His Precious Love

Chapter 70 The Delusional Kristie

Rayna had the most peaceful sleep in her room ever since the day of the assassination. Previously,

when sharing a bedroom with Curtis, she had been extremely cautious and dared not make any sound

when she slept.

This time, she slept comfortably until half-past eight and felt refreshed.

Rayna changed into a casual shirt and a pair of cargo pants. Despite not looking devastatingly beautiful,

she still appeared slim, pretty, and sophisticated. She left her room after applying some light makeup.

Cillian was no longer alone outside the door as there were two other unfamiliar faces.

The two lookout men greeted Rayna, and she smiled in return before turning around and knocking on

Curtis’ door, which was next to hers.

She wanted to ask him about Julian.

Julian is a maternal cousin of the Faymon family, and his father passed away when he was young. After

graduating, he was able to enter the Faymon Group thanks to the Faymon family members among the

higher-ups who were looking out for him. But I don’t understand why he wishes to steal this partnership

when he’s well aware that Curtis is not someone to be trifled with. Which member of the Faymon family

is he siding with? Ms. Sienna?

“Good morning, Ms. Garland.” Gabriel walked over from the corridor just as Rayna rang the doorbell

twice. “I just sent Mr. Faymon to Eleven Restaurant. He has an important business to discuss today,” he

informed.

“Really?” She was slightly taken aback as she did not expect Curtis to have other businesses in

Tyrandas. “I’ll go back to my room then. Let me know when Mr. Faymon comes back.”

Gabriel adjusted his glasses. “You’ve regained your voice entirely, Ms. Garland?” he asked.

Rayna nodded and rubbed her smooth neck as she replied, “I also didn’t expect that medicine to be so

effective, as did the wound medication. The bruises on my neck are gone. Please thank Mr. Faymon on

my behalf.”

“All right.” While Gabriel was saying that, he also felt puzzled deep down. The doctor prescribed the

medicine a few days ago, but why is she thanking Mr. Faymon instead of the doctor?

Rayna excused herself after hearing Gabriel’s phone ring. “Go ahead with your work.”

Since she had not had breakfast yet, she went downstairs to do so before returning to settle her work.

Rayna went down to the restaurant floor and had just settled down to eat a plate of food she had chosen

from a variety of breakfast options when Gabriel unexpectedly approached her.

“Ms. Garland, the interpreter we hired from the translation agency can’t come over today because of

some issues. Since you happen to speak Sylvonican, can you go over and help? Of course, your salary

for the day will be paid separately.”

Rayna nearly spat out the oatmeal in her mouth. She wiped the corners of her mouth with a tissue and

said awkwardly, “I realized that Mr. Faymon is quite unlucky. Every time he discusses a collaboration,

something will happen.”

Previously, it was errors in the document. This time, after arriving at Tyrandas, something happened to

the interpreter.

“Stuff happens.” Gabriel adjusted his glasses before continuing, “When you finish eating, Ms. Garland, I’ll

have someone take you there. The negotiation starts at ten, so you still have time.”

Rayna responded curtly since she could not refuse, “Okay.”

After all, I’m an employee of Faymon Group who accompanied my boss here for business, so if there’s

anything that requires my help, I’ll have to take over!

After breakfast, she did not have time to change and hurried downstairs.

A taxi had just arrived at the entrance of the hotel. The driver rolled down the window.

“Get in, Ms. Garland.” The driver spoke fluent Anglandurn. “I’ll get you to Eleven Restaurant before ten.”

Seeing as the driver knew her surname and also the time and location, Rayna assumed that he was sent

by Gabriel and got into the car without a second thought.

The car was locked with a click.

Rayna kept herself busy by taking out her phone and turning on the navigation to search for Eleven

Restaurant, discovering that the place was not far and a forty-minute journey away.

The driver informed her that he was taking the side road to get there quicker since the main road was

congested.

The taxi turned around following the turning of the steering wheel. However, Rayna noticed that the route

on her phone had not changed, and her face slowly turned grim.

The fact that the route didn’t change means that the driver is lying and isn’t planning to take me to

Eleven Restaurant.

She tried pressing the button to roll down the window but discovered that it was broken and that the door

was also tightly secured. Her suspicion was reinforced when she sensed the car picking up speed at the

same time.

The driver glanced at her through the rearview mirror and smiled, still acting innocent. “Don’t panic, Ms.

Garland. I did take the side road. We’ll arrive at the restaurant soon.”

“Am I panicking? I merely want to open the window to get some air,” Rayna replied, her red lips curled

into a smile. While remaining calm, she fumbled in the corner where the driver could not see to make a

call.

The smell in the car was getting worse and somewhat resembled diethyl ether.

Just as Rayna made the call and wanted to cover her mouth with her clothes, the driver in front had long

covered his mouth and nose, and she passed out after inhaling too much ether.

She was sitting on a chair with her wrists and feet bound when she regained consciousness.

Someone was also seated on the chair in front of her, one meter away.

“Hey, are you awake?” Kristie seemed to like red very much as she was wearing a pretty red plaid skirt

that day. She leaned against the chair lazily with her legs crossed, looking like an arrogant princess.

Rayna calmed down when she saw Kristie. Thank goodness it’s this spoiled lady. I’m in no danger.

“Ms. Winton, you can be frank if you wish to discuss something with me. There’s no need to tie me up,”

Rayna said.

“Do you think you can discuss anything with me?” Kristie scowled as she got up and approached Rayna

before digging her nails into the other woman’s face. “A person like you is not even worthy of carrying my

shoes!” she uttered through gritted teeth.

“I knew you were a vixen! Back in the country, you’ve had your eye on Curt, and since you arrived here

with him, you’ve grown more daring. How dare you share a room with Curt?”

Kristie was enraged when she recalled what she had heard on the phone that day.

I’ve followed Curtis around for so long and have been to his mansion many times, but I can’t even get his

keycard. However, this woman can swagger in and out of his mansion as if she owns it. In the past, Curt

would take me with him no matter where he went on a business trip. But now, forget about taking me, he

doesn’t even take his company secretaries with him, only this vixen!

She simply could not tolerate it, and the same evening that she attended the ceremony in Epea, she took

a flight to Tyrandas.

I must teach Rayna a lesson and show her who’s boss!

“Mr. Faymon and I are nothing more than boss and employee, Ms. Winton.” Rayna’s eyebrow twitched.

Kristie truly amazes me. There are so many women in the company, yet, she only sees me as her

imaginary love rival.

Kristie looked scornfully at her. “Even if you keep repeating it, I won’t believe you. I must teach you a

lesson today and let you know who Curt’s woman is!”

The aura of delusion that hit Rayna rendered her speechless and left her feeling suffocated.

“Rayna, I know that you’re rushing to assist Curt in negotiating a collaboration, but…” Kristie drawled, her

eyes gleaming viciously. “I won’t let you go! I’ll make sure you won’t be able to appear in that restaurant

today. If the collaboration doesn’t work out, Curt will surely kick you out of Faymon Group.”

Rayna curled her lips up slightly. “I don’t mind since an interpreter is sought after everywhere. It is you

who would be miserable, Ms. Winton. If you mess up the collaboration, Mr. Faymon will surely be angry,

right?”

“Hmph! It’s just a collaboration. No biggie.” Kristie made nothing of it. “I can earn back the money of the

collaboration from the sales of a single movie!”

As she said that, she glared at Rayna. “It’s not as though I’ve never written an apology letter, so I’m not

afraid of doing it again! In any case, I won’t let you show up at the restaurant today.”

Rayna spared Curtis a moment of silence.
