Chapter 642


    “Why are you back so early today?” Rayna asked Curtis, who was beside her.


    Right this moment, she could hear his slightly shaky breath. Curtis tightened his grip around her waist


    slightly, which slightly perplexed Rayna. She inquired, “What''s wrong?”


    Curtis stopped in his tracks when he heard her. cing his hands on her shoulders, he turned her


    around to face him. “Rayna.”


    “Yeah?” Rayna responded. She raised her hand in an attempt to feel his face. Her hand met Curtis''


    arm, and she slowly raised her hand until she felt his nose and eyebrows with her fingers. Rayna then


    chuckled. “I don''t me you. You don''t have to me yourself.”


    Although she did not remember what had happened before, she had astutely noticed the depressing


    aura emanating from Curtis for the past two days. “It was an ident that neither of us wanted.”


    Hearing that, Curtis held her hands, which were rubbing his face. His eyes reddened slightly, and he


    took her into his arms. “Rayna, I''d rather you throw a tantrum at me.”


    Rayna ced her hands on his back and stroked him. She stated, “It was an ident that neither you


    nor I could have expected. I don''t me you. You have your own responsibilities, and you can''t always


    apany me all the time.”


    While Curtis felt guilty for not answering Rayna''s emergency call immediately, he also felt remorseful


    for not being able to keep an eye on her all night.


    Curtis felt like he had returned to the time Jefferson was still alive when he spotted Chandler in the


    Faymon residence a moment ago.


    Despite the fact that Chandler was younger than Rayna, he could tell Chandler''s love for Rayna from


    his eyes.


    I know he has feelings for Rayna.


    “Was that person who came just now an artist from Happy Entertainment?” Rayna leaned into Curtis''


    embrace softly. However, her mind was recalling the incident that had happened just now.


    Although Curtis did not like the woman he loved mentioning another guy, he still answered honestly


    when she asked. “Yes. He''s the main artist of Happy Entertainment.”


    “His name is... Chandler?” Rayna confirmed his name with Curtis'' help.


    “Yes.” Curtis'' brows slightly furrowed, and he responded in a tone that contained slight displeasure.


    After spending most of his day at work, Curtis hurried back home to keep his wifepany. Half an


    hour had passed since he returned, yet Rayna was talking about another man to him.


    Rayna, on the other hand, was oblivious to Curtis'' emotions. She was preupied with her thoughts


    and continued asking, “Does he have any special characteristics?”


    “Rayna.” Curtis expressed his mild displeasure by tightening his grip on her wrist.


    “Huh?” Although Curtis did not exert much strength, Rayna still felt it. Instinctively, she raised her eyes


    to look at her side before remembering she had lost her sight after seeing total darkness.


    Rayna thought about it and felt that Curtis must have been jealous. She tilted her head and leaned into


    his arms. “I don''t have other intentions when asking about Chandler... I just feel that there''s something


    strange about him.”


    “Strange?” Curtis caught the main point of Rayna''s words, and his brow rose slightly. “Why do you say


    so?”


    “It''s just a feeling, or maybe my intuition is wrong.” As Rayna raised her feet to walk forward, Curtis


    ced his arm around her. They walked side by side.


    Curtis did not feel that his wife''s intuition was wrong. After all, iprehensible things that could not


    be exined, like the strange power of women''s intuition, existed. “Do exin.”

    “Oh?” Rayna was momentarily taken aback. She heard Curtis say, “You speak, and I''ll listen.”


    “When Chandler came toward me just now, his scent...” As Rayna said this, she paused as if she was


    deliberating how to put her words.


    Secondster, she continued, “Don''t celebrities usually wear makeup?”


    “Yes. Celebrities, no matter their gender, have to wear makeup. It''s just that men wear less obvious


    makeup than women. I have seen people who use a little foundation to cover up their ws.” I


    remember Chandler was wearing makeup the first time I met him at the banquet for Happy


    Entertainment that Rayna had attended two months ago.


    Curtis never wore makeup, not because he could not stand the sight of men wearing makeup. Rather,


    he felt the act of men doing so was strange.


    However, it was normal for Chandler, who was a celebrity, to wear makeup since he had to appear on


    camera.


    “A celebrity, regardless of their gender, will have the faint fragrance of cosmetics on them after wearing


    makeup for a long time,” Rayna uttered gently. She recalled Chandler''s stronger male pheromones


    when he went close to her at the residence earlier. “But just now... I didn''t smell the scent of cosmetics


    from him. His scent was somewhat simr to yours instead.”


    Hearing Rayna''s words, Curtis raised his brows by a fraction. His deep, dark gaze then fell on her. She


    actuallypared me with another man. She''s really...


    “Don''t be angry. I was just giving an example.” Rayna seemed to know that Curtis was staring at her


    and what was going through his mind. She continued, “Did you have a good look at Chandler when he


    came just now? Was he wearing makeup?”


    Makeup? Rayna must be asking whether Chandler was wearing foundation.


    Curtis cast his mind back to the past before saying faintly, “I didn''t take a close look at him. He might


    have but I''m not sure.”


    There was no doubt Chandler was just a pretty boy to Curtis.


    My wife clearly doesn''t like guys like Chandler, but he harbors impure intentions toward her. He even


    dares to break into the Faymon residence. Curtis grumbled in his mind. Then, he swept Rayna off her


    feet while she was still distracted by her thoughts.


    Frightened, Rayna instinctively wrapped her hands around Curtis'' neck. “What are you doing, Curtis?”


    “I''ll carry you for a little bit.” Curtis held her while he walked toward the small wooden bridge in the


    backyard. There was rustling as his shoes stepped on the grass.


    Curtis carried her across the wooden bridge. He then carefully ced her on the swing seat under the


    wisteria.


    “Am I on a swing?” Rayna questioned as she extended her hands to grab the ropes of the swing on


    both sides.


    “Yes, you''re on a swing.” As Curtis spoke, he walked behind her and gently pushed her. “You


    mentioned previously that you wanted to make room in the backyard for a swing so that you could y


    it with the kids in the future.”


    Curtis got someone to install one big and three small swings. The surrounding of the swings enclosed


    with wisteria was dreamy.


    “The wisteria should have bloomed by the time your eyes recover,” Curtis murmured.


    Rayna was stunned when she heard his words.


    Can my eyes even recover? I thought I would no longer be able to see since I woke up.


    When she heard Curtis'' words, a brief hint of joy rose in her heart. “Is it really possible... for my eyes to


    recover?”


    “It is.” Curtis stood in front of her. He reached out to wrap his arms around her. “You''ll be fine.”


    He had already hired a team of experts from Granatano. They would be reaching Norwal City in two


    days. Curtis would arrange for Rayna''s treatment by then.


    “Do I need to undergo surgery?” Rayna felt a tiny bit concerned despite her joy. She was afraid that she


    would need to undergo surgery.


    After all, there was always a risk associated with surgery.


    I''m scared that... if my eyes don''t recover, I might suffer from side effects from the surgery. I''d rather


    keep things as they are now if that''s the case.
