Dear Sweetheart Chapter 440
Chapter 440
Curtis replied: Ms. Gand, I’ve been ordering lunch for Mr. Faymon every day. His taste hasn’t
changed.
Rayna: I couldn’t care less about what he eats.
Curtis: In that case, I don’t understand what you mean.
Rayna responded to the message after a short while: Something’s wrong with Mr. Faymon. He should
consider his age before learning youngsters nowadays to pick up girls. Does he think he’s capable of
doing that?
Pick up girls? Curtis knitted his brows.
Before he could answer, Rayna sent him another text on WhatsApp: He’s not the sole owner of
Excellent Entertainment Company. Does he think he can simply allocate resources avable only for A-
list celebrities to a rookie like Kelly because he’s the major shareholder? Isn’t he afraid of getting
criticized by others for acting so assertively?
Curtis fell into a daze after reading the messages. Then he couldn’t help butugh. He could imagine
the righteous indignation flitting across her face as she typed those words. Would I have acted so
assertively if she hadn’t been firm on selecting Kelly as the spokesperson? Moreover, I’m even
suffering a significant loss this time.
Curtis contemted briefly before replying: Really? Why am I not aware of that? The information I
received was that the director felt Kelly was great and was determined to select her.
Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org.
Rayna: Are you saying the director was adamant about choosing her as the female lead for such a
heavily invested film? I’ll never believe something like that even if you do! Kelly’s manager even said
Kelly managed to secure positions as the spokesperson for three luxurious brands. In my opinion, Mr.
Faymon is using the director as a front when, in fact, he’s the one funding Kelly. Unexpectedly, the
gossip spread like wildfire. Even everyone at Glory knows about this.
Curtis slightly narrowed his eyes as he read Rayna’s message.
He had ordered Gabriel to handle those matters and didn’t follow up with him afterward because he
knew Gabriel could do a splendid job.
However, he didn’t anticipate there was a spy around him who leaked out some of the information.
Curtis: Ms. Gand, I’m sure those are fake news. From my understanding of Mr. Faymon, he will
never be interested in a girl like that.
Rayna: Since you understand him so well, howe you don’t know he was interested in your
schoolmate previously?
Curtis stopped typing for a few seconds before he continued: Ms. Gand, it seems that you pay a lot
of attention to these rumors. Are you jealous to see Mr. Faymon hanging out with another woman?
Rayna responded almost instantaneously: Why should I be jealous? I couldn’t care less about an old
guy like him after we broke up. I pay so much attention to this gossip because I don’t want Kelly’s
rtionship with Mr. Faymon to turn sour after she signs a contract with Glory. If that happens, she’ll be
crestfallen and cause our products’ sales to deteriorate. We’ll talk again sometime. I still have a lot of
things to do. Bye!
Curtis couldn’t help but chuckle after reading her messages. If she doesn’t care about me, why did she
cry and wail about wanting to eat oranges? She even brought those two baskets full of oranges back.
He sighed. We’re only five years apart in terms of age. Why does she always call me an old man as if
I’m really that old?
Daystar’s higher-ups were still condemning Curtis. When they noticed him sitting with his legs crossed,
ignoring them and focusing on his phone as if he weren’t listening to a word they said, those higher-ups
grew even more furious.
“Mr. Faymon, are you listening?” One of Daystar’s higher-ups raised his voice in an attempt to attract
Curtis’ attention.
“You don’t have to speak so loudly. I heard everything you’ve said.” Curtis turned off the phone and
ced it on one side. He looked up and uttered nonchntly, “I was the one who agreed to lend Glory
a group of people from Faymon Group’s nning department.”
Those higher-ups were dissatisfied. “Mr. Faymon, we told you in advance about the bet between
Daystar and Glory. Not only did you allow Glory to sign the popr rookie celebrity, Kelly, from
Excellent Entertainment Company, but you also lent them employees from Faymon Group. What is
your intention for doing that?”
