Dear Sweetheart

Chapter 197 Curtis Is Lying To You

Rayna could not care less about what Sienna was telling the media but fixated her gaze on Curtis. The man was pursing his lips, and his expression remained cold.

This is so weird. He looks so calm and unconcerned about giving up Faymon Group. Why?

Meanwhile, someone hidden in a dark corner aimed a silenced gun at Rayna’s heart. A few seconds later, the person pulled the trigger. The silver bullet pierced through the rain, flying toward her heart.

“Rayna!”

A deafening shout rang out behind her, and the voice was familiar.

Before she could turn around, a figure had already pounced on her. Following the sound of something piercing into the flesh, she was thrown hard onto the ground with the person collapsing on her.

She could barely open her eyes in the rain. Only after she wiped her face did she realize the person was Julian. Completely soaked, he frowned as he breathed hard, gasping for air.

“Julian, how did you…” When she tried to push him away, she found her hands sticky and gazed down—the man’s shirt was stained red with blood.

It took him a while before he lifted his head to look at her, panting. “Are… you okay?”

“I’m fine. Don’t move, don’t move!” Rayna, frightened to the core, tried to make a call and get an ambulance. However, there was water on her phone screen, and she failed to unlock the phone despite several attempts.

Her eyes turned red-rimmed as she cussed aloud, “What a lousy phone!”

She immediately shouted for help. However, besides the vehicles on the road, no one was around on such a rainy day.

“It’s okay.” Julian could feel life ebbing away from his body. “I don’t have time to wait for the ambulance, anyway.”

“Shut up!” Rayna chided as she impatiently tried to unlock her phone. After several attempts, she finally succeeded and made a call.

“Somebody’s hurt. We’re right at the intersection next to Faymon Group. Please come quickly!” Panicking, her voice turned hoarse.
