Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1498

Raeleigh glanced at the people in the room subtly. With Trevor's support, she wasn't afraid of anything; she could do whatever she wanted.

Seeing Trevor walking toward the sofa, Jenna moved over for him to sit next to Marissa. Holding her hand, he said, "Give it a rest; you're in no good shape. No one will pity us even if we're angered to death."

With that, he looked over at Jepherson and Raeleigh. "It's decided. Your parents and us will stay here in A City; we won't be going back to Capital City for the time being. We have the Ink Garden and Green Jade Garden in the Richards Group Manor. Since you're not willing to live under the same roof as Stella, then you'll stay in Green Jade Garden while she lives in Ink Garden. Even if we go back, we won't be in your way and stay in Ink Garden."

Trevor only said so because he didn't intend to go to Capital City at all anyway.

Raeleigh thought for a moment. "Alright. But I am Jepherson's wife, after all. I want to take charge of the matters in the Richards Group Manor in Capital City; no one is allowed to interfere."

Geraldine frowned; knowing Raeleigh wasn't easy to deal with, she would just listen for now.

Marissa wanted to say something, but Trevor interrupted, "I can allow that, but we have our conditions. If you don't get pregnant within a year, you will have to return the manor to us voluntarily. Also..."

Trevor hesitated, but he still said, "If you don't get pregnant within a year, then give up your role as the matriarch of the family and let Stella take charge."

Raeleigh thought for a moment and turned to look at Jepherson, who looked nonchalant, then pondered for a moment longer. "All I have to do is get pregnant?"

"Of course, you have to give birth," Marissa added.

Jenna added, "But she needs nine months of pregnancy to give birth; it won't be fair to only give her a year."

Marissa looked at Jenna and almost started accusing her for switching sides, but she still swallowed it back.

Trevor said, "It counts even if you're pregnant."

"One year it is then. If I don't have a child, you can take everything back."

Raeleigh thought one year was enough. If he still couldn't get the issue with Stella solved within a year, she would really look down on Jepherson.

Therefore, she had never considered getting pregnant.

Moreover, it was also a way to reassure Geraldine.

As for Geraldine, she had already thought of a plan to deal with Raeleigh.

"Oh, alright, I'm tired. Since you've already agreed to our request, I'm leaving. Today..."

"Oh, please stay. We have rooms to spare, and you haven't eaten yet." Marissa took Geraldine's hand and stopped her from leaving, leading the two to stand on ceremony.

Jenna judged the situation and said to Raeleigh, "Raeleigh, why don't you stay in Green Jade Garden for now. Have the servants bring your luggage over and get your room ready."

With that, she turned her gaze to Marissa and Geraldine. Immediately, Geraldine understood. No matter what, her granddaughter was crippled, and Jenna also had her thoughts.

However, it didn't matter. They were playing the long game; as long as Stella could marry into the family, she could become the first wife one day.

"Have your dinner over there then. Jepherson, come here, lest she upsets me." Marissa was hellbent on not giving the respect Raeleigh deserved, leaving Jenna in a difficult position. She had been trying to make up for it, but no matter how, Marissa was rude.

Jenna was reminded of the past and grew somewhat uncomfortable.

"Go on, Raeleigh." Jenna glanced at Raeleigh and comforted her with her gaze.

Raeleigh nodded and followed the butler to Green Jade Garden, with Jepherson behind her, not caring what the others in the room thought. Before Marissa knew it, they were long gone.

Jepherson raised an eyebrow. "Deeply troubled."

Raeleigh nearly burst into laughter; fortunately, she was able to hold it back. Jepherson grazed her nose and ridiculed, "How can you still laugh at a time like this?"

"Am I supposed to cry then?" Raeleigh took off her jacket and put it aside. "Be nicer to me. At any rate, I'm also considered part of the family now."

Jepherson lowered his head and kissed her. "Do you really care about this?"

Raeleigh twitched her lips. "I can't do anything

about it even if I don't care, can I?"

Now that things had come to this, she could only take one step at a time. Looking at Jepherson, she asked, "When did you have the marriage certificate made?"

"I just had it done simply." He may have said so, but it was convincing. Raeleigh thought for a moment and took the household register booklet out and presented it to him. Stumped, he took a look at it. "How?"

Jepherson's eyes flashed. "No wonder."

With a smile, Raeleigh said, "Don't be too complacent. I didn't bring mine."

Jepherson's eyes darkened. "I'll have to go and check then."

With that, he got out of bed to search for her booklet in her luggage. Raeleigh tried to stop him, but he still found it.

Sitting down, she thought, "So what if he could find it?"
