Dear Sweetheart Chapter 139
Chapter 139 Am I A Pawn Too
Curtis quietly waited for her to continue.
Rayna listened to his soft breathing for a while. Once she recollected herself a little more, she
whispered gloomily, “Uncle Curtis, I don’t think I’m suitable for things like these. I’ve made everything
worse. This is just a worksite ident and an embezzlement case of a management-level employee…
It’s just a simple thing, and there are plenty of capable individuals in Faymon Group. So why can’t I
resolve them? I feel like a failure.”
Rayna did not even feel as bad when her father had gotten a divorce from her mother and back when
life had been even more challenging.
She felt she had done so poorly no one could bring themself to give her their approval.
“Rayna, no one in this world is perfect, and what people excel in is pointing out the ws of others,”
Curtis said. “You have to try things out to know what you do well in. Ignore what others have to say
about you. You’re already doing a great job. You’ve managed Faymon Group so well while I was in a
coma, and that is a tough job. If you’re overwhelmed by this, I’ll get Wyatt and the others to help you
out in the office.”
Curtis wanted to force her to develop into an even better individual and to make her develop an
ambitious mind. However, he did not want to force her to the end of the road.
He needed to know her limits.
Right as Curtis was about to tell her that she should rest for a few days, Rayna said, “I don’t want to
trouble you, Mr. Faymon. I can deal with this myself. You’re right. How will I know where my limits lie if I
don’t try things out?”
Hearing that, Curtis let out a low chuckle.
It seems that my worries are unnecessary. She’s capable of handling stress much better than I thought.
Rayna was flustered when she heard the man chuckle.
“Mr. Faymon, w-what are youughing at?”
“Nothing. Ask me anytime if you have anything you can’t solve. You haven’t opened the document I
gave you, right?”
“I… forgot about it.” Rayna had been too busy, and she had almost forgotten about the document
Curtis had given to her. “I’ll go to the office to check it tomorrow.”
Fearing that Curtis would hold her ountable for her forgetfulness, she quickly changed the topic and
talked to him about the documents she did not quite grasp. Curtis patiently listened to her and
exined what she did notprehend.
Rayna took a notebook and noted down the things he said—those were valuable advice.
“Sherfield Corporation is asking for coboration with Faymon Group because they saw Faymon
Group’s shares falling. They’re trying to take the opportunity to get a good deal. Their CEO wants
money and nothing else, so just ignore them.”
Curtis taught Rayna how to read the room and negotiate with others. Eventually, Rayna stopped
responding to him. The only sound he heard was her soft breathing.

Curtis froze.
He said nothing else and ended the call. Then, he sent her a message about the things he did not
manage to finish telling her.
Rayna only recalled falling asleep mid-call the night before when she woke up the next day and saw
Curtis’ message. Her face flushed from the embarrassment, and she cursed herself for how dumb she
was.
This is so embarrassing!
Worried that Rayna was still affected by the news, Jessica had woken up early to prepare breakfast to
console Rayna. Yet, to her surprise, Rayna was in a good mood. She looked as though she had won
the jackpot.
Jessica asked in bewilderment, “You rpose yourself this quickly?”
“All my worries are gone after a good night’s sleep.” Rayna smiled. Her good mood was mainly due to
Curtis’ talk with her the night before. “By the way, how goes the talk with my brother?”
“Don’t even start. I didn’t get to see him.” Jessica waved her hand dismissively as a gloomy look crept
onto her face. “I was already there waiting for him, but he told me something cropped up and went back
to the campus.”
“Maybe something did happen,” Rayna said, knowing what kind of person James was. “My brother isn’t
the type to stand someone up. Once I’m done dealing with this mess, I’ll get him to apologize to you.”
Jessica giggled. “All right! I want to have stew that’ll cost him a thousand!”
“Two thousand for each pot works too!”
As Rayna was busy, she did not get to talk much with Jessica. After the two were done with breakfast,
she hurried to the office.
Although the news about her history had been sealed away, the news about Yannick’s embezzlement
and kidnapping of minors was still spreading like wildfire.
Faymon Group’s shares continued to drop.
Naomi reported the situation to Rayna, and Rayna was equally anxious. Nevertheless, there was
nothing she could do about that. After going back to her office, she took out the document Curtis had
given to her earlier from the drawer.
She wondered if the document he had given to her was a proposal for a coboration with apany.
When she finally saw what was on the document, she froze.
It was not a n for a coboration; it was about Faymon Group’s shares.
The names of the directors mentioned in the documents were Curtis’ good friends. She needed to
negotiate with them and persuade them to buy Faymon Group’s original issue shares.
As Rayna fixed her eyes on the document, she mumbled under her breath, “Some shareholders won’t
be able to stand their ground when Faymon Group’s shares stop falling, and they’ll sell the shares they
have. Therefore, we’ll need someone to take them. The old shareholders will sell their shares, and the
new shareholders will take over those shares. Uncle Curtis won’t even need to lift a finger to change
the shareholders within Faymon Group. This is such a meticulous n.”
So Uncle Curtis knew that this day woulde. That’s why he gave me this document when he sent
me back here. He wanted me to contact those directors during this time. If Uncle Curtis could figure out
the Faymons’ n, doesn’t that mean he could have avoided the ident? Or could it be that he never
thought about avoiding the ident so that trouble would befall Faymon Group? So am I a pawn too?
The world spun around Rayna. She felt as though she had been deceived, but she soon realized that
Curtis had to havee to this conclusion because Sienna and the others would surely target Faymon
Group.
He was only the adopted son of the Faymon family, and the Faymons refused to acknowledge him.
Even if Sienna or someone else were the one behind the ident, there was no way Curtis could have
avoided it.
Even if the shareholders sold their shares, the shares would be of a terribly low price. It was likely that
Sienna and Chester would take the opportunity to buy them.
Rayna was a quick-witted woman, and she soon deciphered what was going on.
Thinking about Sienna’s and Chester’s attitude back at the shareholders’ meeting and the fact that they
hadn’t shown up recently, she reckoned that perhaps they were behind the worksite ident and
Yannick’s embezzlementing to light.
Without wasting a second, Rayna called the secretarial department. “Ms. Gardner, I need you to make
an appointment with Mr. Tyson of Wysdom.”
“Sure.”
After making arrangements for thepany’s matters, Rayna messaged Wyatt and asked him to find a
way to release scandals about Faymon Group as she hurried to the shareholders’ houses.
The police were quick to go public with what Yannick had done, and they also announced the date of
his trial, which would happen in a few days’ time.
Faymon Group’s shares plummeted again.
The factories in Horington, Yeringham, and Hallsbay were almost all shut down. Tens of thousands of
workers had lost their jobs overnight, and the management-level employees in the branchpany
had quickly switched jobs. In no time, everyone was talking about how Faymon Group was going to
copse.
Rayna did not pay much attention to news about Faymon Group no matter how bad it was. She simply
bought plenty of high-quality supplements and humbly apologized to the shareholders.
The first thing the shareholders did was berate Rayna harshly. They went on about how women could
never seed in high-ranking positions and were nothing but pests. Then, they called other
shareholders to discuss the situation. When they found out that Faymon Group was willing to reacquire
the shares from them and the price was up for negotiation, many hesitated little in releasing their
original issue shares the moment they were offered satisfactory prices.
