Chapter 425

Jasper clicked his tongue in response. “Mr. Faymon, don’t accuse me of being a cunning businessman when I’m obviously a kind person.”

Curtis couldn’t be bothered to respond.

He led Rayna away, and a pin-drop silence descended upon the private room.

Jasper scanned the surroundings and cocked a brow. “Why is everyone so quiet?”

“Um… About Ms. Garland and Mr. Faymon…” Morton stammered with fear in his eyes. “Didn’t they break up?”

Everyone could clearly see how Curtis had spoken to her affectionately and had had his arm around her when they left.

It sure as hell doesn’t look like it!

Jasper shrugged. “On the surface, yes, but who knows in reality? Mr. Faymon forbids Ms. Garland from working with me. It’s evident Mr. Faymon’s interest in Ms. Garland is far from over.”

Upon hearing those words, the rest of the men were secretly relieved that they didn’t offend Rayna in any way.

Curtis wasn’t just an outstanding young man, but one whose methods were extremely ruthless.

Despite being an adopted son of the Faymon family who started out with a small stake in Faymon Group, he managed to end up taking ownership of the entire company—a feat that was simply unprecedented.

Getting on Curtis’ nerves was the equivalent of committing suicide.

While everyone was sighing in relief, Morton was the only one who looked distraught.

He hadn’t forgotten how he had forced Rayna to drink and ended up having her throw the drink back at him. When he wanted to retaliate, Curtis’ indifferent expression made him assume that things were over between them. Yet, that did not seem to be the case.

I’m doomed!

As he left the club with her in his arms, Curtis was amused at the sight of Rayna peeling an orange while sobbing. “Those are just oranges. Why are you crying so hard over them?”

She makes it look as if someone has bullied her.
