His Precious Love

Chapter 597

Chapter 597

Once the nanny had left with the baby, Rayna walked Ringo to the corner, where the latter promptly handed her a document envelope. “My reason for coming today isn't just to give the kid her present. It's also to give you this, Ms. Garland.”

With that, Rayna took out the sheets of paper from the envelope and glanced through them, only to suddenly freeze in her tracks.

“When Mr. Hamilton was stuck in Yartran while waiting for his visa application, Old Mr. Terblanc visited him. He told Mr. Hamilton that he had already made the will and paved the road for him,” Ringo explained. “As soon as Mr. Hamilton moved you to Pillere, he called me over and gave me the will for safekeeping. I was told to pass it to you only after his death. His lawyer has a copy of it too.”

Rayna found herself at a loss for words as she trembled.

“Ms. Garland, Mr. Cyrus Terblanc is also dead. If Terblanc Group were to fall into other people's hands, it'd undoubtedly be cleaned out within half a year. That's why Mr. Hamilton wanted to give it to you. He knew he could trust you,” Ringo added.

After a bout of silence, Rayna finally suppressed her grief and slid the documents back into the envelope. “Rest assured that I'll protect what's his. What about you? Where will you go from here?”

“I'll go wherever life takes me. I've served Mr. Hamilton for so long that his death still feels surreal.”

“Stay here, then,” Rayna said, smiling as she glanced at her baby in the nanny's arms. “After all, I've found a new boss for you and Emerald. The kid may be difficult to handle now, but it'd be better once she gets older. Would you like that?”

Upon hearing that, Ringo curled his lips into a smile. “Well, she's also a Hamilton. I'd love nothing more than to accept your offer.”

It'd feel like I'm working for Mr. Hamilton again.

With no time to waste, Rayna immediately followed Ringo to Yartran after throwing a welcome baby party for Xareni.

Since Rayna and Jefferson weren't married, it was no surprise that everyone in Terblanc Group was upset about the content of the will. Even the shareholders were against the arrangement and tried buying out her shares.

Now that Jefferson was out of the picture, the ownership battle between Arnaud, Rayna, and the rest of the Terblanc Group dragged on for two months. Curtis wanted to go over to help, but Rayna stopped him, leaving him with no choice but to send James in his stead.

After sixty-eight days of back-and-forth and having survived more than a dozen assassinations, Rayna finally got the other Terblanc Group members to throw in the towel. She made them sign an agreement, which allowed her to execute Jefferson's will and officially take over the company.

With all that settled, Rayna left Ringo to oversee Terblanc Group while she returned home with James.


Needless to say, Curtis jumped at the chance to pick them up.

Upon stepping out of the airport, Rayna's gaze instantly fell on the tall, handsome man standing by his car.

Despite dressing simply in a black coat and sunglasses, he still managed to attract several admiring glances from female passers-by.

Rayna quickly walked up to hug Curtis and wrapped a scarf around his neck. “I hate that you'll always look this good because you don't have to give birth. You're attracting so much unwanted attention!”

Curtis burst out laughing and kissed Rayna. However, he felt his heart ache when he saw how tired she was. “It's been hard on you.”

“If you love me, you should pray for me to age slowly,” Rayna muttered as she stepped into the car. “Make it so that people might mistake me for your daughter when we're out together.”

After joining her in the backseat, Curtis playfully pinched her cheeks. “Aren't you afraid your two daughters would get upset if they hear that?”

“Are you kidding? I'd be more than happy to be their sister!” Rayna exclaimed before kicking off her heels and resting her feet on him. “I've been wearing heels for the past two months to make myself look confident and poised. I don't even think I can feel my legs anymore. Rub my feet for me.”

“Sure,” Curtis instantly replied, giving Rayna a foot massage as he instructed James to drive slower.

James glanced at his sister through the rearview mirror and huffed, “She's only pretending, Curtis! Can't you tell? You should've seen how she fought with the others at the office. Judging by the speed she was moving around, there's no way her feet were aching.”

The next second, Rayna angrily picked up a cushion and threw it at James. “Can't I act coy around my husband? What's it to you? Follow up with Jeremy about the medicine if you have nothing better to do. You're getting on my nerves!”

With that, James frowned and remained silent for the rest of the journey.

“By the way, how are the kids? I've been away from them for more than two months. Will they not recognize me anymore?” Rayna asked.

“I'm sure they won't recognize you, but they'll warm up to you once you've spent more time with them,” Curtis reassured as he gently placed a cushion behind his wife. “I'll take you to the hospital tomorrow when you've rested enough.”

“Hospital? What for?”

“Jasmine woke up a month after you left for Yartran. She has since been transferred to the hospital in Norwal City.”

Rayna gasped in disbelief. “Really? Why didn't you tell me earlier?”

“Have you forgotten how busy you were in Yartran? Besides, with Jeremy and Theodore at the hospital, what do we have to worry about?”

Rayna punched him lightly and turned to James. “Forget about going home. Let's head to the hospital first. Otherwise, I won't be able to sleep tonight.”

Soon, the three of them arrived at the hospital.

Since Theodore was busy with work, he couldn't be at the hospital daily. Thankfully, Carl could, and Rayna caught him practicing Anglandurn with Jasmine when she walked into the ward.

Meanwhile, Jasmine sat in bed in her hospital gown, looking rosy-cheeked and happy.

Upon seeing Jasmine in the pink of health, Rayna heaved a sigh of relief and smiled. “Hello, Jasmine.”

“Rayna!” Jasmine said excitedly as she held the woman's hand. “You've been through so much, yet you still took such good care of Carl. I can't thank you enough.”

“Don't mention it. Carl's a good boy.”
