Dear sweetheart novel (Rayna and Julian) novel Chapter 675

Chapter 675

When Frank heard Ills wife's complaints, he folded the newspaper and removed liis glasses to look at the woman dressed in a gown. “Sheena's not a child anymore. She knows what she's doing. Besides. I didn't force her into the marriage. She was the one who agreed to it first. Wanda, you should let young people deal with their own matters.”

“Deal with their own matters? How is Sheena going to deal with it? That boy's a crown prince. This marriage was agreed upon by both parties in the first place. Besides. I didn't put a stop to the marriage because I thought there was something going on between them. Remember what you told me back then? You said the crown prince seems to be sincere about Sheena and that he was not faking liis feelings.” Wanda repeated everything Frank told her in the past. She then stepped forward and snatched the folded papers that were still in Frank's hands. “I'm warning you. Frank. I don't care how ambitious you men are in your career, but if you sacrifice my dear Sheena for it. I'll make you pay.” With that, she tossed the newspaper back to him.

A crease appeared on Frank's forehead as he stared at the newspapers Wanda had crumpled. As he put on his glasses to continue reading the papers, he thought he should at least show some concern. On second thought, he wax ed his hand and gestured for his butler. Waldo, to come over.

“Yes. Old Powell? Is there anything I can do for you?” asked Waldo after arriving before Frank.

“Find out the crown prince's situation,” said Frank. He looked up and shot Waldo a look before waving his hand. "Don't tell anyone about this.”

“Of course.” Waldo nodded and left quietly.

Sitting on the couch. Frank threw liis crumpled newspaper into the trash can and strolled toward the backyard door.

Meanwhile. Rayna could not fall asleep even after lying on the hotel bed for some time. After tossing and turning around, she sat up. leaned against the headboard, and spaced out.

Curtis, who returned from the balcony after his smoking session, saw Rayna sitting by the headboard. Her pajamas were so big that they looked loose-fitting on her. so much so that her left shoulder strap had slipped oft' to reveal her thin shoulder.

He walked to the edge of the bed and adjusted her clothes. "Why aren't you sleeping?”

Rayna held his wrist and said. “I slept too much on the way here. I can't fall asleep now.”

Pausing briefly, she asked. “Were you smoking?” She caught a faint smell of tobacco the moment Curtis entered the room.

Softly, he answered. “Yep. I was thinking about some things. The smell will be gone once I take a shower later." He knew Rayna did not like the smell of tobacco, so he rarely smoked under normal circumstances.

Suddenly. Rayna stretched her hand out and pouted. "Give me a hug.”

Seeing that. Curtis' lips curled into a smile as he sat on the bed and hugged her. “Are you not afraid of the smell anymore?”

Rayna rested her head on liis shoulders. “It's not too strong." she said, shaking her head.

Curtis smoked a cigar earlier: the smell of smoke was faint. On top of that, he had been staying on the balcony for some time, so most of the smell was practically gone. A person who usually smoked would not detect it, but people who did not smoke or were more sensitive toward the smell would notice it. Rayna was one of the latter.

After a moment of silence. Rayna finally said. “I was just thinking, will my life be affected if the parasite stays in my body?”

Truth was. she was more worried about the parasite controlling her body, like how it was portrayed in novels and movies.

Curtis' aims that were around her stiffened, and he lowered his gaze to study her. "Why the sudden question?”

“That's what it's like in movies and novels. The minds of those who got infested by parasites will become controlled by it. Say. do you think the stories in movies are fake? Or are they based on true stories?” As she was saying that, a confused yet cheeky look was written all over her face.
