Chapter 590 Raymond, LetServe You The door of the private room swung open, and he breathed a sigh of relief. He was ready to deal with the intruder, but instead, he heard Olivia's voice. "Raymond?" Olivia uttered in disbelief.
Olivia caught a whiff of alcohol in the room and noticed Raymond's abnormal state. A glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes - it seemed like fate was giving her an opportunity.
She quickly took off her coat, revealing her graceful figure. "Raymond, you're not feeling well. Lethelp you out," she said.
As she approached, Raymond caught a different scent from Selena.
Seeing his lack of response, Olivia thought he was not rejecting her. She was about to kneel excitedly to serve him, but Raymond just leaned back, his tone indifferent. "Who let you chere?" Misunderstanding his tone, Olivia was about to move closer, but he pushed her away and said, "Answer me." Simultaneously, a bottle of alcohol was thrown out, the liquid splashing on the floor, mixed with shards, a chilling sight.
Olivia knelt down in fear, her face turning grim.
She dared not push Raymond further, as if he regained consciousness, the entire Stone family would be in jeopardy.

Raymond's face turned icy, and the air around him seemed to freeze. "If you don't answer me, the Stone family's three billion dollars will be at stake." Though his tone was light, the threat of bankrupting the Stone family loomed.
Olivia dared not make a move. "I received a text from a stranger saying you were in this room. I just cto try my luck. Please don't be angry." At that moment, Raymond understood.
The effects of the drug and his anger boiled inside him, surprisingly bringing him to a clearer state of mind.
No wonder Selena suddenly becso proactive, and no wonder she invited him out of the blue.
'So that's what she's planning,' Raymond thought.
He found it amusing, though his smile was chilling.
Olivia knelt beside him, feeling the weight of his silent pressure crushing her bones.
"Contact Penny and bring her here, Olivia. You have half an hour," Raymond said coldly.
Implicit in his words, if Selena didn't show up within that half-hour, the three billion dollars would still be in jeopardy.
Olivia's pupils constricted, disbelief evident in her eyes. 'At this critical moment, withright in front of him, I could be his antidote. Even if he leavesbruised and battered, I have no choice but to comply. Yet, he wants Penny, his wife.' Olivia's eyes brimmed with hatred. If she didn't need the three billion dollars, she would have thrown herself at him without hesitation.
But now, she dared not. She could only endure.
Trembling, tears streaming down her face, she felt a profound sense of humiliation.
Everyone said she was Raymond's first love, but at that moment, he didn't even spare her a glance. There was even a hint of disgust in his eyes.
It was too humiliating. Nothing was more degrading than seeing the person one loved needing another woman in front of her.
She cried as she tried to open the door, only to find it locked.
The private room could be locked from the outside, and this door was sealed shut.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA glint of hope shone in Olivia's eyes as she saw an opportunity. "Raymond, the room is locked, and I can't open it." Her voice was cautious, even as she began to undress. "I can really help, Raymond. Letserve you." But Raymond simply leaned back, his demeanor still regal. Without a closer look, one couldn't tell he was suppressing something.
"In half an hour, if she doesn't come, the Stone family will go bankrupt," Raymond said.
Unable to contain herself any longer, Olivia burst into tears. She wanted to scream to go/mad, but she couldn't let the Stone family go bankrupt.
She called Selena in tears, but Selena didn't pick up. She then called the pedon people to find Selena. "Bring Penny back to this room within Stone family's half an hour."
Fifteen minutes passed, and the person she sent outside gave her an update. "Miss Stone Penny's phone suddenly turned off, and the signal disappeared. No one knows where she went." Olivia froze, her face pale as she looked at Raymond. "My people can't find her. I'm truly sorry." The effects of the drug were too strong. Raymond was losing his grip on reality, feeling a searing pain all over his body.
Lowering his eyes, he called the people at Sky Gallery.
As the door of the private room was opened, he saw Olivia approaching again. "Get out," he uttered.
Olivia was startled and didn't dare to stay there and continue to make him angry.
Struggling to breathe, Raymond mustered his last strength and called Victor.
That night, Victor rushed him to the emergency room.
