“Because Mr. Xavier is in trouble too.”
The look on Wyatt’s face changed instantly as he snapped his head to the side, staring at Gabriel. “What do you mean by that?”
Gabriel walked up to Wyatt and whispered something in his ear.
Wyatt frowned in concern after hearing what he said.
He then shot Rayna a vicious glare before shoving her off. “I’ll come back for you when this is over, Rayna!”
Rayna didn’t see that coming and wasn’t able to steady herself in time, thus ending up crashing into her desk.
She gasped in pain as her tummy hit the sharp corner of the desk.
Gabriel ran up to her and held her steady. “Are you okay, Ms. Garland?”
As Rayna’s tummy was still pressing against the desk, Gabriel noticed her baby bump and was surprised.
After a brief pause, he came to a realization and stared wide-eyed at Rayna in shock. “M-Ms. Garland, are you…”
“I’m fine.” Rayna brushed his hand off and slowly straightened her back.
It took quite a while for the pain to go away.
She then tried to change the subject by asking, “Tell me what happened. How did this happen to Mr. Xavier and Jasmine?”
“Well… I’ll tell you more about it in the car. I need you to come with me to Sanders Group right away,” Gabriel replied solemnly, dropping the subject regarding her tummy.
“All right.” Rayna didn’t dare waste another second after realizing how serious the matter was.
As Ella was still in pain after being kicked by Wyatt earlier, Rayna had her take the rest of the day off. After taking care of things at work, she left her office with Gabriel.
Gabriel told her the full story in detail during their journey to Sanders Group.
Apparently, Theodore’s father was not injured at all. Emma made up that lie to trick Theodore into going to Xyperia. She had her husband help her out with this. Together, they captured Theodore the moment he arrived in Xyperia.
As Theodore didn’t bring a lot of his men with him on that trip, his father’s men had them greatly outnumbered. After drugging Theodore, Emma sent Noel’s daughter, Selena Young, over to him.
Sure enough, Selena was confirmed to be pregnant ten days ago.
Jasmine, who was heading over to Xyperia, had found out about it as well.
Emma cherished her precious grandchild and feared that Jasmine would hurt Selena because of the baby. Hence, Emma asked someone to take Jasmine out by faking a car accident.
Although Jasmine survived the incident, she was barely alive and was in critical condition at the hospital.
Due to the huge amount of information, it took Rayna quite a while to process all of it.
“Does Mrs. Xavier’s shamelessness know no bounds? That’s her son we’re talking about!” she asked after a long pause.
Gabriel let out a sigh from behind the wheel. “As you know, Mrs. Xavier has always hated Ms. Sanders for being an illegitimate daughter. Now that she has gotten back together with Mr. Xavier, there’s no way she’d just sit by and watch.”
“Even so, she shouldn’t have used such a horrible method! How could she send another woman to Mr. Xavier? That poor woman even got pregnant as a result!” Rayna gritted her teeth.
Jasmine probably had a mental breakdown when she found out about Selena’s pregnancy. It wasn’t easy for her to get back together with Mr. Xavier after five long years, and yet, he got another woman pregnant before they even had a chance to spend some quality time together. If Carl finds out about this…
