Dear Sweetheart Chapter 581
Chapter 581
“Yes.”
Curtis called the risk control department through the internal line. “Tell Emerald Clocklore toe to
see me at my office.”
Gabriel remained fixed in his spot, anxiously awaiting until Curtis finished his phone call. After Curtis
set the phone down, Gabriel cautiously asked, “Mr. Faymon, what happened?”
“Jefferson took Rayna away.”
Curtis tapped his fingers on his desk restlessly.
Without bothering to see Gabriel’s response, he questioned, “Did you notice anything unusual about
Jefferson when you delivered some files to him the day before yesterday?”
“No. Mr. Hamilton acted the same as usual,” Gabriel answered. Something urred to him as he
added, “But Mr. Faymon, I saw the morning news reporting that Glory has a new CEO.”
Curtis’ expression turned as ck as thunder. He mmed his fist onto the desk in anger and growled,
“He doesn’t care about the bet he made with his father anymore. All he wants is to take Rayna away
with him!”
“I’m sorry, Mr. Faymon. I had no idea I’d sleep that soundlyst night,” Gabriel said apologetically. He
wasn’t usually a sound sleeper.
He might have been unwellst night, as he felt drowsy and slept until the following morning.
This morning, he immediately called Curtis once he noticed the missed calls.
Ste stated that she did not realize his phone was turned off. Otherwise, she would have helped him
turn it on and charge the battery.
Gabriel pulled out his phone and said, “I’ll call Air Traffic Bureau—”
“After Jefferson took Rayna with himst night, I informed all the necessary ces,” Curtis cut in. “They
didn’t find anything.”
“Then how did Mr. Hamilton leave with Mrs. Faymon?” Gabriel was confused. “Could they still be in
Norwal City?”
Curtis replied grimly, “Norwal City is my turf. Jefferson wouldn’t be so foolish to stay here.”
Right then, someone knocked at the door.
Knowing it was most probably Emerald outside, Curtis ordered Gabriel to continue looking into the
matter before dismissing him.
When Gabriel walked out, Emerald entered the office.
“Mr. Faymon, you asked to see me?”
Curtis gazed upward and scanned her appearance. She was dressed in a sharp business suit, giving
her a youthful but professional air. Her stance was distinctive, with legs slightly apart. This posture
seemed toe naturally to her as a result of past training.
“How many people did Jefferson nt in Faymon Group?” Curtis asked. “Anyone in the upper
management level?”
Emerald replied, “No, I’m the only one.”
Curtis rose to his feet and walked past the table to stand in front of her. Looming over her intimidatingly,
he demanded, “Where did he take her?”
“I don’t know.” Even someone trained like Emerald couldn’t help but retreat in the face of Curtis’
imposing presence.
“Think about it carefully before answering me.” Curtis didn’t hurt her, merely added calmly, “Norwal City
isn’t Jefferson’s turf. Whether or not you get to leave the city in the future isn’t up to him.”
Unfazed, Emerald told him, “Mr. Faymon, I don’t know where they are. Even if I do, I won’t tell you
anything. Ms. Gand will only be happy with Mr. Hamilton.”
“Rayna is my wife,” Curtis snapped, doing his best to tamp down his frustration. “She’s pregnant and
shouldn’t be traveling around.”
Emerald chuckled. “Back when Ms. Gand was taken to the police station, she was also pregnant. I
heard that she called you several times. Why didn’t you answer her calls, Mr. Faymon?”
“I was overseas back then. My phone wasn’t with me.” Curtis admitted that he was at fault back then.
“To put it simply, you don’t care for Ms. Gand enough,” Emerald said frankly. “Mr. Hamilton
transferred me to Norwal City so I could protect Ms. Gand covertly. He told me that she is extremely
important to him, so we must be willing to risk our lives to ensure her safety.”
After a pause, she added, “Back then, if I hadn’t snuck into the police station, Ms. Gand’s death
would’ve been an unsolved mystery.”
