Dear Sweetheart Chapter 578

Chapter 578

“It’s not spicy enough.” Rayna smacked her lips. “Why are you asking me whether the beef tastes good when I’m talking about the incident with Mr. Nicholson?” She was speechless at his attempt to change the topic.

Curtis took a slice of beef and tried it himself. “That’s enough. Your stomach can’t handle anything too spicy.”

“Curtis, did you do it?” Rayna smacked him in the arm.

“How is it possible for me to counter Mr. Nicholson when Theodore is still unconscious?” Curtis smiled unaffectedly. “What goes around comes around. He’ll have to account for his sins eventually.”

His words echoed Rayna’s thoughts.

It would be implausible for Curtis to hurt Noel without Theodore’s connections, as the latter was still unconscious in Xyperia.

She became suspicious about what Curtis and Jefferson were up to when they were so busy that they never replied to her WhatsApp messages previously.

Rayna was jerked free from her musings when Curtis swatted her bottom.

“Why don’t you get the plates and cutlery ready for our meal?”

“You—” Rayna was so astonished that she felt like her bum was on fire. “Don’t be surprised when I sue you for sexual harassment!”

“Are you planning to sue the father of your children?” Curtis smirked.

Rayna cursed him under her breath and opened the cupboard to retrieve the plates and cutlery from the cabinet grudgingly.

Besides the roast beef, Curtis had also prepared a salad and lentil soup. It was a veritable feast.

The beef was roasted to perfection, and Rayna devoured all of it.

Curtis was very pleased with her appetite, and his lips curled into a smile. “Has my culinary skills improved?”

It was evident that his cooking had improved by leaps and bounds from the taste of the beef.
