Chapter 182 What A Move

James nodded. “I didn’t expect that the interpreter from Faymon Group I was ordered to protect is you, Rayna.”

Rayna let out a dry laugh.

So it’s really James! My eyes didn’t play tricks on me!

After learning about those things, Rayna was so astounded that she almost had a heart attack. “All right. Let’s put aside the fact that you lied to me. We’ll talk about you and Ms. Winton.”

Kristie whined piteously, “But Rayna…”

Ignoring her, Rayna looked at James coldly. “Do you want her or me?”

“Rayna, please don’t make things difficult for me. She’s the girl I like, while you’re my sister. Both of you are important to me.” James was put in a tight spot.

“So you want her, huh?”

“Rayna…”

“Fine. I got it. You don’t have to say anything else!” Rayna grabbed her bag and got up. “You are old enough to do what you want. Well, I guess you’ll only learn your lesson after you suffer in life.”

She was about to leave in a huff, but Linda walked over at that moment.

“Mom?” Seeing that it was really Linda, Rayna asked in shock, “Why are you here?”

“My son-in-law sent someone to pick me up and bring me here so we could all have a meal together,” Linda replied. When she noticed that both Curtis and James were present, she said in slight surprise, “Hey, James, you’re here, too?”

Rayna immediately turned around to stare daggers at Curtis, who was calm and composed as ever.

No wonder he has been silent all this while! He’s got this all planned out!

“Ms. Linda,” Curtis greeted politely and didn’t mind being called “son-in-law” by Linda. At the same time, he also gave Kristie a look.

Taking the hint, Kristie got up to help Linda and said dutifully, “Ms. Linda, you must be tired after the journey. Have a seat. I’ll pour you a cup of coffee.”

After pouring a cup of coffee, she politely handed it to Linda.

“Thank you.” Feeling somewhat embarrassed by the treatment she received, Linda beckoned for Kristie to take a seat as well. “You’re as pretty as a celebrity.”

Kristie blushed. “Thank you for your compliment.”

Rayna rolled her eyes.

Poor Kristie. It must be tiring for her to be so pretentious all the time.

Linda took a sip of her coffee and asked James, “Why aren’t you at school? It’s not the weekends.”

“I don’t have class in the morning.” As James spoke, he pulled Kristie to his side. “Mom, this is Kristie, my girlfriend. I came here today to introduce her to Rayna.”

Linda hummed a response, but when James’ words finally sank in, she stammered in surprise, “G-Girlfriend?”

“Ms. Linda, James and I are really in love with each other. Don’t break us up. I’m fine with any amount of betrothal gift,” Kristie said in a meek tone while squatting down next to Linda.

“My mom doesn’t know anything. Don’t fool her. Mom, Ms. Winton is no ordinary woman. She’s a famous celebrity and Mr. Faymon’s sister. I don’t agree with them being together. Their backgrounds are too different.” Rayna refused to let them play on Linda’s emotions.

Linda looked at Kristie and nodded. “No wonder she’s so pretty. The difference in their backgrounds is indeed really huge.”

Rayna breathed a sigh of relief, but to her dismay, Linda added, “I think she and James make a nice couple. She’s such a nice girl.”

“Mom, am I not making it clear enough? How can they make a nice couple? She’s Mr. Faymon’s sister. Do you think any man can marry her? Besides, she’s not nice.” Rayna was about to go crazy.

Curtis said slowly, “It’s true that not anyone is qualified to date Kristie, but I’m okay if it’s James. He’s a smart and bold man with a bright future.”

Rayna shot daggers at Curtis, badly wishing she could gag him with a tablecloth.

“I know you love your brother and want the best for him, but he’s a grown man now. You should let him make his own decisions,” said Linda.

Speechless, Rayna could not help but ask, “Mom, what motivational book have you been reading lately?”