This is from N?velDrama.Org.
“It was you.”
Curtis knew that someone had helped Rayna when she was locked up at the police station.
He had guessed that it was Jefferson’s subordinate, but it didn’t ur to him that it was Emerald.
“Thanks for protecting her,” Curtis thanked Emerald sincerely. “It was an oversight on my end for not
arranging for someone to protect her. However, that doesn’t mean I don’t care about her.”
On the contrary, he cared about Rayna more than anyone else.
Emerald shook her head. “You don’t have to thank me. I was merely protecting our future Mrs.
Hamilton. Mr. Faymon, you can easily find someone else like Ms. Gand, so I hope you can give up
on her.”
Unlike Ringo, who had dedicated the past decade of his life to working for Jefferson, Emerald had only
been employed by him for a short period of time. Nheless, Jefferson’s subordinates were aware of
the hardships he had gone through and sympathized with him.
No matter where he wanted to hide Rayna, they would do their best to help him achieve his goal.
“Why don’t you say that to your employer?” Curtis retorted, his gaze glinting icily.
“Ms. Gand belongs to Mr. Hamilton,” Emerald replied. “Besides, Mr. Hamilton promised to deliver the
children to the Faymon family once Ms. Gand gives birth to them—”
“I want the babies and Rayna!” Curtis interjected frostily. “He might have had a miserable childhood,
but that doesn’t mean everyone has to pity him!”
Curtis had to take deep breaths to tamp down his anxiety. “When he was young, his father adored him
immensely. I, however, watched my fathermit suicide right in front of my eyes!”
It took me a long time to convince myself that Jefferson was also a victim and that we should both take
a step back instead of pursuing the matter. I can tolerate anything, but I can’t let him take my wife away
from me!
Before Emerald could reply, Curtis pinned her with a withering look. “Once you contact Mr. Hamilton,
tell him that our deal is off. He has gone too far this time, and I won’t hold back when we see each
other again!”
Fear gripped Emerald’s throat as she took in Curtis’ fury. She desperately hoped that Jefferson and
Rayna would stay clear of him, and he wouldn’t be able to track them down.
Rayna had no idea how long she slept. When she woke up, she was already in an unfamiliar room.
Feeling disoriented, she massaged her temples and sat up in bed. She recalled bumping into Jefferson
at the night bazaar. Jefferson told her he had found Jessica, so she left with him. However, she drifted
off to sleep in the car.
Where am I?
Rayna nced around and soon spotted a sandy beach outside the window.
The sun was setting, so it was a gorgeous view.
Rayna gaped in disbelief. She only regained her senses at the sight of the vast sea beyond the sand.
Without hesitation, she headed for the door.
Pushing the door open, she stepped out and trembled at the cooling sensation beneath her feet.
When she looked down, her jaw dropped open in shock.
The corridor provided a glimpse into an underwater world where countless varieties of fish glided
around in blissful harmony.
Even octopuses could be seen meandering among the vibrant schools of fish. She wondered what
remarkable material created the corridor that housed such a mesmerizing underwater world.
Shocked senseless, Rayna took two steps back.
Her eyes widened in awe as she stared at the ceiling, which also depicted an underwater world vividly.
She covered her mouth, unable to contain her astonishment.
“Belle, you’re up!” Jefferson emerged from the other end of the corridor.
“W-What is going on?” Rayna pointed at the fish swimming beneath him. “Are we at an aquarium?”
“No.” Jefferson shed a smile.
He came over to her and pulled her out of the room to walk along the corridor. “Back when you wanted
to visit the aquarium, I didn’t bring you there. I’ve now relocated it so you can enjoy the view every day.”
“I can’t believe you remembered that. It happened so long ago,” Raynamented in amusement.
Carefully, she followed him along the corridor and down the stairs. “Where are we? Where is Jessie?”
Jefferson escorted her to the dining room and presented her with a bowl of soup. “We’re now at a ce
you’ve always dreamed of visiting,” he dered.
