    Dear Sweetheart Chapter 597


    Chapter 597


    Once the nanny had left with the baby, Rayna walked Ringo to the corner, where thetter promptly


    handed her a document envelope. “My reason foring today isn’t just to give the kid her present. It’s


    also to give you this, Ms. Gand.”


    With that, Rayna took out the sheets of paper from the envelope and nced through them, only to


    suddenly freeze in her tracks.


    “When Mr. Hamilton was stuck in Yartran while waiting for his visa application, Old Mr. Ternc visited


    him. He told Mr. Hamilton that he had already made the will and paved the road for him,” Ringo


    exined. “As soon as Mr. Hamilton moved you to Pillere, he called me over and gave me the will for


    safekeeping. I was told to pass it to you only after his death. Hiswyer has a copy of it too.”


    Rayna found herself at a loss for words as she trembled.


    “Ms. Gand, Mr. Cyrus Ternc is also dead. If Ternc Group were to fall into other people’s hands,


    it’d undoubtedly be cleaned out within half a year. That’s why Mr. Hamilton wanted to give it to you. He


    knew he could trust you,” Ringo added.


    After a bout of silence, Rayna finally suppressed her grief and slid the documents back into the


    envelope. “Rest assured that I’ll protect what’s his. What about you? Where will you go from here?”


    “I’ll go wherever life takes me. I’ve served Mr. Hamilton for so long that his death still feels surreal.”


    “Stay here, then,” Rayna said, smiling as she nced at her baby in the nanny’s arms. “After all, I’ve


    found a new boss for you and Emerald. The kid may be difficult to handle now, but it’d be better once


    she gets older. Would you like that?”


    Upon hearing that, Ringo curled his lips into a smile. “Well, she’s also a Hamilton. I’d love nothing more


    than to ept your offer.”


    It’d feel like I’m working for Mr. Hamilton again.


    With no time to waste, Rayna immediately followed Ringo to Yartran after throwing a wee baby


    party for Xareni.


    Since Rayna and Jefferson weren’t married, it was no surprise that everyone in Ternc Group was


    upset about the content of the will. Even the shareholders were against the arrangement and tried


    buying out her shares.


    Now that Jefferson was out of the picture, the ownership battle between Arnaud, Rayna, and the rest of


    the Ternc Group dragged on for two months. Curtis wanted to go over to help, but Rayna stopped


    him, leaving him with no choice but to send James in his stead.


    After sixty-eight days of back-and-forth and having survived more than a dozen assassinations, Rayna


    finally got the other Ternc Group members to throw in the towel. She made them sign an agreement,


    which allowed her to execute Jefferson’s will and officially take over thepany.


    With all that settled, Rayna left Ringo to oversee Ternc Group while she returned home with James.


    Needless to say, Curtis jumped at the chance to pick them up.


    Upon stepping out of the airport, Rayna’s gaze instantly fell on the tall, handsome man standing by his


    car.


    Despite dressing simply in a ck coat and sunsses, he still managed to attract several admiring


    nces from female passers-by.


    Rayna quickly walked up to hug Curtis and wrapped a scarf around his neck. “I hate that you’ll always


    look this good because you don’t have to give birth. You’re attracting so much unwanted attention!”


    Curtis burst outughing and kissed Rayna. However, he felt his heart ache when he saw how tired she


    was. “It’s been hard on you.”


    “If you love me, you should pray for me to age slowly,” Rayna muttered as she stepped into the car.


    “Make it so that people might mistake me for your daughter when we’re out together.”


    After joining her in the backseat, Curtis yfully pinched her cheeks. “Aren’t you afraid your two


    daughters would get upset if they hear that?”


    “Are you kidding? I’d be more than happy to be their sister!” Rayna eximed before kicking off her


    heels and resting her feet on him. “I’ve been wearing heels for the past two months to make myself


    look confident and poised. I don’t even think I can feel my legs anymore. Rub my feet for me.”


    “Sure,” Curtis instantly replied, giving Rayna a foot massage as he instructed James to drive slower.


    James nced at his sister through the rearview mirror and huffed, “She’s only pretending, Curtis!


    Can’t you tell? You should’ve seen how she fought with the others at the office. Judging by the speed


    she was moving around, there’s no way her feet were aching.”


