His Precious Love

Chapter 340 A Chance To Choose

Curtis’ expression was grim. She broke up with me unilaterally and returned everything. Now, she even

resigned from Faymon Group. She just wants nothing to do with me! Am I an object? Why am I getting

thrown around by everyone?

A dozen minutes had gone by, and Curtis was still keeping mum. At that moment, there was a tense

aura around him.

Gabriel’s legs were shivering, and he was on the verge of breaking down. Please say something, Mr.

Faymon. Anything will do.

“Get out.”

Gabriel thought he heard something, but he wasn’t sure. Hence, he turned toward Curtis. Gabriel felt a

chill down his spine when he saw how solemn Curtis’ expression was. “M-Mr. Faymon? What did you

—”

Without even lifting his head, Curtis yelled, “I told you to get the he*l out!”

“Yes!” Gabriel promptly scampered out of the CEO’s office like a mouse.

Right then, Curtis was left alone in the office.

A long while later, Curtis started a program to check the location of the self-defense ring that he had

given Rayna.

The computer screen loaded for a while before showing the location of the ring. According to the

program, the ring was located in a hotel named LockeTiti Hotel in Xenhall, Frosa.

Curtis smirked when he saw the address. Jeremy’s laboratory is in Frosa. It doesn’t take a genius to

figure out why Rayna had brought Jefferson there. However, I didn’t expect her to act so quickly!

Curtis suppressed his anger and searched for LockeTiti Hotel’s contact before making a call.

Meanwhile, after six days on the sea, Rayna and Jefferson finally arrived in the city of Xenhall in Frosa,

which was over thirty thousand kilometers away from Chanaea.

It was drizzling in Xenhall that day. With the temperature just slightly above freezing point, it was so

cold that it could make one shiver all over.

Upon arriving at LockeTiti Hotel, Rayna noticed the line at the reception. Not wanting Jefferson to tire

himself out, she told him to wait in the lounge area while she checked them in.

Moments after Jefferson left, he returned with a cup of hot chocolate. He gave the hot chocolate to

Rayna and said, “I’m all right. I’ve been taking my medication over the past few days, so I feel good. I’ll

wait with you.”

Rayna nodded and took a sip of the hot chocolate.

Five minutes later, it was finally their turn to check in. Rayna handed the passports over and uttered in

fluent Ferropenian, “I want a suite for five days.”

“A moment, please.” The receptionist took the passports and smiled politely.

The receptionist then started checking them in, but the phone suddenly rang. Seeing that her

colleagues were busy, the receptionist answered the phone. “Good day! This is LockeTiti Hotel.”

The person on the other end of the call said something to the receptionist.

“May I know who you’re looking for? I’ll check from my end,” the receptionist replied.

The conversation on the phone went on, and the receptionist suddenly glanced at her computer screen

before raising her gaze toward Rayna.

Rayna was baffled. Why is the receptionist looking at me when she’s on the phone with someone else?

In the next second, the receptionist passed the phone to Rayna and said, “Ms. Garland, Mr. Faymon of

Norwal City in Chanaea would like to have a word with you.”

Norwal City? Mr. Faymon? That has to be Curtis! I came here by ship, and the route I took wasn’t a

common one. Besides, I even had James’ help. How did Curtis find out about my location? He even

called the hotel directly. Rayna knew the answer to her questions when she lifted her hand and saw the

ring.

Unfortunately for her, she forgot to return the ring. Oh my… The self-defense ring has a tracker, and

that’s how Curtis knows my location!

Jefferson was listening intently. He then looked at Rayna and remained silent.

On the other hand, Rayna took a pause before taking the phone and said, “Mr. Faymon.”

Since they had already broken up, she had to address him differently.

“Sandy went to the Faymon residence.” Curtis’ voice was so cold that when Rayna heard it, she could

sense his anger. “I know everything now,” he added.

Rayna’s heart sank when she heard that. I’m one step behind. Arnaud had already told the Faymon

family about it!

She then closed her eyes and uttered in a slightly bitter tone, “Does that include the relationship

between you and—”

“Yes,” Curtis interrupted. “Didn’t we make a promise to never lie to each other? Rayna, you hid a lot of

things from me, and you’ve even brought him to Frosa.”

“I’m sorry.”

Curtis snickered icily in response. There was a hint of despair in his voice when he said, “Rayna, don’t

you know what kind of person I am? Did you think I would kill him after I find out about it? You’re such a

foolish and self-righteous woman! I’m not an irrational teenager! If I were to seek revenge, I would kill

his father and destroy the Terblanc family!”

Rayna gripped her phone tightly, and she started choking up. “I’m sorry, but he’s dying. I can’t watch

him die. After all, I’m the reason he’s in this state.”

“Is that why you chose to trample all over my feelings?”

“No!” Rayna quickly refuted. Couldn’t come up with an explanation, she pleaded, “Curtis, I want him to

continue living. I want to let him try Ixora.”

“Who told you the location of Jeremy’s laboratory? Did Jeremy or Wyatt tell you about it?” Curtis asked.

“I don’t think you’ve asked them. Otherwise, they would’ve told me. Did Jessica tell you about it?”

Rayna said nothing in response.

After a brief moment of silence, Curtis laughed sinisterly, as if he was trying his best to keep himself

composed. “Rayna, I’ll get Mr. Tylinski to fetch you from Frosa. If you were to return, I’ll forget about

you breaking up with me.”

“Please let Mr. York give Ixora to Jefferson.”

“Don’t negotiate with me, Rayna!” Curtis sounded grim. “I know he’s innocent, but what about me?

What have I done wrong? I’m already being very merciful for not killing him but I’m not God!”

Rayna listened quietly, and her eyes were brimming with tears. I know neither Curtis nor Jefferson is

wrong, and Curtis has been more than generous. However, I can’t let Jefferson live for only three

months!

Jefferson, who had been standing next to Rayna in silence, suddenly bent forward and coughed

violently.

Rayna was heartbroken when she saw the blood on Jefferson’s palm. Jefferson needs to take Ixora as

soon as possible. Otherwise, he’s going to die.

Rayna endured the reluctance she was feeling and stammered, “I-I’m sorry, but he has nothing left… I

can’t let him die after three months. I’m truly sorry…”

With that, she ended the call.

Over in Faymon Group in Norwal City, Curtis glanced at his phone in a daze. The words she said were

still ringing in his ears. Gradually, the look in his eyes turned frigid, and his fingers started trembling.

Did she say Jefferson has nothing? What about me? What do I have?

A long while later, Curtis placed the phone on his desk and signed Rayna’s resignation document with

a solemn expression on his face.

Once he was done with the document, he called for Gabriel through the internal landline. I’m not a child

and neither is Rayna. Since she wants to find a way out for Jefferson, I’ll let her be. I’m pissed off, but

there’s no point in smashing things up. I have to be rational. She wants a breakup, no? Let’s tie up all

the loose ends!

By the time Gabriel entered the office fearfully, the frigid look in Curtis’ eyes had disappeared. In fact,

he looked like his usual self.

Curtis threw the document toward Gabriel and ordered flatly, “Hand Ms. Garland’s resignation to the

HR department. After that, assess all the employees in the Department of Regulators before assigning

them to the departments as you deem fit.”

“Mr. Faymon, are you shutting the Department of Regulators down?” Gabriel was stumped. When Ms.

Garland resigned the last time around, Mr. Faymon didn’t shut down the entire department. He kept it

running until Ms. Garland came back and became the manager. This time around, he wants to shut the

department down. Does that mean Mr. Faymon and Ms. Garland have broken up for good? Is he not

letting Ms. Garland come back ever again?
