“She’s not married to Theodore yet, so you should go to the Sanders family about this. Why come to me? I’ve got
plenty of problems to deal with right now!” said Wyatt, clearly annoyed.
“Because Mr. Xavier is in trouble too.”
The look on Wyatt’s face changed instantly as he snapped his head to the side, staring at Gabriel. “What do you
mean by that?”
Gabriel walked up to Wyatt and whispered something in his ear.
Wyatt frowned in concern after hearing what he said.
He then shot Rayna a vicious glare before shoving her off. “I’ll come back for you when this is over, Rayna!”
Rayna didn’t see that coming and wasn’t able to steady herself in time, thus ending up crashing into her desk.
She gasped in pain as her tummy hit the sharp corner of the desk.
Gabriel ran up to her and held her steady. “Are you okay, Ms. Garland?”
As Rayna’s tummy was still pressing against the desk, Gabriel noticed her baby bump and was surprised.
After a brief pause, he came to a realization and stared wide-eyed at Rayna in shock. “M-Ms. Garland, are you…”
“I’m fine.” Rayna brushed his hand off and slowly straightened her back.
It took quite a while for the pain to go away.
She then tried to change the subject by asking, “Tell me what happened. How did this happen to Mr. Xavier and
Jasmine?”
“Well… I’ll tell you more about it in the car. I need you to come with me to Sanders Group right away,” Gabriel
replied solemnly, dropping the subject regarding her tummy.
“All right.” Rayna didn’t dare waste another second after realizing how serious the matter was.
As Ella was still in pain after being kicked by Wyatt earlier, Rayna had her take the rest of the day off. After taking
care of things at work, she left her office with Gabriel.
Gabriel told her the full story in detail during their journey to Sanders Group.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtApparently, Theodore’s father was not injured at all. Emma made up that lie to trick Theodore into going to
Xyperia. She had her husband help her out with this. Together, they captured Theodore the moment he arrived in
Xyperia.
As Theodore didn’t bring a lot of his men with him on that trip, his father’s men had them greatly outnumbered.
After drugging Theodore, Emma sent Noel’s daughter, Selena Young, over to him.
Sure enough, Selena was confirmed to be pregnant ten days ago.
Jasmine, who was heading over to Xyperia, had found out about it as well.
Emma cherished her precious grandchild and feared that Jasmine would hurt Selena because of the baby. Hence,
Emma asked someone to take Jasmine out by faking a car accident.
Although Jasmine survived the incident, she was barely alive and was in critical condition at the hospital.
Due to the huge amount of information, it took Rayna quite a while to process all of it.
“Does Mrs. Xavier’s shamelessness know no bounds? That’s her son we’re talking about!” she asked after a long
pause.
Gabriel let out a sigh from behind the wheel. “As you know, Mrs. Xavier has always hated Ms. Sanders for being an
illegitimate daughter. Now that she has gotten back together with Mr. Xavier, there’s no way she’d just sit by and
watch.”
“Even so, she shouldn’t have used such a horrible method! How could she send another woman to Mr. Xavier? That
poor woman even got pregnant as a result!” Rayna gritted her teeth.
Jasmine probably had a mental breakdown when she found out about Selena’s pregnancy. It wasn’t easy for her to
get back together with Mr. Xavier after five long years, and yet, he got another woman pregnant before they even
had a chance to spend some quality time together. If Carl finds out about this…
Having realized the severity of the situation, Rayna asked, “Is Curtis currently in Xyperia as well? Has he contacted
Carl about this?”
“Mr. Faymon won’t tell him. Carl is still very young, so Mr. Faymon won’t get him involved in this. As of now, Mr.
Faymon is trying to come up with a solution to rescue Mr. Xavier,” Gabriel replied.
“Oh, that’s good to know. In that case, I’ll hurry up and settle my visa application—”
“No need for that, Ms. Garland. You may not be able to leave this country.”
Rayna paused. “What do you mean? Is he not allowing me to go there?”
“As you know, Ms. Sanders is fully in charge of Sanders Group. All of its higher-ups found out about her accident in
Xyperia, and they’re all freaking out right now. Her father wants to use this opportunity to get his hands on her
shares and regain control over Sanders Group. He has summoned the board of directors for a meeting today to
discuss this matter.”
“He’s trying to take Sanders Group from her even though she’s still alive? How disgusting! Jasmine will have to take
orders from him if he successfully takes over Sanders Group!” Rayna exclaimed with a look of disgust on her face.
“Don’t worry, Ms. Garland. Ms. Sanders has already made the necessary arrangements before leaving the country.
If anything were to happen to her overseas, you would receive all of her shares in Sanders Group,” Gabriel said.
Rayna was shocked. “What? I’m just an outsider, though! Why would she hand them over to me?”
“Perhaps Ms. Sanders trusts you a lot. I was just as shocked as you when I first saw the content of the document.
However, apart from Mr. Faymon, you’re the only other person she could trust who is capable of managing Sanders
Group,” Gabriel replied after giving it some thought.
“Why didn’t she put Mr. Faymon in charge, then?”
“I’m guessing she doesn’t want to trouble him because he’s very busy. It’s also possible that you’re special to Ms.
Sanders, and you’re the only person she wants to be in charge of Sanders Group,” Gabriel deduced.
That was the first time someone had trusted Rayna so much, so she didn’t really know how to respond. “But I’m not
as capable as she is.”
Gabriel glanced at her through the rear-view mirror and said with a smile, “You’re Mr. Faymon’s student and the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmvice CEO of a company. I don’t know anyone else more capable than you, Ms. Garland.”
The look on Rayna’s face turned cold as she exclaimed, “What are you talking about? I’m not his student! Shut up
and keep driving! I don’t want to hear about him!”
Whoa… Ms. Garland’s temper is getting worse. She clearly gets it from Mr. Faymon…
The meeting of Sanders Group’s board of directors was in progress when Rayna and Gabriel arrived at the
conference room.
All eyes were on them the moment they came in through the door.
Mark’s face clouded over when he recognized Gabriel. “We’re in the middle of a meeting here, Mr. Tylinski. How
could you just barge in like this?”
“I do apologize for the interruption. I’m here today because Ms. Sanders has requested me to help her out.” Gabriel
replied with a friendly smile while leading Rayna into the conference room.
“You can drop the act! We know that Ms. Sanders got into an accident overseas! She’s still in the hospital right now,
so how could she possibly have asked you for help?” said one of the directors.
Gabriel said with a nod while placing a document on the table. “I see that you are all very well informed. However,
Ms. Sanders entrusted me with this task before she went overseas.”
Mark, who was in the main seat, took the document and skimmed through its contents.
A few seconds later, he got mad and yelled angrily, “Nonsense! I am Jasmine’s father, so I should be the one in
charge of her shares now that she is in the hospital! Why would she hand them over to an outsider?”
“Sorry, I’m not sure why Ms. Sanders chose to do that, but she has signed these documents, so they are now legally
binding. If you’re concerned, I could have the lawyer, Mr. Leatham, come over and explain the details. Ms. Sanders
has also spoken to him about this,” Gabriel replied politely.
The directors passed the document around and took turns reading through it.
Just like Mark, they were all unwilling to accept Jasmine’s arrangement.
“It should be Ms. Sanders’ father who manages her shares while she’s in the hospital.”
“That’s right! How could she put an outsider in charge of Sanders Group? We will not accept this!”
