Dear Sweetheart

Chapter 253 Curtis Is Jealous

“I’ll bring the ragdoll kitten to visit its mother whenever I have time then. Since you’re going to Norham, you should give me your Instagram account. We can follow each other,” Rayna said as she pulled out her phone.

Curtis shot Gabriel a very meaningful look.

Gabriel understood immediately.

If he really were to let Rayna follow him on Instagram, he would essentially be banished to Norham for at least several years.

Left with no choice, he could only say, “I don’t have an account, Ms. Garland. Besides, there is a manpower shortage over at Norham, so I’ll be very busy when I get there and won’t get much free time. If you run into any issues, you may ask Mr. Faymon. He’s way more talented than I am.”

Rayna glanced at Curtis in disdain and replied, “I still think you’re better.”

“You flatter me, Ms. Garland. Mr. Faymon taught me everything I know.” Gabriel was sweating buckets. If he continued to stay, Curtis would hold another grudge against him. “I have to go sort out some things now.”

With that, he turned around and fled.

Rayna muttered to herself, “Look at how fast he ran away. Am I that unlikeable?”

The veins on Curtis’ forehead were bulging. “Ms. Garland, he has long gone.”

It’s so infuriating! This woman looks fondly at other men but saves all the disdain for me!

“I know. You don’t have to tell me.” When Rayna looked at him, her mind inadvertently went to the kiss they had shared. Feeling awkward, she instinctively went to stroke the ring but was surprised to find that it was no longer on her finger.

“Wait. Where’s my ring?”

Curtis secretly put the ring into the pen holder. “Did it slip off your finger somewhere?”

“How is that possible? The ring was made to my exact measurements.” Rayna looked at him suspiciously. “You… I think you touched my hand when you kissed me earlier. Did you—”

“I had one hand holding your head and one gripping the table. Both of them were busy. It must have been your imagination,” he replied with a straight face.

“But you did touch—”
