With a fiery look in his eyes, Curtis tightened his grip over her hand.

“Rayna, enough.”

“What do you mean enough? What’s wrong with you?” Rayna struggled vigorously to free herself. “Do you know who Selena is? What are we going to do once Carl finds out—Mmm!”

Curtis restrained her in his embrace while covering her mouth with his hand.

Failing to free herself, Rayna could only watch as Curtis’ men kicked open the door for Emma to rush inside.

All she could do at that moment was close her eyes and pray that the doctor had completed the abortion.

With her heart hanging in suspense, Rayna finally saw Emma emerge from the operating room with the crying Selena in her arms.

Emma was in the midst of calming the latter down with gentle words of comfort.

Nonetheless, it was clear from the relieved smile on Emma’s face that Selena was saved in the nick of time, a realization that caused Rayna’s heart to sink.

Thereafter, Curtis apologized to Emma, “Mrs. Xavier, I’m sorry that you and Ms. Young had to go through such a harrowing experience.”

As her smile faded away, Emma snapped back, “You’re lucky that Selena and the child are fine. Otherwise, her life wouldn’t have been enough to pay for what she has done!”

“You’re right.” Curtis nodded. “My men will send you home.”

“Forget it!”

Emma rejected him outright before helping Selena out of the hospital.

Upon watching both of them leave, Rayna struggled to break free from Curtis’ grip with all her might and attempted to give chase. Unfortunately, before she could even take a step, her arm was grabbed again.

“Curtis, let go of me!”

“Stop it, Rayna.” Curtis refused to let go with a grim look on his face. “The Xavier family and the Nicholson family are very close. If anything were to happen to Selena, the Nicholsons will not forgive you.”
