Dear Sweetheart

Chapter 64 Schrodinger

Rayna was speechless.

After throwing her a glance, Curtis continued, “I believe you’re not the disloyal type of person. That said, I can’t stop you if you insist on leaving. Take this as a token of my apology.” Curtis placed a thick wad of cash on the bedside table. “It’s not a lot, but there’s eight thousand and eight there, which is enough for you to purchase a flight ticket.”

Rayna was stunned by the sight of the money. It wasn’t until more than ten seconds had passed that she regained her senses. Cheeks burning, she trembled to the extent of almost dropping the glass in her hand.

This is too much! After that outrageous night, I left eight hundred and eighty-eight for him. And now, he is leaving me tenfold the amount just to remind me of that fateful night. What a jerk!

“Ms. Garland, your glass is empty.” Curtis was amused to see Rayna bring the empty glass to her lips. He took it from her hand and poured her some water.

Rayna bit her lip in exasperation.

I shouldn’t have thrown myself into Uncle Curtis’ arms. Now I’m trapped.

After handing the glass back to Rayna, Curtis—pretending to be concerned—asked, “Ms. Garland, you look terrible. Are you not feeling well? Do you need me to get the doctor?”

Rayna took a deep breath to suppress the frustration in her heart. She began typing on her phone before showing it to him: I’m fine. Thank you for your concern. I’ll help you finish the negotiations before going back home.

“What a shame. I was planning to get Mr. Tylinski to accompany you back.” Curtis’ lips curled into a smile. “But since you insist, I appreciate the passion you have for your work.”

Rayna thought, And there I was, thinking about how gentle Uncle Curtis was when he spoiled Kristie to the extent of being envious of her. It’s clear to me now that he’s actually a wolf in sheep’s clothing!

Due to how busy he was, Curtis gave Gabriel a call after Rayna had awoken. He then returned to his work, concentrating on the computer in front of him.

Rayna didn’t disturb him.
