Dear Sweetheart

Chapter 461

It started to rain heavily when it was about five in the afternoon.

Even if the windows were installed with soundproofing rubber, Rayna could still hear the water droplets pattering violently against the glass window.

She pulled open the curtains and looked outside the window. It was pitch dark outside, and she could only see the lights coming out of the dining room.

It’s raining so heavily. When will it stop?

She had too much to eat that day, so much so that she didn’t have much appetite at night as well. She even told the kitchen not to prepare anything for her when they called to ask. Then, she sent a text to Carl and asked what was going on back home.

Carl replied that he was fine with the food that he was having, but he still preferred the food that Rayna and Jasmine made. Then, he texted Rayna again, saying that he was fine with any food as long as it was not prepared by Curtis.

Rayna was utterly amused.

She thought Curtis was a decent enough cook. Hence, she was curious why Carl seemed traumatized by his cooking.

Carl sent another text: Ms. Rayna, my mommy has gone overseas for a long time. She hasn’t called me since.

Rayna: Not even a text?

Carl: Yes, my calls always go into the mailbox. Could anything has happened to her?

Just when Rayna was about to reply to him, a sudden loud bang outside startled her. Her vision went dark, and her phone slipped out of her hand.

The phone’s screen went black after it hit the floor.
