His Precious Love

Vivi’s grandmother was preparing dinner. When she saw Vivi bringing guests home, she welcomed Curtis and Rayna with open arms.

As she was a local and rarely went out, her Chanaean wasn’t fluent.

Vivi’s grandmother and her husband went outside to hunt wild rabbits. Vivi accompanied the couple, telling them the fun places to visit at Summerbank and which delicacies to try out.

Rayna and Vivi hit it off as they conversed.

Rayna asked Vivi, “I caught whiffs of perfume on your body. Do you use perfume frequently?”

“Yes. I’m quite a fan of perfume, and I even bought a few types from well-known brands. However, my husband says he likes this one, so I seldom use the other brands,” Vivi replied.

Rayna took out a bottle of tester perfume and sprayed some on Vivi’s wrist. “Try this.”

Vivi wiped the back of her ear with her wrist and took a whiff. Then, she exclaimed in slight surprise, “This is quite nice. What brand is this?”

“This is our company’s new product. It’s not on the market yet. We are here to film the promotional video for this perfume,” Rayna chirped while handing the bottle to her. “I’ll gift you this if you like it.”

“Thank you. This smell so great.” Vivi received the bottle of tester perfume and said firmly, “This fragrance will certainly sell like hotcakes. I’ll help you to promote it when they are marketed.”

“Okay. Thank you, then.” Rayna nodded with a smile.

As she took sips of her coffee, she caught sight of Curtis using his phone to handle his work from the corner of her eyes. He’s so busy. I should’ve come up with an excuse not to go out later to let him handle his work inside the room with peace.

Shortly after, dinner was ready.

Taking in the sight of the rabbit dish, Rayna felt her appetite diminishing.

After she tried to eat a spoonful, she realized Vivi’s mother-in-law’s cooking skill was superb. Subsequently, she no longer rejected the dish.

After eating two plates of spaghetti, she still felt insatiable and wanted to have more.

Curtis, face darkened, stopped her. “Don’t you feel full after having two plates of spaghetti?”
