"Everything will be fine…"
Those words somehow comforted Raine. She just hoped that Tyrone was right despite all of her worries right now.
Ron messaged her earlier, relaying the DNA test results a while ago. And even then, she still wanted to check it all personally. Keira Chan had contacted her as well, requesting her to meet up with her and Mara, but she had only replied telling her that she would think about it.
"What is it?" Tyrone asked. He could feel that something was bothering Raine at that moment.
"The DNA results showed that Mara and I are biologically related," Raine whispered. "I wanted to ask Father once he woke up, but I'm still hesitating. After all, what if my father wasn't aware of it too? I mean, this information might put Mara in a tight spot… She seems happy with where she is right now, and being involved with me might cause her misfortune," she couldn't help but voice out her worries to Tyrone.
"Won't your father let you go? If you want out from all this… being the Bloody-Eyed Hunter… the Princess of Moon Clan?"
"It's not that easy. I owe my father my life, and I have a vow to honor," Raine murmured. She sounded too conflicted.
"If Nathan Yue came back and took all those responsibilities… You will be free. Let him take over," Tyrone whispered.
Raine stared at him, "That will only happen if my father dies. Do you honestly think I will let him die?"
Tyrone didn't comment. He held the same stoic expression as he pondered on his words. After over a minute of silence, he spoke, "What's your plan?"
"Keep my father alive and fix things. As much as possible, I don't want Mara to get involved with me, so I'll meet her and Keira soon," Raine enumerated. "My father… It's best that he didn't know about it…"
Tyrone nodded. He truly understood Raine, to the point that he really felt bad for her. Aire was right. She had acted so tough and ruthless after all this time, but deep inside, he could tell how broken she was with all of the things she had constantly kept bottled up inside her. Even so, she remained strong, trying her best to do all that she could do to solve everything her way.
"How about you rest with Aire? Get enough sleep. Come," Tyrone said as he carried her in his arms.
Raine chuckled, "Hey, I'm not a kid. I'm capable of walking, so why bother carrying me?"
"I told you, I'm hell-bent on pampering you to no end. Stop complaining, okay? Just receive everything that I throw at you," Tyrone snorted.
Gently putting her to bed next to Aire, he kissed her forehead and whispered, "Go sleep and relax. I'll wake you two up once lunch is ready," Tyrone said with a beautiful smile on his face. It was like a fresh breath of air as always as Raine ended up smiling back with a nod.
Oh, how she wanted to open up to him… However, she was still restraining herself too hard for her own good.
Laying on her bed, she closed her eyes and tried to relax like Tryone said. She was far too exhausted. Not just physically but emotionally and mentally as well.
Time went on, and Tyrone woke the two ladies for lunch right on time. After which, the two immediately went back to sleep. After a few hours of travel, the plane was finally about to land. Both Raine and Aire woke up at the ready as the Pilot's announcement droned off from the intercom.
"Did you have a good sleep, Mommy?" Aire asked with a broad smile on her face.
Raine nodded, "Yes, Dear. How about you?"
"Me too, Mommy. Let's go out and see what Daddy's doing," Aire said, pulling her mother out from the bed. They then went out and saw Tyrone with a serious look on his face while he was on his laptop.
"You're working?" Raine asked.
"Yeah, I'm done now," Tyrone answered, closing his laptop. "The plane is landing. Sit down and buckle up on your seats…" Tyrone said, pulling the two to their seats.
The plane landed in country D at around late afternoon. As planned, Raine went straight to Yang Globals Hospital, not wasting any more time during her stay since she still had to fly to Plumeria Island next.
"Go and play with Aire in the park nearby. I won't take long," Raine instructed before going out of the car and entering Yang Globals hospital.
Tyrone nodded, watching from the car as she entered the hospital before proceeding to the park with Aire.
"Daddy, you look so worried. Mommy can manage everything and you will-"
"Stop, Aire. I told you to be careful with your words and make sure not to cause any alterations to the future. I can't afford to see you facing the consequences in the future!" Tyrone reminded.
So Aire quickly sealed her lips. If her father found out how she already succeeded in marking her mate behind his back then he would definitely get mad.
Meanwhile, Raine walked in the hallways when a mischievous smile curved her lips, her attention peaking as she passed through Doctor Rui Dee's office.
"Should you have some fun, Raine? Let's mess with our Mr. Meddling doctor before going to the laboratory, shall we?" she whispered to herself with a grin. Rui was like an ice breaker to her now. She loved teasing and playing pranks on him with Xander, but then she guessed, Rui would have to endure her alone since Xander was hiding at Plumeria Island.
She was about to walk towards Rui's office when Dr. Gong spotted her. "Dr. Yao!"
"Oh, good afternoon, Dr. Gong. I was about to see the COO before going to your office next to extend my thanks for the recommendations…"
"When do you plan to start working on that island? I still couldn't understand why you would choose that place," Dr. Gong commented.
"Hmm… I needed some fresh air, Dr. Gong. Working in Plumeria would be good for me mentally. You see, I really needed a decent change in scenery, and that island seems like a good area to unwind, as well as to reset," Raine explained. "Anyway, thank you again for taking care of me. I'll start with work tomorrow morning. I'll be flying there this evening," she said with a lovely smile. Plumeria Island had asked Yang Global hospitals for recommendations, and Raine asked Dr. Gong about it, knowing how the Island had contacted Yang Globals hospital about available doctors.
"Wow, that's quite fast. But anyway, good luck, Dr. Yao. I'm sure things will be alright. You have better opportunities ahead of you. Who knows? You might even meet someone interesting there."
Raine smiled before excusing herself to proceed to Rui's office. She shook her head at Dr. Gong's words. Everyone in the hospital threw the same look at her, thinking how she must be so heartbroken now that Dr. Xander Yang was happily married to another great doctor.. Her flirtatious acting with Xander, along with how she looked interested in him was probably top-notch that she was receiving that 'what a pity' look from the male employees at Yang Global hospital, as well as all those 'she deserves it' look from the female employees.
