Dear Sweetheart novel

Propping a hand against his forehead, Jefferson gave a bark of self-deprecating laughter. “A single mistake led to countless more mistakes down the road. Well, it turned out that I lost to you in this aspect.”

If I could turn back time to return to when we got acquainted and cast my concerns aside, would we have ended up together instead?

At that precise moment, a knock sounded on the private room door.

A server stepped in and handed the small box in his hand to Curtis. “Here’s the item you requested, Mr. Faymon.”

“Thank you.” Curtis slid the box over to Jefferson. “In it is the plant capable of regenerating cells I obtained from that village in Tyrandas when I went there with Rayna back then. Its research has succeeded.”

Jefferson gaped at him, questioning incredulously, “Didn’t Jeremy’s lab explode and all research specimens get destroyed? Why do you still have it?”

“A total of six stalks of Ixora were preserved, and five were kept at the lab. Jeremy wanted to try out his new equipment, so he took a stalk away,” Curtis explained.

Subsequently, Jefferson opened the box.

A capsule encased with green liquid came into sight, so vivid that it gave off a sense of vibrant life.

“The research was incredibly successful, but this drug has side effects in and of itself. It can only extend your lifespan by thirty to thirty-five years. I think you need it now even if the efficacy is limited.”

At Curtis’ words, Jefferson’s lips turned up. “Thirty years is already a miracle. The lifespan of the average person is merely sixty to seventy years anyway. Considering my condition, living up to fifty years old is God’s grace.”

He then asked, “You could’ve exchanged this drug for the sum of an elderly rich man’s assets and expanded Faymon Group. Why are you giving such a priceless treasure to me?”

Curtis chuckled, his voice solemn and tinged with a hint of gratitude. “As you said, it’s a priceless treasure. Money can’t compare to it. This is my gift of thanks to you for taking such good care of Rayna.”

“I didn’t do it for your sake but because I love her!” Jefferson riposted.

Curtis merely grunted in acknowledgment. “I know, but that doesn’t change the fact that I’d like to thank you. I know she has been searching everywhere for someone to save you. She doesn’t want you to die so early. As such, neither do I.”
