His Precious Love

Chapter 471

“I’m telling you the truth, miss.” The person in charge showed Rayna the inspection checklist as he continued, “We filed a report and requested for repairs the moment we found out. However, the technician said it couldn’t be repaired, so we put in a request to purchase a new one. The request is still pending approval from our superior.”

Rayna took the inspection checklist over and skimmed through it.

This person is telling the truth. They can’t purchase a new surveillance camera without approval from a superior. Could this really just be an accident?

“I’m really sorry! I didn’t see you standing in front! Are you hurt? Shall I have my husband take you to the hospital?” The pregnant woman continued to apologize.

“You think saying sorry is going to fix everything? If you were going to take the elevator, then why didn’t you watch where you were going? You need to be responsible for yourself as well as others! Of course, we need to get her examined at a hospital! I’ll make you both pay dearly if anything happens to my wife!” Carl yelled angrily.

The person in charge was just as shocked by Carl’s words as the married couple.

“Y-You two are…” the pregnant woman stammered while staring at Rayna.

“I’m pregnant too. He’s worried about my babies,” Rayna explained while pulling Carl behind her.

Since the surveillance camera was broken, she didn’t want to waste any more time arguing.

Rayna glanced at the pregnant woman’s tummy and saw her huge baby bump. As a fellow mother, she sympathized with the woman and said, “Since I’m not injured, we can skip the trip to the hospital and

forget about this.”

“You can’t just let them walk away like that, Ms. Rayna! She’s the one at fault here!” Carl protested.

“Forget it, Carl. Let’s go,” Rayna said.

Since Rayna had said so, Carl could only pout as he grabbed the bags and walked out of the place wordlessly.

The married couple continued to apologize to Rayna as they left the security room, going as far as offering to pay her some money as compensation.

Rayna shook her head and said with a smile, “It’s fine, really. Judging by the size of your tummy, I’d guess you’re due pretty soon, right? How about we add each other on social media? That way, I could consult you for advice on caring for the baby.”

The pregnant woman froze briefly before replying, “This is my first child, so I don’t know anything either.”

Rayna maintained her gentle tone as she pressed on, “That’s fine. We can just be friends, then. You look like a kind person, and I’d love to have you as a friend!”

Unsure of how to respond, the pregnant woman secretly gave her husband’s shirt a light tug.

The husband then stepped forward and said with a smile, “I limit her time on the phone to minimize her exposure to its radiation. How about you add me instead?”

“Sure thing. Here, go ahead and scan my QR code,” Rayna handed him her phone.

After adding each other, Rayna asked, “Have you two decided on the hospital to deliver the baby? I know a doctor from General Hospital. You could ask him for help when the time comes.”

“Thanks, but that won’t be necessary—”

Before the husband could finish his sentence, Rayna cut him off, “It’s fine! We’re all friends now, so we should look out for each other! Give me your number, and I’ll have that friend of mine help you two out.” She proceeded to tap open her phone’s call function and was so persistent that the husband couldn’t say anything.

The married couple exchanged conflicted glances.

Unable to decline Rayna’s kind offer, he had no choice but to give her his number.

Rayna flashed them a satisfied smile when she dialed it and saw his phone screen light up.

“Where do you two live? How about I give you two a ride home?” she asked.

“That won’t be necessary! We came here by car today, so I’ll be driving us home later. Anyway, just text me if you’re feeling unwell tomorrow or something. We’ll be on our way now!”

He then dragged his wife out of there before Rayna could say anything further.

Instead of going after them, Rayna pulled up the man’s social media page and quickly browsed through it.

Heh, looks like I’ve hit the jackpot!

After saving all of his pictures of scenery and food, Rayna took a screenshot of his social media account and phone number.

She wanted to get the man’s phone number in order to obtain more information on them, such as their identities and home address.

In order to not arouse their suspicion, she chose to get friendly with the pregnant woman first. After that, she mentioned having a doctor as a friend and used that as a reason to ask for his number.

Rayna then put her phone away and gave Lucky a pat on the head. “Thank you so much for your help today.”

Who would’ve thought Curtis’ dog would come in handy like this?

She saw Carl sulking on a bench when she left the room with Lucky.

“What’s the matter? Are you unhappy?” she asked while walking toward him.

“No, I’m not.” Carl hopped off the bench and picked up the bags.

Rayna offered to help carry it, but he refused to let her and continued stomping away while Rayna and Lucky followed closely behind.

They then rode the elevator down to the parking lot.

It wasn’t until they entered the car that Rayna explained, “It’s not that I don’t want to pursue that matter. The surveillance camera was broken, so there’s not much we could’ve done. Even if we did go to a hospital for an examination, the outcome would most likely be the same. If the doctor says I’m fine, they’ll be free of all responsibilities anyway.”

“Even so, we can’t just let them walk away like this! My mom told me that I should always hit back if someone dares bully me! Even if we don’t have sufficient evidence, we’d still have the upper hand in court! With all that pressure on them, it’s only a matter of time before they mess up!” Carl protested angrily.

“Now, now… Stop being mad at me, okay? I spent a lot of time chatting with them so I could get information from them,” Rayna said with a faint smile as she drove out of the parking lot.

“And then what? Lock them up?” Carl pressed on.

“No, Carl. With all that information, we’ll be able to investigate further and find out if it was an accident or a conspiracy,” Rayna explained.

She grew suspicious ever since she was told that the surveillance camera was broken.

“And what if it was an accident? Do we just let them off the hook?”

“Yes. She looks like she’s due soon. It’s common for her to bump into people sometimes.”

Carl was clearly disappointed when he heard that. “There was plenty of room back there. She clearly wasn’t watching where she was going,” he mumbled.

“All right, let’s just put this aside for now. I’ll make you your favorite grilled pork and tacos when we get back, okay?” Rayna comforted him.

“Ms. Rayna, aren’t you worried about my wife at all? I could’ve lost my wife if Lucky didn’t catch you by the shirt in time! How can you still think about eating after something like this happened?” Carl protested.

“So, are we not going to eat tonight?”

Carl let out a defiant snort. “Hmph! Of course we’ll eat! You going hungry is equivalent to my wife going hungry, after all.”

Rayna couldn’t stop laughing after hearing that.

Meanwhile, the pregnant woman and her husband had gloomy looks on their faces on the drive home.

“I can’t believe how lucky she was! She would’ve rolled right down the escalator if that dog wasn’t there to catch her in time!” the pregnant woman exclaimed angrily while peeling an orange.

Her husband let out a sigh as he replied, “There’s nothing we could’ve done. I suppose we won’t get paid now that we’ve messed it all up.”

“That’s fine. We already received one million in deposit anyway!” The pregnant woman then glanced at her husband and asked, “Say, didn’t she add you on social media? How about we find an opportunity to ask her out?”

“Do you even listen to yourself? The fact that she thought of checking the surveillance cameras first indicates that she’s very smart. She acted all friendly and asked for our social media and contact details so she could find out more about us!”

“Then delete her as soon as we get home. That way, she won’t be able to find out much about us. By the way, how was my acting earlier? Do you think she’ll suspect anything?” the pregnant woman exclaimed.
