Dear sweetheart novel (Rayna and Julian) novel Chapter 664

Chapter 664

“You worry too much. Ms. Griffith. I'm not in that line of work.’’ Amused, the man chuckled before continuing. "I won't have to ding you if you're willing to leave with me. Otherwise, you leave me no choice but to render you unconscious.’’

Even though the man spoke in a gentle tone. Rayna could not help but felt a chill running down her spine. “I don't know you. so how do I know I'll be safe if I leave with you?”

From the man's tone. Rayna could tell that he was no average kidnapper, so she tried to negotiate with him calmly to avoid provoking him unnecessarily. After all. upsetting him would do her no good but get her into more trouble.

“We've met before." replied the man. His tone of voice remained calm and gentle. “It was more than ten years ago. You looked for me on the mountain with your brother back then.”

“You're that old traditional medicine practitioner?” Rayna could hardly believe what she had just heard.

“That's right.” When the man saw how he had helped jog Rayna's memory of him. he stopped threatening her and hoped she would cooperate willingly.

“I mean you no harm. Ms. Griffith; I just need something in you as a medicine primer. Don't worry. It's not pail of you. just something temporary. I'm sure Mr. Faymon wouldn't want you to keep it anyway.” explained the practitioner. However, he did not mention a word about the parasite since he did not want to scare Rayna.

“But my husband isn't here yet: I can't just leave with you.” Rayna remained vigilant even though she was somewhat relieved to discover that the person before her was the old traditional medicine practitioner. "Besides, you're the reason my husband and I came here. Now that you've found me instead, we need to wait for my husband so—”

Rayna suddenly got interrupted by the siren of a police car coming from outside the hotel and did not manage to finish her sentence.

Before she could react, the room was filled with a soft scent that quickly knocked her out.

Just when the practitioner was picking up the unconscious Rayna. the bodyguard on the other side of the door walked in. “I thought you said you weren't going to hurt her. What is this?”

“That's not what I'm trying to do: I need to leave with her as soon as possible because the police are here. I don't have time.” With that, the practitioner left the room with Rayna. followed by the bodyguard.

Outside the hotel room were two bodyguards rendered utterly unconscious.

Wlien Curtis failed to reach Rayna or the bodyguards assigned to protect her by phone, he ordered before rushing downhill. “You two stay here: the rest of you come with me!”

Two hours had passed when Curtis finally reached the hotel, so naturally. Rayna was already long gone. Curtis then called Rayna's phone again and realized that it was vibrating in the drawer by the bedside. He immediately staggered backward when he confirmed that the device belonged to Rayna. If it were not for Robin's quick reaction. Curtis would have fallen to the ground.

“Go. Robin. Get somebody to contact the local police. Hurry!” Curtis commanded Robin in a shaky voice, and immediately after hearing that, the assistant took action.

Curtis almost lost Ills mind when he found Rayna missing once again. It was my fault: I shouldn't have left her. I've already noticed how involved she was with the tilings that happened lately, yet I... was still careless.
