His Precious Love novel Chapter 107

Chapter 107 She Will Join Our Family

“Thank you for the concern, Mr. Faymon, but I’m capable of handling my matters.” Rayna got up from the chair and placed a bill underneath the coffee cup. “This latte is on me.”

With that, she left swiftly.

Julian watched her leave, not getting up from his chair even though he wanted to run after her.

The truth was, he was not a heartless person. He just got bored when nothing happened between him and Rayna after being together for so long. However, he came to his senses as soon as he cheated and regretted his actions.

The man who went looking for Julian at the hospital and urged him to sign the divorce papers once said, “You’re an idiot for not appreciating a smart and capable woman like her.”

Julian finally understood the man’s words.

I’m an idiot.

After stepping out of the cafe, Rayna called for a cab and returned to Norwal City.

Her encounter with Julian and his words of concern left her feeling so frustrated that she went to the mall instead of returning to the office.

When she arrived at COCO to get a cup of milkshake, she heard someone calling out her name, which made her turn around, only to realize it was the old man she had met at the Armani store.

The man was dressed in a casual outfit, looking energetic.

Rayna was surprised, but she quickly put on a smile and asked, “Is that you, Mister? What a coincidence! Are you here for a cup of milkshake, too?”

“Yes. The one you recommended last time was delicious,” said Alfred with a grin. In fact, he had been visiting the store every few days to see if he could bump into Rayna there.

All that waiting had finally paid off.

“Yes, it is, but it has too much sugar. I think you should stop buying it. I have an idea. Please wait for me here.” With that, Rayna walked off.

Meanwhile, Alfred remained at his spot, having no intention of leaving.

Not long after, his butler returned from purchasing the things Alfred needed. “Let’s go, Old Mr. Faymon. I’ve gotten all the things.”

However, Alfred waved his hand dismissively. “You can go first. I’ll hang out here a little longer and go home on my own later.”

It was a hot and sunny day. The butler feared Curtis would give the butlers a terrible punishment if Alfred had a heatstroke outside. “No, no. I should stay with you. Are you waiting for someone or—”

“You’re really annoying. Why do you talk so much? Can’t I have some time alone? Just wait for me in the car!” Alfred glared at the butler, looking extremely displeased.

The butler was rendered speechless.

Seeing Rayna approaching with a bag in her hand, Alfred instructed the butler sternly, “Wait for me in the car. I’ll go over when I’m ready. Go quickly!”

When the butler realized Alfred was mad, the former scurried away with the bags of goods.

As soon as the butler was gone, Rayna arrived before Alfred, who asked, “What did you get?”

“There’s a café on the fifth floor, so I bought some coffee beans.” As she was speaking, she retrieved a thermos from the bag. The moment she opened the cover, the aroma of coffee permeated the air. “This is freshly brewed coffee from the store.”

Alfred was touched.

This young girl is so likable. We barely know each other and have only met twice. Yet, she’s telling me having a high sugar intake is bad for someone at my age. She even bought me coffee. What a thoughtful child.

Alfred could not help but sigh. “You’re so kind and thoughtful, unlike that son of mine, who only cares about his work. What’s he going to do with all that money when I’m dead? Build me a golden pyramid?”

Rayna chuckled at his words. “He probably just wants to let you live a better life. Besides, you look as fit as a fiddle. I’m sure you’ll live for another forty years, at least.”

Alfred laughed heartily. He was beginning to like her even more.

Rayna rejected, “No way. You’ve already eaten three portions. It’ll be harmful to your body if you eat too much of it.”

Hearing that, Alfred pouted and grumbled, “You youngsters are always like this—always stopping me from eating this and that. I’m already so old, yet I don’t get to enjoy my food to the fullest.”

“Why don’t you have some carrot? It’s nutritious.”

After eating some vegetables, Alfred asked with a grin, “Young lady, do you have a boyfriend?”

“No, but I’ve only just gotten a divorce.”

The news surprised Alfred. “You’re divorced? Who is this blind idiot? How could he not want a great person like you? It’s a good thing you’re divorced, though. You can consider my son. He’s not bad. Besides, he’s tall and strong.”

While saying that, he fumbled around his pocket for his phone, wanting to show Rayna some pictures of Curtis.

Rayna chuckled.

Elderly people are all the same. They’re always worried about their children’s marriage.

Rayna could not bear to refuse Alfred when she saw how enthusiastic he looked. Thus, she said, “I’m a little busy these days. Why don’t we text through WhatsApp? We can talk about this when I have more time.”

“Sounds good.”

Alfred, too, realized he was being too hasty. After all, he had only met Rayna twice. He was lucky that she did not think of him as someone suspicious after everything he had said. Finally, they saved each other’s contacts.

Once he had gotten her contact, he saved her number as “daughter-in-law.”

Alfred was rather confident in Curtis’ looks and capabilities. I’m sure this young lady will join our family as long as Curtis puts in a little effort.

Just as Alfred was thinking about that, Curtis called.
