Chapter 646
Before Rayna lost her memories, she used to address Curtis as “Darling” frequently.
After she lost her memories, however, Curtis noticed that Rayna had grown wary of him. In fact, she hadn't
addressed him so ever since she returned.
At night, when they were both in the same bed, Curtis would habitually want to hug her to sleep. However, Rayna
would somewhat intentionally avoid him. Although he would still end up hugging her in the end, he still minded her
behavioral changes. If I hadn't had so many people testifying for me, she wouldn't have believed that we were
legally married.
“By the way, I heard a conversation you had with Grandpa in the study by accident last night. It was regarding a
project in Yartran that might go south. What does that mean?” Rayna tried to talk about something else to ease the
slightly amorous atmosphere between them.
Curtis, who was getting intimate with Rayna, stopped what he was doing when he heard that. He looked at her in
shock and asked, “You heard that?”
“Yes.” Rayna nodded. “When I got up, you weren't next to me. I-I went out to look for you. I didn't mean to
eavesdrop,” she explained.
Habits were a funny thing. At first, she was uncomfortable sleeping next to Curtis. After some time, she gradually
got used to it.
The night before, she woke up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. That was when she realized Curtis
wasn't in bed. However, the warmth she felt on the sheet on his side of the bed was present. That showed he had
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtonly gotten out of bed moments before she woke up.
She then called out to him in the bedroom, but she didn't get any response. Hence, she got out of bed on her own
to go to the bathroom. Yet, she couldn't see, and she was afraid that she would embarrass herself if anything
happened while she was alone. Holding that thought, she went out to look for him.
To her surprise, she heard the conversation between Curtis and Alfred.
“Prior to this, Faymon Group made a bid for a real estate project in Yartran. Before you got into the accident,
something happened to the project, and it's still not sorted out,” Curtis answered truthfully. This time around, I'm
not going to hide it from Rayna. I don't want anything to happen to her because of the concern she has for me.
After a momentary hesitation, Rayna asked, “Is it a tricky situation?”
“Not really. It's just that we aren't sure about some things, so we don't know how to act,” Curtis answered and soon
noticed something. “Could it be that you have some pointers for me, Rayna?”
“No.” Rayna shook her head and recalled the past events in Yartran. “You said Faymon Group has a project in
Yartran, right? I was originally there before you brought me back. Could it be that these two incidences are
related?”
Curtis came to a realization the moment he heard those words. With a smile on his face, he lowered his head to
kiss Rayna's forehead. “Good job, Rayna! Your reminder came just in time.”
Before that, Curtis was too focused on locating Rayna. Upon finding her, he was then busy looking for medical
teams to treat Rayna's eyes. While I was busy doing all those things, an obvious factor slipped my mind! These two
events happened in Yartran. Could that be a coincidence, or is someone behind it? If someone's pulling the strings
behind the scene, who could it be? What's that person's motive? I need to investigate this thoroughly.
The car slowly came to a halt in the Faymon residence. By then, the drizzle had stopped.
When Curtis was carrying Rayna out of the car, he saw a suited middle-aged man standing in front of the fountain
in the courtyard with his hands behind his back. At that moment, Alfred was standing next to that middle-aged man.
Seeing that Curtis and Rayna were back, Alfred approached them and glanced at Rayna, who was in Curtis' arms.
“You guys are back. Bring your wife in before coming over for a bit.”
“Sure.” Curtis turned his head in the direction that Alfred was looking. There, he saw a few men in military outfits
standing around the middle-aged man. A frown soon appeared on Curtis' face, but he managed to conceal it and
appear calm.
Upon hearing that, Rayna patted Curtis' shoulder lightly and asked, “Is there something you guys need to talk
about?”
“Don't worry, Rayna. Curtis isn't needed right now, so he can bring you up first. It's not a big deal.” Alfred patted
Rayna's shoulder to comfort her after seeing her expression, which looked as if she was guilty for interrupting a
discussion the men were going to have.
Curtis put Rayna in bed in the bedroom and pulled the blanket over her. He wanted to talk to her for a while, but
she urged, “Go to Grandpa, okay? The housekeepers are here, so I'll be fine.”
“I'll come back to you after that.” Curtis leaned down to kiss her cheek. When he did that, he noticed that her ears
turned red. Right away, he was aroused.
It had been more than two weeks since Rayna returned from Yartran, but they still hadn't had sex yet.
Although Rayna didn't say it out loud, Curtis knew she was still guarding herself against him. Hence, he didn't want
to force her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCurtis was still relatively young and full of vigor. It was only natural for him to want to be intimate with his wife.
However, things hadn't been happening due to Rayna's loss of memories and eyesight.
While caressing her cheek with his fingers, the kiss that initially landed on her cheek slowly made its way toward her
lips.
By the time Rayna realized what was happening, Curtis was already kissing her on the lips. She subconsciously
raised her hand to push him away, but he immediately grabbed it.
Curtis' kiss started out soft before it became intense, and Rayna could clearly hear his breathing quicken.
“Curtis... Curtis...” Obviously, Rayna knew that if she were to let Curtis have his way, he would be in bed with her for
the next hour or so. “Curtis, Grandpa is waiting for you.”
Needless to say, Curtis remembered Alfred was still waiting for him. However, he didn't stop kissing her when she
reminded him of that. Instead, he only let go of her reluctantly after he had satisfied his craving. When he saw that
Rayna was blushing after he was done, his lips curled into a satisfied smile. Shortly after, he bent down once more
to kiss her. This time around, Rayna reacted quickly enough and pressed her fingers against his lips. “You... You
should sort out serious matters first.”
Cheeks flushed, Rayna was slightly short of breath when she uttered gently, “There were other people with
Grandpa just now, right? I think they want to talk to you about something important. You better not keep them
waiting.”
Curtis raised his brow slightly when he heard that. “How did you know there were other people around?”
“The atmosphere was different.” Rayna composed her breathing and continued, “The moment I got out of the car,
I could hear people moving about in the courtyard. Unlike the usual case, those footsteps didn't sound heavy or
urgent. In fact, it sounded like those people deliberately lightened their footsteps.”
Curtis smiled in response. “Go on.”
