Dear Sweetheart Chapter 472
Chapter 472
“She will, but there’s nothing she can do since the surveince camera was broken.”
After giving it some thought, the man continued, “I noticed her eyeing your tummy a few times. She
probably thinks it’s normal for you to bump into others with that huge tummy of yours.”
The pregnant woman leaned against her seat and rubbed her tummy. “That’s good to know. I can’t
believe we got paid one million for a small favor like this! We really lucked out this time!”
“I think there’s more to this than meets the eye,” the man said with a worried frown.
“Stop worrying about it, Darling! We did exactly what he told us to! Besides, he did say it’s okay if we
fail. I’m just d we still get to keep the one million! Let’s use this money to go on vacation in Moranta!
I want to deliver my baby there!”
Unlike her concerned husband, the pregnant woman was nning her dream vacation.
She even dreamt of getting permanent residency in Moranta and using the remainder of the money to
start a small business.
“Hey, Darling! Could you apply for our visas tomorrow—”
She was talking so fast that she ended up choking on the orange.
“What’s the matter? Are you okay?”
Noticing that her face was turning purple, the man slowed the car down and looked for a spot to pull
over.
While he was busy ncing left and right, he didn’t notice the traffic light in front of him turning red.
A huge truck then came speeding from the left side and crashed right into their car.
Bang!
Although Carl kept telling Rayna that he was old enough and didn’t require babysitting, she spent the
rest of the evening with him anyway.
She was originally nning on heading back after he fell asleep, but got a little sleepy at around eleven
due to her pregnancy.
Thinking she would have a hard time hailing a cab thatte at night, Rayna went to sleep in the guest
room instead.
Lucky was sleeping on the carpet beside her bed when she woke up the next morning.
“Morning!” she said while giving Lucky a pat on the head.
Rayna then entered the bathroom andpleted her morning routine in a hurry. It wasn’t until she
came out to get changed that she realized the scarf was missing.
She turned around and nced at Lucky as she asked, “Did you steal my scarf?”
Lucky simply wagged its tail and stared at her with an innocent look in its eyes.
Rayna tried threatening it with a re, but to no avail.
As she still needed to make breakfast, she had no choice but to leave it at that.
After going downstairs, she saw Carl working in the kitchen. The house was filled with the nutty and
sweet smell of oatmeal.
“You know how to cook oatmeal?” Rayna eximed in surprise.
“Ah, Ms. Rayna, you’re awake!” Carl turned around and shot her a nce while standing on a stool to
reach the countertop. “Yes, it’s the only dish I know.”
“Not bad. At least you won’t go hungry if you’re home alone! I’ll wait for you to make breakfast, then,”
Rayna said with a smile.
“Okay! It’ll be ready soon!”
About ten minutester, Carl served two steaming hot bowls of oatmeal.
The little boy shook his legs as he sat down in front of Rayna.
After taking a few sips of oatmeal, he looked up at her and asked, “Has my mom contacted you yet,
Ms. Rayna?”
Rayna paused slightly when she heard that, but she was quick to regain herposure. “No, she
hasn’t.”
“She hasn’t called me in a long time either. Is Dad really that busy with work? Have they forgotten that
I’m waiting for them at home? Ms. Rayna, do you think something might’ve happened to my dad?” Carl
asked unhappily.
Rayna felt her heart skip a beat. She rolled her eyes at him and said impatiently, “Your parents are fine,
so stop worrying about them. They’re probably just too busy with work to contact you or something.”
She then gave him a pinch on the cheek as she continued, “Besides, isn’t it great to have Mr. Curtis
looking after you? He can give you all the nice food and drinks that you want!”
“It is great. I just miss my parents, that’s all.”
Rayna pursed her lips and asked with a smile, “I’ll try giving them a call in the afternoon. If they really
are too busy toe home anytime soon, then I will take you there to see them. What do you say?”
“Really?”
“Yes, that’s right. Have I ever lied to you? The people at Sanders Group are scheming to take over the
company while your mother is away. They’ve been spreading rumors about bad stuff happening to your
mother, so you mustn’t believe the stuff you hear on the news. Listen only to what I tell you, okay? I’ll
make sure to help your mother manage Sanders Group,” Rayna said.
Carl nodded. “Got it. Mommy told me about Sanders Group before. I wish I could grow up faster. That
way, I could help relieve some of her burdens.”
As much as it pained Rayna to hide the truth from Carl, she had no choice but to try and y it cool.
“It’s fine. Your dad is back, isn’t he? Look, you’re growing just fine. Grow any faster and you’ll steal the
hearts of all the girls in the country! Can’t have that now, can we? Just remember to ignore the rumors
and trust only what I tell you. I’ll take care of the rest.”
“Okay, I trust you, Ms. Rayna!”
Rayna breathed a sigh of relief when she saw how much Carl trusted her.
Carl asked Rayna if she would like to drive the sports car to work, but she turned his offer down without
any hesitation.
Almost everyone recognizes Curtis’ Pagani. I will never hear the end of it if my colleagues see me pull
up in this car!
With that in mind, Rayna left the residential area and hailed a taxi instead.
On the way to the office, she pulled out her phone and read through the news.
Sure enough, the news of Jasmine’s car ident overseas had made it onto the headlines of various
news websites, thanks to the help of some people.
N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.
She took screenshots of those headlines, sent them to E and Jasmine’s secretary, and had them
contact the respective newspanies.
On top of that, there was another news article that caught Rayna’s attention.
ording to the article, a truck had rammed into a sedan on the road, causing it to flip over. The
pregnant woman in the passenger seat died on the spot. The man had been rushed to a hospital and
was in critical condition.
While incidents like this weremon in the news, Rayna recognized the couple from the pictures
published. Their names and the car’s license te number were revealed, too.
Wait a minute… This is the couple that bumped into me yesterday!
The news shocked her so much that it left her stunned for quite a while.
Just yesterday, she was nning on having someone find more information on them using the man’s
phone number and address.
As Rayna continued going through the news article, she found out that the tragedy happened because
the man got distracted when his wife choked on her orange and didn’t pay attention to the road.
Rayna couldn’t help but feel sorry for the couple when she recalled how big the woman’s tummy was.
The baby would’ve been born very soon, and yet…
She instinctively rubbed her tummy at the thought of that.
Her babies had been rather active throughout the night and the morning after, but she wasn’t mad at
them in the slightest. If anything, it only made her want to protect them even more.
The mere thought of Curtis’ cold attitude upset Rayna deeply. “I’m sorry you three have toe to
work with me. Don’t worry; I’ll do my best to protect you all.”
No, these are my babies. I can raise them just fine on my own!
Rayna got really busy with attending meetings and going through mountains of documents upon
arriving at the office.
When she did have some free time, Rayna would call Gabriel and ask about the situation in Xyperia.
The first few times she called Gabriel, he would stammer while replying as he was uncertain about the
situation as well.
When Rayna called again two dayster, however, he told her, “Mr. Faymon has located Mr. Xavier.
He’s fine, but…”
“But what?” Rayna asked anxiously.
Gabriel let out a sigh a few secondster. “Mr. Xavier lost his cool when he found out that Ms. Sanders
was still unconscious in the hospital. He then confronted Old Mr. Xavier about it, and the two of them
got into a fight.”
