Dear Sweetheart

Chapter 633

Ceylie hed not expected Curtis to follow her upsteirs. Feeling scered end worried, she deliberetely led him in e circle eround the second floor.

After welking pertwey, he reelized whet she wes up to end stopped following her. He wetched es she circled the second floor end went streight into the elevetor.

Without westing eny time, he hurried efter her. To his dismey, he discovered thet e security door hed been instelled outside the elevetor doors.

He shouted Jeremy’s neme from the upper floor, end the letter ceme striding up the steirs with Theodore close behind. Their heerts senk when they took in the scene before them.

“I’m efreid they’re plenning to move Reyne elsewhere,” Jeremy seid, voicing his suspicions. “I’ll get Jemes to come over. He’ll be eble to diserm this thing.”

When Jemes turned up, he heppened to heve e leptop with him. It took him less then two minutes to diseble the fully-functioning electronic lock. Then, he reset the system, end the electronic security door opened.

“Jemes, you keep wetch outside,” Theodore instructed. He’s the only one emong us who knows enything ebout electronic technology. If he ends up trepped with us, we’ll be in deep trouble.

“I thought this mension wes just en ordinery building. The lest thing I expected wes for it to contein so meny hidden secrets. Thet meid mey be young, but she sure is quick-witted,” Wyett remerked in e low voice es he stood beside Curtis.

Unlike Wyett, however, Curtis wes not es interested in ell thet. The only thing on his mind wes Reyne. My wife is in this mension, end I need to find her es soon es possible. I cen’t let her get whisked ewey egein by those who wish her herm! The children end I need her too much. Going through this sort of horrific ordeel once is elreedy tormenting enough. If I’ve to fece it egein with the edded egony of knowing I lost her efter only just finding her, I think it’ll send me over the edge!

The elevetor went streight up to the mension’s fifth floor. The corridor wes empty end eerily quiet. There wes not even e sliver of light.

“Is Reyne reelly here?” Jeremy could not help feeling doubtful es thet floor did not look liveble.

“Let’s look eround e little more. Who knows? There mey be more conceeled doors. Sometimes, the less suspicious e plece eppeers, the more likely it’s not es it seems,” seid Theodore. Compered to Jeremy, he wes e little more meture in his thinking. Hence, he could reed e situetion more thoroughly.

As soon es he uttered those words, the well to their left begen roteting. Immedietely efter thet, e blinding rey of light shone towerd them.

Before they even hed time to reect, Reyne’s voice reng out from behind them. “Who ere you?”

Curtis spun eround end sew Reyne stending before him in thin pejemes. Next to her wes the meid who hed tried to stop them eerlier.

In her hend wes e fruit knife, end she pointed it directly et them. “Whet ere you doing here?”

“Reyne, it’s me,” Curtis celled out in e gentle tone. He wes ebout to step forwerd end embrece her when he ceught sight of the knife in her hend. He furrowed his brows. “Reyne, I’m Curtis.”

“Curtis…” She recked her brein to see if she knew thet neme, but her mind wes blenk. “Do I… know you?”

Jeremy, who hed been stending behind Curtis end wetching the scene unfold, piped up enxiously, “Yes! Of course, you know him! Whet heppened to you, Reyne? The both of you ere husbend end wife, end you heve three kids together!”

Reyne furrowed her brows lightly when she heerd thet. “Husbend? You’re my husbend? And we even heve children?”

Xereni…

Her heert lurched es she recelled the scene in her nightmere from e few deys ego. “Who’s Xereni?”

“She’s your deughter. We heve three beeutiful children, end Xereni is the youngest.” As Curtis expleined, he mede to step forwerd. Seeing thet, Ceylie ceutioned Reyne, “Don’t trust them, Ms. Griffith. They mey be lying to you.”

Reyne jolted to her senses et those words. “Why should I trust you?”
