Chapter 316 What A Mess

It was already seven in the morning by the time Rayna woke up.

The snowfall had stopped.

Thankfully, the staff had cleared the piles of snow blocking the roads, and their driver was ready to go. It took them only thirty minutes to reach the hotel, as their route was free of traffic.

Rayna caught sight of Jasmine and Theodore the moment she stepped into the hotel lobby.

Jasmine made her way to Rayna and held her hand. “Didn’t you sleep well? Your dark circles are so obvious.”

“It’s nothing to worry about.”

They took the elevator to the topmost floor once everyone had convened.

Theodore arranged for pickup by a private plane to save them the hassle of waiting at the airport after obtaining permission from the air traffic controllers.

The private plane swiftly departed from the hotel.

Rayna lay cocooned in Curtis’ embrace. She rested her head on his broad shoulder and gazed at the receding structure of the hotel as she muttered, “Will Wyatt be fine?”

“It’s nothing he can’t get over,” Curtis comforted. “Don’t worry. Try to get some sleep.”

“Okay…”

Rayna couldn’t help sighing at the relationship between Jessica and Wyatt and the vendetta between their families.

What a pair of star-crossed lovers!

The private plane touched down at Norwal City Airport at eleven in the morning.

Curtis received a text message from Wyatt informing him that Gerald’s body was ready for burial the following morning. They would only have to attend the funeral then and should rest for the day after their long trip.
