His Precious Love novel Chapter 139

Chapter 139 Am I A Pawn Too

Curtis quietly waited for her to continue.

Rayna listened to his soft breathing for a while. Once she recollected herself a little more, she whispered gloomily, “Uncle Curtis, I don’t think I’m suitable for things like these. I’ve made everything worse. This is just a worksite accident and an embezzlement case of a management-level employee… It’s just a simple thing, and there are plenty of capable individuals in Faymon Group. So why can’t I resolve them? I feel like a failure.”

Rayna did not even feel as bad when her father had gotten a divorce from her mother and back when life had been even more challenging.

She felt she had done so poorly no one could bring themself to give her their approval.

“Rayna, no one in this world is perfect, and what people excel in is pointing out the flaws of others,” Curtis said. “You have to try things out to know what you do well in. Ignore what others have to say about you. You’re already doing a great job. You’ve managed Faymon Group so well while I was in a coma, and that is a tough job. If you’re overwhelmed by this, I’ll get Wyatt and the others to help you out in the office.”

Curtis wanted to force her to develop into an even better individual and to make her develop an ambitious mind. However, he did not want to force her to the end of the road.

He needed to know her limits.

Right as Curtis was about to tell her that she should rest for a few days, Rayna said, “I don’t want to trouble you, Mr. Faymon. I can deal with this myself. You’re right. How will I know where my limits lie if I don’t try things out?”

Hearing that, Curtis let out a low chuckle.

It seems that my worries are unnecessary. She’s capable of handling stress much better than I thought.

Rayna was flustered when she heard the man chuckle.

“Mr. Faymon, w-what are you laughing at?”

“Nothing. Ask me anytime if you have anything you can’t solve. You haven’t opened the document I gave you, right?”

“I… forgot about it.” Rayna had been too busy, and she had almost forgotten about the document Curtis had given to her. “I’ll go to the office to check it tomorrow.”

Fearing that Curtis would hold her accountable for her forgetfulness, she quickly changed the topic and talked to him about the documents she did not quite grasp. Curtis patiently listened to her and explained what she did not comprehend.

Rayna took a notebook and noted down the things he said—those were valuable advice.

“Sherfield Corporation is asking for collaboration with Faymon Group because they saw Faymon Group’s shares falling. They’re trying to take the opportunity to get a good deal. Their CEO wants money and nothing else, so just ignore them.”

Curtis taught Rayna how to read the room and negotiate with others. Eventually, Rayna stopped responding to him. The only sound he heard was her soft breathing.

Curtis froze.

He said nothing else and ended the call. Then, he sent her a message about the things he did not manage to finish telling her.

Rayna only recalled falling asleep mid-call the night before when she woke up the next day and saw Curtis’ message. Her face flushed from the embarrassment, and she cursed herself for how dumb she was.

This is so embarrassing!

Worried that Rayna was still affected by the news, Jessica had woken up early to prepare breakfast to console Rayna. Yet, to her surprise, Rayna was in a good mood. She looked as though she had won the jackpot.

Jessica asked in bewilderment, “You recompose yourself this quickly?”

“All my worries are gone after a good night’s sleep.” Rayna smiled. Her good mood was mainly due to Curtis’ talk with her the night before. “By the way, how goes the talk with my brother?”
