“What do you think I’m going to do?” Curtis gave her a pointed look as he strode toward her. His gaze was still cool.
As he advanced toward her slowly, Rayna felt like every step he took inched closer to her heart.
“W-What a-are you doing?” stammered Rayna.
She was so flustered that she subconsciously shielded her chest.
After all, Curtis had removed his cufflinks and unbuttoned his shirt. How could she not tell?
Rayna knew that when Curtis was angry, she was going to deal with certain repercussions.
“What’s wrong, Ms. Garland? Cat got your tongue?” asked Curtis mildly. From the corner of his eye, he noticed that Rayna was showing a bit of skin. Immediately, his gaze darkened.
“I… I’m a little unwell. I need to see a doctor.” Seeing that Curtis was inching ever closer, Rayna tensed her shoulders. She had so much to do, and the unfinished tasks made her feel anxious.
Rayna wanted to go back to Marcus’ room to retrieve the camera. She did not have time for Curtis’ games.
Seeing that Curtis said nothing, Rayna raised her head gingerly to look at him and said, “I’m really feeling unwell. I’m not lying. Why don’t you get a doctor? When the doctor arrives, you’ll soon find out whether or not I’m lying. I swear I’m not.”
Very earnestly, Rayna made the gesture for a vow, as if she were concerned that Curtis was not going to believe her.
Curtis smirked at her scornfully. “Ms. Garland, I’m afraid I have little faith in your vows. If I’d not known you any better, I’d have thought you were a really good actress. It’s a fine show you’re putting on now.”
Rayna turned pale when she heard Curtis mocking her. I think this man isn’t going to let me off the hook.
“What’s the matter? Have I said something wrong? You’re either a seasoned liar, or you like the attention of men on you.”
The more outrageous the accusations, the deeper Rayna blushed. With a slight shudder of rage in her voice, Rayna hissed, “Just what the he*l are you on about?”
