What was Curtis thinking? Isn’t it enough to have Carl keeping me company? Why did he ask Mom to come over? To make matters worse, he even asked his mom to come along!

Linda had brought some soup, and she was adamant about feeding Rayna some. She was heartbroken, and she even said she wanted to stay to accompany Rayna.

Sandy was feeling the same way, and she helped Linda convince Rayna to move into the Faymon residence.

Rayna was having a tough time listening to both of them. She came up with some excuses to get them to leave.

Before Rayna could get some proper rest, someone violently pushed the door open. Instinctively, she turned to the door.

Rayna immediately furrowed her brows when she saw her visitor. With a grim expression, she asked, “Mrs. Xavier, aren’t you a sophisticated person? Don’t you think you should’ve knocked?”

“Rayna, I didn’t come here to talk nonsense!” In her purple dress and a string of pearls around her neck, Emma walked up to Rayna and glared at her. “Do you know Selena’s dead?”

Rayna maintained her cold expression. “Well, now I know. It’s such a shame you’ve lost a daughter-in-law.”

Emma was livid when she saw how indifferent Rayna was. “I know Curtis made her death seem like an accident! You’re involved in her death, aren’t you?”

“If you want to accuse me of causing Selena’s death, please show some evidence,” Rayna sneered. “I’m here thinking that you were the one who got rid of her because she lost her child.”

“You—”

Rayna lifted her gaze toward Emma and added, “That’s not something you’ve never done before, right?”

“How dare you!” Emma roared, then pointed at Rayna’s leg. “If Selena’s death had nothing to do with you, how did you end up lying here? I heard you had a fight with Selena in the restaurant!”
