Dear Sweetheart Chapter 5

Rayna’s heart continued thumping even after she exited the hotel.
It wasn’t until the cold breeze struck her cheeks that she finally got a grip on herself.
I actually slept with Curtis Faymon! I’m not dreaming. This is real! He’s actually Curtis Faymon! Do I have a death wish?
Rayna swatted her own head, then pulled out a hundred from her pocket and hailed a taxi.
Forget it. I’ll head home first and figure this out later.
Right before she entered her house, Rayna made sure that there were no marks on her that would give her away.
The moment she stepped in, she saw Rolanda having breakfast at the dining table.
“Mom,” she greeted in a gentle tone.

“The nerve of you to come back here!” Recalling how Rayna had talked back to her on the phone the day before, Rolanda was furious to see her. “Get a divorce! Divorce my son at once!”
Faced with Rolanda’s resentment and desire for her to leave the Faymon family, Rayna gradually clenched her fists, her face dark.
She was well aware of her humble family background and the fact that she had married up. Nonetheless, she had been working hard in life and was now a senior interpreter in the translation department of Faymon Group. She had a decent career and was capable of taking care of herself.
Yet, Rolanda simply looked down on her. Ever since Rayna married into the Faymon family, she had been nagging her incessantly. When she saw that Rayna still wasn’t pregnant after a year, her animosity intensified to the extent that she accused Rayna of being barren in front of their relatives.
She would often introduce her friends’ daughters to Julian in front of Rayna as well.
For the sake of their family and her love for Julian, Rayna had been enduring it all and did not hold a grudge against Rolanda. In fact, she would give the money she earned to the family. Unfortunately, Julian had now cheated on her.
After reminding herself to bear with it, Rayna took a deep breath and answered, “Mom, I didn’t miss the doctor’s appointment on purpose. I was just too caught up with work. As for what I said to you yesterday, it was just my frustration at work talking.”
However, the unconvinced Rolanda insisted on the divorce, saying, “Don’t call me Mom. You’re no daughter-in-law of mine. If you can’t bear any children, you should just divorce my son!”
“Mom, I feel bad too for not getting pregnant after a year,” Rayna said apologetically, holding Rolanda’s arm. “Don’t worry. If I still can’t get pregnant this time, I… I’ll divorce Julian and not hold him back.”
The scowl on Rolanda’s face disappeared when she heard that.
Then she glanced at Rayna’s stomach. “Rayna, if I don’t see any progress soon, I will not tolerate your presence any longer. When the time comes, you’ll have to divorce Julian!”
Rayna forced a smile, but deep down, she was crushed.
Julian did not care about her, while Rolanda simply treated her as a tool to produce grandchildren for her.
