Dear Sweetheart

Chapter 216 A New Pet

Having picked up on the slight hesitation in her tone, Curtis narrowed his eyes and took over the phone in her hand.

“Mr. Chambers, this is Curtis.”

He then put the phone on speaker so Rayna could listen in on the conversation as she continued eating.

Due to his deliberate use of layman’s terms, she finally understood what the men were talking about at the end of their conversation.

After hanging up the call, Curtis returned the phone to her, saying, “You’ve never handled something like this before, so it’s normal not to understand what’s going on right away. I’ll have Gabriel send the relevant documents to you, and you should get a better idea once you’ve gone through them.”

“Isn’t this considered an abuse of power, Mr. Faymon?” Gabriel interjected. “If Ms. Garland wants any documents, she should be getting them from Hatchair Group.”

“There’s nothing interesting about Hatchair Group’s documents.” Curtis narrowed his eyes at his assistant. His tone was chilly as he remarked, “I advise you to think more and speak less.”

Learning of the man’s intents, Rayna thanked him with utmost sincerity. “Thank you, Mr. Faymon.”

“You’re welcome.”

After having lunch at Gabriel’s house and staying there for a little longer, Rayna took her leave. She still had things to take care of, and she had to go through all of the documents Gabriel gave her.

A moment after she left, Curtis was about to go as well.

Unfortunately, he was stopped by his assistant. Gabriel wore a smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes as he queried, “Mr. Faymon, you’ve already wasted all afternoon. I don’t suppose a couple more minutes will matter.”

“What is it?”

Gabriel pursed his lips and whistled. Soon, an ugly-looking pup came into view, causing Curtis’ expression to darken. He quickly pulled his assistant to the front, blocking himself from the puppy.

“Mr. Faymon, it’s a puppy, and it doesn’t have much fur. Do you mind taking care of it?”

Casting a glare at the man, Curtis enunciated, “Come again?”

“It’s not just an ordinary puppy, Mr. Faymon. It’s an intelligent breed, so it can help guard your house.”
