Rayna was speechless, and just as she was racking her brain to come up with something to curse at him, her body was lifted up into the air.

The moment she realized Curtis had carried her again, her expression darkened. “Curtis, stop carrying me again and again! I can walk on my own!”

“The floor is cold, so I’ll carry you down and get the housekeeper to bring house slippers for you,” he nonchalantly said.

Then, with his knee against the wall, he easily opened the door and brought Rayna out.

“I don’t need you to carry me! Let go of me! Curtis Faymon, don’t be shameless! I don’t need you doing anything for me!”

No matter what curses she spewed, the man remained unperturbed. Livid, Rayna bit his shoulder.

Yet, instead of hearing a cry of pain from Curtis, she heard someone trying to hold back their laughter.

At that, Rayna lifted her head and found out that they were already downstairs. Alfred was standing a distance away, watching her every move. He was holding back his laughter as he looked at them with loving eyes.

A wave of awkwardness crashed into Rayna, and she pinched Curtis hard. “You’re shameless!”

“I did remind you. You just didn’t hear me.”

“Remind me? When did you even do that?”

The two of them were so close to each other, so there was no way she would not have heard him.

He didn’t say anything at all!

“Belle, how can you always ask Mr. Faymon to carry you?” came Linda’s voice. When she turned around, she saw that her mother was there too.

Rayna froze. “Mom, why are you here?”

“Xandra invited me here for a meal,” Linda answered. “Hurry up and come down. Everyone’s watching!”
