Dear Sweetheart Chapter 564


    Chapter 564


    What was Curtis thinking? Isn’t it enough to have Carl keeping mepany? Why did he ask Mom to


    come over? To make matters worse, he even asked his mom toe along!


    Linda had brought some soup, and she was adamant about feeding Rayna some. She was


    heartbroken, and she even said she wanted to stay to apany Rayna.


    Sandy was feeling the same way, and she helped Linda convince Rayna to move into the Faymon


    residence.


    Rayna was having a tough time listening to both of them. She came up with some excuses to get them


    to leave.


    Before Rayna could get some proper rest, someone violently pushed the door open. Instinctively, she


    turned to the door.


    Rayna immediately furrowed her brows when she saw her visitor. With a grim expression, she asked,


    “Mrs. Xavier, aren’t you a sophisticated person? Don’t you think you should’ve knocked?”


    “Rayna, I didn’te here to talk nonsense!” In her purple dress and a string of pearls around her


    neck, Emma walked up to Rayna and red at her. “Do you know Selena’s dead?”


    Rayna maintained her cold expression. “Well, now I know. It’s such a shame you’ve lost a daughter-in-


    law.”


    Emma was livid when she saw how indifferent Rayna was. “I know Curtis made her death seem like an


    ident! You’re involved in her death, aren’t you?”


    “If you want to use me of causing Selena’s death, please show some evidence,” Rayna sneered.


    “I’m here thinking that you were the one who got rid of her because she lost her child.”


    “You—”


    Rayna lifted her gaze toward Emma and added, “That’s not something you’ve never done before,


    right?”


    “How dare you!” Emma roared, then pointed at Rayna’s leg. “If Selena’s death had nothing to do with


    you, how did you end up lying here? I heard you had a fight with Selena in the restaurant!”


    “That’s right. She wanted to kill me with a gun,” Rayna answered. “I should sue her because I’m the


    victim here, but I don’t know how she died.”


    Rayna was sharp with her words, and what she said made sense. Emma couldn’t think of any


    comebacks. This damned girl! She’s as sharp-tongued as Jasmine!


    Gripping her purse, Emma said in a cold tone, “Selena’s Mr. Nicholson’s favorite daughter. Now that


    she’s dead, Mr. Nicholson will surely get to the bottom of it! Rayna, do you really think you have


    absolute power in Norwal City?”


    “Are you kidding me? Isn’t the Xavier family the most powerful force in Norwal City? Besides, is her


    death a threat to you? The most you’ve lost is a baby machine.”


    Emma was so pissed off that she couldn’t utter a word in response.


    “Aren’t you an incredible woman, Mrs. Xavier? I’m sure you can find a recement in no time. Oh! I’m


    sorry. I’ve forgotten the fact that your son is now unconscious. Even if you find a recement, there’s


    no use,” Rayna added.


    “How rude of you!” Emma lost herposure and raised her hand into the air to p Rayna.


    However, Rayna held Emma’s wrist and grabbed a cup of hot water from the table before throwing it at


    Emma’s face.


    Emma hurriedly whipped out her handkerchief to wipe herself dry. When she saw the wet patch on the


    cor of her dress, she red at Rayna and roared, “Are you insane? This dress is handmade!”


    “I’m sorry. The cup slipped out of my hand,” Rayna said calmly. “I’ll just buy you another one.”


    While wiping her dress, Emma gritted her teeth and looked at someone she thought was disrespectful.


    “Rayna, who do you think you are? I can easily chase you out of Norwal City with one word!”


    Unperturbed, Rayna smiled and said, “I know you’re capable of doing that, but you wouldn’t dare.”


    Emma gave Rayna a death stare. When I met this womanst year, she was gullible and timid. She


    was nothing like Jasmine. Now, she’s being disrespectful toward me. Right, the Faymon family is


    backing her. No wonder she’s not afraid of me!


    While Emma was staring at Rayna, a set of footsteps rang out from behind. It was then followed by a


    child asking, “Ms. Rayna, who’s this woman?”


    Rayna didn’t expect Carl to return so soon. Before she could get him to leave, Emma was already


    exchanging nces with Carl.


    In the next second, Emma lost her bnce, and she almost fell to the ground.


    “You… You…” Emma pointed at Carl and stared at him.


    She was having trouble forming her sentence because she was stunned by the familiar facial features


    on Carl’s face.


    Because of Emma’s intense stare, Carl felt a chill running down his spine. “Ms. Rayna, why is this


    woman staring at me?”


    Rayna pursed her lips and answered truthfully, “She’s Mrs. Xavier.”


    Mrs. Xavier? Daddy’s mom? Carl froze for a couple of seconds before regaining his senses. After that,


    his face turned solemn, and there was a hint of hatred in his eyes when he looked at Emma.


    Emma staggered toward Carl and squatted down. She wanted to touch his face, but he quickly pped


    her hand away.


    Instead of getting mad, Emma asked in her trembling voice, “You look exactly like Theodore when he


    was little! What’s your name? Who’s your mother?”


    Carl retreated and distanced himself from her. “Don’t you know my mommy? You’ve never liked her.”


    “Jasmine…” Emma widened her eyes in shock and held a hand over her mouth. “Y-You’re her kid?


    How could this be? Didn’t she secretly marry someone else and got pregnant? Why do you look so


    much like Theodore?”


    “Didn’t you do your investigation thoroughly, Mrs. Xavier? Carl looks exactly like Mr. Xavier, no? How


    could Carl be anyone else’s kid?” Rayna sneered.


    Upon finding out the truth, Emma fell to the floor with no care for her image.


    She merely stared at Carl in disbelief. “How could this be? I thought Jasmine was sleeping around with


    other guys before getting pregnant. Who would’ve thought…”


    Fortunately for her, she didn’t send someone to harm the child. Otherwise, she would have to live with


    guilt for the rest of her life.


    “If you thought she was fooling around with other guys, why didn’t you tell Mr. Xavier about it? Weren’t


    you hoping for Mr. Xavier to leave Jasmine because of this?” Rayna asked.


    Emma was overwhelmed with guilt. “Jasmine’s friend told me Jasmine was fooling around. I was angry


    at Jasmine at that time because she was pestering Theodore.”


    “A friend? Who? Didn’t you know from your own investigators?” Rayna frowned.


    Emma shook her head, and she couldn’t remember who that person was. “I can’t remember her name.


    She told me Jasmine married someone secretly and gave birth to a child. I asked someone to


    investigate the matter and found out that Jasmine really gave birth to a child. I was worried that


    Jasmine would hold Theodore up, so I did as Jasmine’s friend had told me and tricked Theodore into


    going to Xyperia. I merely wanted to teach Jasmine a lesson. I didn’t expect the driver to be so


    ruthless. Also, I didn’t expect…”


    Indeed, she didn’t expect Theodore to attempt suicide.


    We were right! Someone instructed Mrs. Xavier! Rayna finally sensed that something was amiss after


    listening to those words. She recalled the conversation she had with Curtis the other day, and neither of


    them thought Emma was capable of such ruthless actions. They thought she was most probably


    following someone’s instructions.


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    With her face clouded over, Rayna asked, “Mrs. Xavier, tell me how you met that person, what you


    guys talk about, and what he asked you to do!”
