His Precious Love novel Chapter 56

Chapter 56 Jonathan Lawson

Astrid was thick-skinned enough to say in a joking manner, “Oh, I was just joking.”

“Really? Well, I don’t want to talk to you anymore.” Rayna got up from her seat and said calmly, “Tell Ms. Sienna to find someone else. I can’t help her.”

Curtis might’ve laid several traps in wait for her and didn’t promise her anything besides the five hundred thousand he got from Roxanne, but she felt he was far more reliable than Sienna.

If Curtis hadn’t protected her, Jefferson would’ve shown up personally instead of just sending her flowers.

She refused to believe that Curtis would kick her out of Faymon Group.

“Rayna, are you saying you’re going to take Uncle Curtis and help him?” Astrid grabbed her arm. “Think about this carefully. You don’t want to burn your bridges, do you?”

“If you agree to help Ms. Sienna, you’ll get a reward. You can ask for her help anytime in the future. If you help Curtis, she won’t let you off easily,” Astrid warned.

“Oh, I see.” Rayna was unfazed as she pried Astrid’s hand away. “If I have to make a choice, I’ll choose Mr. Faymon.”

“Rayna, I knew it. You have a relationship with Curtis,” Astrid sneered. Her voice dripped with disdain as she said, “You kept saying Julian cheated on you, but you did the same thing too. You must’ve done something with Curtis in the restroom that day, right?”

Rayna pursed her lips.

She said nothing, so Astrid assumed she felt guilty. Her voice grew steely as she added, “I took photos that day. What will everyone think of you if I were to send those photos out?”

“I said, I don’t have anything to do with Mr. Faymon.” Rayna shot Astrid a look. She had to be careful with her words in case Astrid had a recording device with her.

“Julian and I are divorced, so your photos will only stir up gossip about me for a few days. After that, I will still go to work as usual. However, your action will affect Mr. Faymon and Faymon Group greatly. Since it’s fake, Mr. Faymon won’t admit to it. He will even investigate the matter thoroughly.” Rayna’s lips curled. “Even Ms. Sienna dare not offend him. Are you sure you want to be the target of his wrath?”

Shocked, Astrid took a few steps back as fear rose in her heart.

Even though Curtis wasn’t born a Faymon, he ended up inheriting Faymon Group. Alfred’s brothers dared not express their displeasure. In fact, they were terrified of Curtis.

Curtis was a talented businessman who expanded their business into Epea and increased Faymon Group’s sales every year. Without him, Faymon Group wouldn’t be doing this well.

He seemed friendly but rarely had any contact with the other Faymons unless it was during the holidays. He also hated being in the headlines, and the media outlets knew about that. Even if he were to bring Kristie out for a meal without asking her to put any disguise on, no one dared to write an article about them.

If I were to leak the photos and put Curtis in the spotlight, Rayna wouldn’t be affected. Shawn and I will be the ones who suffer.

“Rayna, you’d better stay out of this.” Instead of threatening her, Astrid said, “If you refuse to help Ms. Sienna, you shouldn’t help Curtis too. Don’t land yourself in hot water.”

“That’s my business. Don’t you worry about that.” Rayna flashed a smile and left with her takeaway food.

Astrid watched as Rayna left the restaurant.

She then fished out a recording pen from her bag and scowled unhappily.

A relative of hers lost her phone, so she checked the surveillance cameras and saw Curtis exiting the restroom after Rayna.

Astrid initially planned to sound Rayna out and threaten her with the information.

Alas, Rayna wasn’t someone to be trifled with. She kept her guard up and ended up giving Astrid a warning instead.

It looks like Rayna is not a pushover. She has finally shown her true colors!
