As soon as Rayna heard Curtis’ reply, disappointment showed on her face. She went silent, staring down at the orange in her hand.

After all, she knew all too well that the man was merely consoling her.

Upon seeing her all downcast through the rearview mirror, Curtis frowned. Unwilling to see her crestfallen, he was just about to speak when his phone beside the gear selector rang.

He was driving and had no way of picking up the phone. Therefore, he connected the call to the car’s Bluetooth system before answering it.

“What is it?”

On the other end of the phone, Gabriel reported, “Mr. Faymon, Gianna has been found and escorted back to Norwal City, so I instantly called you. Do you want to meet her, Mr. Faymon?”

The sound from the Bluetooth system was loud, so Rayna heard it as well.

She was stupefied at first. When she registered the meaning of those words, she lunged forward and raised her voice. “Where is she?”

Swiftly reducing the speed of the car, Curtis glanced back over his shoulder and shot her an admonishing look. Nonetheless, he couldn’t bring himself to remonstrate her. “He can hear you just fine. Why did you launch yourself forward? Sit properly.”

Intimidated by the warning look in his eyes, Rayna had no choice but to move back begrudgingly. Craning her neck, she continued asking, “Speak up, Mr. Tylinski. Where is she? We’ll go over right away.”

“Oh, Mr. Faymon, I didn’t know you’re currently with Mrs. Faymon.” Gabriel gathered his wits and divulged at once, “We’re at Mr. Lopez’s clubhouse, Mrs. Faymon.”

Rayna’s heart skipped a beat. Gritting her teeth, she barked, “Why are you calling me Mrs. Faymon? You’ve lost your mind, Mr. Tylinski—”

Before she could finish her tirade, Curtis had already hung up the phone.

Rayna said nothing further.

When the car arrived at the clubhouse, she eagerly swung open the door and alighted no sooner had the vehicle come to a stop.
