Chapter 647
Rayna recalled what she heard when she exited the car and said, “Normally, the housekeepers are walking around and talking in the courtyard as they clean. Today. I didn't hear any housekeeper talking. Instead. I could tell that there were a few men in the courtyard with leather shoes on.”
Suddenly. Rayna seemed to have realized something. She reached out to hold Curtis' hand and asked. "Did something happen?”
“No. Nothing happened.” Curtis turned his palm around and held her wrist. "Those were just Grandpa's friends, and they came to catch up with him.”
“Is that so? Are you lying to me just because I can't see?” Rayna wasn't convinced. “I don't like it when people lie to me,” she reminded.
“I'm not lying to you.” Curtis tapped the tip of her nose and placed her palm on his lips. After kissing her palm, he said, “I'll go now. Once I'm done, I'll be back to keep you company.”
“Okay.” Rayna nodded. “On your way out. could you get the nanny to bring the kids here? I would like to spend some time with them.”
“Sure.” Curtis took advantage of her trance to lean forward to kiss her forehead before he spun on liis heels and left the bedroom.
When he arrived at the door to the bedroom, he saw the nanny lingering outside the room with Xareni in her aims. “Bring the kids in for Mis. Faymon,” he instructed.
“Yes, sir.” The nanny immediately heaved a sigh of relief inwardly when she looked into the room and saw Rayna sitting on the bed with all her clothes on.
After exiting the bedroom. Curtis bumped into the butler. When the butler saw that Curtis was about to walk down the stairs, he said, “Mi\ Faymon. Old Mr. Faymon and Commander Clark are on the rooftop.”
Hearing that, Curtis turned around and went upstairs.
The moment he arrived on the rooftop, he saw Alfred and Kelvin Clark sitting under the shade and having a conversation over coffee.
“You're here!” Kelvin noticed Curtis walking toward them and waved at him. “Before this, my secretary told me you have a family of your own now. I couldn't believe it at first! Who would've known that it's true?”
Curtis walked to Alfred's side and pulled a chair for himself to sit opposite Kelvin. “It has been a while, Mr. Clark.”
“Indeed.” Kelvin took a sip of his coffee and flashed a warm smile. “Old Mr. Faymon told me your wife gave you triplets.”
“Yes. That's right,” Curtis replied with a smile. “It's all thanks to my wife.”
Kelvin and Alfred exchanged glances and smiled when they heard that.
Kelvin then moved his fingers back and forth on the edge of the cup and thought about the woman Curtis carried out of the car. “Could your wife be the woman you were carrying just now?”
“Yes, that's my wife.” Although Curtis appeared calm, he was gio wing wary of Kelvin.
For Curtis, Rayna and his children were his Achilles heel. If someone were to use them against him, he would have no choice but to yield.
