Dear Sweetheart

Chapter 182 What A Move

James nodded. “I didn’t expect that the interpreter from Faymon Group I was ordered to protect is you, Rayna.”

Rayna let out a dry laugh.

So it’s really James! My eyes didn’t play tricks on me!

After learning about those things, Rayna was so astounded that she almost had a heart attack. “All right. Let’s put aside the fact that you lied to me. We’ll talk about you and Ms. Winton.”

Kristie whined piteously, “But Rayna…”

Ignoring her, Rayna looked at James coldly. “Do you want her or me?”

“Rayna, please don’t make things difficult for me. She’s the girl I like, while you’re my sister. Both of you are important to me.” James was put in a tight spot.

“So you want her, huh?”

“Rayna…”

“Fine. I got it. You don’t have to say anything else!” Rayna grabbed her bag and got up. “You are old enough to do what you want. Well, I guess you’ll only learn your lesson after you suffer in life.”

She was about to leave in a huff, but Linda walked over at that moment.

“Mom?” Seeing that it was really Linda, Rayna asked in shock, “Why are you here?”

“My son-in-law sent someone to pick me up and bring me here so we could all have a meal together,” Linda replied. When she noticed that both Curtis and James were present, she said in slight surprise, “Hey, James, you’re here, too?”

Rayna immediately turned around to stare daggers at Curtis, who was calm and composed as ever.

No wonder he has been silent all this while! He’s got this all planned out!

“Ms. Linda,” Curtis greeted politely and didn’t mind being called “son-in-law” by Linda. At the same time, he also gave Kristie a look.

Taking the hint, Kristie got up to help Linda and said dutifully, “Ms. Linda, you must be tired after the journey. Have a seat. I’ll pour you a cup of coffee.”

After pouring a cup of coffee, she politely handed it to Linda.
