His Precious Love

Chapter 257 Never Thought I Would Like You This Much 2

Wyatt shot Curtis a glance and asked with a mischievous grin, “Hey, Curtis! What’s with that outfit? Are

you planning to go on a date with Ms. Garland today?”

Curtis shot him an icy-cold glare. “F*ck off!”

“Sure thing!”

Wyatt was about to leave when Curtis called out to him, “Wait!” He then shifted his gaze toward the bag

of breakfast in Wyatt’s hand as he asked, “Why did you bring breakfast over?”

“My girlfriend lives here. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with me bringing my girlfriend breakfast, is

there? Well, I doubt someone like you would understand, though.”

“I’ll go upstairs with you,” Curtis said while locking his car doors.

“A-Are you going to steal my girlfriend, Curtis?” Wyatt asked with a terrified look on his face.

“Don’t worry. Unlike you, my taste isn’t that strange.”

“Hey! Jessie is cute, okay?” Wyatt snapped back at him angrily, only to shrink in fear when Curtis shot

him a cold glare.

Jessica came running toward the door when she heard the doorbell. She had just opened the door when

Wyatt gave her a kiss on the cheek.

“Hey, Jessie! Did you miss me?”

“No! Why would I miss someone who just ruined my makeup?” Jessica replied with a pout and smacked

his head aside. That was when she saw Curtis standing behind Wyatt. “Oh, Mr. Faymon! You’re here

too?”

Curtis nodded and said calmly, “Yes, I came to see Ms. Garland.”

“Ah, you came at the wrong time, Mr. Faymon. Nana isn’t in at the moment.” Jessica deliberately raised

her voice as she added, “She went to keep her mother company at the hospital yesterday night.”

“Is that so?” Curtis’ penetrating gaze sent shivers down her spine.

Jessica nuzzled against Wyatt’s chest. “Y-Yeah! You should go look for her at the hospital, Mr. Faymon.

We’re about to have breakfast now.”

“You’re scaring my girlfriend, Curtis. Ms. Garland isn’t here, so you should seek her out at General

Hospital. It’s only a few minutes away!” Wyatt complained with a displeased look on his face.

Curtis was about to turn around and leave when one of the bedroom doors opened. Rayna then stepped

out in her pajamas with her hair in a total mess.

Unaware of Curtis and Wyatt standing at the door, she said, “Could you help take out the trash, Jessie?

Oh, by the way, just give him the name of a random hospital if he asks. I don’t want him looking for me

there—”

It wasn’t until she turned and saw the people at the door that she froze in shock.

“Good morning, Ms. Garland,” Curtis greeted her with an eyebrow arched.

Rayna paused for a few seconds before running back into the room and shutting the door.

“Babe, I thought you said Rayna went to the hospital last night?” Wyatt asked in surprise.

“Yeah, she did. Maybe she came back in the middle of the night!” Jessica replied with an awkward

chuckle.

Oh, Rayna! You wanted me to help cover up for you, and yet, you’re the one who exposed yourself to

him!

Noticing the look on Curtis’ face, Wyatt knew it would be a bad idea for them to stick around. He quickly

placed the food down on the dining table and grabbed Jessica’s coat and handbag.

“You haven’t had breakfast, right, Curtis? I’ll leave this food here for you and Rayna. Jessica and I will

have our breakfast outside instead,” he said while dragging Jessica out the front door.

Jessica was still shivering in fear when they got inside the elevator. “Do you think Nana will be okay?”

Wyatt clicked his tongue. “It’s hard to say. You saw the look on Curtis’ face.”

Curtis sat down in the living room and waited patiently. After what seemed like forever, he glanced at his

watch and frowned impatiently.

That woman has been in there for an hour!

He then walked up to the room and knocked on the door. “Ms. Garland, I’ll kick the door open if you don’t

come out in ten minutes,” he said before returning to the couch.

Curtis arched an eyebrow when he saw that the door remained shut ten minutes later. He was about to

kick at the door when it opened from the inside.

“What is it, Mr. Faymon?” Rayna asked with a displeased look on her face.

Curtis handed her a tote bag. “I got this as a gift while shopping for clothes. Go ahead and get changed.

We’re going on vacation.”

“I’ll be visiting my mom at the hospital later.”

“Okay, I’ll send you there.”

“She doesn’t want to see you.”

“That’s fine. I’ll wait for you outside the ward.”

Rayna gave up on trying to come up with excuses after he countered them all. “Fine, I’ll go out with you. I

have my own set of clothes, though.”

“If you choose to wear your own clothes, then you won’t be allowed to wear a face mask,” Curtis replied

nonchalantly.

“Okay, I’ll get changed!” Rayna shouted through clenched teeth as she snatched the tote bag from his

hands. Right as she was about to shut the room door, her Ragdoll kitten came running out and bumped

into Curtis’ leg.

Curtis tensed up instantly, and his expression turned gloomy when he lowered his gaze and saw the

furry creature nuzzling against him.

He then looked up at Rayna and said, “Get your cat away from me.”

“This is my place, so it can go wherever it likes.” Rayna flashed him a mischievous grin as she

continued, “I’ll go get changed now. You’d better not bully my cat!”

The corner of Curtis’ lips twitched as he stared at the white cat fur on his pants. He tried moving his leg

away, only to have the kitten meow as it rolled over and lay on his foot.

As if having a dog at home wasn’t bad enough, now I have to deal with a cat as well! The dog wasn’t all

that furry, but this cat is practically a huge ball of fur! I don’t understand what Rayna likes about it!

“Do you mind getting off me? Get off me, I said! I have a bad temper, you know? I’ll kick you if you don’t

get off my foot! Hey, don’t look at me like that! Roll over right this instant!”

Just like that, Curtis stood there in the living room and threatened the kitten for about three minutes

straight.

Eventually, it rolled over to the side. Seizing the opportunity, Curtis pulled his leg free and ran toward the

couch.

However, the small creature was faster and charged at his leg before he could even sit down.

Curtis let out an amused chuckle when he saw how clingy the cat was. He didn’t dare touch the cat’s fur,

so he could only stare at the animal and let out a helpless sigh. “If only your owner would cling to me like

you do.”

Hmm… Then again, Rayna wouldn’t be herself without that temper of hers. I like her because of how

feisty she can be.

Rayna vaguely heard Curtis say something as she was coming out of her room. She asked, “What did

you say?”

“I said the cat is really cute,” Curtis replied as he looked up and saw her wearing a casual outfit that

matched his. She had on a pleated skirt that exposed her slender legs for the world to see.

Her appearance was lovely, but Curtis was displeased.

“You have sweatpants, don’t you? Why would you wear a short skirt?” he asked with an unhappy frown.

“I’m not going for a run, so why would I wear sweatpants? They’re so ugly! This skirt, on the other hand,

goes well with my top. Also, it has shorts underneath, so no one’s going to see anything.”

“Aren’t you worried your legs would feel cold?”

Rayna looked out the window. “It’s not cold outside. Look, the sun is shining brightly in the sky!”

“Go get changed!”

Rayna lost her temper when she heard that. “I’m not changing! You’re the one who asked me to go out

with you, so why are you making so many ridiculous demands? Listen, you can either go out with me

looking like this or get out of my house!”

Realizing that she was genuinely angry at him, Curtis took a step back and said, “Fine, you can wear a

skirt, but it has to be long enough to cover your ankles.”

Rayna was close to punching him in the face at that point. “I’d rather wear sweatpants than go out in a

skirt that long!”

“Then go put on your sweatpants.”

Rayna glared furiously at him for a few seconds before storming back into her room.
