Dear Sweetheart Chapter 60 A Listening Device

“Yeah, the myocardial infarction was caused by overworking,” explained Curtis with a deadpan

expression. “The company will compensate Mr. Lawson with a sum that is enough for his daughter to

finish university.”

Thinking about the contract with the loophole, Rayna was convinced that things were not as simple as

they seemed. However, she did not know much about the matter or how to tell Curtis about it.

“Edith is the acting supervisor of your department, isn’t she?” inquired Curtis calmly.

To that, Rayna nodded in response.

“Nobody informed me about it. They just assigned her the position,” scoffed Curtis, whose face turned

even grimmer. We just lost someone in the upper management, and some people are already losing

their nerves.

“Edith is indeed very capable. In fact, she’s one of the oldest employees in the translation department.”

Rayna spoke the truth. Even though Edith’s social skills were questionable, her capability was

undeniable.

“Your supervisor should’ve told you. Edith belongs to Mr. Grant, who’s already placed several of his

people in other departments, so there’s no way I will promote her,” responded Curtis solemnly.

Rayna simply listened and did not speak. Sometimes, the conflicts at the top management are worse

than the ones at the bottom. Even though the vice CEOs all work for the same company, they’ve formed

different factions. I guess that can’t be helped. Mr. Fayman is too busy expanding the business in other

parts of the world to do anything about it.

“After we’re done discussing the contract, I’ll be stationed in Chanaea. Somebody else will oversee the

Norham branch,” informed Curtis. “Your supervisor mentioned you several times when we were dining

together.”

It was not just Jonathan but Curtis too noticed that Rayna was a talent when she helped out at the

mansion. The woman was not only efficient but also dependable.

“I’m not interested in the position, Mr. Faymon,” stated Rayna in a lowered voice. She would have fought

for the position if she had the ambition. Instead, she had suspicions about Jonathan’s death.

Work was hectic in the translation department as a translator would sometimes be required to work in the

middle of the night. Still, Rayna thought something seem off when she heard that Jonathan’s myocardial

infarction was due to him staying up late.

“Your supervisor had high expectations of you, so you should consider.” Curtis decided not to keep

pushing Rayna. “We have to stay in Tyrandas for a while, so we’ll deal with these matters when we get

back.”

“Thank you, Mr. Faymon.”

Tyrandas was situated right in the middle of Epea and Aploth. Thus, it had the world’s fastest economic

development. Even though the country was full of exotic cultures, it was not as beautiful as described in

words.

Other than those in main cities like Irethiel and Illianor, the locals did not appreciate foreign visitors.

Hence, tourists dared not roam around freely in the country.

The two arrived at the Machika Park Hotel in Irethiel.

Since there were not a lot of guests at the hotel, it did not take long for the receptionist to get them

checked in. An attendant asked Curtis if the man needed him to show him around, but Curtis said no.

“I feel like I’ve seen this hotel somewhere before.” Rayna furrowed her eyebrows as they took the

elevator.

Curtis glanced at the woman. “You’ve been to Irethiel?”

“No. This hotel just feels familiar to me.” Suddenly, Rayna’s head shot up before she exclaimed, “I

remember now! One of Daniel Craig’s Bond movies was filmed here!”

“I didn’t take you for someone who likes action movies,” teased Curtis. “You and Kristie are very much

alike. She looks like someone who enjoys animated films but is actually a fan of horror movies.”

Rayna could not help but pursed her lips when the man mentioned Kristie. “Mr. Faymon, you seem close

with Ms. Winton. Are you two dating?”

“What makes you think we’re dating?”

“From her attitude.” Rayna’s lips twitched slightly when she thought about how Kristie looked at her. “No

matter what I tell her, she keeps treating me as if I’m her rival.”

In response to that, Curtis smirked. “She gets jealous easily whenever the person she likes is involved.

However, we’re not dating. I simply want to treat her like a princess.”

Rayna did not understand what that meant. Why would he treat Kristie like a princess if he didn’t have

feelings for her? The woman’s probably going to shout for joy if she heard that.

“Huh?” Curtis suddenly frowned as though he had noticed something strange about Rayna. Then, the

man got so close to Rayna that she almost backed away.

“What’s wrong, Mr. Faymon?”

After Curtis gestured to her, Rayna immediately stopped talking and watched as the man reached out for

her sleeve.

Curtis then withdrew his hand before opening it to reveal a listening device.

“Jefferson’s probably responsible for this,” stated Curtis only after destroying the device.

“He’s so immature,” remarked Rayna coldly. Even though she did not expect Jefferson to plant a listening

device on her, she guessed the man only did it because of business.

When the elevator finally reached the designated floor, Curtis handed Rayna a keycard, held firmly

between his slender but strong fingers. “Don’t worry. I’m just next door. Get some rest first, and I’ll get

you when it’s time for dinner.”

“Okay,” responded Rayna before taking the keycard.

Like the country they were in, the design of the hotel room was rather exotic. Even though Rayna wanted

to take a bath in the large bathtub, she did not do so because she had no fresh clothes.

As soon as Rayna turned on the roaming feature on her phone, countless WhatsApp messages popped

up. No one was more worried about Rayna than Jessica, who asked if the woman had been abducted by

aliens.

Also, Edith tagged Rayna on WhatsApp, trying to find out what happened to her subordinate.

Rayna dared not mention her trip overseas without Curtis’ permission, so she had no choice but to lie

about returning to her hometown for a few days for her relative’s funeral.

After washing up, Rayna took some snacks from the refrigerator. She was rendered speechless when

she checked her phone again and got hit by Edith’s mockery.

Rayna had sent Edith several text messages on her way to the airport early in the morning. She told

Edith that she had to take leave because of an urgent matter and was sure her superior had seen her

messages since the woman was chatting in a WhatsApp group. Even though Rayna responded to Edith

in the group, she still got mocked.

“This is all Roxanne’s fault. That idiot!” Rayna bit down on her apple angrily. If she weren’t so greedy, I

wouldn’t have to leave the country to help Curtis.

The woman then exited the app before calling James, who was just three floors away from her.

Since the boy’s room was below Rayna’s, she could see him lying on the balcony just by looking down.

James removed the magazine covering his face and reached out for his phone.

When he saw Rayna calling, he immediately bolted upright and cleared his throat before answering the

call.

“What’s up, Rayna?”

“What? Do I need a reason to call you?” questioned Rayna rhetorically and impatiently. “I’m on a

business trip, so I want to know if there’s anything you want.”

What a coincidence. I’m on a business trip too. Naturally, James decided to lie to Rayna. “No. Just take

care of yourself, okay? I have everything I need for school. The amount of homework I have is crazy

though.”

“I’ll see what I can get you then,” insisted Rayna. “It doesn’t seem right to go back empty-handed. Let me

know if you need money, okay? And don’t skip class just because you’re bored.”

“I’m not going to do that,” sighed James, scratching his head. Only kids do something like that.

James was still on the phone when somebody knocked on his door. “I have to go to class now, Rayna.

Talk to you again.” With that, the boy hung up on Rayna.

“Mr. Faymon,” greeted James when he saw the man at the door. “Is there anything I can help you with?”
