found, which meant that she had no one to protect her.

If the Doyle family had found her at this time, they wouldn't let her go. They would do their best to keep it under wraps, and no one would know even if they captured her, or whether she died!

Jepherson's heart tightened at the notion. "Find her immediately. Expand the search area. Start with the Capital City and Waverly Village. Have Zorion search the outer perimeters."

Jared turned around to act as instructed. Jepherson stood outside the village still, waiting for news.

But no matter how much they combed through Waverly Village, the entirety of Capital City, and even in other areas, they still couldn't find Raeleigh.

That year, Jepherson spent the last few months focused on his search for Raeleigh. For that reason, the situation in Capital City had reached a boiling point. Flynt took advantage of the turbulent scene, finally managed to put all his people into the political circle and consolidated the Moore family's position in the city.

As a result, Flynt had become Johan's next successor as well as Capital's City most powerful figure of the Moore family.

At the same time, the new head of the Doyle family, Crevor, had also entered the city and rose rapidly through the ranks. He seized an area for himself and successfully stepped into the political circle. He became the wild card in the political arena after the Moore family.

The Whalen family was still a serious contender on the scene. Their position was unshakeable. Everyone respected the Whalen family even in the political circle.

However, something happened that riled up the people with great enthusiasm.

The marriage of the Whalen family's daughter to a young man from Waverly Village became the city's hottest topic.

But someone claimed that the Whalen family had no choice but to do so. The unmarried daughter of the Whalen family was pregnant and had given birth to two children. The father of the child was unknown. The Whalen family threw their weight around, only to get a fool in return.

No one knew the entire story, but didn't buy into the rumours.

It's a pity that Richards family had fallen into misfortune. One of the two brothers lost his wife and the other was still comatose...
