Chapter 737 A Taste Of Your Own Medicine

However, Rayna did not answer Andrew's question.

When Curtis realized that Rayna did not seem interested in interacting with Andrew, he lowered his head and quietly said, “Hold on for a little longer.”

Rayna raised her head to look at him, and she spotted the trace of joy in his eyes. Thus, she gave him a small smile in resignation.

Andrew slowly walked over to Rayna and Curtis, his cane tapping on the ground. “Mr. Faymon, Mrs. Faymon, I've heard from my subordinates that you came to Jayfort. I've been wanting to invite you here, but I haven't had the time.”

Rayna was not interested in Andrew, so naturally, she did not believe in his words either.

Gripping the hand Rayna rested on his wrist, Curtis chuckled and said, “If so, today's the day to meet then.”

Andrew smiled. His gaze drifted from Curtis to Rayna, and a gloomy look danced across his eyes.

Curtis noticed it, and alarm bells began ringing in his head. Subconsciously, he pulled Rayna closer toward him.

At that, Andrew looked away to scan the room instead. “Why isn't Cassidy here?”

Even though he had looked back to Rayna and Curtis when he asked the question, the question was

directed to Fernando.

Fernando replied, “Yuna has gone to the Gilroy residence. I'm guessing that Cassidy's departure has been delayed by Yuna.”

Andrew's somewhat friendly look instantly darkened. “There are so many of you around, but you still can't keep a child in check,” he berated.

“It was an oversight on my part,” Fernando said, lowering his head. “I'll go and pick Yuna up now.”

“What's the point of going there now? Since Cassidy's there, call her and ask her to send her over instead,” Andrew grimly said to Fernando.

“Understood.” Fernando turned and left the living room.

Rayna watched them speak, and she continued looking at Fernando until he was out of the living room and out of her line of sight.

“Mrs. Faymon, do you know Fernando?” Andrew was watching her as well. As he spoke, he walked over to the couch to take a seat.

“I've seen him once or twice at Cassidy's place. Cassidy said he's her fiancé.” Rayna turned to look at Andrew, and she saw the icy look that flashed past his eyes when she mentioned that Fernando was Cassidy's fiancé.

Rayna then turned back to Curtis, who gave her a signal. As it turned out, he had noticed the slight change in Andrew's demeanor as well.

“Fiancé...” Andrew mulled over the word. He was smiling, but his smile did not reach his eyes. Upon seeing that Rayna and Curtis were still standing, he said, “Come, take a seat. Make yourself home.”

It was only then Curtis led Rayna to sit on the couch opposite Andrew's.

“By the way, you seem close with Cassidy, Mrs. Faymon. Have you known her for long?” Andrew said as he picked up a cup from the coffee table. The butler at the side immediately filled his cup.

“Yes. We got to know each other as children, but we later ceased contact with each other,” Rayna truthfully replied.

“I see, I see.” Andrew leaned back on the couch and crossed his legs as he studied Rayna. “I hear that Mr. Faymon has brought Mrs. Faymon here to seek treatment from Cassidy. Is that right?”

“It is,” Rayna calmly answered.

Curtis tightened his grip on her hand when he saw how tranquil she seemed to be. He could feel the dampness of her palm.

Rayna turned to look at J, Vance, and J's team before enunciating, “Mr. Zeller, you've invited our friends over as well. Is it also for a talk?”

“This is a misunderstanding, actually. My men messed up. Mr. Faymon, Mrs. Faymon, you were the ones I intended to invite, but my subordinates ended up getting the wrong people,” Andrew explained

as he took a sip of his tea.

Hearing that, Rayna and Curtis shared a look. Both had come to a conclusion, but neither was going to voice it out loud.

“Mr. Zeller, since you've said it's a misunderstanding, why don't we leave it as this today and meet on another day?” Rayna suggested.

Andrew's expression turned grim immediately. As he cast his mirthless eyes on her, he said, “Mrs. Faymon, you're quite straightforward.”

“Mhm. I've always been like this, and that's why I'm a match for my husband,” Rayna said. “Frankly, I think you wanted to chat with my husband, but alas, he has promised to shop with me today. Therefore, I'm afraid your arrangement today will not work. My few friends here have been brought here by mistake, so since we've cleared things up, we should let them head back first.”

Rayna then tugged Curtis' sleeve and gazed at him sweetly. “Why don't you meet Mr. Zeller another day?”

Curtis raised a brow as a look of exasperation appeared on his face. “Mr. Zeller spent much effort inviting us here. It isn't quite polite for us to leave just like that, right?”

“But you promised me! It took so long for my eyes to recover and for me to see. You said you were going to walk around Jayfort with me. Moreover, this place is humid, and it rains all the time. How many days have we been here? It's so rare to see the sun here, so let's just go strolling first,” Rayna pestered as she shook Curtis's wrist.

Curtis ruffled her hair before casting Andrew a stumped look. “I'm really sorry, Mr. Zeller. It looks like I won't be able to discuss anything with you today.”

Andrew narrowed his eyes at them. “Do you two have children yet?”

“We do,” Curtis said after glancing at Rayna. “Triplets.”

A look of joy finally appeared in Andrew's dark eyes. “Good. The more, the merrier for children.”

Rayna took the opportunity to pull Curtis upright before smiling at Andrew. “So... Mr. Zeller, shall we meet another day?”

Andrew bobbed his head at them. “Very well. We'll do this another day, then.” NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

With that, he turned to the butler, who promptly stepped forward and said, “This way, please, Mr. Faymon, Mrs. Faymon.”

The butler led them, including J, Vance, and the others, to the door.

Just as Rayna and Curtis reached the doorway, they saw Cassidy walking toward them.

“Cassidy?” When Rayna and Curtis turned around, they saw Andrew's faint smile.

“Cassidy, why are you here?” Rayna whispered to Cassidy as she grabbed her arm.

“Would they have let you go if I didn't come?” Cassidy muttered as she gazed at them all. “It'll be a taste of their own medicine. Don't worry. I'll be fine. You should leave first.”

After Cassidy pulled away from Rayna, she greeted Curtis and went straight into the living room.

Rayna tried to follow her in, but Curtis stopped her. “We should go back first. Cassidy has Fernando, and he won't let anything happen to her.”

As he spoke, he gave Fernando a long look.

Rayna turned in response, but she could not see any expressions on Fernando's calm face.

“He doesn't look like he can't even protect himself; how will he protect her?” Rayna did not trust Fernando's capability. After all, she had just witnessed how obedient he was to Andrew.
