Dear Sweetheart Chapter 108
Chapter 108 Get To Know Each Other Better
As soon as the call connected, Curtis asked, “Dad, are you still at Obelisk Mall? I can pick you up since
I’m passing by the area.”
Alfred was delighted to hear that.
What perfect timing for them to meet!
“Sure. Come to Divine Stews on the fifth floor. I’m having stew here.” With that, Alfred hung up.
“Is that your son?” asked Rayna.
“Yes. He said he was passing by the area. What perfect timing, huh? You two can meet and make
friends. I can even get him to send you hometer, too,” said Alfred while chuckling happily.
Oh no. I never wanted to meet his son in the first ce. I can’t believe he’sing just when I’ve
gotten this man’s contact. This is so awkward.
“Mister, please carry on eating. I need to go to the restroom.” To avoid the awkward situation, Rayna
came up with an excuse to go to the restroom to pay the bill and flee the restaurant.
Before leaving, she even informed the server to ry the news to Alfred.
Not long after she had left, the server approached Alfred’s table—table number twenty-three—and
informed him politely, “Mister, your friend left because she had some matters to attend to. She has told
me to apologize on her behalf.”
“She’s gone?” Alfred sighed while gazing at the entrance.
There goes my daughter-inw…
Rayna had just gotten onto the esctor when the elevator door opened to reveal Curtis’ figure.
However, he headed straight for Divine Stews without noticing Rayna.
Thanks to the small restaurant area and his height, Curtis immediately spotted Alfred sitting by the
window with just one nce.
“Hey, Dad.” Upon arriving at the table, he furrowed his brows at the sight of the spicy stew. “You should
cut down on these in the future. They are gastric-inducive.”
Alfred huffed angrily, “Tsk. What do you mean, cut down? You’re just as naggy as the butler. What’s so
wrong about having good food when I only have a few years left to live? Fine. I’ll just have water then!”
Massaging his temples, Curtis muttered, “That’s not what I mean.”
The mere thought of what happened earlier infuriated Alfred, and he reprimanded, “I never would’ve
answered your call if I knew this was going to happen. And now, my daughter-inw is gone.”
Curtis was befuddled.
“I say, why didn’t you text me using WhatsApp instead?”
Still, Curtis said nothing.

“Why are you just standing there? Just look at yourself. You’re tall and strong. Your only w is that
you’re too insensitive. Do you know how hard it is to meet a clever and capable woman these days?
Ugh. This is so frustrating.”
Knowing Alfred was angry, Curtis patiently pulled out a chair, sat down, and listened to the former’s
comints in silence.
All Curtis heard was something about Alfred finally meeting the daughter-inw after waiting for two
weeks. ording to Alfred, the woman was smart and thoughtful. She even chatted and had a meal
with him. Just when everything was going well, Curtis ruined it.
It was then that Curtis finally came to a realization. He asked, “Is she the woman who helped you pick
the tie?”
“Yes. She’s such a thoughtful darling. Tsk. My life is so terrible. Not only do I not have a daughter, but I
also have to worry about your marriage when I’m already so old,” Alfredined with a sigh.
Curtis could not help butugh. “If you really want to know who she is, I can just check the surveince
footage. Then you can find an excuse and get her to chat with you.”
Upon hearing that suggestion, Alfred shot Curtis a re. “Is that all you know? What if you frighten
her?”
“Dad, I’m d that there’s someone who can keep youpany, but I don’t know her personally. It’s
not safe. Besides, I’ve found you a daughter-inw,” said Curtis.
Alfred was about to give Curtis Rayna’s contact when he heard Curtis’ words. The former stopped
scrolling the phone and asked, “There’s someone you like?”
“Yes. I’ll introduce her to you in a few days.”
“Do you really like her, or are you just trying to make me stop nagging at you?” A wave of
disappointment flooded Alfred’s heart when he saw Curtis nodding firmly. Thetter did not seem to be
lying. Regardless, Alfred put his phone down.
He thought Rayna was not bad, for she was smart and thoughtful. However, he could no longer be
involved now that Curtis said he liked someone.
Ah… What a pity. There goes a couple that is a match made in heaven.
After listening to Alfred in Divine Stews that night, Rayna felt as if she was enlightened, and she knew
what she had to do. She made swift and decisive actions the moment she returned to thepany.
Soon, the five employees transferred from Yeringham’s and Horington’s branch offices had reported for
duty in Faymon Group. As soon as they stepped into the Department of Regtors, Rayna assigned
them a task, each with a deadline.
Hence, in the next few days, everyone in Faymon Group could see several well-dressed men rushing
out of each department with a mountain of documents in their arms.
“Are they from the Department of Regtors? What are they doing?”
“It scares me to see how fast they’re walking around thepany.”
Meanwhile, the originally empty cupboards in one of the managers’ offices were filled with countless
documents. Even the table was filled with them.
In the office sat Rayna, who was flipping through the documents with her brain whirring at warp speed.
She studied trantion for professional purposes. Though she learned some financial knowledge, the
exposure was not enough. Thus, it was clearly stressful for her when she was suddenly transferred to
another department and assigned to deal with everything in Faymon Group.
There were too many documents andplicated jargon she did not understand. In fact, she was on
the verge of tears during the first two days. She had to consult Curtis directly regarding many matters
and discuss them even in the middle of the night.
Thankfully, the people she hired were amazing; they helped to reduce much of her burden.
“Ms. Gand.” One of her coworkers knocked on the ss door and walked in, reporting, “Some of the
secretarial department’s electronic documents are password protected. We can’t ess them.”
Rayna asked, “Didn’t you tell them the Department of Regtors is investigating some matters?”
“I did, but they im not to know the passwords to old documents. I’ve also talked to Ms. Gardner
about this, but she says she has no ess, too.”
Rayna frowned.
How could the secretarial department not know the password to their documents? Are they hiding
something?
She did not dare to dy the matter any longer for fear of the other party destroying the documents
once they found out the secretarial department was being investigated. Hence, she texted Curtis
through WhatsApp to ask for backup.
In response, Curtis sent her a contact number without hesitation.
As soon as she added the contact, the other party sent her a text: Hello, miss. Can we get to know
each other better?
Rayna was rendered speechless.
Swallowing her impatience, she revealed her name, position in thepany, and her work rtionship
with Curtis. The contact immediately stopped messing around and replied: Please let me know what
you need me to look into. I’m great at it.
He then requested Rayna turn on the remote controlling function on herputer, which Rayna
obeyed.
Soon, Rayna was logged into the secretarial department using herpany ount, and the
password-protected documents could be seen. With that, the man started keying in the passwords.
Upon seeing the words “incorrect password” that kept popping up, Rayna could not help but twitch her
lips. Just as she was doubting the person Curtis introduced, the password was cracked.
This person is actually not bad.
Following that, Rayna regained control of theputer and inserted the sh drive into theputer.
Right after she had transferred the files, she was kicked out of the system, and theputer shut down
by itself.
Seeing that, Rayna hurriedly ejected the sh drive with sweaty palms.
I knew it. Password-protected documents aren’t that easy. The opponent must have a spy in the
secretarial department. Thank goodness I was fast enough to get back up from Curtis. If not, everything
would’ve been gone.
With that done, Rayna pushed the door open and said to her coworkers who were busy at work,
“Whenever you find a password-protected document in the future, you must inform me immediately, no
matter which department it’s from. Do not waste any time, understood?”
