Chapter 607

Linda patted her back and smiled gently. “Go on. Return to the Faymon residence earlier in the afternoon.”

With that, Rayna grabbed her bag and left in a hurry.

Meanwhile, ever since Gabriel left, Tilly had taken over all his responsibilities, and that included managing Curtis' itinerary.

The companies that were working with Faymon Group found out about Curtis' birth date months ago, and they all sent gifts to Faymon Group on Curtis' birthday.

That was why Faymon Group had been receiving an endless stream of gifts since early in the morning.

Tilly was tasked with going through the gifts and registering which company the gifts were from. She was so busy that she had to get another secretary to handle the issues of the meeting that day.

While Tilly was still busying away, two workers approached her with an enormous gift.

“Ms. Turner, this is a gift from Glory Corporation. We were told to send it straight to the CEO's office,” said one of the workers.

Glory Corporation had undergone a major reshuffling in the upper management a few months earlier. Hence, Tilly knew Rayna was currently the new director and CEO.

However, Tilly was afraid that someone had tampered with the gift while it was in the middle of delivery, so she had to check and make sure there weren't any problems.

The moment she opened one corner of the box, she immediately jumped in alarm because she spotted a human inside the box.

Rayna, who was inside the box, saw Tilly too and gestured for the latter to keep quiet.

When the workers heard Tilly's scream, one of them quickly asked, “What's the matter, Ms. Turner? What's inside the box?”

“Oh? It's nothing.” Tilly closed the box up, tied the ribbon, and said with a calm expression, “I've already checked this box. It's safe. Take my card and send it straight to the CEO's office.”

“Sure.”

The workers took Tilly's elevator card and carried the box into the elevator.

By the time Curtis finished his meeting and returned to the CEO's office, he saw the enormous box next to the couch at a glance. The box had ribbons on it, waiting for someone to unwrap it.


Seeing that, Curtis instantly furrowed his brows. I don't need a fridge in here. Why did the secretarial department send this here?

With that in mind, he went to his desk and called the secretarial department through the internal landline.

Coincidentally, Tilly was in the secretarial department. When she picked up the phone, she asked, “Mr. Faymon, how may I help you?”

“Why did you guys send a fridge to my office?”

On the other end of the phone, Tilly held back her laughter and tried her best to maintain a serious tone when she answered, “That's not a fridge, Mr. Faymon. That's a gift from Glory Corporation. Perhaps you should open it.”

After ending the call, Curtis went around the couch and walked toward the big gift box to remove the ribbons.

The moment he opened the box, a gorgeous figure jumped out of it.

“Surprise!” Rayna stood on tiptoes to kiss Curtis before exclaiming with a smile, “Happy birthday, Darling!”

Curtis, who was on guard a few seconds earlier, relaxed visibly when he saw her emerging from the box. However, he wasn't at all fazed by her kiss. Humming in response, he said, “Got it.”

Is he still angry? He has already been giving me the cold shoulder for three days. Rayna extended her hand and asked coquettishly, “Darling, are you not going to carry me out?”

“Don't you have legs?”

“I'm sorry, Darling. I was wrong.” Rayna threw herself into Curtis' embrace to seduce him and gain his forgiveness. “I shouldn't have said such words when I came out of the hotel that day. I regret what I said, and I'll change for the better. Don't stay mad at me anymore, okay?”

Seeing that Curtis was still wearing a cold expression, Rayna raised her head and kissed his neck. “Don't be angry anymore, Darling. Your beautiful wife was just delivered to your doorstep. Are you really not going to give her a hug?”

Curtis continued remaining silent.

“I love you, Darling. You're even more important to me than the kids!” Rayna kissed him once every time she finished her sentence.

“You're the most handsome man in the whole world, Darling! I love you so very much!”

Annoyed by her kisses, he carried her out of the box with a straight face.

She then wrapped her arms around him and wouldn't let go. As she clung to him like a sloth, Curtis didn't know what to do with her.

“The box is airtight. What will happen if I didn't open the box after coming in?” Curtis sat on the couch and lifted his huge palm, spanking her thigh. “Are you that eager to find me a new wife?”

Although Rayna was fooling around moments prior, she immediately blushed when Curtis spanked her. After all, they were in his office. “That's why I made a few tiny holes in the box so I could breathe better.”

Rayna then wrapped her arms around his neck and smiled. “Are you busy today, Darling?”

In response, Curtis arched a brow and looked at her.

“No matter how busy you are, I'm afraid you would have to deal with work tomorrow!” Rayna dragged him off the couch and added, “It's your birthday today! I have other gifts prepared for you!”

When she was dragging him out of the office, she lowered her head to glance at her watch.

She panicked when she heard someone greet Curtis and was about to let go of his hand. Alas, she ended up being pulled into his embrace instead.

“Hi, Mrs. Faymon,” greeted the employee while walking past them.

Right then, Rayna remembered that Curtis was still angry at her. If I were to shake his hand off, all my efforts to appease him earlier would go down the drain. Since we're in Faymon Group, I doubt the employees here would dare to gossip about us. I should just let him be.

The couple reached the underground parking lot and got into the car. Just as Rayna was about to fasten her seatbelt, she noticed Curtis sitting in the passenger seat with no intention of fastening his seatbelt on his own. With a resigned smile on her face, she leaned toward him to help him with it.

Planting a kiss on his cheek, she said, “It's your birthday today, so I'll serve you just this once.”
