His Precious Love novel Chapter 121

Chapter 121 Three Women And A Show

Even though the woman walked with hurried steps and seemed fraught with worry, her elegant demeanor had not diminished in the slightest. Before long, she approached Jeremy and the others and nodded politely.

“Hello, nice to meet all of you. I’m Jasmine Sanders, Curtis’ fiancée,” she said, her voice genuinely sweet and comforting.

Rayna had only ever seen the woman in newspapers, so it was a pleasant surprise to find out how much prettier she was in person.

In return, Jeremy introduced himself, Wyatt, and Theodore.

All of a sudden, Jasmine twisted her ankle and almost lost her footing. Since it wasn’t appropriate for Jeremy to help her up, Rayna quickly stepped in and steadied her. “Are you okay, Ms. Sanders?”

“I-I’m okay.”

Rayna could feel Jasmine shaking like a leaf, as though she was trying to hold back her emotions. Thankfully, the latter was quick to recompose herself and pushed Rayna away.

Hmm… Is she worried about Uncle Curtis?

“How’s Curtis now?” Jasmine asked.

“His legs are injured, and he’s still in a coma,” Rayna replied before sharing everything that had happened.

Having only just realized the gravity of the situation, Jasmine was momentarily stunned in silence. “It’s okay. We can discuss the other matters once he’s awake. I’m sure he’ll be fine.”

“Do you want to go in and see him?”

Jasmine shook her head. “No. He needs all the rest he can get now. I’ll wait outside.”

Since it was already the wee hours, Rayna knew it wouldn’t be right to keep everyone at the hospital. Her initial plan was to have Jeremy head back with the others while she stayed behind, but Jasmine promptly suggested that Rayna do the same.

Eventually, everyone was so worried about Curtis that they decided to stay.

Just then, a commotion broke out along the corridor. “Don’t you dare stop me! Let me in! Oh, come on! Are you guys blind? Don’t you recognize me?”

Of course, Rayna and Wyatt knew it was Kristie as soon as they heard the voice.

“Ah! Princess is here!” Wyatt exclaimed as he shouted a couple of orders in the direction of the corridor. Seconds later, a flurry of footsteps sounded, followed by Kristie marching toward the group in a gorgeous red sequined dress.

“You vixen! Is Curt all right?” she demanded while prodding and glaring at Rayna. “If anything were to happen to him, I’ll skin you alive!”

Despite the flicker of irritation, Rayna took a deep breath to calm herself down. Forget it. Now’s not the time to chastise her about her choice of words. ”Mr. Faymon is still in a coma, and his legs are injured.”

After hearing what Rayna had to say, Kristie became visibly upset. “What? Does Curt have to be in a wheelchair for the rest of his life? That’s ludicrous! By the way, I was told you were in the car with him. How did you manage to walk away unscathed? Did you get mad at him after learning about his engagement? Is that why you tried to murder him?”

“Ms. Winton, don’t you think you’re overstepping the mark?” Jasmine gently chimed in. “You read about the accident from the news, didn’t you? It was just a tragic mishap. It has nothing to do with Ms. Garland.”

Upon recognizing who Jasmine was, Kristie rolled her eyes and raised a brow. “I can say whatever the hell I want. What’s it to you? Besides, Curt doesn’t need you to take care of him, so get lost! Do you honestly think he’d fall for someone with a background like yours? He merely pities you! Even this vixen is better than you!”

To everyone’s surprise, Jasmine remained unperturbed. “Curtis is my fiancé. It’s only right that I care for him.”

“Quit putting on an act!”

Realizing that the women might break into a fight at any moment, Jeremy hastily stepped in to defuse the situation. “It’s been a few months, Kristie. Have you forgotten about me and the rest?”

The sight of Jeremy quieted Kristie down immediately as she broke into a sweet smile. “Jeremy! Wyatt!”
