Chapter 180 Bringing His Boyfriend To Meet Me

“Oh, that’s great… N-No, wait!” Rayna came to her senses and was shocked by Jessica’s words. “How long has it been, and both of you are already together? Didn’t you say you despised him for being a terrible guy?”

“I didn’t say he was terrible. I only said he seemed like a guy who would mess around with girls,” Jessica replied. “Besides, we’re just dating right now. If we’re not compatible with each other, we’ll just break up!”

It’s amazing how optimistic she is!

Rayna became anxious. “Aren’t you going to consider my brother? He’s young, handsome, and has the potential for growth too.”

“Well, I’m just not meant to be with him.”

After chatting for a while, Rayna hung up the call and grumbled about James to herself. Why in the world did he stand her up twice? Now Jessica has already been taken! Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Just when she was just about to take a shower, someone knocked on her door. She could only turn around to open it.

“What’s the matter, Mr. Faymon?”

“Nothing in particular. I just wanted to give you something,” Curtis said as he passed her a tiny box. “You can wear these earplugs when you sleep at night. The mansion next door is under renovation.”

“Okay.” Rayna took the box of earplugs from him.

While taking a shower, she recalled that the mansion next door seemed to be quite far away from them. It won’t be noisy for us, right? Besides, who would renovate their house at night? Are they out of their minds?

Even though she was complaining, Rayna still decided to wear the earplugs to bed, concerned that the noise might disturb her sleep.

Rayna slept very comfortably that night due to the excellent noise-canceling function of the earplugs. As usual, she went downstairs to water the expensive flowers in the backyard after washing up.

As soon as she slid open the glass doors, Rayna was stunned by the sight in front of her.

The backyard, which had been filled with expensive roses, now boasted a large rectangular swimming pool surrounded by Epean-style tiles, which gave it an extremely classy and elegant look.

“What the…” Rayna thought her eyes were deceiving her. She rubbed her eyes, only to find the swimming pool still in front of her. “Where did this pool come from? It’s too magical!”

Curtis came over in his wheelchair and said, “Why are you spacing out so early in the morning?”

Rayna turned around to look at him as she pointed toward the pool. “Mr. Faymon, where are your millions?”

Curtis raised his eyebrows and replied nonchalantly, “You mean those flowers? It’s getting hot out here. I was worried they’d wither quickly, so I had Wyatt relocate them and build a pool instead.”

“Have I not been caring for them every day?” Rayna rolled her eyes.

Just because she knew they were expensive flowers, Rayna would take care of the flowers herself every day. Yet, the man had decided to remove those roses on a whim.

No wonder he told me to wear earplugs to sleep! He was planning to build the pool anyway. It’s amazing how they managed to build it overnight! They’re really fast!

Rayna glanced at the pool again before asking Curtis in an excited manner, “Can I take a dip in the pool later?”

“No,” Curtis said flatly.

“You can’t swim anyway, so why did you build it? Just to look at it?”

Curtis nodded.

Rayna was so infuriated that she refused to speak to him anymore.

How petty!

Having tuned out Curtis’ refusal, Rayna finished her breakfast and took a rest. Noticing that the weather was becoming warmer, she then went back to her bedroom and changed into her swimsuit before plunging into the pool with glee.

The swimming pool took up the entire backyard, and Rayna flitted her legs gracefully in the water, swimming back and forth happily.

It was far more enjoyable than swimming in a community pool.

After swimming for a while, Rayna made a fruit salad and a jug of fruit punch before heading back to the pool with a laptop in her hands. She soaked in the water while eating dessert and reading her emails. It was a blissful moment for her.

Not long after, Curtis came over in his wheelchair.

“Mr. Faymon!” Rayna greeted him with a smile before shoving a piece of mango into her mouth. “It’s such a great idea from you to change the back garden into a swimming pool! It feels so nice.”

Curtis lowered his head to look at her. “I remember saying no to your request, Ms. Garland.”

“Hey, we’re family, aren’t we?” Rayna said shamelessly. “A pool is meant for swimming anyway. Isn’t it a waste to just leave it like that?”

