Dear Sweetheart Chapter 414
Chapter 414
Soon, it was already past nine at night. As it was gettingte, Rayna felt that it was time for her to head
home.
Kristie did not stop her from leaving but merely asked to catch up at her ce next time when she was
less busy. Rayna readily agreed.
As Curtis was intending to leave as well, he grabbed hisptop and left together with Rayna.
Rayna was about to press the “close” button in the elevator when Curtis stepped in. The woman froze
for a second before saying, “I’m going up. Why did youe in? You, you…”
“I didn’t want to wait outside,” Curtis replied cidly before continuing, “It’s warmer inside the elevator.”
How can it be cold outside when there’s central air-conditioning in the corridor?
Raynamented inwardly while watching the elevator numbers light up in ascending order.
Even though there was an arm’s length distance between the two of them, Rayna could still smell the
faint scent of tobo on Curtis and feel his cold aura.
The woman shifted her gaze from the disy panel to the elevator door. From the reflection, she could
see Curtis looking down while scrolling on his phone with his slender finger.
The man had a tall build and carried himself in a mature and elegant manner.
Rayna started spacing out as she recalled that night when Curtis grabbed her feet and kissed her
tenderly while looking at her affectionately as if she was the most precious treasure in the world.
Was that really him?
If it was him, why did he go off the next morning after leaving some money behind without sparing a
thought for my feelings? Moreover, he looked really annoyed when we met again after we returned to
the country.
As Rayna’s eyes shifted downward, she saw that Curtis had buttoned his shirt to the top, and his neck
was barely visible.
Underneath that shirt were the man’s abs and Apollo’s belt that she had already seen and touched
before.
Just then, Curtis looked up at the elevator door and met Rayna’s gaze. A faint smile appeared on his
face as he asked, “Ms. Gand, aren’t you going to wipe off the drool on your face?”
Rayna wiped the corners of her lips at once but realized that there was nothing there.
When she turned around, she noticed the teasing glint in Curtis’ eyes and could feel herself simmering
in anger.
What a scoundrel!
Just then, the babies in Rayna’s belly started throwing tantrums andunched a few powerful kicks
against her stomach wall.
Rayna furrowed her brows as she clutched her belly with one hand.

Curtis’ expression changed when he noticed that. “What’s wrong? Are you not feeling well?” he asked
softly and leaned in.
“I’m all right,” Rayna replied calmly, not wanting him to sense her difort. “I think I ate too much just
now. I’m just having a bit of indigestion.”
The gaze in Curtis’ eyes darkened as he recalled that the woman was also feeling unwell earlier in the
afternoon.
When the elevator door opened, the man held Rayna by the arm and said, “Let me walk you back. I’ll
leave after that.”
“No need.” Rayna felt uneasy at the thought of Curtis holding other women the same way before and
instinctively flung his hand away. “I can walk on my own.”
After saying that, she walked out of the elevator and disappeared from Curtis’ sight after the elevator
door closed.
The man’s hand froze midair before he lowered it slowly. He was feeling frustrated as he could not
understand why he was still so concerned about Rayna when they have already broken up.
Gabriel, who had been waiting for a while outside the condominium, opened the car door at once when
he saw Curtis walking out.
“Mr. Faymon…” Gabriel greeted the man and was going to ask him about Kristie when he noticed the
cold expression on his face. The assistant swallowed his words as a shiver ran down his spine.
He could tell that his boss was not in a good mood and decided that it was safer for him to keep quiet.
Gabriel got into the car cautiously and drove off silently, making sure that he did not do anything that
might trigger Curtis.
The dome light in the car was switched on, illuminating Curtis’ face.
The man was sitting with his legs crossed as he reviewed some documents. As his neck was aching
after working for a while, he turned toward the side and saw that it waspletely dark outside.
After staring out of the window for a few minutes, Curtis reached into his suit pocket and took out a blue
silk scarf. It was the only item belonging to Rayna that was still with him.
As he thought about the moment in the elevator when the woman flung his hand away, his expression
turned gloomy.
Letting out a deep sigh, the man muttered under his breath, “She won’t know how much I love her.”
