Dear Sweetheart Chapter 569
Chapter 569
Wende’s fingers tightened around her purse.
I know Jasper, but could the person on the other side of the table be Jefferson Hamilton of Glory
Corporation? The entire country knows Curtis crashed Jefferson and Rayna’s wedding to steal the
bride, so why is Jefferson dining with Curtis at the same table? I wonder what these men are up to.
She knew that no matter how she pleaded, Curtis would not budge to have a private conversation with
her.
Thus, Wende stood beside him and spoke frankly, “I know about Selena’s death. The police and the
media are telling the world that her death was an ident, but everybody in the industry knows the
truth.”
Curtis merely grunted, his voice monotonous. “And?”
Wende frowned at his apathy. “You know that Mr. Nicholson loves his daughter,” she said, almost
yelling. “He’s not going to let you or Faymon Group off. The Xavier family will not side with the
Nicholson family, but with Theodore still in aa, who else can help you?” Wende felt encouraged
at the thought of Curtis without his allies.
So what if Faymon Group is rich? Mr. Nicholson’s fury cannot be appeased by money.
Since hearing news about Selena, she had been waiting for Curtis toe to her and ask for her help.
Despite waiting in vain, the situation did not change, and she knew that Curtis would be worried about
the matter.
She had taken a wager bying to him by counting on the fact that Curtis had no connections and
needed her father’s connections to get rid of Noel.
At the sight of Curtis paying attention to his food over her, Wende snapped, “You know about my
father’s prestige and connections, Curtis. He’s somebody Mr. Nicholson does not dare offend. A single
word from my father would guarantee that he would not raise a finger against you—maybe he would
evene to you with an apology.”
Before Curtis could speak, Jasper, seated across from him,ughed. “That’s true. We are aware of Mr.
Sainz’s affection for his daughter. No ordinary people would dare offend you with your beauty and
background, Ms. Sainz.”
Confident in her looks and background, Wende could not resist reveling in the delight brought on by
those ttering words.
However, the person whose attention she craved the most remained indifferent toward her.
Wende could not bear his refusal to speak any longer. “I will ask my father to help you, Curtis, but I
have one condition: I want you to marry me.”
Jefferson, who had been eating in silence, could not stifle hisughter.
He wiped his lips with a napkin and grinned. “Ms. Sainz is beautiful, of noble blood, and adores you,
Mr. Faymon. Won’t you at least respond to a woman who would put aside her pride to confess to you?”
Jefferson then turned to Jasper. “What do you think about Mr. Faymon marrying Ms. Sainz, Mr.
Snyder?”
“Eh? Not bad, I…” Jasper began but suddenly felt a venomous re upon him. With a great shudder,
the fork nearly slipped from his fingers.
He gripped his fork tighter. “It depends on what Mr. Faymon thinks,” he said with a cough.
Curtis set his fork down and turned to Jefferson with an inscrutable smile. “You seem awfully concerned
about Ms. Sainz, Mr. Hamilton. Speak your mind if you’re interested in her. We’re no strangers, after
all.”
“I am not interested in Ms. Sainz,” Jefferson retorted tly. “You are the one she wants, Mr. Faymon.”
Curtis took a sip of coffee, his expression nd. “I, amoner, am not worthy of Ms. Sainz. You
seem much more suited for her, Mr. Hamilton, as it only takes a word from you to the queen to be
a duke.”
Jefferson’s gaze turned dark, and his voice turned cold. “Ms. Sainz is ady, Mr. Faymon. Surely you
could find it in yourself to be a gentleman about it. Furthermore, Ms. Sainz is beautiful. Your children
will one day rule the empire you build together.”
Curtis smiled. “Thank you for your concern, Mr. Hamilton, but I already have a child. I would love them
as long as it was my wife who brought them into the world.”
Jefferson was rendered speechless.
Curtis ced the cup on the table and nced at Jefferson before saying cidly, “Apologies, I forgot
you don’t have a wife, Mr. Hamilton. You wouldn’t understand my feelings.”
Motherf*cker!
Jefferson was so angry he almost threw his cup of coffee into Curtis’ face.
Jasper, on the other hand, continued eating in silence.

At this juncture, merely spectating is the safer option. It’ll be the end of me if I say a word.
Wende’s expression was stormy. I can’t believe how cold Curtis is being after I came to him and gave
him the chance to court me. Even worse, he made me out to be a joke with another man!
Wende scowled. “You’ve crossed the line, Curtis!” she fumed, her voice quivering uncontrobly. “My
father is the only one who can help you now. Watch your attitude toward me!”
Curtis stifled augh, but his eyes remained cold. “We both know what you’re thinking, Ms. Sainz. The
only reason why I’m not saying it aloud is that your father and I were once partners, and this is my way
of saving you face.”
Wende grew even angrier when her motive was seen through. “I’m beautiful ande from a
powerful family. How am I not worthy of you? Marrying me is beneficial for you, too, as my father will
help you.”
Helping himself to his food, Curtis replied at his own pace, “I was very clear earlier. I have a wife.”
Wende did not respond. Her fingertips turned white from being clenched around her purse.
“You may have been influenced by Adrunian values for being willing to be somebody’s mistress,
but I will not condone it,” Curtis continued while ring at her. “Though we have once worked together,
Ms. Sainz, it is not an invitation for you to inte your ego. You’d better address me as Mr. Faymon
when you see me in the future. Don’t give out the impression that your father did not teach you
manners.”
Wende turned pale at Curtis’ words. Prideful because of her position of prestige, she could not
believe he would say such harsh things about her before people who were not privy to their affairs.
Livid, she snatched a cup of coffee from the table to douse him.
Curtis reacted swiftly. He grabbed her wrist, twisted it, and the warm liquid was unexpectedly redirected
to her face instead.
Wende shut her eyes when the coffee sshed at them. When she opened them again, they were
filled with shocked disbelief.
How could he treat me this way?
Jefferson snickered. “How ungentlemanly of you, Mr. Faymon, to treat Ms. Sainz this way. You didn’t
react this way when Belle flung water in your face.”
“That depends on whether I’m dealing with family or not.” Curtis released his grip and wiped his hands
on the napkin with a look of disgust. “I can tolerate whatever my family does. An outsider, however…”
He gave a coldugh before continuing, “What reason would I have for amodating them?”
Jefferson went back to his meal without saying another word.
It no longer holds any meaning to pick a fight with Curtis. I have not only failed to anger him, but I have
also let him get under my skin instead.
Wende grabbed a napkin and wiped the coffee from her face. She was so angry that her body was
shaking.
“Mr. Nicholson is a formidable enemy, Curtis. Do you think these two can help you?” she uttered, her
eyes glinting with malice. “I want to help you, yet you treat me this way! You will regret this, Curtis. I will
be waiting when youe begging me for help.”
At that, Wende grabbed her purse and departed.
Jasper gazed at the door that had been violently thrown open, stroking his chin while his brows
furrowed with displeasure. “Though Mr. Sainz’s daughter is beautiful, she’s not exactly the brightest.”
“Don’t sugarcoat it. She’s as dumb as a bag of rocks!” Jefferson pushed his sses up, a sneer
appearing on his handsome face. “Does she think nobody will find out about her little indiscretion?”
