Dear sweetheart novel (Rayna and Julian) novel Chapter 552

It was as though death loomed over the operating room. Everyone waiting at the entrance still hadn’t returned to their senses.

Out of the blue, a flock of reporters rushed into the corridor and surrounded Rayna and the others in seconds.

With their cameras and microphones aimed inches away from Rayna and the other’s faces, they asked, “I heard Mr. Lopez was injured and is currently being treated in the emergency room, Mr. Faymon. Is he in this operating room?”

A reporter shoved their microphone toward Rayna and inquired, “I heard the one who assaulted Mr. Lopez was Bianca’s sister, Ms. Garland. According to my sources, you have a very close relationship with her, so I hope you can answer a question. Did she attack Mr. Lopez to avenge her sister?”

“Do you know anything about this matter, Ms. Garland?” another reporter questioned.

A third reporter inquired, “Are Justin’s and his friends’ deaths related to Bianca’s sister?”

The flashing lights of the cameras were blinding Rayna.

In response, she held her hand up to block the lights and turned away, ignoring the reporters.

Upon snapping back to reality, Kristie and the assistant pushed the reporters away.

However, there were too many reporters, so their efforts were futile.

The reporters continued to interrogate Rayna. “Are you staying quiet because you already knew Bianca’s sister was a murderer and tried to cover up for her? I heard she ran to the port after she attacked Mr. Lopez in hopes of escaping the country, but she leaped into the sea and committed suicide instead.”

Rayna raised her head upon hearing that and asked, “What did you say?”

Seeing that Rayna was talking to them, the reporter seized the opportunity to question, “Do you really not know, or are you pretending not to know, Ms. Garland? The police are investigating a suicide case at the port right now. Because of that, no ships dare to leave right now. Some passengers on those ships mentioned they recognized the woman who committed suicide. They said she was the woman seen together with Mr. Lopez, probably Bianca’s sister. Did she kill herself because she felt guilty for murdering Mr. Lopez?”

“I don’t know what you all are talking about.” Rayna’s hands were trembling. It was apparent she couldn’t keep her cool anymore. “I don’t know who Bianca’s sister is! Please leave!”

I don’t know where the reporters got their news from, but I need to verify whether they’re telling the truth or lying. Since Jessica escaped in a hurry, she likely would’ve headed to the port to leave the country on a ship. However, I refuse to believe she killed herself! The more she tried to leave, the more the reporters refused to let her go.

When one reporter with sharp eyes noticed her unusually loose clothes and the bump hiding underneath, they yelled, “Are you pregnant, Ms. Garland?”

They even pointed their camera at her tummy.

The instant the other reporters heard that, they immediately directed their attention to her abdomen.

Then, upon noticing her obvious bump, they interrogated her, asking her when she got pregnant and whose child she was bearing.

Rayna felt her head spinning as she was bombarded with the reporters’ questions.

Also, she was having difficulty breathing because there wasn’t enough space for fresh air to pass through the tightly packed reporters.

Curtis glowered when he noticed her face paling. After his patience with the reporters ran out, he pushed them aside and carried her in his arms.

Then he glared at the annoying reporters and exclaimed, “Make way!”

He spoke so coldly and fiercely that the reporters felt chills running down their spines. They didn’t even have the courage to meet his eyes as they shut up and stepped aside.

When that happened, fresh air was finally able to reach Rayna. Moments later, she looked a little better.

Instead of rushing to leave, he turned to Kristie. “Keep calling Jeremy and urge him to reach here soon. Call Gabriel to come here and help out too.”

Then he turned to Wyatt’s assistant. “Confiscate all the reporters’ communication devices. They aren’t allowed to bring anything but themselves and their clothes out of this building.”

The assistant promptly lowered his head. “You can count on me, Mr. Faymon!”

A reporter protested, “There are so many of us here. Can you shut all of us up?”
