Dear Sweetheart

Chapter 154 Do The Same To Kristie

Seeing that she could no longer avoid Curtis anymore, Rayna turned to look at him with a stiff smile.

“Mr. Faymon, do you want to eat an apple?”

“Yes.”

His frank reply took her by surprise, so she had no choice but to start peeling the apple with a fruit knife.

This is so awkward! I wouldn’t have agreed to come here if I had known how difficult spending time with Mr. Faymon would be.

The atmosphere in the kitchen was tense. It was quiet until Curtis broke the silence by asking, “Rayna, are you avoiding me because of what happened the other day?”

The period of time when Rayna was not in touch with him made him feel quite uneasy. He missed having her nag at him by his side.

However, he could not head to the office to see her because of his condition.

The second he brought it up, Rayna immediately thought of the kiss they had shared in the restroom. It made her feel even more embarrassed. “No, that’s not the case. Things have been very hectic in the office. Also, I’m curious to know what Chester is up to, considering that he hasn’t taken any action for a long time.”

After the apple was peeled, she cut half of it and tossed it to Curtis while changing the subject. “I came here to discuss this matter with you. What do you think he’s waiting for?”

Curtis took the apple and replied calmly, “He’s waiting for the best time to strike. You have around the same original issue shares as him. However, in reality, he doesn’t have many since my father has the majority.”

His words were rather profound, so Rayna had to ruminate on it for a while before she understood him.

“Everyone knows how ambitious he is. There’s no way Old Mr. Faymon would give Chester his shares,” she stated.

With that, she thought of something, and her expression became anxious. “If Chester is put in a tough spot, would he do something bad to Old Mr. Faymon?”

“He may think about it, but he wouldn’t dare to do it,” Curtis replied flatly. However, murderous intent brimmed in his eyes. “If anyone in the Faymon family has the audacity to lay a finger on my father, I’ll destroy the whole family!”