Another one of the higher-ups chimed in, “That’s right, Mr. Faymon. Daystar is also yourpany. The
situation will not be beneficial if we lose the bet. You shoulde up with an excuse to recall the team
of Faymon Group’s employees at Glory.”
Curtis tapped his fingers lightly on the tabletop and sneered. “Do you think those people from Glory are
fools? Do you think they will use theirpany’s shares as stakes to bet with you simply because of
your few words?”
Those higher-ups’ facial expressions changed a little.
Curtis added, “Glory’s branchpany did perform poorlyst year, but they’ve used a high price to
purchase a perfume recipe from a perfumer this year. In addition, there is also a change in the
leadership of Glory’s branchpany’s management. Since they dared to make this bet with you, that
means they have weighed the risk. Glory borrowed Faymon Group’s employees by offering us lucrative
pay and will even split their profit for their new products with Faymon Group. Why shouldn’t I ept a
great deal like this?”
One of Daystar’s higher-ups answered, “Regardless of how capable Glory’s management may be, as
long as they fail to achieve the target in the given time frame, it’ll be their loss. By then, we can secretly
hire someone to interfere in their business.”
Curtis shook his head in disdain to mock the other person’s stupidity. “You can scheme as you like, but
they can also devise countermeasures. If this is your menial way of earning money, then I have no
comments.”
Daystar’s higher-ups couldn’t stand Curtis’ mockery any further. “Mr. Faymon, this is also your
company.”
“Don’t you all pay attention to the changes in the board of directors?” Curtis nced at them. “Star
Culture is now the major shareholder of Daystar. I am only in possession of a small portion of Daystar’s
shares.”
Daystar’s higher-ups were dumbfounded as they thought their ears were ying tricks on them.
Curtis, who had been listening to their chatter for over an hour, had grown frustrated. He pushed his
chair back and got to his feet. “Since Faymon Group is no longer Daystar’s major shareholder, Daystar
is not qualified to interfere in whatever business Faymon Group has with Glory. If you wish to raise any
questions, you should visit Star Culture’s management board in the future.”
With that, he strode away.
At that moment, Gabriel arrived to send some documents. Upon noticing Curtis’ return, he asked, “Mr.
Faymon, are you done with the meeting?”
“Yes.” Then, seemingly having thought of something, he turned around to nce at Gabriel with an
unfathomable look in his eyes. “Did you tell anyone else about what I asked you to do?”
Gabriel shook his head firmly. “Nope. I won’t do so unless with your permission. What’s the matter, Mr.
Faymon?”
“It’s nothing,” Curtis replied half-heartedly.
Gabriel had been serving him for many years, so he knew his character well.
At the thought of the content of Rayna’s messages, Curtis figured the informant must be someone
close to him since they knew that confidential information.
He was intrigued to find out the identity of that person.
Recently, Rayna realized her baby bump was getting more apparent when she took her showers. She
wondered if her babies were bing more obedient because they were not kicking as much to the
extent of causing her to lose sleep.
Afraid the clothes she wore would expose her pregnancy, she bought a few more loose garments.
Fortunately, since she started working in Glory, she didn’t have to wear suits that often. Most of the
time, she was dressed in casual wear and ts, so she wouldn’t raise others’ suspicions.
Rayna woke up early that day and prepared some cooking ingredients. She made a pot of soup and
some grilled pork and packed them into a lunch box. She nned to bring the food to her office and
ask Carl to visit herpanyter in the afternoon.
When she arrived at thepany and stepped out of the elevator, E approached her and asked
hastily, “Ms. Gand, did you see the news?”
“I haven’t. What’s the news that made you so nervous?”
“Earlier in the morning, Kelly was caught abusing drugs and taken away by the police. This news is still
the trending headline for most websites,” E borated in an undertone while walking beside Rayna.
“What?” Rayna turned to look at E in shock. “Is that the Kelly we signed a contract with?”
E nodded. “That’s her.”
Rayna was at a loss for words.
