His Precious Love Chapter 17 Open It

It was a rather unnerving meal. Julian would glare at Rayna from time to time as though warning her, “Just wait until we get home.” Even so, the woman pretended not to notice.

She had already moved most of her stuff out of the Faymon residence and didn’t intend to return, anyway.

Suddenly, the man next to her coughed gently and gave her a light kick underneath the table. She turned her head nervously and saw Curtis nod before getting up to go to the restroom.

It took the woman a moment to guess that he was probably waiting for her to explain what had happened earlier today, so she quickly grabbed her purse and headed to the restroom too.

As soon as Rayna arrived in the hallway, someone darted past her.

She looked up and realized that the person who had just overtaken her was Meredith. The latter wrapped herself around Curtis’ arm and pressed her body against him upon nearing him.

“I’m so sorry, Mr. Faymon.” Despite apologizing, Meredith had no intention of moving and spoke in a soft voice. “I think I twisted my foot.”

Curtis remained where he was, not moving an inch.

Meredith grew bolder and began to tug the neckline of her dress downward. “I’ve always admired you, Mr. Faymon. I want to serve you. I know there are lots of other people at Faymon Group. I may not be the best, but I know I work the hardest. If you’re willing to give me a chance, I’d like to follow you to Norham for work.”

Rayna was bereft of words.

I was wondering what she even saw in Julian, but it turns out she’s after this guy, huh?

“I’d do anything to work with you, Mr. Faymon. I’m willing to throw everything away,” Meredith added, wrapping her arms around Curtis’ neck as she moved her crimson lips closer to him.

The very next second, she felt a sharp pang on her wrist as Curtis dragged her aside.

The man’s eyes were expressionless, but they instantly sent a chill down Meredith’s spine.

“I don’t think you need to go anywhere. Maybe you should just quit. Don’t you think so?” Curtis remarked with a sneer.

“F-Forgive me, Mr. Faymon! I’m sorry I crossed the line.” The woman began to panic. She had gone through so much just to get to where she was today, and she certainly wasn’t going to resign over something like this. “I’ll be taking my leave now.”

Seeing her return this way, Rayna hastily lowered her head, and the two women brushed shoulders.

Then she continued forward, only to find her path impeded.

“Now that you’re here, it wouldn’t be nice pretending you didn’t see me. Don’t you agree, Rayna?” Curtis asked while kicking the door to the restroom open and gazing at her knowingly. “Let’s talk.”

Feeling goosebumps on her skin upon being called out, the woman glanced at the restroom before her and had no choice but to enter.
