‘''You''ve been there with your sister?” Theodore was surprised to discover that bit of information. “Was it
just you and Rayna who''ve been there before or the entire family?”
“It was just Rayna and me, and we kept it a secret from our family.” James slowly opened up and told
Theodore everything. “Back then, our family didn''t have enough money to send my mother for
treatment when she was sick. Later on, we heard some elders mention the expensive herbs on
Shvomliid Mountain. However, the regtion in Chanaea specifically states that Shvomliid Mountain
isn''t open to the public to protect its natural environment.”
“So, the two of you sneaked up the mountain?” Theodore was shocked to hear James'' side of the story.
Yet, he knew it was a terrific opportunity to chat further because Curtis had told him that an old
traditional medicine practitioner who could cure Rayna''s sickness lived on Shvomliid Mountain.
“Well, not really. Someone led us there.” James shook liis head and continued. “I was really young
back then, so I can barely recall anything. On the contrary, Rayna would remember everything. It''s just
that she''s lost her memory now.”
“You said that someone brought you there. Was it someone you knew?” Theodoretched on to that
important bit of information and pursued it further.
“I''m not sure if it was someone familiar, but I recalled him staring at Rayna in a very weird manner.
Anyhow, he led us up the mountain, and we managed to get some herbs. I have no recollection of
anything else that happened thereafter.” James tried his best to think back, but he could not remember
all the details, considering how young he was back then. “I know I pestered Rayna to bring me along in
hopes of having fun at the mountain.”
Hearing so, Theodore knew James did not have much impression about the details. Ironically, the one
who used to have a memory like an elephant now suffered from amnesia. He sighed and muttered,
“Tilings would be easier if Rayna hadn''t lost her memory.”
Meanwhile, at the Faymon residence. Rayna was resting on the couch.
Shey there for a long time until the throbbing pain in her head stopped. Then, she slowly propped
herself up and bent down to search the floor for her cane.
“Rayna!” The bedroom door was flung open, and Curtis strode toward her when he saw her kneeling
on the carpet. “Did you fall? Are you hurt?”
“No, I didn''t fall down.” Rayna reached out to him and held his hand. “I didn''t hurt myself, either. My
cane dropped earlier, and I just wanted to pick it up,” she exined softly.
Curtis''s gaze fell on the cane, which had rolled under the coffee table. Then, he looked at Rayna and
said. “Why didn''t you ask the housekeeper for help? They could have done it for you.”
“I didn''t want to trouble anyone. Though it dropped. I was thinking I could easily locate it since it''s in the
room.” Ayer of sweetnessced Rayna''s voice as she tried to appease Curtis. She could tell from the
man''s heavy breathing that he had dashed across the room to get to her. “I thought you wouldn''t be
home until muchter? Howe you''re back early?”
“Levi told me that you''re not feeling well.” As Curtis spoke, he signaled a housekeeper to pick the cane
up and put it aside. Subsequently, he assisted Rayna out of the bedroom. “You didn''t have lunch.”
“I had no appetite. Since I had ate breakfast. I thought I could have lunchter.” Rayna proceeded to
update Curtis on everything, from the food she ate in the morning to the walk she had. “Perhaps
Grandpa was worried about me, so he wanted you toe home.”This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.
Once Curtis knew that she was fine, he felt more at ease. “I met Dr. Galopin this morning. He told me
we could go for a more conservative method to treat your eyes,bining both traditional and modem
practices.”
“Really?” A smile crept up on Rayna''s face the moment she heard that surgery was no longer
necessary. “Please don''t lie to me.”
“It''s tine. I''m not lying.” Curtis helped her down the stairs and to the dining table. Alfred had already
finished his lunch and had just returned from a walk in the garden. He was delighted to see both Curtis
and Raynaing down to have a meal together. Alfred turned to Levi, and the two of them grinned at
each other.
Rayna was still beaming with joy after hearing the good news while the man held her hand and picked
up a spoon. “I''m not hungry,” she said.
“Please have a few bites.” Curtis always had his three meals on time. asionally, he might eat at a
different time due to liis busy work schedule. However, Rayna never shared the healthy habit of eating
on time even before she married Curtis, and that was something that bothered him a lot.
“You should have your meals on time daily.” He frowned when he saw Rayna stir the bowl of soup
reluctantly. “Drink the soup first and then have some vegetables. It''s okay not to eat the spaghetti.”
“All right.” Rayna nodded in response and scooped a spoonful of soup to taste.
“Let Ee over to the Faymon residence this afternoon. There''s something I need to tell her,”
Rayna requested while drinking the soup.
Curtis froze in liis act of moving liis fork and turned liis dark gaze toward Rayna. “You...”
E had visited the Faymon residence several days ago. It was not a big deal, but Curtis did not think
Rayna should be managing work affairs when she had amnesia. “You can talk about work once you
recover. It''s not a priority right now.”
Rayna fell silent at hisment, making it impossible for Curtis to know what she was thinking at the
moment.
After finishing her soup, Rayna broke the silence. “Why didn''t you notify me about thendslide which
befell the real estate project in Yartran?”
At that instant, Curtis dropped his spoon into the bowl with a resounding ng. “You...”
“I''ve regained my memories.” Rayna took a napkin from her left and wiped theers of her mouth.
Then, she turned to Curtis. “I remember you told me that Faymon Group won''t participate in any
Yartran projects.”
That was why Rayna wanted to meet Curtis at liispany when she learned about thendslide
involving Faymon Group''s project in Yartran.
It was supposed to be a good tiling that Rayna had recovered from amnesia. However, Curtis was
secretly hoping that she did not regain her memories, at least not then.
“Rayna. I''ll exin it to you another time.” At that point. Curtis had no intention of starting a fight with
her. To him, debating on the matter was utterly unnecessary.
Ternc Group was headquartered in Yartran. It was also thepany that Jefferson presented to
Rayna as a gift. Initially, Rayna was apprehensive about taking over Ternc Group because it was a
largepany with operations in multiple sectors, and she doubted her ability to head such a huge
corporation. Besides that, she was also concerned about what Curtis would think.
Faymon Group owned an extensive array of businesses in multiple industries. They had been
expanding into the Epea market where the Ternc family''s home ground was. In addition, some
projects managed by Ternc Group shed with those of Faymon Group.
Although Curtis and Rayna shared a strong bond now, there was no guarantee their rtionship would
not be affected adversely should there be any conflict of interest in their business.
“Curtis, you promised not to let Faymon Group get involved in any of the royal family''s projects in
Yartran.” Since there was a business opportunity in Yartran, the first consideration should go to the
enterprises in Yartran instead of any outstanding establishments from another country. However,
Faymon Group had sessfully won the tender of the real estate project owned by the royal family in
Yartran. All of these were done without her knowledge. Hence, it was not hard to imagine why the
matter would upset Rayna.
