Dear Sweetheart

Chapter 151 Maybe It Is Just A Coincidence

Theodore said indifferently, “I know Curtis well. He won’t stand up for just anyone. Thus, he must be somewhat attracted to you, Ms. Garland. If you truly intend to keep your feelings to yourself, sign this.”

As he spoke, he uncapped a pen and placed it next to the document, adding, “I need absolute assurance from you.”

Rayna knew she could come up with a million excuses, and still, he would accept none of them.

Uncle Curtis… also has feelings for me?

That thought sent her heart racing. I must be crazy for entertaining such a possibility!

Theodore tapped on the document. His voice was cold as he uttered, “Ms. Garland.”

“Huh?” Rayna raised her head to meet his sharp gaze that seemed to be able to see right through her. It felt impossible to hide all her thoughts from him. Subconsciously, she began to twiddle with her fingers on her knees.

Her subtle movements did not escape Theodore’s notice. “Ms. Garland, you can still be yourself after signing this document. I will not interfere with any part of your life. After Curtis gets married, this contract will be annulled, and I will not retract any of the houses, cars, or shares stated on it,” he explained.

All of the possessions stated in the contract were valued at a total of nearly one hundred million.

Rayna did not doubt the strength of the friendship between Theodore and Curtis. However, she was certain that the man before her was mainly doing such a thing in Jasmine’s interest.

Curiosity bubbled up inside her, and she wondered what had happened to them and why they had broken up.

Rayna stared in contemplation at the contract in front of her for a full minute. Eventually, she picked up the pen and signed on the dotted line. Her countenance remained calm, betraying none of her true emotions.

Once she was done, she closed the document and pushed it back toward Theodore. A small smile played about her lips.

“This is such a good deal. Of course, I’ll take it.”

Theodore pressed his lips tightly together. His entire demeanor changed, becoming colder and harder. He kept the signed contract away and stood up, towering over Rayna. “Ms. Garland, I hope you’ll remember what you have promised.”
