Chapter 4
See You Never “There’s no need to trouble yourself. It’s on the table.” Assuming that she was looking for
contraceptives, Curtis lifted his chin at the bedside table, where a basket filled with them could be seen.
Rayna was surprised. Since when have hotels become so attentive? “O-Okay. I’ll go take a shower,
then.” Rayna pushed Curtis aside, her heart pounding furiously. She could sense what Curtis’ intention
was. D*mn it. I was clearly the one leading him on. So how did I end up becoming some sort of sacrificial

Her eyes were tinged with anxiety when she snuck a suspicious glance at him. Curtis took in Rayna’s
every expression and had clearly seen through her thoughts. Plenty of women are interested in taking
her place, and she’s probably the first one who seems intent on fleeing. This is interesting… The night
quickly went by, and dawn approached just as swiftly. When Rayna awoke and turned around, she saw
Curtis sleeping by her side. Despite the coldness of his features, she found him to be less fearsome in

Just before she did, she took out all the cash from her bag and left them on the table. Ten minutes after

Then he threw the note away and kept the cash. At that moment, Gabriel Tylinski, his personal assistant,
called to inform him that the flight tickets had been reserved. Subsequently, he added unnecessarily, “Mr.
Faymon, if you’re busy today, I can reschedule the flight for tomorrow.” “It’s fine. I’m heading over right
now.” After a brief hesitation, Curtis instructed Gabriel, “By the way, come to the hotel and investigate the
woman from last night.” “Yes, Mr. Faymon.”
