Chapter 350
Curtis sneered.
"Jefferson gave up his right to be the head of the Ternc family, making Arnaud the only
remaining heir.It''ll be a piece of cake for Arnaud to get to know the prominent figures in Aploth.He''s
nning to enter Aploth''s market.That''s why he dared toy a finger on me.Moreover—"
"He knows how much Jefferson cares about Ms.Gand and that you and Jefferson share a mother.He
wants to y with you two, so he did this," Jeremy said, finishing his sentence for him.
Curtis rubbed the dark blue silk scarf between his fingers as grimness clouded his eyes.
"He''ll have to get my permission to enter Aploth''s market."
"I know little about running a business, so I''ll refrain from making anyments."
After a moment of contemtion, Jefferson said, "Do you think Jefferson knows about this? Arnaud''s
such a ruthless character.Would he be silent about this?"
Curtis hummed in rumination.
"He probably doesn''t.If he did, he wouldn''t have gone to Frosa with Rayna.He would have gone back to
Yartran to rify things with his father"
"Does Arnaud have some kind of n by not telling him about it?"
"That''s enough.Stop talking about him? Curtis snapped, his mood taking a dip.That name was haunting
him like a ghost recently.If not for his upbringing and self-restraint, he would have gone straight to
Frosa by tracking down Rayna via the tracker in her ring and then shot Jefferson point nk.Sensing
the imminent eruption of the volcano named Curtis, Jeremy smartly stopped mentioning the name and
asked, "Curtis, why did you call me then?"
"I''ll send you the front desk number of the hotel she''s currently staying.Call her."
After a pause, Curtis added in a resentful but resigned tone, "Send her the location of theb."
Jeremy was silent for two seconds before saying, "I didn''t mishear you, did I? You''re...saving
Jefferson?"
"I just don''t want my soon-to-be wife to run off with another man" Curtis snarled.
"Making this call to you tonight is the most humiliating moment in my life."
"It looks like Ms.Gand has changed much of you, Curtis" Jeremy remarked.
"If this were in the past, you would have killed him without leaving any trace behind; you wouldn''t be
someone anyone could reason with."
At that, Curtis’ tone deepened.
"Jeremy, if you have too much time on your hand, why don''t you get some investors for yourb? I''ve
been investing more than a billion per year in yourb, but I''ve yet to see any good results.I''m getting
annoyed, and I don''t think I want to keep throwing money into the gutter.What do you think?"
"I''m not that free!"
Jeremy blurted out.
"For the sake of testing out RP3KK antineostic drug for the pharmaceutical factory under Faymon
Group, I haven''t been sleeping for two weeks.I nearly died!"
"Are you done?"
"Okay, I''ll call Ms.Gand right now and try to find out how things are between her and Jefferson at the
same time.Can''t let your wife run off with someone else, right?"
With that, Jeremy ended the call swiftly.
Curtis red at his phone, so furious that he could not voice a single word for a while.
After recollecting himself, he kept away his phone and ced the blue silk scarf on the nightstand.He
sighed and muttered, "Just this one time, Rayna."
I only relent this one time.
Once you''re done dealing with those matters, you have toe back.
Chanaea and Frosa had a time difference of seven hours, so it was currently seven in the morning at
Frosa.

As the weather was cold, the ss windows of the hotel were coated with ayer of mist, making the
outside view foggy from the inside.
It had been a long while since Rayna arrived in Frosa.
Once she adapted to the time difference, she became an early riser.
After washing up, she went to make breakfast while looking on her phone at the map that Jessica had
given to her.
She had searched through all thebs on the map, but her search had been fruitless.
Nevertheless, Rayna was nning to make a trip to thosebs again to find out whether or not there
were other unmarkedbs around them.
The woman refused to believe that Jeremy''sb could be invisible to the human eye.
Right after she poured the hot oatmeal into a bowl and brought the bowl to the dining table outside, she
heard the faint sound of a phone ringing.
It was from thendline in the living room.
At that discovery, she hurried over, picked up the call, and asked in Ferropenian, "Hello? Is something
the matter?"
"Good morning, Ms.Gand" the receptionist politely greeted.
"You have a call from Chanaea, and the caller identifies himself as York.He would like to have a talk
with you.Do you know him?"
York? Jeremy York? Rayna fell into a daze but quickly snapped out of it and answered, "He''s my
friend.Please forward his call to me"
"Of course."
Jeremy''s call was soon forwarded to Rayna.
Before she could say anything, he voiced, "Ms.Gand, myb is at Bekelon Street.Once you''re there,
just tell them your name."
Hearing that, Rayna checked the location on the map.It was a bustling street, and the lot number of the
lab Jeremy gave her turned out to be a private mansion.
Mostbs were located in the suburbs, but Jeremy''sb was in the metropolitan area and in a mansion
at that.
There was no way she could have found hisb if not for his call.
"Thank you.I really need Ixora"
Rayna said in a quiet voice.
After biting her lower lip, she added, "Did Mr.Faymon ask you to tell me about this?"
Jeremy chuckled and replied, "Ms.Gand, aren''t you being too much of a stranger by calling him
Mr.Faymon? At the very least, you were engaged to him.There''s no need to be enemies after
breaking up, is there?"
"It won''t be appropriate for me to call him Curtis."
"You''re the only one who thinks that; Curtis won''t think it''s inappropriate," Jeremy said and sighed.
"Ms.Gand, you don''t understand Curtis.He says nothing, but everything he does is for you.You know
the kind of person he is.He really loves you and cares for you.That''s why he''s letting you do all these
things.If he still has a ce in your heart, you should know what to do."
"I know.I know it all."
Rayna''s throat tightened.
In truth, she regretted saying those harsh words to Curtis that day, and her heart ached for him.
However, Jefferson''s physical state had taken a turn for the worse.
There was nothing else she could do.
Suppressing her feelings, she then said to Jeremy, "I owe Jefferson too much, and I can''t repay
him.Once he takes the medication and gets better, I''ll go back."
Her response made Jeremy sigh in relief.
"Good.We''ll be waiting for you toe back for a meal together."
"Mm-hmm."
After ending the call, Rayna speedily noted down the address of Jeremy''sb.
Once she had eaten some of her breakfast, she hurriedly put on her coat and made to leave the hotel
room.
Right then, Jefferson emerged from his bedroom.
At the sight of her hurried departure, he walked over to stop her and uttered in distress, "It''ll be subzero
today.Don''t go out"
"It''ll just be a while.I''ll be back soon."
Rayna was all smiles, nning to break the happy news to him aftering back from Jeremy''sb.
"I''ve made breakfast.After you''re done eating it, exercise a little in the hotel room.You can y billiards,
too, if you want."
Jefferson stopped her again and pulled off the scarf on the rack to wrap it around her bare neck.
With a soft look in his eyes, he said, "Come back earlier, then.I''ll make lunch for you."
Rayna smiled.
"In that case, I''ll have to rush back"
He wanted to see her off, but she waved her hand dismissively and said in slight disdain, "Go back.It''s
not as if I''m noting back.Wait for me to return with good news.Bye!"
In no time, she disappeared behind the corner of the corridor.
It was only then Jefferson reluctantly retracted his gaze and returned to the open dining area.
The sight of steaming oatmeal and buns brought a soft smile to his lips.
In the twenty-odd years of his life, only when he was with her did he know the definition of happiness.
The days of being in Frosa with her, her smile, and her care for him were something he would never
forget.
