Dear Sweetheart

Chapter 238 Pardon The Intrusion

Wyatt showered Jessica with several more kisses before leaving reluctantly.

The smile on her face gradually dissipated as she gazed after Wyatt, who was driving away from the residential area into the distance.

Jessica resolutely removed the diamond ring on her finger and discarded it inside her handbag before entering the condominium.

Rayna had not seen Curtis since that day due to several reasons. First, he’d not replied to her apologetic text message on WhatsApp.

Secondly, she’d been so inundated with work that the day of Curtis and Jasmine’s wedding had arrived before she’d known it.

News of the wedding between the Faymon and Sanders families was all over the media portals early in the morning. It was even the talk of the town in her office.

Rayna feigned ignorance and continued with her work.

She’d received a call from Jessica, who questioned why she’d balked from attending the wedding ceremony. In the end, Rayna hung up as she couldn’t come up with a satisfactory reply.

Surprisingly, Jessica immediately sought her out, as she would not take her evasion for an answer.

“Why aren’t you going? It’s not as if you owe Curtis anything!” Jessica determinedly pulled Rayna along to pick an evening gown from a luxurious boutique before heading to a salon to get her hair done.

Jessica began lecturing Rayna on the way to the wedding, “You’ll blind Curtis with your beauty by attending the ball! Imagine what Jasmine would think if you were absent!”

“What’s the point of all this? Besides, I wasn’t even invited as a guest,” Rayna uttered in exasperation.

“Come on. There’s no reason for him to deny us entry. It’s not as if we’re going to crash his wedding.” Jessica rolled her eyes. “Wyatt will have a way to admit us if worst comes to worst. He’s probably there already.”

Rayna pursed her lips.

Even though both parties claimed that it was a marriage of pretense, the announcement was so sensational that almost everyone in the country knew of it.

“Are you upset, Nana?” Jessica scooted close to Rayna and hooked her arm through Rayna’s. “Do you still have feelings for Mr. Faymon?”

“No way.”
