Payton felt guilty when he saw his wife leaving their bedroom with a quilt. He rushed to her and hugged her from behind and said, “I am so sorry, my wife. It was my fault. Please don’t be angry with me.”Rain’s heart was overwhelmed with sadness. She fell in love with the wrong person. She returned to their bedroom, but she didn’t utter a word.She got under the covers and closed her eyes. Payton tried to coax her to no avail.The following week, it was Gemma’s birthday. Payton looked at his wife and asked, “What did you buy for Gemma as her birthday gift?”Rain lowered her head and replied, “Nothing. Gemma is not my friend, and she has never said a nice word to me. Why should I waste my money on her?”Payton looked at his wife and said, “Gemma is my friend. As my wife, you should tolerate her.”Rain laughed out loud, but there was no humour in it, and asked, “Have you ever tolerated my friends?” Payton didn’t even greet Leo and Ben. He told her that he didn’t like them, and he would n

When the Senior Surgeon, Dr Kevin Pitts, heard that Rain was in the hospital visiting Mr Carson, he went to the ICU. He smiled broadly at her and said, “Good day, Dr Stanton. Are you well?”Rain smiled at Dr Pitts and replied, “Good day, Sir. All is well with us. How are you doing?”Dr Pitts was grinning from ear to ear and said, “Last week, I touched base with your Senior Surgeon, Dr Selepe. I wanted to ask him to allow you to work in our hospital for a couple of months. However, he told me that you are on a sabbatical leave.I was so humbled to work with you last night, Dr Stanton. Do you mind visiting my office when you have time? I have a patient who is in a critical condition. I need your input, Dr Stanton.”Rain nodded her head and replied, “I will visit your patient with you, Dr Pitts. I would like to take a look at your patient’s medical file. Then we will take it from there.”Rain smiled sweetly at Maddox and said, “I will check your blood pressure when I come back, brother-in

Dr Sylvie Brands wasn’t surprised when she saw Maddox in the labour ward. She quickly conducted a physical examination and said, smiling, “Mrs Phillips, the baby is coming. Please push hard.”Rain pushed hard, and then the baby started crying. Dr Brands smiled brightly and said, “It’s a baby boy.” Then she put the baby on Rain’s chest. She was crying and laughing at the same time. Then Dr Brands put the baby on Maddox’s chest.Maddox kissed Rain on top of her head with tears streaming down his handsome face and said, “You were so brave, my dearest Rain. I am so proud of you.”Jasper looked at them with eyes full of suspicion. Was it possible that the father of Rain’s baby was Maddox?Jasper conducted the baby assessment. He also took the baby's hair to conduct the paternity test. Fortunately, the baby’s head was full of hair.After Jasper finished, he smiled brightly at Rain and said, “Congratulations are in order, Mrs Phillips.”When they were cleaning up Rain, Maddox left the labour

On their way to the Phillips family mansion, the silence was deafening in the car. His grandfather was so disappointed in his grandson. It was clear to him that Payton had mistreated his wife because his heart was still with the Pearson’s girl.Payton coughed and said, “I am so sorry, Grandpa. I thought Rain had cheated on me with Alexander.On the day that we moved out of the apartment, I found her in Alexander’s master bedroom, Grandpa.” The DNA test results came as a surprise to him.His grandfather shook his head and asked, “Did you tell your wife that you have bought the mansion for her, Payton?”He didn’t buy the mansion for Rain but for the love of his life, Zara Pearson. He looked at his grandfather in the rear-view mirror and replied, “Grandpa, I don’t love Rain. She is nothing but a replacement.”A surge of anger rose in his grandfather’s heart, and he said, “My grandson, I hope you will never regret. I don’t know what you have seen in Zara because she is arrogant. Didn’t she

Rain looked at Maddox and replied, “I will feel hurt and betrayed, Maddox, because I trust you with my life. Please promise me that you will never hide anything from me.”Maddox didn’t know how to respond because he had promised Payton not to tell Rain about Zara Pearson.When Rain saw Maddox’s face, she realized that he had been hiding something from her and said, “Maddox, you are more than a friend to me. I beg you, please tell me the truth. ”A hint of helplessness washed over Maddox, and he replied, “You shared the same eye colour with Payton’s first love, Zara Pearson. They loved each other so dearly. She dumped him and went abroad.”A surge of anger rose in Rain’s heart, and she said, “I am so disappointed in you, Maddox, for allowing my brother to use you as a knife to break up my marriage by spouting lies about my husband?I will forgive you just once because you were following my brother’s instructions. Please promise me that you will never mention this matter to me ever agai
