Dear Sweetheart novel

Chapter 582

“A place I want to go to…” Rayna stared at him in confusion when she registered his question. “Nardor?”

“Mm.” Jefferson smiled and nodded. After knocking the egg against the table, he slowly peeled the shell. “I said I was going to buy an island for you to enjoy yourself there.”

Rayna blinked.

It was then she realized what was amiss.

“So we’re the only ones on the island? Did you do something to the car last night?” Rayna rubbed her temples as she tried her best to recall what had happened the night before. “I remember feeling sleepy after smelling the faint scent of violets.”

Jefferson did not answer her as he continued peeling the hard-boiled eggs.

Noticing that, Rayna found her heart sinking. Still, she clung to the last bit of hope in her. “Were you… lying to me about Jessie too?”

“Eat first.” Jefferson put the peeled egg onto her plate. “We’ll talk once you’re done eating.”

“Tell me!”

At her insistence, Jefferson pushed his glasses higher and whispered, “Sorry, Belle.”

“You’re too much! How could you lie to me about Jessie?” Rayna could not maintain her cool at all. “So you were lying about telling Curtis, weren’t you? You just wanted to avoid him and take me here, right?”

“Yes,” he answered reluctantly.

“Why—” Rayna wanted to lose her temper, but she could not because she owed the man. “I told you I’ll leave with you after giving birth to the children. Jefferson, you didn’t need to do this.”

Jefferson curled his lips. When he spoke again, his voice was tinged with loneliness. “Belle, haven’t you realized? You’ve been biased toward Curtis. When you give birth to the babies, you’ll still stay by his side. Why would you still think about me by then?”

Rayna froze. She could not find the words to refute that.
