Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1838

Raeleigh was stopped by Jepherson's men at the entrance of the village. 'I knew it wouldn't be easy for me to run away.'

"Madam Raeleigh, Mr. Richards is waiting for you."

Raeleigh had no choice but to go back with them. At the same time, Jepherson sat on his wheelchair outside the village with a blanket on his lap and upon seeing Raeleigh, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Raeleigh walked up to him, "Don't be complacent. I'll leave one day."

Shifting his gaze to Raeleigh's belly, Jepherson stretched out his hand and pulled her to him. Despite being too weak to walk, he had a firm grip. Raeleigh lost her balance and fell onto his lap. She tried to escape, but he said immediately, "Don't move."

Although his voice sounded terrifying to others, he was trying to negotiate.

Everyone turned around to look at them, and Raeleigh blushed.

Jepherson covered her body with the blanket, then placed his hand onto her belly. Raeleigh tensed up immediately. She raised her hand and grabbed his wrist as he pressed his hand on her lower abdomen and felt the baby's movement carefully. As expected, there was a pulse.

Jepherson stared at Raeleigh with his dark eyes, then asked, "Is it more than two months old already?"

Raeleigh did not answer and pulled away his hand.

She stood up and turned around, walking back into the house.

After sitting outside for a while, Jepherson called Scarlette and Hadrian. At that time, neither of them knew that Raeleigh had already returned home safely, and they were still busy searching for her. Since Jepherson did not call off the search, they did not come back.

This time, when Scarlette finally reunited with Raeleigh, she was so excited that she cried.

Raeleigh sat there with a neutral expression on her face, holding back her emotions. She could not believe that after so many years, Scarlette still cared for her so deeply.

However, the doctor told her not to be too excited, so she would not cry. She only stared at Scarlette until Scarlette hugged her and cried. Then, she said slowly, "The doctor told me not to cry. You don't have to cry either. It's bad for the baby."

Finally, Raeleigh told the truth. Earlier, Jepherson did not force her to do the maternity check because she refused to.

Scarlette was surprised to hear that Raeleigh was pregnant.

"Raeleigh, will it be dangerous? At your age..."

"Scarlette, have you been living too comfortable recently?" Jepherson questioned in a cold voice before Scarlette could finish her words and she immediately shrank with fear. She carefully looked at Raeleigh and said, "It should be all right. You are only thirty, right?"

Raeleigh did not answer. Instead, she glanced at Jepherson. Scarlette asked Raeleigh again, "Do you feel uncomfortable..."

"Scarlette, leave," Jepherson cut her off.

Then, Hadrian added, "Scarlette, come out for a moment."

It was only then that Scarlette got up and left. After Scarlette and Hadrian left, Jepherson said to Raeleigh, "Let's go do a check-up later and see if the baby is well. Nothing will happen to you at your age."

Raeleigh retorted, "I never said that anything would happen to me. You're the one who said that."

She lowered her gaze and looked around. "Since you called Hadrian and Scarlette over, it means that you are recovering well. I can finally take a rest. I will not cook today."

Raeleigh got up, feeling exhausted.

She went back upstairs and lay down to have a rest.
