Chapter 361

Rayna had just picked up Jessica’s call and was about to ask her what was the matter when the call ended abruptly after she heard the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

She quickly dialed back, but all she got from the other end was the emotionless female voice telling her that the device she was calling had been switched off.

Is Jessie in trouble?

Right then, Jefferson came down from upstairs and saw that Rayna was dressed lightly. He grabbed a coat and draped it over her shoulders, startling her with his gestures.

Jefferson asked softly, “What’s the matter?”

“Jessie’s phone has been switched off. A few hours ago, she called me several times. I didn’t notice, as I accidentally put my phone on silent mode.” Rayna frowned, feeling worried.

“She’s Wyatt’s fiancée. My brother wants to expand the business to Aploth. He won’t purposely go looking for trouble with the prominent families in Norwal City,” consoled Jefferson.

“I hope so…” Rayna was still concerned. She hesitated for a moment before calling Jessica again. “She must have something to tell me; otherwise, she wouldn’t have called me so many times.”

Today is Wyatt’s birthday. Jessica must be with him.

Rayna waited for quite some time before Wyatt answered her call. His voice was a little hoarse as he said, “Hello?”

“Wyatt, it’s Rayna.”

Wyatt went silent for a while before asking, “Have you really broken up with Curtis? Where are you now? Why are you calling me?”

“Yeah, we’ve broken up. I’m overseas to deal with some matters now. I heard it’s your birthday today. Happy birthday, Wyatt,” replied Rayna with pursed lips, trying to make light of the situation.

“Thanks, Rayna.”

Rayna was unsure if she had heard wrongly, but she thought Wyatt sounded a little off.

However, he spoke very briefly, so she could not ask him about it.
