Chapter 132 Attempted Assassination

After Faymon Group’s crisis passed, Rayna could finally relax. However, as the acting CEO, she had to read dozens of emails, approve documents, and learn difficult financial terms every day. The work was taking a toll on her.

Linda rarely went online, but she immediately called Rayna after reading the news.

“Is my son-in-law all right?”

“Mom, he isn’t your son-in-law. Stop calling him that,” Rayna corrected her. “Mr. Faymon is my superior. He’s still in the hospital, though. The doctor says he is recovering well. I might visit him later.”

Linda didn’t even listen to her and continued, “He seems okay. He has his own company, right? You should thank your lucky stars if he wants a divorcee like you.”

Rayna was speechless.

“Go visit him at the hospital whenever you’re free. He has his own company, so I think women would flock to him. Don’t let someone else take him away from you. Oh, remember to contact Roxanne. You guys should come back home for dinner sometime.”

The call was ended abruptly.

Barely two minutes had passed since Rayna answered the call, but Linda had already hung up. Besides, she only talked about Curtis as though Rayna didn’t exist.

Rayna heaved a sigh.

I shouldn’t have brought Curtis back when he got drunk. Otherwise, Mom wouldn’t have assumed there is something going on between us.

Rayna was still busy with work when it was time to get off work. Jessica had sent a text saying she was going to meet up with James as it was his school break. She sounded really happy and excited about it.

James might be dense, but Rayna had high hopes for him as he was tall and smart. Rayna wondered if they could get along well.

After replying to Jessica’s text, Rayna got back to work.

When someone from the risk department arrived to deliver some documents and asked if Rayna was hungry, she belatedly realized that it was already nine o’clock. After packing up her stuff, she went to the hospital.
