Dear Sweetheart

Chapter 624

By the time Curtis returned to the Faymon residence, it was already after one in the morning. The nanny had calmed Yosef and Yelena down by then, and the two children were in their beds. Only Xareni was still lying in Jasmine’s arms, studying the inside of the house with her tearful eyes. When Curtis came into the house, Xareni fixed her eyes on him for a long while before making noises and reaching her hands out for him.

When Jasmine turned around, she was shocked to see Curtis. Nevertheless, she came back to her senses and figured out what had happened when she saw the man reaching out for Xareni.

“Yosef and Yelena are asleep, so Xareni’s the only one awake. She has a slight fever. We’ve already summoned the family doctor, and he asked us to try to cool her down without medicine first, so we gave her a cooling patch.” As Jasmine spoke, she reached out to touch Xareni’s forehead, only to find that it was still a little warm.

The moment Xareni was in Curtis’ arms, she reached out to grab his shirt. Shortly after, she closed her eyes.

“She’s asleep,” Jasmine noted. In less than half an hour, Xareni had fallen asleep in Curtis’ arms. Jasmine then called for the nanny to ask her to bring the girl back for now. She instructed, “Carry her to the room opposite the nursery. Don’t put her in the same room as Yosef and Yelena.”

The nanny nodded and gently brought the sleeping girl upstairs.

“How is Rayna?” Jasmine asked, glancing at the tired Curtis.

He reached out to rub the bridge of his nose. “She’s still unconscious.”

“What did the doctor say?” Jasmine filled a glass of water for Curtis before sitting down on the couch opposite him.

Curtis reached out for it and thanked her. “He said she’ll either wake today or tomorrow.”

“I see,” Jasmine replied. Right as she raised her head, she spotted Kristie descending the stairs.

“They’ve finally quieted down.” Kristie walked over to the coffee table to get herself a glass of water. After sparing a glance at Curtis, she continued, “Curtis, I’m sure everything will turn out fine for a good person like Rayna.”

“Okay,” Curtis mumbled. Instead of drinking any water, he gently swirled the glass. At that, Jasmine uttered, “Why don’t you get some rest first?”
