She had imagined many ways how they would reunite one day, but none of them had involved Railer lying in a hospital bed with serious injuries.
The boy would have been in much worse shape if she hadn't saved him earlier.
"How have you been for the past five years, Rai?" Chantelle's eyes were filled with tears as she thought about all the suffering her son had gone through.
She knew Daniel wasn't a responsible father, and Kate wouldn't be kind to him either.
That explained why, despite being so young, Railer couldn't speak. It seemed they hadn't paid much attention to him, which was why he had fallen down the hill.
Chantelle grimaced, sensing that something bad was about to happen.
She quickly called Calvin and ordered, "Find out why the child fell down the hill at the cemetery today. I need to know if Kate was behind it!"
Knowing how important the task was, Calvin responded immediately, "Yes, Ms. Chantelle. I'll look into it right away."
After the call, Chantelle turned her attention back to Railer.
As she carefully examined his injuries, she promised to make Kate pay if she was responsible for the boy's suffering.
Daniel and Kane soon arrived at the Wilson residence, where they were greeted by Railer's longtime doctor, Philip Collins, and Kate.
Kate was shocked to see that the little boy was alive and unharmed. She couldn't help but think, I thought this was the perfect chance to get rid of him quietly. All my efforts have been wasted.
Why did my plan fail? Where did I go wrong for this little rascal to escape death?
Daniel handed Kane over to Philip and said, "Something amazing happened to Rai. He can speak now. Please give him a full check-up."
Everyone was surprised by the news.
Philip's eyes widened in disbelief as he asked, "Are you serious?"
He had been trying to help Railer speak for five years, but he had failed. No matter how skilled he was, he couldn't cure him.
But after he had been gone for a day, the boy was suddenly cured.
Kane muttered reluctantly, "Y-Yeah!"
He had no choice but to go along with the story, pretending he had finally recovered. He was confident he could convince the doctor that he was Railer.
Eager to understand the reason behind Kane's sudden recovery, Philip quickly carried the boy upstairs for a medical check-up.
As Kane rested his head on Philip's shoulder, he felt a pair of sharp eyes watching him.
When he looked over, he saw a young, beautiful woman staring at him coldly.
Kane thought, She's definitely a bad woman. Who is she? Did my hateful dad marry her? Is she my stepmom?
The living room of the Wilson residence was just as impressive as the house, with polished hardwood floors, a high ceiling, and sunlight streaming through the glass windows, making the space feel lively.
Daniel sat on the couch, crossing his legs.
His presence became even more powerful when he took off his black coat and rolled up the sleeves of his white shirt.
Kate sat next to him, feeling anxious. She hadn't expected Railer to return unharmed and able to speak. The boy knows too many of my dark secrets. He might even know I'm responsible for what happened at the cemetery. I can't just sit here. He might reveal everything!
Kate pretended to be worried about the boy and asked, "What happened to Rai, Daniel? Who was the woman who took him?"
She bit her lip, her eyes starting to tear up as she added, "What did she do to Rai? How did he learn to speak in just one day? This is strange. We can't just let her go."
Daniel's patience wore thin with Kate's constant questions. He closed his eyes and snapped, "I know what to do. It's late. You should go home and rest."
Still worried the boy might reveal the truth, Kate decided it was best to stay for the night. "Can I stay here tonight, Daniel? I'm worried about Rai."
Besides keeping an eye on Railer, Kate also wanted to spend more time with Daniel.
They were about to get married, but he hadn't even held her hand once, and after the incident with the boy, he became even colder toward her.
Daniel was tired of dealing with Kate's persistent behavior. He looked at her and growled, "Go home!"
Kate could tell that Daniel was about to lose his temper, so she quickly obeyed and left the Wilson residence.
Once in her car, her worried expression turned into anger.
She threw her bag on the seat and snapped at her assistant, Allen Morris. "What's going on? Didn't you say the boy was thrown down the hill? Why does he look fine?"
Not only did Railer look fine, but now he could speak! He's like a ticking time bomb. If he reveals my secrets, all my efforts will be wasted.
Allen was also confused by Railer's return. "Calm down, Ms. Kate. There's something strange going on. Our men confirmed that the boy was pushed down the hill. I also found out that the mysterious woman had nothing to do with rescuing him."
"How is that possible? Hurry up and figure this out!" Kate yelled.
"Yes!" Allen replied. After a brief pause, he added, "There's something else, Ms. Kate."
She snapped irritably, "What now?"
Allen hesitated before saying, "The organizers of the charity dinner have blacklisted you from future events. The news is all over the websites, and it's trending on social media."
Kate fumed with anger as she grabbed her tablet and started scrolling through the trending topics on social media.
Breaking news! Easthan's so-called charitable princess, Kate Bently, was exposed as a fraud!
Uncover the truth about Kate Bently's real identity!
The liar, Kate Bently, has been banned from charity events!
Kate Bently has been removed from the charity event's invitee list!
When Kate read the harsh comments online, anger boiled up inside her. She shouted, "I want to know who's behind this scheme right now!"
Her hands trembled, but it was fear, not rage.
Deep down, she knew she was guilty of everything they accused her of.
She had used Wesley's name for charity work, gaining the title of "Easthan's charitable princess," building a following and earning the Wilson family's favor.
Despite her public acts of charity, Kate didn't care about helping others.
In fact, she believed that ordinary people deserved to suffer and that helping them was a waste of her time.
"Don't worry, Ms. Kate. I've already sent people to figure out who's behind this mess," Allen said, trying to calm her.
His words helped Kate regain her composure.
She glared at him and ordered, "Contact the charity dinner organizers and ask them to put my name back on the guest list. I have to attend that event."
Kate had made a deal with Daniel that they would get married once she became the Global Ambassador for Philanthropy.
She had spent years persuading him to agree to the marriage, and she wouldn't let anything stop her from becoming part of the Wilson family.
I'll get rid of anyone who tries to stand in my way. They'll end up like the old man and Chantelle.
