Payton was not embarrassed. He put down the glasses of wine on the table and asked, “Miss, do you mind if I sit down?” Rain shook her head, and then Payton pulled a chair and sat beside her.Payton looked at her and said, “I’m Payton Phillips, Miss. What is your name?” Rain smiled and replied, “Rain Stanton, Sir.” The young lady was as beautiful as a fairy.Rain took a glass of juice from the waiter and took a sip. Payton looked at her and said, “I haven’t seen you before, Miss Stanton. Are you from around here?”Rain shook her head and replied, “I am from Johannesburg. I came with a friend to attend the Gala.”Payton smiled broadly and said, “I am glad that you came, Miss Stanton. I haven’t seen anyone so gorgeous in my life. I like your beautiful eyes the most.”Rain smiled sweetly at him and replied, “Thank you, Mr Phillips. I am happy that I came too.” Payton whispered something in Rain’s ear and she giggled.Ophelia felt guilty for leaving Rain alone for such a long time. She was

A few minutes later, Leo Burton’s car stopped in front of Rain. He got out of the car, walked to the passenger side, and opened the door. Rain smiled and thanked him. Then Leo looked at her and asked, “Where should I drop you, Miss?”Rain spirits were so down, and she replied, “Please take me to the Stanton mansion, Leo.” Then they drove to Umhlanga Rocks in silence.Rain smiled brightly at the housekeeper and said, “Good day, Aunt Moira. How are you?” Aunt Moira took Rain’s hand and replied, “Good day, Miss Rain. All is well with us. How are you doing, Miss Rain?”Rain smiled and said, “Please prepare lunch for me, Auntie. I am starving.” Then she went to her bedroom to rest.Rain hadn’t told her brother about her marriage to Payton. That morning, she agreed to be Payton’s girlfriend, but to her surprise, Payton took her to Home Affairs to register their marriage. She was so moved that she cried.She decided to call her brother, but she was so nervous. She bit her lower lip, then she

Karen Sutton praised Rain in her heart for putting Gemma Fields in her place. Gemma wanted to say something to Rain, but Payton shot her a venomous glare, and she kept quiet.Jasper didn’t believe that a young girl was a surgeon. Since Rain had humiliated his girlfriend, he wanted her to pay him back tenfold. From today onwards, they were enemies.Jasper feigned a smile and asked, “Sister-in-law, don’t you want to join our hospital? I heard that there is a shortage of surgeons.”Rain furrowed her beautiful brows and replied, “Are you trying to tell me that in Durban there are no capable doctors who can fill the vacant posts, brother-in-law? Or your Human Resources Director is sleeping on the job.”Jasper didn’t know how to respond because he was lying through his teeth. He opened and closed his mouth, but nothing came forth.A few minutes later, the waiter brought the menu, then he took their orders and left the private room.Payton squeezed his wife’s hand gently and smiled at her. Ra

When Payton saw sadness in his wife’s eyes, he pulled her into a tight embrace and said, “It’s not that I am not happy about the child, my wife. It’s because the company is struggling, and I won’t be able to take care of you and our baby.Why don’t we abort the baby, Sweetheart? We are too young to be parents. I am not ready to have a child yet, Rain. Please do it for me.” Was it possible that Rain had been fooling around with other men behind his back? He didn’t want that child.Rain froze when she heard her husband’s words. She was overwhelmed with bitterness. She looked at her husband and replied, “I will never abort this baby, Payton. She is my gift from the Lord. Why don’t you divorce me, Payton?”Payton took the car keys, then he slammed the door with a loud bang and drove away. He went to the Carson Group.Rain sat on the bed and cried sorrowfully for a long time. She was so scared that her brother would be angry that she was pregnant so soon. However, he was so happy that he ca

A few days later, after President Stanton found out that his sister was pregnant, he bought a piece of land in Durban.He wanted to build a hotel for his sister. He decided to give the Phillips Group a helping hand since they were in the construction industry.He looked at his Executive Secretary, Jeremy Cooper, and said, “Please contact the Phillips Group and hand over the construction tender to them. Please offer them five billion rand to hire more construction workers and construction machinery.I don’t want my precious sister to stay in that cramped apartment. Hopefully, Payton will buy a mansion for my sister. Please make it anonymous. Don’t mention the Stanton Group.”Executive Secretary Cooper went to his office and immediately contacted Payton and said, “Hello, President Phillips. You are speaking to Jeremy Cooper.My president heard that you are looking for investors. He has decided to cooperate with your company.He is willing to invest five billion rand in your company. He w
