Dear Sweetheart Chapter 176


    Chapter 176 This Is So Embarrassing


    Rayna had a nightmare again.


    This time, she woke up to find herself clinging to Curtis like a sloth.


    They had split the bed into two sides. Curtis was still sleeping on his side with his hands crossed on his


    abdomen. On the other hand, Rayna, a terrible sleeper, had upied his space.


    Her face flushed. She quickly moved her leg away from him and inched to the side. Is he having a deep


    sleep?


    Rayna looked at Curtis and realized he was still sound asleep. Looking at his long eyshes and


    alluring Adam’s apple, she had the urge to touch it, and she did.


    In the next second, the man grasped her wrist.


    Curtis gave her a sideway nce and said in his raspy voice, “Ms. Gand, do you like to touch


    people’s Adam’s apple that much? What bad habit is this?”


    “I’m just curious.” Rayna smiled sheepishly. “Mr. Faymon, you slept very soundly.”


    “I only fell asleep at five in the morning.” Curtis shed her a half-smile. “Someone couldn’t sleep


    properly and kept nuzzling up against me. She even kicked me off the bed once.”


    Rayna was dumbfounded. I guess he’s not lying to me, judging from my pose when I woke up this


    morning.


    “Um, I’m gonna go wash up.” Rayna made up an excuse to sneak away. Yet, as soon as she got up,


    Curtis pulled her toward himself.


    While grabbing her hand, Curtis stared at her intently. “Aren’t you going topensate me?”


    “I-I-I will,” Rayna stuttered uncontrobly. Her body stiffened as she felt too embarrassed in that


    position. “I’ll prepare meals for you when we—mmph!”


    Curtis forced her to lean down, then pressed his lips against hers.


    Rayna’s heart pounded wildly when she felt his breath. Although she felt a little nervous, she couldn’t


    help responding to his kiss.


    After that kiss, Rayna propped her hands on either side of the man’s head. “Mr. Faymon, if you don’t


    mind…”


    She wanted to tell him something.


    Curtis stared at Rayna intently to give her courage. She prepared herself and was about to continue


    when she suddenly felt something warm flowing in her lower abdomen. I think…


    Curtis seemed to have felt it too, and his expression changed subtly.


    Rayna scrambled out of Curtis. When she saw the bloodstain on his smokey-grey pajamas, she


    covered her face with her hands. “Oh my gosh! This is so embarrassing!”


    “It’s not like this is my first time seeing you being embarrassed.” Curtis appeared nonchnt. There


    was a glint in his eyes as he looked at the blood on his pajamas. “It gives me a good idea.”


    Rayna didn’t care about what was on his mind. She hurried to the bathroom to calm herself down.


    After Rayna finished washing up and walked out, she saw a doctor in the bedroom, chatting with Curtis,


    who was in his wheelchair. They seemed to have finished their conversation the moment she


    approached them.


    Rayna uttered, “I just got my period. Mr. Faymon, aren’t you exaggerating by getting a doctor here?”


    Despite saying so, she felt a little touched.


    After the doctor left, Curtis said, “I invited the doctor for something else. You just need to sit next to me


    and watch when we go downter. Don’t say anything.”


    Rayna was a tad disappointed, so she only hummed in acknowledgment.


    A group of people had already gathered in the living room when they went downstairs. Compared to


    the lively atmosphere the night before, it was as if dark clouds had loomed over the ce at that


    moment. Everyone had a different expression.


    “Curtis.” Chester stepped forward from the crowd, seemingly wanting to tell Curtis something.


    Curtis replied in a calm voice, “Let’s talk after breakfast.” As he spoke, he brought Rayna to sit at the


    dining table before ordering the housekeeper to serve breakfast.


    Rayna’s expression turned grim when she noticed Alfred was also in the living room.


    She whispered to Curtis, “Should we ask Old Mr. Faymon toe over and have breakfast?”


    “Since Chester is here, I bet he won’t be in the mood to eat.” Curtis picked up a spoonful of oatmeal to


    feed her. “He won’t be starved to death by skipping a meal anyway.”


    “Mr. Faymon, I can do it myself.” Rayna wanted to take the spoon from Curtis so she could eat on her


    own, but he gave her a look, which made her retract her hand. Ugh, fine. I’ll let him feed me, then.


    Does he have to scare me with that look?


    The duo finally went to the living room and sat beside Alfred after they finished their breakfast.


    Chester walked over, then lowered his head apologetically and said, “Curtis, it’s my fault for failing to


    discipline Jason and letting him do such a despicable thing.” It was the first time Rayna had seen him


    humble himself to make an apology to Curtis.


    After that, Chester said to Rayna, “I’m sorry, Ms. Gand. I’ll bring Jason over to give you a sincere


    apology when he wakes up.”


    Curtis’ gaze turned icy. “Uncle Chester, this is not a trivial matter, so it can’t be settled with just an


    apology.”


    “Yes, yes, I know,” Chester responded respectfully. “But Jason is still unconscious until now. He’s


    severely injured because you shot him twice. We’re a family. Why must—”


    “Why must I make a fuss about it? I’ve been going easy on him since he’s my cousin. Yet, he shows


    me no respect!”


    Curtis then asked someone to set up the projector.


    A minuteter, the projector disyed the video footage of Jason bullying Rayna in a private room.


    Although the video was muted, everyone in the living room could see whatever had happened through


    it.


    Alfred let out a sigh. “This boy…”


    Chester’s expression took on a subtle change. Soon after, he smiled and imed, “That looks like


    friends squabbling with each other. Perhaps you’re making a big deal out of it and misunderstood


    something, Curtis?”


    “Uncle Chester, you should get a checkup at the hospital if you’re blind!” Curtis roared without showing


    Chester any respect. “If I had ignored the fact that we’re family, I would have fired those two shots atProperty belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    his heart!”


    Chester tensed up when he heard that.


    “Jason was wrong, but was he the only one in the wrong?” Sienna piped up. “The private room was


    dimly lit. Jason might have mistaken her for someone.”


    “Oh, how about this time, then? Did he mistake her for someone else again? There are street lights


    every few meters across the road. Is he blind?” Curtis retorted with a smile. “Aunt Sienna, I have no


    objections to you defending Jason since he’s your nephew. But you have to consider whom heid his


    hand on and whether he could do so to that person!”


    His words sent a chill down everyone’s spine.


    Curtis usually kept a low profile and rarely returned to the Faymon residence. Even if he went back for


    dinner, he would treat everybody with deference. Everyone was terrified to see him exuding immense


    murderous intentions that day.


    “Curtis, how could youpare that woman with your cousin?” Brooklyn got up from the couch. “Are


    you even from the Faymon family? How could you side with an outsider? You imed that Jason did


    wrong again, but I think Rayna is at fault too! She was married to Julian, and she caused amotion


    when they divorced. Who knows if she’s taking revenge on the Faymon family on purpose? Maybe the


    car ident you got into was orchestrated by her because she intends to take over Faymon Group.”


    Rayna’s expression darkened. Curtis held her hand tightly because he didn’t want her to say anything


    in response.


    Alfred yelled, “What nonsense are you spouting? It was an ident. Don’t me it on Rayna. I’m the


    one who appointed her to be the acting CEO. Do you have a problem with me?”
