Chapter 52 Do We Understand Shower Differently
Having said that, James could not help but complain, “Mr. Faymon, don’t you think she’s too spoiled? She’s afraid of the dark, but she wants to turn off the light and wants me to stay on guard. I have to respond immediately when she calls me. I don’t think I can work here for much longer.”
James was not a fussy person. He did not mind sleeping on a chair. However, Kristie was too spoiled that he could not bear with her anymore.
“She just lacks a sense of security,” said Curtis. Curtis had a good impression of James after talking to him for a while. “I’ll ask Gabriel to increase your monthly salary to fifty thousand. Take good care of her.”
James did not respond for a while.
What? Did he say he wants to double my salary? I’ve only told him what happened. D*mn it! I should’ve said more.
Seeing that Curtis took off his jacket and headed toward the guest room, James asked, “Do you want me to wake Ms. Winton up? I’m sleepy too. I want to go down to sleep.”
“No need. I’m just here to take a shower.” Curtis walked in and shut the door right away.
James rubbed his nose in confusion.
I did notice that Mr. Faymon has an unpleasant smell when he came in just now. But did he really just come here to take a shower in the middle of the night? Do we understand “shower” differently?
…
When Rayna woke up in the morning, she felt pain all over her body.
Maybe I fell from the couch and slept on the floor all night long? But how did I come back from the bar? I was pretty drunk last night. I think it was James who picked me up. Didn’t he go back to school already?
Rayna was a little confused about what happened last night. She then saw Jessica lying on the floor with her limbs spread out right in front of her. She hurried over to help Jessica up and patted her face. “Hey, do you remember how we got back last night?”
“I don’t know! Didn’t we come back in the pumpkin carriage?” said Jessica confusedly, rubbing her eyes.
“Are you still dreaming?” Rayna slapped Jessica on her shoulder.
With that, Jessica finally woke up. She tried hard to recollect her memories while brushing her messy hair with her hands. “I remember someone carried me back, and I think I heard someone calling ‘Mr. Faymon’.”
Curtis?
Hearing that, Rayna seemed to remember that it was Curtis who dragged her out of the bar last night. She then felt nauseous and threw up in his car…
While she was trying to recall, the phone in the corner of the couch vibrated.
Rayna pulled out the phone and saw a new WhatsApp message. It was a message from Jonathan, asking her to go to the office. Unable to think much, she hurried to the office with Jessica after washing up.
While she was on the way, she spent some free time to reply a few text messages. Then, she received a greeting message from an unknown number.
She clicked on the contact info and saw Curtis’ name.
Although Curtis would ask her for help sometimes, they usually communicated via email. Rayna could not understand why Curtis contacted her through WhatsApp.
When she was still wondering, her phone vibrated again. Curtis sent her a series of photos.
Rayna clicked on the photos and was shocked to see that they were all her photos. There were photos of her looking drunk, throwing up in his car, and sleeping on the couch in the condominium. She was extremely mortified by those photos.
She was now certain that it was Curtis who came to pick them up from the Heavenly Palace, and not James.
Rayna replied with her trembling hands: Thank you, Mr. Faymon.
Curtis: I’m surprised that you like to get into trouble at the same place twice. I’m glad that I don’t have to worry about you anymore after this.
Rayna instantly blushed.
