His Precious Love

Chapter 244 Especially Prepared

“It’s of no use to me,” replied Curtis with a mild yet bitter smile. “I appreciate that you’ve gone through the

trouble.”

Wyatt sighed.

Trouble? I went through quite a bit to investigate this, but this is all it has amounted to.

After Wyatt left, Curtis was left alone in this massive office. He hung his head low, thinking about

something quite intently. After a while, he opened the drawer and pulled out the photographs from inside

the book.

In the past, he had been thinking about what it was going to be like if they met. After much investigation

into his past, he gradually grew more despondent before finally giving up. Now, this information had

landed right in his lap, unannounced.

These people were long gone.

Curtis looked at the couple in the photograph. A bitter smirk tugged on his lips as he mumbled, “Perhaps

it’s for the best.”

Now, he no longer had to mope around thinking about this.

Suddenly, Curtis’ phone vibrated twice.

Rayna had sent him a message, saying: Mr. Faymon, see you at eight this evening. I’d like to treat you to

dinner.

When Rayna arrived at the company, she received a call from the hospital inquiring about her ties to

Linda.

Immediately, Rayna rushed over to the hospital. She then arrived at the ward and saw Linda lying on the

hospital bed with bandages around her hands and legs. The doctor informed her that Linda had fallen

down the stairs, resulting in multiple fractures. She thus needed to stay at the hospital for some time.

After waving the doctor away, Rayna hurriedly crouched next to the bed and asked, “What happened?

How did you take such a massive tumble?”

“I was not careful. However, it felt like someone pushed me,” replied Linda weakly. “I wanted to carry

some books upstairs, but I was looking down when someone gave me a shove from behind.”

Rayna’s expression turned very solemn. “Did you manage to catch a glimpse of this person?”

“No.”

Rayna knew that her mother was not a liar. Thinking that someone had likely attempted to take her

mother’s life, Rayna could feel a shiver go down her spine. After entrusting her mother’s care to a nurse,

Rayna made her way to the library at Linda’s workplace.

Despite the incident, nothing seemed out of the ordinary at the library. The place was operating like

normal as people came and went. However, Rayna was met with disdain when she asked to view the

surveillance footage.

Rayna then picked up the phone and called the police.

It was only when the police arrived that the librarians brought them to the surveillance rooms. However,

the staircase was a blind spot. All they could see was Linda rolling down the stairs and not who pushed

her.

The cameras showed many people going upstairs at different angles, but nobody looked suspicious.

After poring over the footage for over an hour, they found nothing.

The police had other matters to attend to and could not linger. Since they found no clues, they left

quickly.

Just as Rayna exited the library, a man walked over to her and said, “Ms. Garland, there’s no point in

looking into this. You’re not going to find anything.”

Rayna pinned a death glare on him. “You’re responsible for this?”

The man merely replied, “Ms. Rayna, my boss is asking that you wise up and give us what we want.

Otherwise, the next penalty won’t be as mild. Do you understand?”

“Are you working for Mr. Ziegler?” Rayna had been threatened by Mathias before, and the incident was

still fresh in her memory. With a sneer, she added, “In your dreams. I’m not giving him anything.”

Rayna was seeing red.

“Go and tell Mr. Ziegler that I’m not going to forget this incident. He’d better watch his back. If these dirty

tricks are all he has got, then he’s more than welcome to try using all of them!”

The man was stunned by Rayna’s sudden rage. After looking at her once more, the man departed.

Rayna wanted to send a text to James but found that she had been logged out of WhatsApp by a

different user. Daily new chapters upload Only On Alaniniz(dot)com Immediately, she changed the

password and logged in again. Was someone else using this account?

She scanned through her messages and discovered nothing unusual. She then exited the app and

proceeded to call James instead.

When the line was connected, Rayna said, “Mathias Ziegler of Faymon Group thinks that Julian gave me

an unsavory bit of information about him. He tried to force me to give it up and took it out on Mom.”

“How is she doing?”

“She’s fine, but she has multiple fractures,” replied Rayna. “If you’re not busy at school, please look after

Mom. I can’t help you much with that. Have you made progress on the investigation?”

“Mr. Ziegler’s covered his tracks very well. Nothing was left behind, not even a crumb trail to follow,” said

Julian. “However, did Julian truly not give you anything? An email or a USB stick, perhaps?”

“None at all. If he sent out an email, it would have been tracked down by Mr. Ziegler ages ago.” Rayna

shut her eyes and rubbed her sore temples. Just thinking of Julian’s death made her heart ache.

However, Julian had never given her anything.

“I’m not sure who logged into my WhatsApp account,” said Rayna warily. “Can you please look into this

as well? That person never reached out to anyone. It’s truly strange.”

“I’ll look into it.”

“Good. Let me know if you find anything.”
