Dear Sweetheart Chapter 55 Such A Cheapskate
After Curtis left with Kristie, Rayna placed a hand on her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness they’re gone. It would’ve been so awkward. The food is amazing though, but it’s no surprise considering this hotel only hires the most renowned chefs. I should call Jessica and tell her that I’ll be bringing her lunch when Mr. Tylinski gets the bill.
Soon, a waiter came over with some food that had been packed up and handed them to her. “Here are the seafood spaghetti and desserts you ordered to be taken out, Miss.”
“Thank you.”
With a smile, Rayna turned around and was about to leave with the food when two women walked over from the opposite direction. One of them who had a long, tight-fitting dress on and was pushing a baby stroller turned out to be Astrid.
Rayna pretended not to see her, but as soon as she headed over, Astrid glanced up and noticed her. “Oh? You’re here too, Rayna?”
Rayna could only stop in her tracks and nod. “Julian and I are already divorced, so maybe you should just call me Ms. Garland.”
She had stopped contacting Astrid ever since she paid the latter a hundred thousand to help her film the incident where Rolanda had cheated in the card game. She had also helped Astrid move her brother to Norwal City.
Yet, here they were bumping into each other again.
Realization dawned on Astrid. “I’m so sorry, Ms. Garland. I forgot about the divorce. Anyway, would you mind staying for a chat? I have something to talk to you about.”
Despite sounding polite, she wasn’t giving Rayna a chance to say no and had already told her friend to give them some privacy.
She then pointed to where Rayna had been seated earlier. “How about we sit here, Ms. Garland?”
“Oh, I’m definitely thankful for that,” Astrid replied with a chuckle. “But this time, I’d like to make a trade with you. Would you perhaps be interested?”
A waiter approached them with two glasses and poured them some tea.
Rayna took a seat facing Astrid.
“I saw what happened at the baby welcoming party,” the latter began while pushing the stroller gently in an attempt to let the baby sleep. “I saw Uncle Curtis come out of the girls’ restroom, and then you followed him out soon after.”
Rayna felt her stomach drop. I thought no one was there. She actually saw us?
However, she quickly composed herself. “Maybe Mr. Faymon went into the girls’ restroom by accident.”
Astrid shot her a glance and smiled faintly. “I’d believe that, but you know what’s weird? Would he have gone into the wrong restroom and come out with a lipstick stain on his shirt?”
Rayna thought back to the incident. My lips must’ve accidentally brushed against his shirt while we were hiding inside that tiny storeroom.
“That doesn’t necessarily mean anything either,” Rayna stated calmly. “It’s not like I’m capable of winning someone like Mr. Faymon over.”
“You have a point, Ms. Garland,” Astrid responded, smiling with a hint of disbelief and arrogance in her eyes as though Rayna was nowhere near how distinguished she was. “If you could even get Uncle Curtis’ attention, you wouldn’t have married Julian in the first place. Julian is nothing compared to him, after all.”
“If you have nothing else to say, I’m leaving.” Rayna wasn’t going to waste her time with this woman.
Who cares if she saw what happened that day? She’d only get on Mr. Faymon’s bad side if she decides to spill. She’s not that dumb.
“You’re a translator, aren’t you, Ms. Garland? I’d like your help with something,” Astrid continued. “My husband cinched a huge deal and will be shipping goods to Tyrandas, but as you know, the people there only speak Tyrandasian. My husband can’t speak it, so he’s looking for someone who does to go with him.”
While speaking, the woman reached into her tote bag and took out a heavy, black sack with both hands. “Here’s one hundred thousand in cash. You’ll get another two hundred thousand when you come back.”
“I’d get three hundred grand just from making a trip over there? Your husband sure has a lot to spare, huh?” Rayna scanned the sack being pushed toward her but chose not to touch it.
Three hundred thousand for a translation job was good money, but she wasn’t interested.
That was because she had taken note of the main keyword: Tyrandas. Curtis was also going to take her there for some business deals. Something’s definitely up.
“Is it not enough, Ms. Garland?” Seeing Rayna refuse to accept the cash, Astrid let out a pretentious sigh. “My husband won’t make a lot this time around. Three hundred thousand is quite a huge deal already.”
Rayna’s lips curled.
Look at that. Now she’s making it seem as if I’m trying to take advantage.