“The only way you make your point is by talking a lot.”

“I brought over some Red Hibernia. How about I make you a cup?” As Rayna climbed out of the pool, her wet white swimsuit clung to her body, highlighting her beautiful figure.

Curtis felt his abdomen tightening all of a sudden.

Upon closer observation, Rayna seemed to have lost quite some weight. Although her waist had become slimmer, she retained her usual curvaceous figure, her legs slender and fair.

He only had a glance before Rayna draped a towel over her body and entered barefoot into the house.

Curtis believed his decision to have Wyatt and his men build a swimming pool overnight was definitely right when he thought about Rayna’s alluring figure attracting many perverts in the community pool.

He should be the only one who got to enjoy such a spectacular view.

Rayna then carried a small, round table with some coffee-making equipment to the garden and began to make coffee skillfully without skipping any steps. Soon, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee filled the atmosphere.

“Have a taste.” Rayna passed the cup of coffee to him. “This is the authentic Red Hibernia!”

Curtis glanced at her as he took a sip of coffee from the cup. “Nicely brewed,” he complimented.

“Of course! I paid to learn from a master barista!” Rayna replied smugly. “To express my gratitude, Mr. Faymon, I am gifting you with this pack of Red Hibernia. I’ll go take another dip in the pool, okay?”

Curtis merely hummed in acknowledgement.

Leaning back in his wheelchair, he slowly sipped his coffee as he watched Rayna swim in the pool. With the glistening sunlight enveloping her figure, she looked like a mermaid.

Curtis felt comfortable and relaxed just watching her like that, and he found the time spent pleasant and blissful.

Meanwhile, Rayna was unaware of his blazing gaze toward her and believed it was hot because of the scorching sun. She found a shady spot to rest, then took her phone to reply to some messages when she suddenly received a call.

Rayna took the call. “Hey, James.”

“Are you free later, Rayna?”

“Yes, I am,” Rayna replied. “Does this have anything to do with Mom moving?”

“No.” James sounded quite embarrassed to speak. “I’d like to invite you for a meal and introduce you to someone.”

Rayna’s imagination went wild when she heard her brother’s awkward tone of voice. She felt slightly nervous.

Oh, no!

Rayna wiped her face, knowing she would have to face the inevitable. She believed she could handle it. “Sure. Why don’t we have lunch together? You can choose the restaurant you like.”

“Okay. I’ll send you the address in a bit.”

After they were done chatting, Rayna hurriedly climbed out of the pool and asked Curtis anxiously, “What do I do? My brother’s bringing his boyfriend to meet me. What kind of gift should I prepare for him?”

Curtis cleared his throat. “You haven’t even seen that person, and you already assume it’s going to be his boyfriend?”

“I’m eighty percent sure about it!” Rayna replied. “He sounded way too unusual. He should be happy about having a girlfriend. I’m going upstairs to get changed. I’ll have to buy a present later!”

Curtis could not help but chuckle.

He was really impressed with Rayna. She has such a wild imagination!

Rayna spent a long time picking out an outfit. After deliberating for over half an hour, she finally came downstairs and asked for Curtis’ opinion about her dress.

“Looks good.” Curtis pondered for a bit and added, “I’ll go with you.”

“That would be great!” Rayna was beyond touched. She was worried about being awkward by herself at lunch, yet she was too embarrassed to tell Curtis. “Then I won’t be nervous anymore.”

I’m just worried that you’ll pass out from shock when you see that person, Curtis mused.

Rayna had wanted to get a gift for James’ partner, but Curtis told her it wasn’t necessary, and it might even make them seem distant instead. His words made sense to her, so they went to the restaurant directly without buying a present.

When Rayna wheeled Curtis into the restaurant, trying to look for James’ table, someone approached them.

“Curt, you’re here too?”

Only then did Rayna realize the woman in front of her was Kristie.

What a ridiculous coincidence!

Kristie was usually dressed in flashy and extravagant outfits, but she was dressed as a pure and innocent young girl that day, wearing a linen dress and a beret. She swept a glance at Rayna and greeted politely, “Rayna.”
