Dear Sweetheart Chapter 277 You Are So Cruel
It took Rayna a long while to recompose herself.
Examining the photos again, she noticed that they looked familiar.
Opening her album, she compared it to the picture of Curtis she had accidentally taken a long time ago in the hotel. Other than his head being cut off, the rest of the picture was a match.
This picture has been in my phone album. How did Mrs. Xavier get it?
Rayna brooded over the matter. She was filled with frustration at the thought of Theodore’s father’s rank and his mother’s behavior.
This woman is really wicked!
She took a deep breath and gave Jasmine a call. “Did you see the news in the entertainment section? The reporters made things up. It isn’t me and Theodore in that photo.”
“I know.” Jasmine chuckled over the line. “I can recognize the body of my man with a single glance.”
Rayna cleared her throat before changing the topic. “Mrs. Xavier is the one behind this. When I was eating with Carl at the cocktail reception last night, she approached me to force me to marry Theodore. Both of us got into an argument thereafter.”
Rayna went on to tell Jasmine about the contract.
Jasmine seemed to be even more elated after listening to Rayna’s words. “Thanks for this. That’s how she has always been. She’s willing to do anything just to get rid of me.”
“You sound… happy?” Rayna was baffled. “How can you be happy over something like that?”
Jasmine smiled. “Shouldn’t I be happy to know that my man cares about me? By the way, are you free on Friday? I would like to treat you to a meal to thank you.”
After checking the calendar, Rayna realized she couldn’t spare the time. “I’ve taken leave and will be going on a vacation.”
“With Mr. Faymon?”
“No. My friend won three tickets to an all-expense-paid trip to Jetroina via a lucky draw,” Rayna said. “Since I’m due for a break, I decided to go with her.”

“I see… It’s been a long time since I had a break too. Can I come along with you?”
“Sure. I’ll let her know.”
“It’s fine. Just give me her number. I want to talk to her about something else.”
“All right.”
Before they ended the call, the sound of shuffling documents could be heard from Jasmine’s end. Daily new chapters upload Only On Alaniniz(dot)com She said, “I heard that your mother enjoys making snacks and wine. Sanders Group currently owns a few stores in Obelisk Mall. One of their tenancy agreements has ended. I’ll get my assistant to send the contract over to Faymon Group. It will be my way of thanking you.”
“You don’t have to do that,” Rayna declined cordially. “Treating me to a meal is enough.”
“I’m sure you know how reluctant I am to rent the place on the cheap. I might as well let you have it to repay my debt of gratitude. If you think it’s too much, just send me the delicious snacks your mother makes next time.”
“Sure. Thank you!” Rayna felt it rude to refuse.
“You’re welcome.”
After giving Jasmine Jessica’s number, Rayna watched as her colleague enter with documents in her hands.
“Ms. Garland, Mr. Faymon wants you to sign this.”
“Why does he insist on having me deal with this when he can do so himself?” Rayna grumbled as she quickly signed her name on the last page. As Curtis had gone through it, it wasn’t necessary for her to take another look.
No sooner had the colleague closed the door behind her with the signed document than a group of people surrounded her. “We heard the secretarial department mention that this contains the management rights of Obelisk Mall. Is it true? Show us!”
“In your dreams!” The colleague shooed the group away with the document. “Mr. Faymon said to keep this confidential, yet you guys had to gossip about it. Do you want to get yourselves fired?”
“We were just discussing it among ourselves. It’s not like we’ll reveal it to any outsiders.”
Within Faymon Group, it was effortless to trace any leaks to their source. As Rayna was also their department manager, the last thing they wanted was to be fired by her.
The colleague relented with a nod. “It’s indeed the management rights of Obelisk Mall.”
“Wow!”
Everyone gasped in shock and turned to look at Rayna, who was sitting behind the glass door. Filled with admiration, one of them commented, “Obelisk Mall rakes in a profit of a few hundred million annually. Did Mr. Faymon really give it to Ms. Garland just like that?”
Another speculated, “You guys saw the news, right? The Xavier family is also considered one of Norwal City’s most influential families. Do you think Mr. Faymon presented the gift to Ms. Garland because he was jealous after reading it?”
“Mr. Faymon is really generous to give away a mall just like that. I’m really impressed!”
“In that case, who’s Ms. Garland going to choose?”
“I’m dying to know too.”
All of a sudden, a mischievous laugh rang out. “I think Ms. Garland should accept more presents from them. That way, she’ll soon be rich enough to be her own boss. Wouldn’t that be great?”
Buried in her work, Rayna was oblivious to the fact that Curtis had given her another present.
In the afternoon, Jessica arrived at Rayna’s office with two boxes of food.
They were from Good Times Restaurant, and everyone in Rayna’s department received a lunch box each. Throwing the food a glance, Rayna asked in surprise, “What’s the occasion? Why are you treating us to lunch all of a sudden?”
Jessica replied with a giggle, “I struck it rich!”
“Did you win a bet with Wyatt?”
“It’s meaningless to win his money. They’re mine anyway.” Puckering her lips, Jessica opened Rayna’s lunch box for her and said mysteriously, “I got it from Ms. Sanders.”
