His Precious Love

His Precious Love Chapter 121

Chapter 121 Three Women And A Show

Even though the woman walked with hurried steps and seemed fraught with worry, her elegant demeanor had not diminished in the slightest. Before long, she approached Jeremy and the others and nodded politely.

“Hello, nice to meet all of you. I’m Jasmine Sanders, Curtis’ fiancée,” she said, her voice genuinely sweet and comforting.

Rayna had only ever seen the woman in newspapers, so it was a pleasant surprise to find out how much prettier she was in person.

In return, Jeremy introduced himself, Wyatt, and Theodore.

All of a sudden, Jasmine twisted her ankle and almost lost her footing. Since it wasn’t appropriate for Jeremy to help her up, Rayna quickly stepped in and steadied her. “Are you okay, Ms. Sanders?”

“I-I’m okay.”

Rayna could feel Jasmine shaking like a leaf, as though she was trying to hold back her emotions. Thankfully, the latter was quick to recompose herself and pushed Rayna away.

Hmm… Is she worried about Uncle Curtis?

“How’s Curtis now?” Jasmine asked.

“His legs are injured, and he’s still in a coma,” Rayna replied before sharing everything that had happened.

Having only just realized the gravity of the situation, Jasmine was momentarily stunned in silence. “It’s okay. We can discuss the other matters once he’s awake. I’m sure he’ll be fine.”

“Do you want to go in and see him?”

Jasmine shook her head. “No. He needs all the rest he can get now. I’ll wait outside.”

Since it was already the wee hours, Rayna knew it wouldn’t be right to keep everyone at the hospital. Her initial plan was to have Jeremy head back with the others while she stayed behind, but Jasmine promptly suggested that Rayna do the same.

Eventually, everyone was so worried about Curtis that they decided to stay.

Just then, a commotion broke out along the corridor. “Don’t you dare stop me! Let me in! Oh, come on! Are you guys blind? Don’t you recognize me?”

Of course, Rayna and Wyatt knew it was Kristie as soon as they heard the voice.

“Ah! Princess is here!” Wyatt exclaimed as he shouted a couple of orders in the direction of the corridor. Seconds later, a flurry of footsteps sounded, followed by Kristie marching toward the group in a gorgeous red sequined dress.

“You vixen! Is Curt all right?” she demanded while prodding and glaring at Rayna. “If anything were to happen to him, I’ll skin you alive!”

Despite the flicker of irritation, Rayna took a deep breath to calm herself down. Forget it. Now’s not the time to chastise her about her choice of words. ”Mr. Faymon is still in a coma, and his legs are injured.”

After hearing what Rayna had to say, Kristie became visibly upset. “What? Does Curt have to be in a wheelchair for the rest of his life? That’s ludicrous! By the way, I was told you were in the car with him.

How did you manage to walk away unscathed? Did you get mad at him after learning about his engagement? Is that why you tried to murder him?”

“Ms. Winton, don’t you think you’re overstepping the mark?” Jasmine gently chimed in. “You read about the accident from the news, didn’t you? It was just a tragic mishap. It has nothing to do with Ms. Garland.”

Upon recognizing who Jasmine was, Kristie rolled her eyes and raised a brow. “I can say whatever the hell I want. What’s it to you? Besides, Curt doesn’t need you to take care of him, so get lost! Do you honestly think he’d fall for someone with a background like yours? He merely pities you! Even this vixen is better than you!”

To everyone’s surprise, Jasmine remained unperturbed. “Curtis is my fiancé. It’s only right that I care for him.”

“Quit putting on an act!”

Realizing that the women might break into a fight at any moment, Jeremy hastily stepped in to defuse the situation. “It’s been a few months, Kristie. Have you forgotten about me and the rest?”

The sight of Jeremy quieted Kristie down immediately as she broke into a sweet smile. “Jeremy! Wyatt!”

“That’s my princess! Come, let me hug you!” Wyatt uttered, beaming from ear to ear. Alas, he had only just spread his arms when Kristie abruptly threw herself at Theodore unexpectedly.

Wyatt couldn’t help but suck in a breath.

Kristie was the youngest among their group and also a lady. They might not have any qualms about her hugging them, but Theodore was the sole exception.

Argh! That silly girl! Theodore has pushed her away time and time again, so why can’t she behave herself around him?

“It’s been a while, Theodore!” Kristie said while clinging onto the man and nuzzling her face against his shirt. “I’ve missed you so much.” This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Theodore stiffened and was about to fling Kristie off when he noticed something out of the corner of his eye. In the end, he stuck out his hand and ruffled her hair instead.

“Have you been good?”

Needless to say, Kristie was shocked. After all, it was the first time Theodore hadn’t pushed her away! With that, she hugged him even tighter and chuckled. “Of course! I’ve been following Curt obediently!”

“What the f*ck?” Wyatt muttered as his jaw dropped. He instantly turned to Jeremy for an explanation, only to have the latter roll his eyes in response.

Huh? What’s that reaction supposed to mean?

Having gotten used to Kristie’s antics, Rayna barely batted an eyelid. However, she was worried about Jasmine and couldn’t help but glance at the latter.

Hmm… Jasmine has been behaving rather oddly since she got here. She’s hiding her emotions pretty well, but I still caught her worried look and the occasional tremble in her fingers.

Seemingly having noticed Rayna’s gaze, Jasmine turned and smiled at her. “Ms. Garland, is there something I can help you with?”

“No. Everything’s fine,” Rayna hastily replied before looking away.

After a while, Theodore could no longer stand how clingy Kristie was and pulled her away by the neck, leaving the latter pouting and sulking.

By then, the people who had turned up at the hospital were Curtis’ fiancée, friends, and subordinates. Everyone cared about him equally, and it was impossible to reach a consensus on who should stay behind to look after him.

Thoughtful as always, Jasmine spoke up. “I’m sure everyone has had a rough night. Why don’t you guys head home to rest? With Mr. Xavier’s men guarding Curtis, I know I won’t have to worry about anything. Once again, thank you all so much for your help.”

True to his calm and indifferent self, Theodore took the lead and strode away in silence.

“Wait for me, Theodore! I know you have long legs, but must you walk that fast?” Kristie grumbled as she tried her best to keep up. “Are you and Jeremy hungry? I’ll buy you guys supper!”

“In that case, we shall take our leave first. Goodbye, Ms. Garland and Ms. Sanders,” Jeremy said smilingly before leaving with Wyatt in tow.

Rayna, too, knew that she shouldn’t stay any longer. After all, Curtis’ fiancée was around.

“Ms. Sanders, I—”

“I’ll take you to get the wound on your shoulder cleaned up,” Jasmine interrupted as she began pulling Rayna along. “I feel bad to have troubled you. You’ve been so busy looking after Curtis the entire night that you haven’t even tended to your wounds.”

With Jasmine being so kind and considerate, Rayna couldn’t bring herself to say no. Even when Jessica messaged to ask about her location, she merely instructed the former to wait for her at the emergency department.

On the other end, Theodore and Kristie had long left the hospital while Wyatt and Jeremy slowly walked out with their arms around each other.

“Hey, Jeremy, haven’t you noticed anything odd?”

“Like what?” Jeremy muttered, eyes glued to his phone.

“Like Theodore’s behavior!” Wyatt replied, still unable to shake off what he had witnessed earlier. “Doesn’t he hate women throwing themselves at him the most? He always shoves them away, including Kristie. Why didn’t he do the same when she hugged him just now?”

“Don’t you pride yourself on being a casanova? You can get any lady you want, can’t you?” Jeremy said with a smirk. “Why? Are you having difficulty reading the room?”
