Chapter 115 Is Uncle Curtis Getting Married

She began to feel an intense heat in her body as the man’s warmth lingered on her lips. When she was

about to lose all self-control, she quickly returned to her condominium and took a shower to tame that

steamy sensation.

On Monday morning, Rayna drove Jessica to the office. The latter would normally spend forty minutes on

her daily commute to work, but she managed to cut her travel time by half today. Having a car is so

convenient!

After entering the office, Rayna noticed some wedding favors on her desk. In fact, everyone had

received them at their respective workstations.

She grinned and asked her colleague, “What are the wedding favors about? Is someone getting

hitched?”

“It’s Ms. Faymon from the planning department,” the colleague replied. “I heard she’s pregnant and will

be marrying someone from a prominent family in Mapleton next month. The wedding favors are from

her.”

“Really?” Rayna seemed baffled. Hadn’t she vowed not to marry anyone since the son of a government

official from Frosa hurt her feelings? Yet, all of a sudden, she’s ready to tie the knot? Getting pregnant at

her age can be risky as she is a few years older than Curtis. Did something happen to the Faymon

family?

Nevertheless, Rayna did not let those questions get to her as she had tons of work to do.

She texted Curtis about it but did not get an immediate response.

She did not receive a reply from him in the afternoon—not even the next day. In fact, he did not even

come to the office for the next few days. Brooklyn, too, disappeared after giving out the wedding favors.

The office remained peaceful as nothing major happened.

A few days later, Kristie came to Faymon Group in a huff and confronted Rayna in her department.

“I always thought you’re good at seducing men.” Feeling disappointed, Kristie tossed a newspaper on

her desk and glowered at Rayna. “How could you allow someone else to take advantage of you? What

has become of you?”

Rayna was confused to hear that. When she lowered her head to read the newspaper, a photo of an

intimate young couple caught her attention.

The newspaper’s headline, printed in a large font, read: Mr. Curtis Faymon will be tying the knot with Ms.

Jasmine Sanders from Lorentz Group!

Rayna instantly felt her blood run cold. U-Uncle Curtis is getting married?

“You’re so useless, Rayna!” Kristie poked the newspaper with her index finger as if she was poking

Rayna. “Since when did that woman hook up with Curt? I wasn’t aware of this because I was busy

filming, but you? How could you not know about this?”

“Hey! Say something! Answer me! Are you deaf? Someone stole your man. Are you not mad?” she

continued to bellow.

Rayna gradually came to her senses amidst Kristie’s angry outburst. She pressed her lips together and

said calmly, “Kristie, I’m afraid you’ve misunderstood my relationship with Mr. Faymon. There’s nothing

between us.”

“That’s bull! Curt wouldn’t have treated you so well if there was nothing between the two of you. When

you were in Tyrandas—” Kristie stopped in her tracks as she recalled Curtis’ warning. Instead of

completing her sentence, she cast Rayna a disdainful look.

Rayna asked, “Tyrandas?”

Come to think of it, she remembered Kristie did say something that made no sense to Curtis when she

had regained consciousness. Why don’t I have any clue about what happened at that time?

“Nothing. Can you please step up your game?” Kristie pouted, expressing her dismay. “I don’t like you,

but at least you come from a decent family.”

She continued, “Jasmine’s mother is an embarrassment. Do you know what she did for a living?

Moreover, Jasmine is an illegitimate child of the family. The media will make Curt a laughing stock if he

marries that woman!”

“Ms. Sanders’ family background has nothing to do with me,” Rayna said. She was not in the mood to

continue this conversation with Kristie. “Go ahead and do what you want, but leave me alone.”

Kristie stomped in frustration and growled, “I wouldn’t have come to you if I had a choice! Curt has been

ignoring me, and he refused to take my calls. You should be glad that I’m on your side!”

She continued, “Can we call a truce and get rid of that woman first? You don’t want Curt to marry her, do

you?”

“First of all, I’ve never thought of you as my rival, Ms. Winton, so please stop thinking of me as your

enemy,” Rayna said. “Secondly, Mr. Faymon can marry anyone he likes. There’s nothing we outsiders

can do about it.”

At that point, she just wanted Kristie to leave her alone. “I still have a lot of work to do, Ms. Winton. I’d

appreciate it if you could leave me alone.”

“You—”

“Jordan, please see Ms. Winton out.”

Kristie did not want to end the discussion, but the grim-faced Rayna immediately ordered her

subordinate to escort her out. After giving Rayna a murderous glare, Kristie stormed out of the office in

her heels.

Silence befell her office after Kristie had left, but Rayna was not in the mood to go through the

documents on her desk anymore.

Staring at the newspaper, she felt utterly out of sorts. I celebrated his birthday just a few days ago, and

today, he announced he’s getting married. How did everything happen in the blink of an eye?

Since Curtis’ wedding announcement made headlines, it instantly became the talk of the town. Rayna

noticed that everyone in Faymon Group was also busy discussing the big news about the CEO.

Even when she went up to the secretarial department, Naomi, too, expressed her disbelief. “Mr. Faymon

told me he’d be busy these two days, but it never crossed my mind that he’d be busy with his

engagement! This is so unexpected!”

Rayna responded with a faint smile. “Maybe they have known each other for a long time.”

“I’ve worked with Mr. Faymon for years, but I’ve never met Ms. Sanders,” Naomi said softly. “I heard Old

Mr. Faymon was admitted to the hospital and is now hanging by a thread. All the Faymons are planning

their next course of action.”

She continued, “I supposed that’s why Mr. Faymon decided to marry in haste. He might be running

Faymon Group, but Old Mr. Faymon is still the company’s director. If anything goes south, all the

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

Faymons, including the daughters-in-law and children, will definitely want a piece of the pie. Mr. Faymon

doesn’t have the final say in the company.”

“Old Mr. Faymon is in the hospital?” Rayna’s expression darkened. “He had a vacation overseas, hadn’t

he? I thought he was in the pink of health.”

Naomi replied, “Yes, he did. I heard Mr. Faymon instruct someone to bring him back because he had a

cardiac episode. But this time, I have no clue if Old Mr. Faymon was hospitalized because of the same

health issue.”

Rayna began to ponder. No wonder none of the Faymons came to the office these few days. Ms.

Sanders might be an illegitimate child, but since she has Lorentz Group and the Sanders family on her

side, I guess marrying her will be a wise move for Uncle Curtis.

After glancing at Rayna for a moment, Naomi said, “Ms. Garland, I’d always thought you and Mr. Faymon

were an item, but I guess fate decided to play a cruel trick on you two.”

Rayna’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing that, but she immediately pulled herself together and

responded with a grin, “He was looking out for me because he knew I’d made enemies the moment I was

appointed the company’s regulator. Anyway, carry on with your work. I’m going back to my office now.”

Rayna left the secretarial department as soon as possible because she did not want Naomi to ask more

questions.

Bewildered by Rayna’s reaction, Naomi could only watch her leave in haste.

After a long, hectic day, Rayna leaned against the chair, feeling utterly exhausted.

Yet, she could not help but recall the news about Curtis’ wedding. While she was scrolling her phone, the

same article popped up again on the screen. Out of frustration, she tossed her belongings into her bag

and left the office.

Jessica could tell that Rayna was having a bad day. After glancing at her for a few seconds, she decided

to sit quietly in the car.

Their car could hardly move as they were stuck in a jam. It was as if the traffic of the entire city was

snarled up. After arriving at the underground car park of the shopping mall, Rayna got down from the car

and slammed the door.
