Chapter 209 Murder Rayna With The Same Technique
Rayna recalled that Carl’s identity had to be kept hidden after sensing that Theodore intended to probe further, so she forestalled him.
“He’s the son of my middle school classmate. Their family happens to stay in the same residential area as my mother, so I bring him out to play whenever I’m free. Why are you asking about him, Mr. Xavier? Have you taken a liking to that child?”
“Your classmate?” Theodore questioned in return.
She nodded and continued fabricating a story without batting an eyelid. “His mother is an art teacher, and his father is an ex-national table tennis player who retired last year.”
The man was visibly disappointed.
For some reason, the boy’s radiant eyes lingered in his mind after their encounter on that day. Although he knew it was impossible for the boy to be his son, he insisted on seeking confirmation.
That’s right. If Jasmine birthed a child, I couldn’t be clueless about it.
Fearing that Theodore might think deeper into the matter, Rayna changed the topic of the conversation. “Mr. Xavier, does Ms. Sanders know you’re still deeply in love with her? You’re truly selfless for allowing your ex-girlfriend to marry your close friend.”
In response, he shot a cold glance at her.
Nevertheless, she was undeterred. Upon glimpsing a tattoo of letters on the side of his finger, she immediately grabbed his hand. “This string of Anglandurn letters must be related to Ms. Sanders, right?”
Ms. Sanders! Ms. Sanders! How many times must she mention this name?
Theodore was already feeling ireful the entire night. The numerous mentions of “Ms. Sanders” further aggravated his unhappiness. He could no longer repress his fury, grabbing Rayna’s wrist fiercely and pushing her against the wall.
“Rayna, you should learn to shut up now that you’ve gotten what you’re supposed to receive.” His glare was dark and threatening, as if he wanted to kill her.
“Aren’t you overreacting? I didn’t say anything out of line.” Rayna continued to provoke him. “I suspect Ms. Sanders broke up with you because she couldn’t stand your temper.”
Hearing that, Theodore tightened his grip on her.
The pain caused her to wince. It felt like her wrist could snap at any moment.

“Theodore, you’d better treat me with more respect!” Rayna was getting furious as well. Glaring at him intensely, she snapped, “Remember, I have dirt on you!”
Theodore sneered as he lowered his head and inched closer toward her. “Well, tell me about it. What kind of dirt do you have on me?” he whispered in a cynical tone.
Rayna was so petrified that all the hair on her body stood straight up.
What a terrifying aura!
Her heart raced faster and faster, and her chest felt tight. Beads of cold sweat appeared on her forehead. All of a sudden, her face turned ghastly pale, and she collapsed into Theodore’s arms, catching him off guard.
The next second, he pulled her away from him, putting some distance between the two of them.
“Rayna?” Theodore called out to her, but she was unresponsive.
At the sight of her colorless face, his countenance darkened, and he scooped her up in his arms. The moment he raised his head, he discovered Jasmine standing by the wall. Both their gazes met. Startled by her appearance, he felt his throat go dry and tighten.
However, he did not say anything and hurriedly carried Rayna away.
Meanwhile, Jasmine grabbed onto the wall, feeling slightly breathless.
She knew Rayna could not be interested in Theodore, but the earlier sight of them behaving intimately with each other still made her uncomfortable.
After regaining her composure, Jasmine went to look for Curtis and told him everything she saw.
As soon as Curtis heard that Rayna had fainted and was carried away by Theodore, he made his way to the lounge together with Jasmine.
His strides were decisive, showing no signs of hesitation. On the way there, he called Jeremy.
Soon after the call connected, he heard the latter speak in a resigned tone. “Theodore called me thirty seconds ago. I’m on my way now. Could you check on her first, Curtis?”
Curtis replied, “Make your way here as fast as possible.”
Upon entering the lounge, he saw Rayna, who Theodore had laid on the couch. Her face was pale, and her breathing was quick.
He looked at Theodore and asked, “What happened, Theodore?”
“I was chatting with Ms. Garland earlier when she suddenly fainted.” The latter described the whole incident in detail. “Initially, she was only perspiring. Now, her heart is beating abnormally fast.”
Immediately, Curtis bent over to check on Rayna.
He was not a professional doctor, so he could not diagnose her condition. Naturally, he dared not examine her body recklessly. However, one thing he knew for sure was that she was experiencing great discomfort, judging by the beads of sweat on her forehead.
He felt a throbbing pain in his chest as though something was twisting his heart.
Overwhelmed with worry, he called Jeremy again and hurried him over to the lounge.
While he did not realize the anxiousness and frustration in his voice, they did not go unnoticed by Theodore, who glanced at him and pressed his lips together tightly.
Why did he decide to marry Jasmine if he’s so worried about Rayna? Confused thoughts ran through Theodore’s mind as he tried to make sense of Curtis’ reaction.
Amid the anxious wait consisting of Curtis checking on Rayna repeatedly, Jeremy finally arrived at the lounge.
Jeremy’s face immediately changed when he saw Rayna in that state.
With swift movements, he put on his gloves and started to inspect Rayna. In the meantime, he also instructed Curtis to prepare the medicine according to his prescription.
Once Curtis prepared the medicine and inserted it into the syringe, Jeremy injected it into Rayna’s arm.
Three minutes later, her breathing slowly stabilized to a steady rate, and color began to return to her face. Seeing that, Curtis heaved a sigh of relief.
