Chapter 577

Rayna blushed a little when she recalled Curtis' intimate action.

Since she couldn't reach the ice cream, she held Curtis' arm and uttered coyly, “Just one bite, okay? I promise I just want a taste of it. I'm being honest!”

Curtis kept mum.

“Mr. Faymon, please have mercy. Please...”

Curtis was at a loss for words. However, his heart softened when he saw how pitiful she looked as she stared at the ice cream in his hand. “Just a small bite, okay?” he asked.

Rayna nodded vigorously. “Just a small bite! You have my word!”

Curtis lowered his arm and held the ice cream next to her mouth.

Seeing that, Rayna quickly held Curtis' wrist tightly and opened her mouth as wide as she could. However, he gently held the back of her neck and reminded her, “Mrs. Faymon, please remember what you said. Otherwise, I'll stop showing you mercy.”

In the end, Rayna had no choice but to only take a small bite of the ice cream.

“Good girl.” Curtis was pleased. After that, he finished the rest of the ice cream before her eyes.

Infuriated, Rayna rolled her eyes at him and strode off.

Curtis chased after her to walk by her side so that she wouldn't trip and fall. “Slow down. You're going to make yourself feel uncomfortable by walking so quickly.”

Rayna's expression turned grim, and she ignored him. This man is so annoying! Not only did he stop me from eating ice cream, but he also finished it before my eyes! That's so inhumane!

Noticing the look on her face, Curtis knew she was angry. In a helpless tone, he said, “Ice cream is too cold for you. Besides, you haven't eaten anything this morning. It's not good to eat ice cream on an empty stomach. I'll buy another one for you tomorrow.”

“That's not necessary!” Rayna let out a cold snort.

“Even if I'm not around, you're still not allowed to eat ice cream.” Curtis knew what Rayna had on her mind. “I'll get Carl to watch you. He wouldn't dare to collude with you.”

“You!” Rayna glared at him and gritted her teeth. “Why must you be so cruel? I'm already six months pregnant, yet I can't even eat ice cream. Are they really so fragile?”

“I didn't say you weren't allowed to have any. It's just that you shouldn't eat it on an empty stomach. Don't misunderstand me,” Curtis explained patiently.

“You just don't want to let me eat ice cream!” Rayna grumbled.

Rayna shoved him aside and distanced herself from him. With a cold expression, she grumbled, “I'm going to name our daughter 'Ice Cream!' That way, she's going to remind me to eat ice cream every day. Let's see how you are going to stop me then!”

“Are you sure we'll have a girl?” Curtis caught up to her and asked, “What if they all end up being boys?”

“What are you on about, Curtis?” Rayna got annoyed and punched him. “I've already gone for the checkup, and I'm going to have two girls! How would they suddenly change into boys?”

Curtis let out a soft chuckle. “You reminded me I'll have to take you to a checkup next week.”

“I don't need you to bring me! I'll go on my own!”

“All right. Sure. You'll go on your own.” Curtis didn't want to argue with her because he didn't want her mood to get affected too much. Hence, he changed the topic by asking, “I bought watermelon! Would you like to eat it directly or drink its juice?”

Rayna turned away to ignore him.

Seeing that, Curtis didn't get angry. Instead, he approached her to wrap his arm around her waist so that she could walk more comfortably. Just like that, the two of them went into the condominium together.

Somewhere far away, Jefferson was watching them enter the condominium quietly. At that moment, his expression was frighteningly calm.

Next to him, Emerald uttered hesitatingly, “Mr. Hamilton, I'm sure Ms. Garland still has feelings for you. It's just that she's pregnant with Mr. Faymon's kids, so she can't cut ties with him.”

Before that, Ringo wasn't in Norwal City, so Emerald accompanied Jefferson to the hospital to fetch Rayna. However, they were told that Rayna had been discharged long ago.

Mr. Hamilton had just gone to the supermarket to buy groceries. Since he was going to cook for Ms. Garland, I thought I would get to mooch a free meal too! Who would've known that we would see Ms. Garland and Mr. Faymon together?

Jefferson only responded a long while later when he flashed a faint smile and said, “I know.”

He then gave the groceries to Emerald. “Since Mr. Faymon is keeping Belle company, I guess I'll stay out of their way. Bring these cooking ingredients home, okay? It would be a waste to throw them away.”

Emerald took the ingredients from him and asked cautiously, “Shouldn't we send these to Ms. Garland?”

“Mr. Faymon is going to make lunch for her. Go home, okay? I have property here in this residential area.” Jefferson shook his head.

Hearing that, Emerald had no choice but to leave with the groceries.

Jefferson remained standing there as he stared at the condominium with his blue eyes. At the same time, he was clenching his fists. How could I not mind? I'm willing to wait a lifetime for her affection. However, it hurts to see her getting close to another man.

Upon arriving home, Curtis brought the ingredients to the kitchen while Rayna went to rest on the couch.

As she drank her watermelon juice, she read the news.
