His Precious Love

Chapter 190 Disallowed To Have Designs On My Woman

“Let go of me, Jefferson. I’m about to suffocate!” Rayna tried shoving Jefferson away.

Jefferson only released his hold on her after hugging her tightly for a long while. Rayna immediately backed away and eyed him warily.

Her guardedness had disappointment flooding Jefferson. But this also proves that the hurt I inflicted upon her is etched into her, and she can never forget me. Following that thought, a gratified grin appeared on his face.

Then, he urged, “Listen to me and sever all ties with Curtis as soon as possible, for he isn’t a good man. Just tell me whatever you want. Even if you want to establish your own company, I can help you.”

“The two of you are more or less the same, cut from the same cloth,” Rayna scoffed coldly.

We’ve broken up years ago, but he appeared out of the blue and put up this whole charade to garner sympathy!

“You don’t understand.” Jefferson wanted to say something further, but he gave up in the end, merely asking, “You still plan on helping him?”

“I owe him that much.”

Jefferson pinned his gaze on Rayna. A long moment later, he chuckled. “How brilliant of Curtis! It turns out that he had long since known the importance of a woman’s pity and sympathy.”

Rayna’s brows furrowed, for she didn’t quite understand his meaning. “What does that mean?”

“Nothing.”

It’s okay if she wants to help him. Anyway, Faymon Group won’t be able to hold out for long. Sooner or later, the truth will come to light. No other man is allowed to have designs on my woman!

When the two of them left the manor and returned to the hotel, Jefferson locked himself in the bedroom, seemingly having some business to settle. Rayna didn’t know where to go, so she did the same and went back to her bedroom.

The instant she tapped open WhatsApp, countless unread messages popped out.

Most of them were from Kristie.

Ever since she started dating James, she shamelessly added Rayna and texted her a greeting every single day. That aside, she would send food over to Faymon Group for Rayna from time to time, determined to get in the latter’s good books.

Slowly, Rayna’s heart softened and stopped treating her harshly.

In truth, her hands were also tied, for she couldn’t break the couple up when even Linda had given them her blessings.

Rayna replied to Kristie’s message for the very first time. In other words, she was
