Chapter 598
However, Jefferson tricked her into leaving with him when she went out with Curtis, and she ended up being gone
for months.
Jasmine paused and stared at Rayna as she asked, “Did Curtis not tell you about all that?”
Rayna froze. “Tell me about what?”
Jasmine then told her that Stella was Mathias' illegitimate daughter and that Arnaud had planted her in Faymon
Group's senior management. She had been spying on them and reporting her findings back to Arnaud.
Stella was also the one behind the duck stew incident in Summerbank. On top of that, she also taught Vivi to mail
the perfume sample to Egret Scents, helped Gianna get revenge on Wyatt by driving a wedge between Wyatt and
Jessica, and instigated Emma to take Jasmine out.
Despite working for Arnaud, Stella was greedy and wanted even more money. She then used her relationship with
Gabriel to obtain Faymon Group's top secret documents so she could sell them off. She even tried to liquidate the
company's assets.
“However, Stella got pregnant, so Gabriel took the fall for her and went to prison. Curtis decided to lay a little trap
for Stella by giving her two percent of Faymon Group's shares. Little did she know, he was actually baiting her into
cashing them out. When she obtained two billion in cash and was preparing to make a run for it, Curtis had his men
capture her.”
Rayna was so shocked by the revelation that she just froze up completely.
She did not expect a beautiful woman like Stella to be so cruel and heartless. “I can't believe she managed to pull
all of that off by herself... I can understand her working for Arnaud because she has a grudge against me, but why
would she help Gianna and Mrs. Xavier?”
“She's Mr. Ziegler's illegitimate daughter, so you can imagine the kind of life she has been living before this. Her
desperate need for money is fueled by her feelings of insecurity and envy toward those who live happy lives. She
needs everyone around her to suffer so she can feel better about herself,” Jasmine said with a sneer.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRayna tightened her grip on the knife and wished she could plunge it into Stella's throat. “Where is she now?”
“Mr. Tylinski has been working for Curtis for many years. Not wanting to lose such a talented assistant, Curtis
ordered his men to keep an eye on Stella. Once she gives birth to her baby, he will decide on her punishment.”
Rayna nodded in agreement after hearing that.
Stella has done a lot of horrible things, but her baby is innocent and should be spared. Who knows? Mr. Tylinski
might be able to raise that child to be just as talented as he is!
As Rayna had been working really hard for over two months in Yartran, she was in desperate need of a break. After
chatting for about an hour, Curtis knocked on the door and asked to bring her home.
On the way back, Rayna had a disappointed look on her face as she looked out the window and said, “Jasmine has
regained consciousness, and yet, we still haven't heard from Jessie. Her baby is almost due.”
Curtis held her hand and gave it a gentle squeeze. “Just because she isn't in Norwal City doesn't mean she's having
it rough. I think a certain someone is even more worried about her. I bet he's losing sleep every night just thinking
of her.”
Rayna's expression turned gloomy the moment she heard that. “Nonsense! He's having lots of fun every day! He
even showed up at Glory and slapped me across the face! Can you believe that?”
“I beat him up for you, didn't I? He spent three whole days in a hospital bed, remember?” Curtis comforted her with
a chuckle.
Curtis didn't know about Wyatt hitting Rayna until Kristie told him about it. Even though Wyatt didn't do so on
purpose, Curtis still confronted him and beat him up anyway.
He loved Rayna so much that he would never let anyone lay a finger on her, not even his mother.
Rayna shot him a glare and said, “You did, but I'm still mad at him! You know what? I think you should stay away
from him. I don't want you becoming abusive like him!”
“Come on, it's not that serious—”
Rayna narrowed her eyes. “Do you want your wife and kids or not? Oh, that's right, I haven't married you, so I can
easily marry someone else!”
Curtis quickly pulled her into his embrace. “You'll never see him again.”
“That's more like it,” Rayna said with a smile.
Upon arriving home, Rayna was surprised to see that Kristie and Linda had come over.
Kristie wasn't able to knit clothes for the babies like Linda, so she bought them electronic baby cradles instead.
“Just so you know, these cradles are custom-made and cost about a hundred thousand each! What do you think of
my gift, Rayna?” she asked with a smile while clinging to Rayna's arm.
“It's great, but...” Rayna paused and stared at her for a few seconds before continuing, “What do you want from
Curtis this time?”
Kristie whispered hesitantly in her ear, “My household registry.”
Despite not being a Faymon, Kristie had been registered as Curtis' sister under the Faymon family's household
registry. Even so, she had never gotten her hands on her own household registry.
“What do you want it for?” Rayna asked while receiving the cup of coffee that the housekeeper brought her.
“To get married.”
Rayna was so shocked that she choked on the coffee and spilled some on her shirt collar.
“W-Who are you marrying? Samson?” she stammered anxiously as she wiped the coffee off her shirt collar.
Kristie nodded and said excitedly, “I've already bought the wedding gown. I want to have kids too!”
She then held Rayna's hand and shook it as she pleaded with a pout, “Come on, Rayna... Pretty please! I just need
you to steal my household registry and secretly give it to me. I'll return it as soon as I'm done using it. Curt won't
find out! Well? Say something, Rayna! What, you don't love me anymore?”
“I do, but I'm afraid I won't be able to help you out.” Rayna pulled her hand back and tried to change the topic by
saying, “We'll go shopping after lunch, okay?”
Kristie's heart sank when she heard that. “Rayna, are you siding with Curt? I know Samson is older than me by a
few years, but there's nothing wrong with that, both morally and legally! Why can't I marry him?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“That's not the problem here. It's...” Unsure of what to say, Rayna had Curtis come over and excused herself to
help Linda in the kitchen.
Curtis stared at Kristie with an eyebrow arched. “What is it?”
Fearing that Curtis would react even more strongly than Rayna, Kristie decided not to tell him about her request. “I-
It's nothing! Ah, I think the babies are crying! I'll go check it out!”
Curtis fell speechless and watched as she took off frantically.
After lunch, Rayna asked Kristie if she would like to go shopping together. Noticing the menacing look in Curtis'
eyes, Kristie turned her invitation down and quickly left with James.
On the drive home, Kristie propped her chin up with one hand and let out a sigh. “Curt and Rayna don't love me
anymore. Life is so depressing...”
James shot her a glance from the driver's seat. “What happened this time?”
Kristie was about to tell him about her conversation with Rayna earlier but held herself back after giving it some
thought. “Forget it. You wouldn't be able to help me out even if I told you,” She replied with a wave.
Their conversation was interrupted when James' phone started ringing all of a sudden.
Upon seeing Jeremy's name on the caller ID, James put on his earphones and answered the call, “What's up,
Jeremy?”
“Have you taken your medication?” Jeremy asked.
“I took it an hour ago, but I haven't noticed any effects so far,” James replied.
Jeremy flipped through some documents and said after a few seconds, “It was formulated based on the original
prescription, so it'll take about eight hours for you to notice its effects. Let me know if you experience any
discomfort.”
“Got it.”
“What were you and Jeremy talking about? Why won't you let me listen in on the conversation?” Kristie asked the
moment he hung up the phone.
