His Precious Love

His Precious Love Chapter 116

Chapter 116 Because You Have Fallen For Him

Rayna’s action sent shivers up Jessica’s spine. While walking to the elevator, Jessica could not help but advise, “Don’t take it out on your car since it didn’t do you wrong. What if you damaged the door? You’ll have to send it to the workshop for repair.”

Rayna responded in a calm voice, “Am I angry? I don’t think so. Why should I be angry?”

“Look at you. Pretty sure everyone can read the expression on your face,” Jessica muttered. “I know you’re feeling down. Why don’t you talk to Mr. Faymon? Tell him you don’t want him to get married.”

“He can marry anyone he likes. It has nothing to do with me,” Rayna uttered.

Jessica said, “You’re in love with him.”

“No, I’m not,” Rayna denied.

“If you’re not in love with him, why would you be mad when you learned about his engagement?”

“I’m not mad. I’m just…” Words caught in Rayna’s throat. She scratched her head as her frustration grew. I don’t even know why I’m so annoyed!

Jessica tapped the back of one hand against her other palm as if she saw through Rayna. “See? You’ve fallen for him, but you refuse to admit it. Why are you hiding your feelings? Mr. Faymon is wealthy and handsome, and you’re a good match for him! Even though you didn’t come from a prominent family, you’re a Norham University graduate! Besides that, Mr. Faymon knows you’re smart. That was why he transferred you to a new department and made you a manager. There’s a vast difference between a manager and an ordinary employee. You know that, right?”

“That’s not how I think of him. Besides, he’s Julian’s uncle, so…”

Realization dawned on Jessica upon hearing that. “So that’s your concern, huh? Why let that bother you, Rayna? Now that you’ve divorced Julian, you can marry anyone you like. I’m sure the Faymons will have no problem with you dating Curtis.”

Frustration continued to overwhelm Rayna. She interrupted Jessica, “Enough. So what if I have feelings for him? He’s engaged now. Let’s just put this behind us.”

‘But you…” Jessica did not want to give up persuading Rayna, but upon noticing the murderous glance Rayna shot her, Jessica became ashen-faced.

Knowing Rayna was having a tough time accepting the news, Jessica decided not to rub salt into her wound anymore.

The two women did not speak to each other throughout the walk to the supermarket. Even after they had filled the shopping carts with groceries and made the payment at the counter, they remained silent. While Rayna did not feel like talking because she was frustrated, Jessica kept mum because she dared not add fuel to the fire.

“Miss, you dropped something!”

Rayna and Jessica heard a child’s voice from behind when they were about to walk out of the supermarket with their shopping bags. A young boy ran over and stopped Rayna from leaving.

“This is your car key, right?” The boy showed her a car key in his hand.

Clad in branded clothes and a black baseball cap, the boy exuded a sophisticated aura. The fact that he had rosy cheeks with chiseled facial features also suggested that his parents, too, must be easy on the eyes.

Rayna checked her bag and realized her car key was missing.

“Thank you.” She took the key from the boy. I must have dropped it at the counter just now.

“You’re welcome. Be careful next time!” the boy said. Upon noticing the laces on Rayna’s heels had gotten loose, he squatted down and helped her fasten them.

Jessica exclaimed, “What an adorable kid! Others would have called us madams. Not only is he sweet, but he’s also caring. What a gentleman!”

The boy’s action also caught Rayna by surprise.

She thought it was inappropriate for her to reward the boy with money, so she took a few bottles of yogurt drinks out of the shopping bag and gave them to him. She smiled at him and said, “Thanks for giving me back my car key and helping me with my lace-up heels. I can’t think of a better way to thank you, so here you go—these drinks are for you.”

“Don’t mention it. I’m glad I could help.” The boy waved a dismissive hand instead of accepting the drinks.

Rayna gently pulled his hand over and gave him the drinks. “This is a token of appreciation from me. I might not be able to drive home tonight had you not given me back the key.”

“Come on, take the drinks. They’re delicious!” Jessica thought he looked cute, so she took the opportunity to pinch his cheeks. My goodness, they’re so soft and tender!

After the boy had accepted the drinks, a thirty-year-old rushed over.

“Could you not run around?” the woman reprimanded the boy and helped him put his mask on. “Didn’t I tell you to put your mask on? Look at the dust around you!”

The boy was annoyed. “What dust? We’re in a shopping mall, for goodness sake. I even can’t breathe properly with this mask on.”

“Of course, there is dust everywhere, especially when people are walking around you,” the woman uttered. Upon noticing the yogurt drinks in his hand, she snatched them from him and asked, “Where did you get these?”

Rayna stepped in. “I gave him the drinks. He found my car key, and I gave him these as a thank-you gift…”

“No, thanks. He doesn’t like to drink all these!” The inconsiderate woman tossed the yogurt drinks into a bin without hesitation.

“Hey, how could you—” Jessica was about to explode in rage.

Rayna immediately pulled Jessica away as she could tell that the impolite woman was the boy’s nanny.

After responding with a grin, she said to the woman, “I’m so sorry. We didn’t know that. Anyway, I appreciate this little guy’s help. We’re gonna go now.”

Rayna then dragged Jessica with her, leaving the boy and the nanny standing at the supermarket’s entrance.

“Come on, let’s go.” The nanny held the boy’s hand, yet she could not stop mumbling, “You shouldn’t have picked up random things from the floor. There might be germs all over that car key! I’m sure someone else would have picked that up and returned them the key.”

All of a sudden, the boy pulled his hand away from her.

His reaction caught the woman off guard. When she turned around to look for the boy, he was already rummaging through the bin, looking for the yogurt drinks.

The nanny caught up with him. “Leave them in the bin. Tell me what you want, and I’ll buy it!”

“The germs would have wiped out the entire human race if they were that scary!” The grim-faced young boy raised his voice after pulling down his mask. “I only get to leave the house three times a week, and whenever I’m out, you’d always make me put on a mask and wear a cap. You said you didn’t want me exposed to germs, but deep in your heart, you just didn’t want me to be seen in public!”

The nanny was bereft of words as she did not expect him to figure that out.

“If you feel bored staying at home, I’ll try to get your mom’s permission to take you out more often,” the nanny said. “Your mom is just worried about your safety. All right, let’s go home, shall we?” NôvelDrama.Org content.

“Leave those drinks in the bin. I’ll get you new ones,” she added.

“No! They’re my reward!” The boy hugged the yogurt drinks. To children, rewards meant the world to them if someone appreciated their help.

“How could you take something out from the trash bin…” The nanny panicked.

The boy shot daggers at her and replied aloofly, “Why can’t I? Listen carefully—you’re just a nanny my mom hired to take care of me, so you better show me some respect. If you try to be rude or throw my things away again, I’ll fire you! For your information, I don’t need my mom’s permission to do that!”

“All right, all right. I’ll not do it again.” The nanny broke out in a cold sweat.

The boy might be young, but he exuded a domineering aura that would cause anyone to shudder.

After letting out a cold snort, he took down his cap, tossed it to the nanny, and walked away while hugging the yogurt bottles. The childcare worker had no choice but to catch up with him while carrying his cap and mask.

Meanwhile, all the Faymon Group employees were still hyped about their CEO’s engagement.

Curtis even delivered wedding favors to the office a few days later.

This time, the wedding favors were custom-made by Saint Confectionery. Each box contained only ten chocolates, but its retail price was up to the thousands. Curtis even gave everyone in Faymon Group around six thousand as monetary gifts.
