His Precious Love

Chapter 343 Stop Being So Secretive
On Christmas Eve at Jetroina, Rayna and Curtis came across an accessories store while walking around the street. At that time, a scarf wrapped around the mannequin’s neck in the display window caught her eye, so she dragged Curtis into the store and bought it for him as a Christmas present.
And now she spotted the same grey scarf from that day in Jefferson’s room. Is it a coincidence?
At that moment, Jefferson came into the room as well.
Embarrassment flashed in his eyes when he saw the scarf in Rayna’s hand. “I’ve been searching high and low for a long time but to no avail. I didn’t expect you to find it right away.” His tone sounded unnatural.
“Yeah. It’s hanging in the coat.” In fact, anyone could sense his awkwardness as he was terrible at concealing it. Rayna felt upset and forced a smile on her face. “You’re so careless.”
As Rayna spoke, she stepped forward to get the scarf and wrapped it around Jefferson’s neck when he lowered his body.
His dark blue low-neck sweater could be seen as he had not zipped his down jacket. Moreover, his collarbones and the teardrop pendant were slightly visible when he lowered his body.
Rayna lowered her head and bit down hard on her lip, holding back her emotions. After the breakup, I’d already returned or dumped all the gifts he gave me when we were dating. However, he still wore and treasured the only present I gave him, which was the teardrop pendant until now. He’s such an idi*t! How pathetic is this? He is very possessive but has never forced me to do anything. Rather than telling me he wanted it, he secretly bought the same one by himself.
While burying her head in his chest, Rayna gloomily mumbled, “Jefferson, I hate you so much.” I hate you for your sacrifice and for keeping everything to yourself. I even despise you for still liking me.
The duo had been staying together in a suite for so long, but they lived in their respective rooms. Their only intimate interaction was Rayna snuggling in his embrace at that moment.
Since they were so close to each other, Jefferson could smell a faint, fragrant scent from her body, which was particularly alluring.
Jefferson reached out to keep her soft, tender body locked in his arms. As he took in the pleasant scent of her hair, he uttered, “Don’t hate me. You said you owe me favors and want to make up for all of them.”

No one knew what changes would occur as the future was far away. Despite that, it was the happiest moment of his life because the woman he loved was by his side, giving him all her attention and trying her best to save him.
Even if he couldn’t survive, he would still be satisfied because he got the things he had yearned for. Now, he could leave with no regrets.
After burrowing herself in his embrace for a while, Rayna felt that she was being melodramatic, so she quickly withdrew from his arms and helped him zip up his down jacket, bundling him up tightly.
Rayna then put on a smile. “Let me take you out for a walk tonight. You must tell me if you take a liking to something, and I’ll buy it for you, okay?” Just stop being so secretive. I’ll feel bad.
Jefferson nodded in response.
Perhaps many people were overseas for vacation recently, so they saw a lot of guests, including men and women of all ages and even couples cuddling against each other when they came out of the hotel.
Initially, Rayna didn’t care about it. Yet, when she unintentionally caught a glimpse of Jefferson’s gaze on a couple passing by before retracting his gaze and glancing at himself and her, she understood something.
Leaning over, she interlocked her fingers with his.
Even though they just came out from their room, which was pretty warm, and there was central heating in the lobby, Jefferson’s hand was slightly cold.
Rayna suppressed her distress before muttering, “It’s almost minus one degree outside, and it’s freezing. I can’t stand the freeze, so you must take care of me. Don’t let me catch a cold.”
Jefferson was stunned by her words, but he instantly held her hand tightly, wrapping her hand in his palm. “Okay.”
The duo celebrating the festive season without any friends or family in Frosa might appear dreary. In Chanaea, on the other hand, everyone celebrated the festival with excitement, and fireworks boomed in the sky from time to time.
The atmosphere was the liveliest at Linda’s new place.
Except for Rayna, James and Roxanne went back home. They even brought their partners along.
“Mommy, let me help you.” Although Kristie did not know how to cook, she insisted on entering the kitchen to help Linda wash the vegetables as she wanted to please the latter. She would do even the slightest thing to help just to leave a good impression on Linda.
Linda replied, “It’s rather smoky in the kitchen. You should just stay in the living room.”
“No worries, Mom. It’s a way to light up the festive mood!” Kristie obediently responded. She immediately took a plate and handed it over when she noticed Linda was about to finish cooking a dish.
“Kristie, by the way…” While peeling prawns, Roxanne turned around to look at Kristie. “You’re celebrating Christmas here, then how about Curtis?”
“I think Curt will return to the Faymon residence to accompany Old Mr. Faymon to have a meal, just like last year,” Kristie answered.
Since Kristie worked under Curtis during her teenage year, she had been celebrating New Year at the Faymon residence. If she happened to film in Norham and couldn’t return, she would spend the festive season with Theodore and the others.
Roxanne merely hummed in response.
She inched closer to Kristie and whispered, “I somehow feel something’s wrong. How could Curtis not worry about letting Rayna go on an overseas business trip alone?”
Instantly, Kristie nodded before she said softly, “I have the same thought as you! You have no idea how much Curt adores Rayna. There’s no way he’ll allow her to go abroad by herself, let alone during Christmas. Also, I realize Curt had an indifferent look when I went to Faymon Group to see him in the past few days. He even ignored me. I wanted to ask those staff where Rayna had gone for a business trip, but they kept their lips sealed.”
