Dear Sweetheart

Chapter 110 Couple Outfits

“No, I got it in a lucky draw.”

After relating the matter to him, Rayna paused briefly before continuing, “Initially, Jessie wanted to come along with me, but her aunt called her halfway, so I had to send her back.”

James heaved a sigh of relief.

Luckily, she didn’t come. I only spoke to her on Rayna’s account, and I’m not interested at all. On top of that…

While he was lost in thought, his phone suddenly rang. The sight of the familiar number that had called countless times over the last few days caused him to turn off his phone with a frown.

“Why aren’t you answering?” Rayna caught a glimpse of his phone by coincidence. When she saw the caller ID flashing “Princess,” she was immediately upset. “Didn’t you claim that you’re not in a relationship? Why are you hiding it from me?”

“It’s not. It’s just a friend.”

“Since when did you have a friend called ‘Princess?’“ Rayna was clearly skeptical.

Wearing a grim expression, James explained, “She took my phone and insisted on typing in her own caller ID. I simply forgot to change it.”

With that, he took out his phone and deleted Kristie’s number.

Having heard his response, Rayna didn’t question him further. Instead, she advised, “If there’s someone you like, you had better let me know and clear the air with Jessie. Otherwise, juggling multiple girls at once will make you a jerk, while I, too, will be just as guilty. I find Jessie to be a nice girl. That’s why I introduced her to you.”

James scratched his nose. “Rayna, you don’t have to worry about me. I have no intention of getting into a relationship.”

“I’m not pressuring you into one. It’s nothing more than a chat.”

James was stumped.

What difference does it make?

After that, Rayna drove to the market to purchase some fruits and crabs before heading to Linda’s house.
