His Precious Love

Chapter 150 A Wife

“In that case, your mommy is being too harsh on you.” Rayna frowned. “Having fun is the most important thing for kids your age. It’ll never be too late to learn those things when you’re older.”

Carl shook his head. “My mommy says I should start young because I can learn faster. I don’t find the sessions tiring. I just hope that I’ll be stronger than my daddy in the future. That way, I can see him more often.”

“Is your daddy a very busy man?”

“Yes. He doesn’t get many holidays.” Carl jerked his chin up slightly and said gleefully, “However, my mommy said he’d be coming back during the holidays. I get to celebrate the holidays with Mommy and Daddy this year!”

“That’s great.” Rayna smiled and stroked his head lovingly.

She knew being a soldier was tough because they had little time off.

Although Rayna had only met a handful of kids before, she found it relaxing to chat with Carl. In fact, she thought he was obedient, intelligent, and knowledgeable. Therefore, they had a pleasant chat over lunch.

Suddenly, Rayna’s phone started ringing, so she said to Carl, “I’m sorry, but I need to take this call.”

The moment she whipped out her phone, she saw that it was a call from an unknown number.

Bewildered, she answered the phone and asked, “Hello. Who is this?”

“Where are you now, Ms. Garland?”

“Is that you, Mr. Xavier?” The monotonous tone was the only hint she needed to figure out who was on the other end of the line. “I’m having lunch outside. How may I help you?”

“Where are you having lunch?”

Huh? Rayna froze momentarily before replying carefully, “Perhaps you can send me a location, and I’ll go—”
