His Precious Love

Chapter 271 Sell Me Out

They understood they were in the wrong as Carl was the one who pushed Emma.

Seeing that Rayna was keeping quiet, Emma smiled faintly with a smug look in her eyes. “You didn’t know any better, Ms. Garland, so I won’t hold you accountable. I hope you can respect your elders in the future and learn your manners.”

“There’s no need for you to lecture my people about manners, Mrs. Xavier.” Curtis spoke in a deep, powerful voice as he laid his broad hand on Rayna’s shoulder, which instantly calmed her down.

Glancing at him, Emma uttered, “Ah, it’s you, Curtis.”

Curtis nodded and allowed Rayna to lean against his sturdy body, providing her with a great sense of security. “I know what kind of person she is, Mrs. Xavier. I also know there are some things you are clearly aware of as well.”

“Aware of what? I don’t want to speak too much, but since you’re Theodore’s close friend, I must remind you that you shouldn’t let your guard down around some people.”

Narrowing his eyes, Curtis spat coldly, “You shouldn’t shed your pretenses, Mrs. Xavier. I’m willing to speak to you peacefully because I respect Theodore.”

Furious, she yelled, “You insolent brat! Do you know she—”

“The contract, right?” Rayna cut her off and replied coldly, “Save your effort. I’ll tell him what I should tell him myself!”

With that, she grabbed Curtis’ and Carl’s hands before leaving with them.

“Look at him, Theodore!” Emma was absolutely furious that she was disrespected by a couple of youngsters. “I only wanted to offer him a few words of advice, yet he had the gall to speak to me like that!”

Coldly, Theodore retorted, “My good relationship with Curtis is something that’s between us, Mom. It’s not like he’s your son. You should be glad he didn’t get angry at you for bullying his people.”

“Whose side are you on, Theodore?”

Instead of answering the question, he asked, “Did you threaten Rayna with the contract?”
