Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen)

Chapter 1630

Marissa didn't know how much time had passed before she calmed down. Trevor then cajoled her all the way to her bed. After she fell asleep, Trevor sat vigil by her side as he held her hand until she woke up. However, this time around, Marissa threw an even bigger fuss. Even after she woke up, she couldn't forget about Raeleigh being here. She refused to eat whatever was given to her, determined to be starved to death.

Trevor had no choice but to take Marissa to the Green Jade Garden to see Raeleigh. Jenna was informed and tried her best to stop them.

"Mom..."

Jenna stood in the way to the Green Jade Garden, blocking their entry. When Marissa saw her, she was a little unhappy. It seemed that she had always knew about Raeleigh's presence.

Marissa gritted her teeth so hard it could be heard. "Mom, I knew about this for a long time. Listen to my explanation. It's not Raeleigh's fault. It's mine. We can talk about this once we head back lest we disturb her and Santiago." she tried to dissuade her.

Marissa refused to budge and glared viciously at

Jenna.

Jenna was so anxious that her palms started to become sweaty. Her husband also wasn't here. She had told someone to inform him but he had yet to arrive.

Trevor then cut in, "Let's go back and let Jenna explain it to you. If it's really Raeleigh's fault, it's still not too late to come again."

Marissa refused to say a word in response. Jenna looked at Trevor with an awkward expression. Trevor pushed Marissa away and was about to leave when she finally blurted out, "No... no."

She would not budge until she could see Raeleigh that day.

"Mom, let's go back first. I'll explain everything but we can't talk about this here."

With all the fuss going on about her presence here, Jenna was afraid that Raeleigh would find out sooner or later and leave. Whatsmore, Jerry wasn't here to persuade her to stay.

What she didn't know was that Raeleigh was already aware of what was going on outside. Even though she was currently by Santiago's side, she found out about it anyway.

Both her and Xanthus stood in the room and listened to the ruckus going on outside.

The expression on Xanthus's face became darker the more he listened to the conversation. It boggled his mind to see Marissa could still be so unreasonable at this point.

Truly there were all kinds of people in this world. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

The Richards family was such a wealthy family, why was it that their upbringing didn't reflect that?

Raeleigh stood for a moment longer before she turned and headed back inside to Santiago's bedside. To her, the fact that Marissa came to see her was the natural course of things.

Marissa failed to enter the Green Jade Garden. She felt that it was because she had become useless that they would dare bully her. She didn't feel that she was in the wrong at all.

She was so furious that she held onto the wheel of her chair with both hands and glared at Jenna with resentment.

Jenna was at her wits end and didn't dare to add fuel to the fire.

"Get lost you... get lost!"

Just as Jenna paused in hesitation on how to make her mother leave, Marissa suddenly roared in her face, the strength behind it so explosive it shook her whole body.

Everyone on scene was petrified, even Marissa herself was shocked by what just happened.

Marissa slowly peeked over at Trevor, who stood as still as a statue. It took a very long time before she lifted her hand. She placed it in front of her own eyes and waved it back and forth.

Marissa broke out into tears as they fell from her bloodshot eyes like a rainstorm, crying loudly for everyone to hear.

This was the scene that Hansen came upon at first sight, with everyone petrified where they stood.

Trevor slowly parted his lips and he couldn't help but tremble, "Marissa..."

Marissa raised her head and looked at Trevor. She extended her hand which he grabbed and they both pulled each other into a hug.

Everyone in the vicinity was stupefied. It took Hansen a long time to recover from his shock. He then walked towards his parents and said, "I'll call the doctor over."

Trevor parted from Marissa and nodded in agreement. He then went to push her back.

Finally, Marissa had quieted down.

After the doctor's examination, he told them that Marissa was all right. As for what had triggered her fit, the doctor could not say for certain.

Marissa lay in bed in a daze, still in the midst of shock by what happened earlier, until she raised her hand.

Everyone else was with her inside the room. They observed as it took a while for her to break out from the dream-like state she's in and react to the present. Does that mean she's better?

Then Marissa said that she's hungry and wanted something to eat. Jenna went and busied herself in the kitchen to cook something up for her. When Marissa said she wanted to watch television, it would be switched on for her.

Marissa also wanted Trevor to pinch her but how could he bear to do so?

Therefore, Marissa pinched herself. It was only when she felt the sting of pain did she know that everything was real.

After that, Marissa laid in bed for two days straight.

When Raeleigh heard that Marissa could move about again, she couldn't help but breathe out a huge sigh.

That was good.

It's not that she didn't want her to get well, because it didn't matter whether she recovered earlier or later, what mattered was what would happen afterwards.

Raeleigh was melancholic. She didn't know when Jepherson would return from his business trip.

She had tried to call him but heaven knows that she lost contact before it could get through, as the number given was a blank contact.

The moment she realized she couldn't get through, she told Xanthus not to step foot outside unless necessary, lest they bump into Marissa and cause some trouble.

Raeleigh stayed in Green Jade Garden in line with her principle to avoid trouble whenever possible. But she had never expected that Marissa herself would actually come to the garden.

Once she heard about her arrival, she stood up and met her outside.

Marissa had brought along a servant. Raeleigh didn't see anyone else, hence she knew that Marissa was here at her own volition. No one, not even Jenna, was aware that she came here.

Raeleigh stood outside and closed the door to Santiago's room. She didn't want to let Santiago hear the argument that would surely break out between her and his grandmother.

And an argument was truly what Marissa came here for.

Raeleigh asked Marissa, "What can I do for you?"

Marissa snorted in cold contempt. "Are you pregnant?"

"Yes."

Raeleigh felt that this wasn't something she should hide. Even if she refused to answer, sooner or later they would know.

"Whose child is it?" Marissa continued to probe. After she recovered, she put on some makeup and looked a little more lively than usual. The Marissa that was in the wheelchair now wasn't the one that was waiting for death.

Raeleigh replied, "That's only for me to know."

"Is it Jerry's?"

"No."

"You're really a b*tch to be able to do something like this. I always knew that you're not the naive woman you want people to believe but I didn't expect you to be so shameless."

"That's enough!"

Before Raeleigh could respond, Xanthus couldn't bear to listen any longer. He stepped out from the room and glared at Marissa vehemently.

Marissa snorted coldly the moment she saw Xanthus. "Is it yours?"

Xanthus's face turned green at her words.

"Get out. This is our place now. We don't welcome people like you here."

Xanthus didn't want to talk to someone as unreasonable as Marissa. In his opinion, it was a pointless effort to talk any sense into her head.

"This is the Richards family. You are not qualified to speak here. Now take this woman with you and get out!" Marissa yelled furiously and pointed at Raeleigh. Xanthus was about to spew out his own angry words but was stopped by Raeleigh.

She looked at him pointedly, "Let's not quarrel here. I want to go in now."

Raeleigh turned around and went back into Santiago's room, Xanthus at her heels.

Once the door was shut, she looked at Xanthus and explained, "We are all outsiders here. The moment Jepherson returns, we will leave."

"What do you think would happen if you wait, especially with Marissa as she is?"

"Then what do you think I should do? I promised Jepherson to take care of him until he comes back."

Raeleigh wore a bitter smile on her face. She didn't feel there was anything wrong with any part of her, so why did Marissa constantly like to find fault with her?

Raeleigh did not emerge from the room whereas outside, Marissa hollered at her to get out and when she didn't she started to curse her out!

Through it all, Raeleigh sat inside without saying a word.
