Upon hearing that, Rayna was overwhelmed by mixed reactions.

Before this, she hated Curtis for killing her brother and forcing Kristie to marry. After learning the truth, she realized Curtis did everything in their best interest.

Upon noticing how quiet Rayna was, James asked, “Are you not feeling well?”

“I’m fine.” Rayna regained her composure and grinned at him. “Don’t worry about us. All right, I need to head to the office now. Let’s talk more tonight.”

James had no choice but to keep mum.

Rayna’s baby bump was growing fast, so even all her loose clothes could no longer hide her belly. Driving had become tedious, so she could only hail a cab by the road.

Throughout the journey to the office, she scrolled through the news on her phone.

Most trending news articles were related to celebrity gossip and weather reports—not a single post about last night’s incident.

Rayna tried keying a few keywords in the search engine but found nothing.

She then checked the other news portals, but all the news articles were celebrity gossip. No one reported on the drama that had happened between Curtis and her.

Rayna heaved a sigh of relief. It seems Faymon Group’s public relations has stepped up its game. It was such a newsworthy incident, yet none of the media published a story about it. It didn’t even impact Faymon Group’s share price in the slightest.

Soon, the cab arrived at Glory Corporation.

“Good morning, Ms. Garland.”

“Good to see you, Ms. Garland,” the employees at the lobby greeted Rayna as she entered the building.

Rayna nodded and responded with a grin. She could tell they were all curious but were too afraid to ask her about what had happened. Even though last night’s incident didn’t make headlines, many people are still aware of it, as the entire session was streamed live!
