Chapter 364

Curtis left the woman in his arms to Gabriel before turning around to face Raynal

Her heart trembled slightly as her gaze met his.

Rayna knew she had made a lot of mistakes. She shouldn’t have kept things from Curtis by bringing Jefferson to Frosa in secret, and she shouldn’t have taken things for granted by not calling James.

Rayna could taste the tears streaming down her cheeks. Her heart was aching terribly inside.

She was about to say something when she noticed Curtis had already reached for his waist and pulled out a gun, aiming it squarely at Jefferson. Her pupils shrank immediately as she lunged toward Jefferson.

“Curtis, no!”

Having owed Jefferson so much, she could no longer continue to do so anymore.

Jefferson, however, reacted even faster than Rayna. He grabbed her and spun around quickly, with his back facing Curtis.

Rayna lay in his tight embrace, and her legs went limp instantly.

Curtis‘ gaze became cold and relentless as he fired a shot with the silencer–equipped gun on Jefferson’s right shoulder.

Jefferson groaned in pain, still holding Rayna tightly in his arms.

“No… Please…” Rayna caught a whiff of blood in the air. She could not push Jefferson away no matter what. Her hands trembled as she cried loudly in his embrace.

Jefferson’s voice rang in her ears. “I’m fine. Don’t cry.”

Tears covered Rayna’s face. She cautiously pushed Jefferson away, just in time to see Curtis and Gabriel walking toward them.

Curtis exuded a frigid and distant vibe as if he had arrived like the winter snow, filling the air with bone–chilling iciness.

Rayna could only stare at him in a daze.

Just when he brushed past her, Curtis suddenly stopped in his tracks and looked at Rayna with his eyes filled with mockery and contempt. He slowly removed the platinum ring from his ring finger and casually tossed it at her.
