His Precious Love

Rayna’s eyes teared up a little as she said, “It’s unlikely. Curtis has already found someone that he loves even more.”

“Huh… But I think you two are the most suitable for each other.”

Rayna gave him another pinch on the nose. “All right, let’s stop talking about Curtis. I may not be dating him, but I’ll still treat you all the same. Don’t tell me you’re giving up on my daughter just because Curtis and I aren’t together?”

Carl shook his head and said confidently, “I stand firm on my decision! I will be your son-in-law no matter who you marry in the future!”

Rayna nodded with a satisfied grin. “That’s more like it.”

She brought Carl into her office and handed him a box of snacks that she bought online.

“Whoa! You’ve got so many snacks! And here I thought you’d count your calories like my mom always does! She’s really scared of getting fat! I don’t even eat this many snacks in half a year!” Carl exclaimed while rummaging through the box of snacks.

“I’m not afraid of being fat, so I can eat whatever I like.” Feeling a little hungry, Rayna grabbed a chocolate bar from the box and started munching away.

For some reason, she had been eating really well ever since she returned to Chanaea. Seeing her tummy slowly get bigger set her heart at ease.

She decided to go get an examination when she wasn’t so busy with work.

Since she still had some work to do, she handed Carl a tablet to keep him entertained as he waited.

Carl sat on the couch and snacked on some chips while watching an Anglandurn film on the tablet.

He was halfway through the film when his phone vibrated inside his pocket.

A glance at the screen revealed that it was a text from Curtis: Your mom went overseas this morning. Do you want to come to stay with me? Or would you prefer to remain at your house? I’ll have the housekeeper look after you if you choose to stay home.
