His Precious Love

Chapter 618

Chapter 618

Curtis noted Rayna's emotion. He was aware of her concerns in the past few days, though he had never put things on the table with her.

To him, all three children were his. As such, the issue of favoritism did not exist.

As for Xareni's name, it was merely a superficial term of address.

Indeed, he harbored some anger within him recently. However, it was not toward the children but his own wife.

Regretfully, Rayna simply could not perceive it. The mere thought of it gave him a pounding headache.

After the couple had brought Xareni back to their bedroom, Curtis went out of the room and ordered the housekeeper to move the crib in the guestroom over.

Rayna gently placed Xareni onto the crib. No sooner had she done so than Curtis came out of the bathroom. He went over to her and offered, “I'll look after her. Go and take a bath. I've already drawn one for you.”

“Okay.” In response, Rayna nodded. When she turned around and brushed past the man, she went on tiptoes and pecked him on the cheek. “Thank you, Darling.”

Curtis pinched her slightly rounded cheek, his lips quirking into a smile. “Go on.”

When Rayna exited the bathroom, the sight of Curtis lying on the bed with a laptop on his lap came into view. He had one hand moving across the keyboard and the other resting on the crib beside him, rocking it gently.

Seeing that she was done bathing, Curtis closed the laptop and flipped open the covers to get up.

Rayna removed the elastic band around her hair before tightening the belt at her waist. “Where are you going?” she asked while eyeing him in puzzlement.

Instead of giving her an answer, Curtis flashed her a faint smile.

She did not think much about it, walking over to the dressing table, where she sat down and took out a comb to brush her unbound hair. About three minutes later, Curtis returned to the bedroom from the living area with a pink brocade box in hand.

“This is for me?” Rayna put down the comb in her hand and lifted her eyes to stare at Curtis, stunned for a moment.

She racked her brain for a while but found nothing special about that day. He's giving me a gift out of the blue when it isn't even a special occasion?

“Yeah. Open it and have a look.” Curtis motioned for her to open the brocade box.

After taking it from him, Rayna opened it, and the four pocket watches within came to view. Each was of a different color and style. Most importantly, they were all engraved with a zodiac sign. Hers was different, while the other three pocket watches had the same signs, their designs varying.

One was also of a bigger size, whereas the other three were smaller and made of silver. She picked up the pocket watch with her zodiac sign and opened it, only to find a dancing figurine inside. On the other side of it was a miniature family portrait.

“When did you prepare these?” Imbued with joy, Rayna spoke in a soft and tender voice. “I noticed you'd been coming home late in the past few days. Don't tell me you'd been getting these together?”

Leaning down, Curtis stretched out a hand and booped her on the nose. His eyes were brimming with infinite love. “My girl is always so smart.”

Rayna reached out a hand and grasped the index finger and thumb of the man's right hand. Her voice was tinged with a hint of distress as she said the following words. “The wounds on your hand match the pin on this pocket watch.”

“I made them myself. Do you like them?” He caressed her face, his magnetic voice very much seductive.

“Yeah. The kids will love them too.” Rayna placed the brocade box on the dressing table, hooked her hands around his neck, and raised her head to kiss him.

She merely planned to give him a peck to express her gratitude to him, not expecting to spark his desire inadvertently.

Curtis unfastened the belt at her waist directly. When his hand came into contact with her slender waist, the fright almost made her shriek aloud. But in the next second, she remembered that there was still a baby in their master bedroom and swallowed her cry in the nick of time.

“Cut it out.” Her cheeks were flushed from the kiss earlier, rendering her extraordinarily stunning under the illumination of the yellow light in the bedroom. She grabbed the man's hand that was roaming around her waist, warning, “You're going to wake Xareni.”

Following her words, a deep pucker formed between Curtis' eyebrows. He shifted his gaze to the baby sleeping soundly in the crib before bringing his lip close to her ear. “It's irresponsible to start something without finishing it, Darling.”

That had Rayna's cheeks flame even hotter, but still, she did not loosen her grip on his hand. “No way. Xareni is here, and it'd be bad if she were to witness it.”

When Curtis heard that, utter regret swamped him. Had I known this would happen, I wouldn't have suggested bringing Xareni into our bedroom!

“Go and relieve yourself in the bathroom, okay? Please?” As Rayna spoke, she kissed him on the cheek again.
