His Precious Love Chapter 218

Chapter 218 Unknowing Reunion 2

“You’re smart. I’m surprised you could come up with this idea.” Rayna gave him a thumbs-up before raining on his parade. “However, there’ll be a lot of people when Mr. Faymon marries your mother. The security will be tight, and strangers won’t be allowed in. Moreover, doing that will hurt your mother’s reputation.”

“What then?” Carl rested his cheek on his palm and frowned. “I can’t possibly watch my mother marry him, right? What about this? I’ll make a fuss when they marry. I’ll say I’m Mr. Faymon’s illegitimate child!”

Rayna’s brows twitched. She dared not imagine the chaotic scene that would ensue after the boy’s declaration. “Have you forgotten about how your mother doesn’t allow you to appear outside?”

Carl sighed. “I wish Daddy’s back. If he comes back, everything will be resolved. I miss him too.”

Rayna pursed her lips.

She desperately wished she could tell him that his father was right by his side, but who was she to tell that secret to him?

“Rayna.”

Right then, Rayna heard someone calling her. When she lifted her head, she saw Theodore entering the restaurant, his expression far darker than it usually was.

“Quick! Put on your mask! Do it now!” Rayna whispered to Carl, her heart nearly leaping out of her chest. Right as Carl put on his mask, Theodore reached their table.

“Perfect timing. I was about to call you,” Rayna said.

“Have you lost your mind?” Theodore snarled as he hunched over. “I told you this is a private contract, and you told everyone about it?”

Not knowing what Theodore was going on about, Rayna drew her brows together and snapped, “Mr. Xavier, you were the one who went back on your words! Your mother came for a coffee with me an hour ago, saying that she knew about the contract and that she wanted to matchmake us.”

She then showed Theodore her reddened wrist. “She even said she brought a gift for me and instantly forced the bracelet on my wrist. Look at how red my wrist became just to get that bracelet off!”

The gaze in Theodore’s eyes changed when he glanced at her wrist. “You weren’t the one to tell my mother about it?”

“Did you think I was the one to tell your mother about the contract?” Rayna asked as she realized what was going on. After rolling her eyes, she continued, “You’re involved in this contract too. I’d say you were the one who told your mother about it!”

“She went through my things, and…” Theodore tossed the phone to Rayna. “She instructed the reporters to hide outside the cafe.”

Rayna then watched him clicked the video.

As it turned out, the video was her meeting with Emma in the cafe an hour ago. In the video, she could see how Emma put on the bracelet for her with a wide smile on her face, as if Emma adored her.

“My goodness, your mother is a scheming woman!” Everyone in the country must have seen this by now, Rayna angrily thought as her hands shook.

And I was wondering why Emma had a hundred-and-eighty-degree turn. So, she was putting on a show for the reporters! What the heck? She’s too crafty!

“’A poor but vain village girl trying to marry into the Xavier family’? What in the world are they talking about?” The more Rayna read, the more she was rendered speechless by the reporters’ writing. “It’s such a waste for them to be reporters at this point.”

After switching off the phone, Rayna grabbed Theodore’s sleeve and started walking toward the door. She hissed, “No. I can’t just let this be. Regardless of everything, I’m a woman of dignity. I’m going to clarify things with a press conference!”

However, Theodore remained rooted to his spot. “The video wasn’t even blurry. How are you going to clear this up with them? They’ll think that this is part of your plan to make me propose to you.”

“Then what am I supposed to do? Just let them slander me?”

“I’ll deal with this,” Theodore icily said. “Don’t meet my mother if she asks to see you again.”

Rayna scoffed.

There’s no way I’m going to meet your mother again.

“Mister, if you don’t want to marry this lady, why don’t you think about marrying my mommy?” At one point in time, Carl had jumped off his chair and was raising his head to look at Theodore.

Carl had a typical child’s voice, but he did not sound like he was joking at all. The boy’s eyes were bright as he said, “My mommy’s pretty and capable. You won’t lose out if you marry her, and you’ll even have a son. Won’t that be great?”

“Why are you always wearing a mask?” Theodore abruptly asked as he reached out to pull off Carl’s mask, finding it strange to feel a sense of familiarity when he looked into the boy’s eyes.

Nevertheless, Rayna was quicker to pull Carl behind her and flashed a smile at Theodore. “That’s because his immune system is weak, and there are plenty of germs in the air. That’s why he’s always

wearing a mask.

Theodore narrowed his eyes. Wanting to see the boy, he demanded, “This is a restaurant, and there aren’t that many germs here. Move aside.”

“He can wear it if he wants to. Do you have a problem with it?” Rayna uttered. “Get someone to give birth to your kid if you like children this much. Stop eyeing other people’s kids.”

Carl popped his head out from Rayna’s back and hastily said, “You don’t need to get someone else to give birth to your kid. Just marry my mommy! I can be a free son for you. I’m a smart boy.”

“Smart, my foot!” Rayna smacked the back of his head and pretended to angrily say, “You can’t say things like these even if you don’t like the fact that your daddy’s an athlete. You’ll end up getting punished if you keep this up.”

Hearing that, Carl lowered his head miserably.

He would rather have his mother marry the man standing before him than have her marry the vice CEO. Moreover, this man looks the same as me. Maybe we’re relatives.

Theodore was displeased with how haughty Rayna was acting. “Use your words, not your fists, with the boy.”

Rayna was speechless to hear that.

They really are father and son, huh? His heart is aching just because I hit Carl on the head.

“Well then, Mr. Xavier, I’ll leave the news to you.” Rayna did not wish to linger there any longer. “I need to bring the boy back as quickly as possible.”

“Where does he live? I’ll send you there.”

“No, no, it’s fine.” Rayna squeezed a smile onto her face. “We’ll hail a taxi—”

“I said I’m sending you,” Theodore interrupted before standing in her way. It was as though he would not move aside unless Rayna agreed to it.

After exiting the restaurant, Rayna suddenly said, “I just recalled that I have something I haven’t bought yet, so I’ll need to take a trip to that mall. Mr. Xavier, we’ll part ways here.”

Theodore insisted, “I’ll help you take the things.”

Rayna pressed her lips tightly together.

F*ck!

Having run out of excuses, Rayna had no choice but to let Theodore tag along. She and Carl walked in front of him, and once they were a distance away from Theodore, Rayna whispered to Carl, “What were you doing earlier? Have you gone mad?”

“I don’t want Mr. Faymon to marry my mommy,” Curtis said as he shot a glance at Theodore. “This man looks much like me. Maybe we’re family.”

You’re right about that.

Then, in a tone of admiration, Carl continued, “Don’t you think that this mister’s a handsome man? Look at those muscles and the way he carries himself. My mommy’s going to get a good deal if she marries him.”

“Does your mother know how fast you are to come to conclusions?”

However, Carl’s answer was, “It’s fine. My mommy values appearances too. I’m certain the windows shook when she screamed at the sight of the handsome men on the sports channel.”Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Rayna nearly dropped her jaw at his response.

Right then, Theodore suddenly said, “Hey, boy.”

Carl halted in his tracks and turned to look at him. “What’s the matter, mister?”

“Your shoelace is untied,” Theodore replied before walking over to crouch down before him and tying his shoelace.

The sight of his broad back was a sign of security.
