Chapter 169 Would It Hurt To Beg
Rayna was so shocked that she nearly dropped her phone on the floor.
What should I do?
Looking at her buzzing phone, Rayna gritted her teeth and answered the call after several seconds. She steadied her voice and said, “Mr. Faymon.”
“Wyatt said you were busy with work and asked me not to disturb you.” Curtis’ deep and magnetic voice was as attractive as ever even over the phone.
Is he explaining himself?
Rayna felt nervous all of a sudden and replied, “Y-Yeah, I’ve been quite busy.”
“It’s Thanksgiving today.”
“Happy Thanksgiving!” said Rayna subconsciously.
A pause ensued, followed by a low chuckle. Rayna felt like slapping herself upon hearing it.
Rayna, you idiot!
Curtis then said, “My dad called just now. He reminded me to go home for Thanksgiving and bring you, the pregnant lady, along.”
“Mr. Faymon, I’m really not pregnant.” Rayna felt awkward. She blamed herself for not storing the wine properly. “My mom just called too. I may need to go home.”
“Understood,” said Curtis. “A family should spend time together on Thanksgiving. I’ll go back on my own, then.”
“Mr. Faymon…”
What he said made Rayna feel as if she had done something wrong. She faltered slightly. When she was about to speak up, Curtis asked her to carry on with her work and hung up.
That’s it? He hung up just like that?
A look of disbelief appeared on her face as she glared at her phone.
What on earth? Uncle Curtis is acting so high and mighty! Would it hurt to beg me and admit that he needs me?