If he did not have any feelings for her, he would not have traveled to Yartran to help her just because
he was worried that something bad might happen to her. If he did not love her, he would not be so hung
up on her even though they had already broken up. In fact, at times, he missed her so much that his
heart ached.
However, Curtis did not want to be the one giving in all the time.
However, he had his pride as a man, and it was uneptable to him that Rayna kept helping other
men.
Besides, the woman had aplicated rtionship with Jefferson.
Gabriel had heard what Curtis said and knew at once who the “she” his boss was referring to was.
“Mr. Faymon, honestly…” Gabriel wanted to tell Curtis that Rayna still had feelings for him. However,
he swallowed his words when he remembered what Ste had told him previously.
He was worried that he would be bearing the brunt of the couple’s rage if he interfered and things
became worse between Rayna and Curtis.
“What did you want to say?” Curtis asked.
“Nothing. I wanted to inform you that we will be reaching soon.” Gabriel cleared his throat before
continuing, “I was worried that you might have fallen asleep.”
Curtis hummed in response. Suddenly, he noticed a faint fragrance of bluebells that reminded him of
the perfume Rayna frequently used. At the same time, he had also detected the pungent smell of
incense.
With a deep crease between his brows, the man asked his assistant, “Who else sat in your car today?”
“Ms. Zink returned to the country this morning, and I picked her up at the airport.” Noticing Curtis’ grim
expression through the rearview mirror, Gabriel could feel his heart leaping to his throat. Proceeding
cautiously, he said, “Umm… I also ran into Ms. Gand and gave her a lift back to the city. Mr. Faymon,
is there a problem?”
“Stop the car!” Curtis ordered coldly.
Gabriel mmed on the brakes immediately. When he turned around and was about to ask Curtis what
the matter was, he saw the man removing his jacket and getting out of the car, leaving his jacket
behind.
“Come back and pick me up in another car,” Curtis said to Gabriel with a sharp gaze in his eyes. “In the
future, apart from Rayna and me, no one else is allowed to sit in my car. If you are intending to fetch
someone else, you can either use thepany car or your own car. Also, send my car for a car wash
and get new leather covers for the seats. Do you understand?”
“Yes. Mr. Faymon, is there anything else?” Gabriel answered weakly.
“Get lost right now ande back in another car!”
The assistant quickly drove off while Curtis remained standing in the cold breeze at the roadside.
Gabriel was speechless when he looked at the GPS and saw that they were only half a mile away from
their destination.
My dear Mr. Faymon, we only had half a mile more to go. The mansion is just around the corner! Did
you really have to get out of the car?
But…
As Gabriel thought back about Curtis’ usual behavior and style of doing things, he felt secretly
gleeful. It seems like Mr. Faymon isn’t interested in Ste at all. If that’s the case, what’s with the
news?”
Rayna wanted to rest at home for two days before visiting Linda.
Unexpectedly, an assistant from Glory called her, reminding her that it was the day of thepany’s
general meeting and asking if she would be going to the office that day.
Rayna was still half asleep when she answered the phone and was wondering who Glory was and why
they wanted to meet her.
She only snapped out of her groggy state after a while and remembered that Glory was one of the
companies that Boniel had allocated to Jefferson. The headquarter of thepany was located in the
capital and had a branch office that was located in the financial district of Norwal City.
Rayna called the assistant back at once and was informed that the meeting would be held at ten in the
morning. She heaved a sigh of relief before getting out of bed to wash up and have breakfast.
Before she left the house, she picked up a pair of high heels, but after a moment of hesitation, she
decided to wear a pair of ts instead.
After all, she was carrying three babies in her belly, and it would be a disaster if she was not careful
and fell.
When Rayna got to the garage, she swept the dust off her Mercedes-Benz before driving off.
As it was already past nine in the morning, the peak hour for everyone to get to work was already over.
While waiting at a traffic light, Rayna took out her lipstick from her bag for some touching up. From the
corner of her eye, she noticed a cool-looking red sports car stopping beside her.
Eh?
The woman looked toward her right and realized that the sports car was simr to the one Wyatt had
previously driven.
