Dear Sweetheart Chapter 49 Thoughts Running Wild
Jessica had just reached home when Rayna arrived with some food.
Jessica used to stay at Tucker Condominium after signing a three-year lease, but she was tricked by a long-time scammer and ended up in dire straits. When Rayna saw that, she asked Jessica to move in since there was an empty room at her condominium at half the rental price.
“You’re my savior, Rayna! I can’t believe you brought me food! I did an experiment today, and it was successful. Why don’t we go out and celebrate later?” Jessica asked, pecking Rayna on the cheek twice.
“Why should we go out? We can just celebrate at home,” Rayna asked, puzzled.
“Of course, we have to. It’s been some time since I came to Norwal City, but I’ve always been buried in my design drafts every weekend. I never had the chance to explore the place,” Jessica complained.
She’s right. I’ve been resting a lot over the past two weekends, but Jessica has been working overtime since the planning department has been busy.
“All right, then. I’ll bring you out later.”
Afraid that the food might turn bad the next day, Jessica finished them off immediately. “Mm! This tastes delicious! Your mom’s cooking is superb! It’s so good I almost swallowed my tongue!”
“She used to be a chef,” Rayna replied. “She had to bring the three of us up, so sometimes I’ll cook when she was working. My brother picked up the craft when he grew up too.”
In fact, Roxanne was the only one among them who did not know how to cook.
“I didn’t know you had a brother. Is he still studying?” Jessica asked out of curiosity, holding her glasses.
“Yes. He’s at boarding school, so we don’t see him often, but it’s weird. His school doesn’t require a university entrance exam. They admit students based on internal referrals,” Rayna said with a nod.
“Oh! He must be really smart, then,” Jessica remarked, moving closer to Rayna. “By the way, I saw Kristie going out when I came home in the morning to grab something. There was a tall and hot guy beside her. Do you think she’s cheating on Mr. Faymon?”
“I don’t think she will. The man you saw is probably her bodyguard.” From what Rayna observed, Curtis was the only man Kristie cared about. She had never ever paid attention to anyone else.

Besides, Kristie would not have the guts to keep a sugar baby right under Curtis’ nose.
“He keeps a straight face and looks a little like Brad Pitt. It would be nice if he were my boyfriend,” Jessica noted wishfully, biting her fork.
Here, she sighed. “But that’s never going to happen. I’m busy with work all the time and don’t even have time for myself, what more having a boyfriend? Life is hard!”
Rayna pursed her lips, smiling. “Don’t worry. I’ll bring you to meet some hot guys later.”
“I love you, Rayna!”
Rayna turned on her laptop to sort some work stuff before heading out. There were still a few documents Curtis sent in her email, making her wonder if he even took what she said seriously when they talked the other day.
I thought we’d called it even between us. Why do I still have to go through his documents for him? The people in the secretarial department are there for a reason.
“Let’s go, Rayna!” Jessica had already showered and dressed up when she hurried Rayna up.
The latter almost burst out laughing when she saw Jessica.
Because Jessica looked too young for her age, she looked like a student even after she put on something sexy. She looked petite and slim, with her hair tied up in a bun. Anyone would agree that she was cute.
“What’s the matter? Is there something wrong with my clothes?” Jessica asked, looking at herself.
“No. You look adorable. I’m sure some places won’t even allow you in,” Rayna said, trying to hold in her laugh.
“I know I’m short, so please stop rubbing it in.”
“Fine. I’ll stop,” Rayna agreed, going into her room to change into a maxi and get her bag before heading out with Jessica.
They left between nine and ten, and it was the peak hour. The traffic was congested, with many cars flooding the street.
Worried that Jessica would be denied entry into the club, Rayna brought her to a bar instead, but Jessica refused to settle for that, so she searched for a good place for fun online and dragged Rayna into the car.
After going one round, they arrived at Heavenly Palace.
“I don’t think this is a good idea,” Rayna said, looking at the club in aversion, for it reminded her of the day she was plastered and committed the worst mistake in her life.
“This place is buzzing with people! Google says this is the most happening place in Norwal City, and there are many hotties around here. I’ve never been here before. Let’s go!” Jessica burst out in excitement.
Given how adventurous she was, Jessica eagerly tugged Rayna into unchartered territory. When they went in, the guards looked at her briefly and let them in, and they entered a dimly-lit venue where everyone was walking around looking like zombies.
When a waiter observed that Jessica was new to the place, he approached her to ask if she was interested in playing any games. Feeling uneasy, Rayna asked, “Are there any private rooms available?”
“I’m sorry, miss. All the rooms have been taken tonight. Why don’t you sit at the table instead?” the waiter suggested, pointing at a less-packed table facing the stage.
Rayna agreed and walked over with Jessica. Then, she ordered some alcohol.
“This place is really something else. There are so many cool guys around here. Don’t you think so, Rayna?” Jessica asked with her eyes glimmering as she looked at the man performing on the stage.
“Yeah,” Rayna answered dismissively. She glanced at the man and quickly retracted her gaze. She had no idea why he reminded her of Curtis when he had a towel wrapped around him.
