Dear Sweetheart Chapter 79 Initiative
Rayna answered the phone call after she closed the balcony’s glass door. “What’s up with you again, Roxanne?”
“Ah, I’m just missing you, Rayna.” Roxanne chirped, “I called you immediately right after I was done filming. I’ll meet you tonight to have dinner together, Rayna.”
“I’m not in the country at the moment.”
“What do you mean?”
Thinking it would be fine to tell her younger sister, Rayna briefly told Roxanne that she was accompanying Curtis on an overseas business trip.
Then, Roxanne hung up the phone and video-called Rayna.
The latter answered the call. The next second, Roxanne’s face, which was covered with a facial mask, appeared on the screen. “Why are you suddenly turning this into a video call?”
“Rayna, don’t move. Let me take a look at you.” Roxanne leaned closer to the phone screen as she spoke and sized up her sister. “I heard the weather at Tyrandas is scorching now, so the people there are easily down with fever.”
“I’ve been staying inside the hotel these few days, so I’m fine.”
“Rayna, move your camera around a little.”
Rayna was at a loss for words.
Yielding to Roxanne’s insistence, Rayna tilted her phone up and down. “What are you doing, Roxanne? You don’t even care about your mother, so why are you paying so much attention to me now?”
“I’ve always cared a lot about you and Mom, okay?” Roxanne muttered. She let out a sigh of relief after failing to notice any hickeys on Rayna.
Roxanne ended the video call after chatting with Rayna for a short while, prompting the latter to feel baffled.
She couldn’t shake off the feeling that Roxanne was acting slightly unusual.
At that moment, Jessica sent her a document through WhatsApp. The size of the file was quite large.

After Rayna downloaded and opened the document, she realized it was the map she had requested Jessica to draw.
The map was more detailed than she had imagined. All the buildings and road signs were labeled with their Anglandurn names, and even the alleys were identified. The design was comparable even to a satellite image.
After translating the addresses, she merely gave the plan a try by asking Jessica to assist her in drawing a map. Unexpectedly, the latter was more capable than she had anticipated. She’s indeed a specially-recruited employee of Faymon Group.
Rayna sent Jessica a text: Amazing! You can come up with such a comprehensive drawing after I provide you with just an address!
Jessica replied: I am an expert in natural sciences subjects. Drawing a map isn’t challenging for me.
Rayna: Thank you. I’ll treat you to a home-cooked meal when I’m back.
Jessica: You’re welcome. So, tell me. How are you spending your time with Mr. Faymon? Is there any spark between you two yet?
Rayna: You’re overthinking. Remember to keep this map a secret.
Jessica: Don’t worry. I used my laptop to sketch the map. Besides, I deleted my files after sending you a copy. You should seize this opportunity to win Mr. Faymon’s affection. Go for it!
Rayna was rendered speechless.
I can’t fathom what’s going on in Jessica’s mind. She behaved like a charlatan previously, telling me about all his negative traits and how he’s a jinx to his wife. Yet now she’s urging me to be with him. I simply can’t keep up with her volatility.
Then, holding her phone, Rayna returned to the living room. She saw Curtis, head lowered, sitting in front of his laptop, seemingly occupied with an unknown task. She strode over and said, “Mr. Faymon, I have something to talk to you about.”
“Good timing. I have something to tell you too.” He shifted the laptop screen in her direction. “Take a look at this.”
A map was displayed on the screen.
“What a coincidence. I also asked someone to help me draw a map.” Rayna glanced at the screen and saw that it was a map of the address. Unable to stop herself from laughing, she handed her phone to him.
Comparing the maps on the phone and laptop, he realized the map on her phone was more precise and informative.
Curtis arched his brows in amusement. Even Gabriel, who has served me for so long, rarely shares my thoughts, yet this woman has tacitly done the same thing as me.
“Who drew this map for you? Is that person trustable?”
“Yes, she’s trustable. She’s also a member of Faymon Group.” Rayna relaxed after listening to his simple question, as he didn’t reprimand her. “She’s Faymon Group’s specially-recruited employee, Jessica.”
Curtis could vaguely recall Jessica’s existence as a relatively short woman who had assisted Rayna in the fight involving the mistresses. “She’s a talent. Faymon Group is blessed to be able to recruit her.”
Rayna seized that opportunity and chimed in, “Mr. Faymon, there’s no need to thank her. The more practical way to express your gratitude will be to give her a pay raise when you’re back.”
“Okay.”
Fearing that Rayna’s phone might become faulty, Curtis sent a copy of the map to his own. Then, the two began discussing the selection of routes.
A few minutes into the conversation, she felt something was off. “Mr. Faymon, I don’t think I’m suitable to participate in this discussion.”
“You’re being too courteous, Ms. Garland. Without you, this collaboration wouldn’t be a success. Besides, you’re intelligent, so I believe you’ll be able to provide me with constructive input,” he said.
At that instant, Rayna felt her effort acknowledged and her character trusted.
Since their arrival at Tyrandas, Curtis hadn’t held back any information from her. He had even allowed her to take part in the one-billion-collaboration, placing an unwavering and complete faith in her.
Suddenly, he stretched out his hand to point at her cheek. “Ms. Garland, there’s something on your face.”
“Huh? Where?” She immediately touched her face but failed to sense anything. “What is it?”
Taking in her dazed expression and failure to remove the debris, he chuckled and reached out his hand.
