His Precious Love novel Chapter 168

Chapter 168 Let Me Be Your Brother

It now makes sense why I thought the time was off. I clearly remembered it being Tuesday, but when I woke up, it was already Thursday. It turns out that I had forgotten what happened on Wednesday night.

“Oh my gosh! What should I do?” Those memories were far too vivid. Rayna could not stop herself from rolling around on the bed. “If I had known that the pill had this effect, I wouldn’t have taken it!”

How should I face Curtis now that I know what has happened? This is so embarrassing!

At that moment, Naomi sent a WhatsApp message stating that something urgent had come up in Faymon Group. Rayna quickly responded, saying she would be there in no time. After changing her clothes, she left the mansion. Of course, she did not forget to ask the housekeeper to come to the mansion before she left.

“Nana!” The moment Rayna entered through the revolving door, someone bumped into her from behind. Jessica walked alongside Rayna and commented, “Aren’t you afraid that Mr. Faymon would be upset at you coming to the company?”

In response, Rayna gave her a fleeting glance and uttered, “Get lost.”

“You’re not the Nana I adore. You’re so fierce,” Jessica grumbled, pretending to be sad. After a while, she asked, “You don’t look good. Did Mr. Faymon ‘bully’ you?”

Rayna’s heart skipped a beat when she heard the word Jessica emphasized. “You’re overthinking it.”

“I figured it out from your expression.”

Rayna was bereft of speech and did not say another word.

“Are you going back at noon? If not, let’s go out for lunch. I came across a restaurant that serves excellent steak!” Jessica stated.

“I’m not going!”

“Nana, you’re about to turn cold and ruthless like Mr. Faymon.”

Rayna remained silent.

Jessica continued to babble on as she used her card to gain access to the elevator for the higher-ups. After they entered, a hand stopped the elevator door from closing as it was about to.

“Good morning.”

Wyatt was dressed in a black suit and standing outside the elevator. He had a tall, lean build and looked particularly attractive in a suit as he exuded an air of elegance.

If it were not for his face, Rayna would not have recognized him. “What brings you here?” she inquired.

“Things are getting worse for Faymon Group. I’m here to help you because I worry that you can’t handle it alone.” After getting into the elevator, Wyatt turned around and asked Jessica, “Good morning, gorgeous. Have you eaten breakfast?”

“Yes.” Jessica subconsciously nodded. After casting a second glance his way, she commented, “You look handsome like this. You should stop wearing those gaudy clothes.”

Hearing that, Wyatt twitched the corners of his lips. The next instant, he flashed her a charming smile. “Sure. If you like it, I can wear a suit all day.”

Rayna could not help but roll her eyes.

Goodness gracious. This guy is terrible at picking up women.

As the elevator ascended, Wyatt attempted to strike up a conversation with Jessica, even leaning in her direction. In Rayna’s eyes, he appeared to have never seen a woman in his life before.

Just when Jessica was about to walk out of the elevator, he quickly suggested, “Let’s have lunch together. My treat.”

“All right, but please let me pay for the meal as a token of appreciation for the flowerpot you gave me.”

Upon hearing her words, Wyatt beamed brightly.

At the same time, Rayna gave him a sidelong glance and snickered. “I made a mistake. If I had known you would show up, I would’ve turned on my phone’s video recorder earlier so you could see how you’re behaving right now.”

“Do I look suave?” Wyatt grabbed her shoulders with his outstretched hands. “I’m very confident in my appearance. Even celebrities could not compare to me.”

“Yes. You could certainly portray certain characters well with that face of yours.” Rayna pushed him away with her elbow and remarked, “You should come to Faymon Group often. We have a lot of pretty women here.”

“No. I only like Jessie.”

“Stop being delusional. She doesn’t like you,” reprimanded Rayna.

“It takes time for feelings to develop. I’m not in a rush.” With a grin on his face, Wyatt prodded Rayna and suggested, “Why don’t you take Jessie in as your younger sister?”

“Why should I?”

“I’ll become your brother-in-law if I’m successful in pursuing her.”

Rayna did not respond.