    The next second, Rayna angrily picked up a cushion and threw it at James. “Can’t I act coy around my


    husband? What’s it to you? Follow up with Jeremy about the medicine if you have nothing better to do.


    You’re getting on my nerves!”


    With that, James frowned and remained silent for the rest of the journey.


    “By the way, how are the kids? I’ve been away from them for more than two months. Will they not


    recognize me anymore?” Rayna asked.


    “I’m sure they won’t recognize you, but they’ll warm up to you once you’ve spent more time with them,”


    Curtis reassured as he gently ced a cushion behind his wife. “I’ll take you to the hospital tomorrow


    when you’ve rested enough.”


    “Hospital? What for?”


    “Jasmine woke up a month after you left for Yartran. She has since been transferred to the hospital in


    Norwal City.”


    Rayna gasped in disbelief. “Really? Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”


    “Have you forgotten how busy you were in Yartran? Besides, with Jeremy and Theodore at the


    hospital, what do we have to worry about?”


    Rayna punched him lightly and turned to James. “Forget about going home. Let’s head to the hospital


    first. Otherwise, I won’t be able to sleep tonight.”

    Soon, the three of them arrived at the hospital.


    Since Theodore was busy with work, he couldn’t be at the hospital daily. Thankfully, Carl could, and


    Rayna caught him practicing Anndurn with Jasmine when she walked into the ward.


    Meanwhile, Jasmine sat in bed in her hospital gown, looking rosy-cheeked and happy.


    Upon seeing Jasmine in the pink of health, Rayna heaved a sigh of relief and smiled. “Hello, Jasmine.”


    “Rayna!” Jasmine said excitedly as she held the woman’s hand. “You’ve been through so much, yet


    you still took such good care of Carl. I can’t thank you enough.”


    “Don’t mention it. Carl’s a good boy.”


    Carl hastily dragged a chair over and offered it to Rayna. “Please have a seat, my future mother-in-


    law.”


    Naturally, that stunned both Rayna and Jasmine.


    Thetter was the first to snap out of her daze as she blushed with embarrassment and lightly smacked


    her son. “My goodness! What was that about? Has Rayna even promised to let you marry her


    daughter?”


    “Yes. I’ve already discussed it with Ms. Rayna even before my wife was born,” Carl asserted. “Isn’t that


    right, Ms. Rayna?”


    Not knowing how to react, Rayna ruffled the boy’s hair. “Yes, but Yellie’s too young. Can you talk about


    this when she’s older? You’d seem desperate if you keep bringing this up now.”


    “Your words aren’t very reassuring, Ms. Rayna!” Carl grumbled before turning to his mother. “Mommy,


    do you have any precious gifts like a ne or bracelet? I want to give them to Yellie first and solidify


    our marriage. Otherwise, Ms. Rayna might toss me aside if she finds a better son-inw in the future!”


    The two women couldn’t help but exchange nces.


    “Jasmine, are you sure you brought the right baby home?” Rayna asked. “No matter how I look, Carl’s


    personality is worlds apart from yours or Theodore’s.”


    Jasmine hesitated for a moment before replying, “I don’t think so… Carl looks exactly like Theodore


    when he was young.”


    “Hmm… Aren’t there also many kids who resemble celebrities when they were young?”


    “Oh, that’s true.”


    Knowing his mother and Rayna were making fun of him, Carl sulked and left the ward to look for


    Jeremy.


    Argh! I’m sure I’ll be able to find someone who can give me something good!


    After seeing the boy run out of the ward, Jasmine and Rayna burst intoughter.


    Thetter then grabbed an apple and began peeling it. “I heard Theodore sent his parents to the


    countryside as soon as he returned. He has even taken over Old Mr. Xavier’s duties and


    responsibilities, hasn’t he?”


    “I don’t want him to, though. The work’s too exhausting,” Jasmine muttered, sighing as she recalled


    what Theodore had told her when she woke up. “Once he officially takes over the job, I might only get


    to see him twice a year. That said, I know the expansion has to go on.”


    Rayna handed a slice of apple to Jasmine and pursed her lips. “Mrs. Xavier said she was merely acting


    on someone else’s advice when she ordered the attack on you. It was never her intention to kill you. I


    even asked her who the instigator was, but in the end…”
