Dear Sweetheart Chapter 246 Going To Kill Him âYou were about to inject me with this, werenât you?â Jefferson asked, his gaze dark.
Fear crept into Naomiâs heart, and her arms started to shake, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not climb back upright.
In the next instance, the needle was inserted into her arm.
Once the syringeâs contents were in Naomiâs bloodstream, Jefferson grabbed her chin and forced her to look at his gentle smile.
âTell Arnaud Iâm going to kill him.â
Naomiâs eyes widened, and she panted.
Then, Jefferson threw her off the bed, snatched the chair, and smashed the computer. Without even changing his clothes, he left.
When his subordinate in the corridor saw him, he hurried over and greeted, âMr. Hamilton.â
âScram!â Jefferson roared before shoving his subordinate away. A metallic tang rushed up his throat, and he vomited out a mouthful of blood. Weakly, he supported himself against the wall.
âArnaud! Montail!â Jefferson closed his eyes. Recalling what he saw in the surveillance camera, he grounded out, âIâm going to kill you! Iâm going to kill you!â
When Curtis came back to the waking land, he woke up with the headache of the year. Then, he noticed something heavy on his chest, and that sobered him up immediately.
It was then he recalled driving to the club and seeing Stephanie entering the room.
Once his eyes were used to the dim lights in the room, he realized there was a woman sprawled on his chest. That certain scent was still strong in the air, and he knew what that meant.
D*mn it.
A homicidal thought formed in Curtisâ mind. Just as he was about to pull the woman away from him, he spotted the pearl earring on the womanâs earlobe and froze.
He had seen that earring many, many times.
While he was still in a daze, the woman sprawled on him woke up. She looked at him groggily and asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
Curtis let out a sigh of relief upon registering her face.
Thank goodness itâs her.
âIâm so tired,â Rayna mumbled hoarsely, the exhaustion audible in her voice.
She lowered her head to plant a kiss on his chest. Thinking that the drug was still not out of his system, she muttered, âLet me sleep for a little longer, okay? My waist hurts...â
The spot she kissed heated up, and that heat wormed its way into his heart. He could not help but hug her and kiss her hair.
âWhy is your heart beating quicker?â Rayna questioned, sober from her worry. âDo you feel unwell?â
Itâs already been one night, but heâs still feeling like this?
At that moment, Rayna felt the urge to skin Stephanie alive.
After rubbing her cheek on the manâs chest, she sighed and said, âAll right. Iâll help you out, but I canât stand, so Iâll help you in another way, okay?â
Rayna kissed his lips before letting her kisses trail downward.
When Curtis saw the hickey on her bare shoulder, he quickly pulled her up and said, âYou donât need to do that.â
âAre you uncomfortable?â Rayna asked as she lifted her head. It was then she realized that the man had clear, bright eyes. She stiffened. Then, her face heated up and turned red.
Flustered, she hung her head and cried out, âThis is so embarrassing!â
What was I just doing?
When she heard the manâs quiet chuckle, she hammered his chest and huffed, half-embarrassed and half-mad. âWhy are you still laughing? You gave me such a scare last night! You were nearly raped, you know?â
âAll right, I wonât laugh anymore.â Curtis embraced her. âThank you for protecting my reputation, Ms. Garland.â
Rayna felt strange to hear that.
Then, she stiffened when she heard that she was apparently the one who invited him to the club. âBut I didnât send you any message. The company had a gathering last night, and I was having a meal with my coworkers.â
âDid anyone use your phone?â
Rayna shook her head. âI had it with me the entire time, but my account was logged into last afternoon.â
âIt looks like this was premeditated.â Curtis sneered. âHow dare they make a move on me on my territory. They must think that itâs their time to die!â
âI thought Stephanie was interested in you,â Rayna said, realizing that she had underestimated the complexity of the matter.
âSomeone must have instructed Stephanie to do this.â
Curtis took her hand to his lips to kiss it. âThatâs why you were in a rush to come last night?â
âStop kissing me.â Even Raynaâs fingers were starting to heat up. She could not even sit upright even if she wanted to, so she resorted to merely glaring at him. âLook what youâve done! You were so aggressive last night.â
I shouldnât have come here to suffer for the whole night!
âDoes it hurt really badly? Let me take a look.â
âCurtis Faymon!â Rayna bellowed before wrapping the blanket around her tightly. At the same time, she kicked him down from the couch. She was angry, but she was also scared that he would do something to her.
In a resigned voice, Curtis said, âI just wanted to...â
âShut up!â
After getting showered with the random things Rayna threw at him, Curtis zipped his mouth and put on his pants. Glancing at her torn dress, he quietly made a call and walked out of the room.
When Jeremy came with a set of new clothes, he had a barely-concealed smile on his face.
Curtis was close to giving him a beating at that.
Rayna then took the clothes to get changed in the restroom. After coming back out, she saw Curtis walking over to the wall lamp and taking something out of it.
âWas it switched on the entire night?â Raynaâs face turned as white as a sheet when she figured out what the item was. âDid I show up in a video on those dirty websites last night?â
Again, she felt the urge to murder Stephanie.
Curtisâ expression was dark, too. As he took apart the tiny camera, he consoled, âNo. Iâll deal with this myself.â
âI canât believe you can still say that!â Rayna cried out. âThis wonât hurt you at all! Argh! Curtis, why are you so stupid to have come to this club?â
âI thought you were the one who sent me the message.â
âDo I have that much free time to treat you to meals every day?â Rayna was on the verge of tears. âWhat do I do now? I donât want to show up on those websites! This is so embarrassing! Iâve never been as embarrassed as now in my whole life! Curtis, you stupid idiot! I shouldnât have come. I should have just let her rape you!â
Curtis tolerated her cursing and quietly coaxed her, âAll right, all right, this is all my fault, okay? Why are you crying again? Does it not hurt anymore?â
Rayna wiped her face and gritted out, âIâm so freaking unlucky!â
Curtis bent over. âCome, Iâll carry you.â
âStop laughing!â Rayna rolled her eyes at him. âSettle the score with that woman!â
âIâm not laughing.â
âYour eyes are crinkling!â
At that, Curtis was bereft of words.
He then carried Rayna out of the room. To his surprise, Wyatt and the others were standing in the corridor.
The moment Rayna saw them, she wished she could dig her grave to bury herself in it right there and then.
âCurtis.â Wyatt walked over before glancing at Rayna. âWell, the soundproofing function in the room is exceptional, so we heard nothing at all. I swear!â
Rayna was desperate to throw herself out of the window.
F*ck, youâre straight up telling me that you heard everything!
Nevertheless, Curtis quietly noted down that moment to take revenge on it later before asking Wyatt, âDid you ask her yet?â
âNot yet. We were waiting for the two of you.â
âLet me.â Rayna gestured for Curtis to put her down. When she saw that the tied-up Stephanie was still unconscious, she walked over to the other woman and gave her a harsh slap.
Stephanie screamed and finally opened her eyes.
Grabbing her hair, Rayna hissed, âWho told you to do this?â
Stephanie flinched when she saw the men standing around her with hostile looks in their eyes.
However, her silence only made her receive another slap from Rayna.
âNo one! Youâre just annoying to me!â Stephanie roared. âI canât stand watching you b*tch hooking up with everyone, so I wanted you to feel what heartache is like!â
Studying Rayna, Stephanie then gloated, âAlthough Iâve failed, my efforts arenât wasted since thousands of men saw your naked body!â
