Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 601 How Does He Have the Nerve to Say He Likes You She felt a wave of discomfort in her heart, thinking, 'It has nothing to do with you.' Penny: [Yes, it's very warm, Mr. Montague, good night.] Raymond saw this message and was so angry that his fingertips paused for a moment.

After replying to this message, Selena turned off her phone and went straight back to Ashbourne Manor.

Despite the two-hour delay, Selena had a very restful sleep once she lay down on the bed in the master bedroom. While Raymond didn't get any sleep all night.

The next morning, Selena went to the company, and after handling the morning's business, she still called William. William was still in hospital at this time, and a hint of comfort appeared in his eyes when he saw her call. "Selena." As soon as he called out her name, he coughed.

Selena quickly apologized, "Grandpa, I'm sorry." Previously, she had been giving William hope that he would soon have a great-grandchild, but she and Raymond divorced so quickly.

"It's not your fault. I'll have the butler send you a check later as compensation. You should accept it." "Grandpa, I've already taken enough from the Montague family. Taking more would be too greedy." William understood her character. In sways, she was a bit like Raymond.

He sighed, "Then when can we have a meal together? Let's invite Raymond too. Don't make it seem like we're enemies, okay?" "Okay," Selena replied.

After a few more pleasantries, Selena hung up the phone and rubbed her temples.

At this moment, Ann pushed the door open and cin.

"Miss Fair, we got news from Steven. His current mistress has already sold two houses, and Steven has also mortgaged his house. They owe tens of millions of dollars, and the loan sharks are expected to cknocking today." A look of surprise crossed Selena's eyes. In just over three months, they had squandered so much money. Ann seemed to see her doubt and explained, "The woman's two houses were ill-gotten gains that involved gambling. Initially, she bet $10,000, and we returned $500,000 to her. Then she pulled Steven in, and we returned up to $20 million to them. They were too greedy and borrowed another $20 million from loan sharks, hoping to make a one-tprofit." But obviously, they lost all the $20 million they won and still owed the loan sharks $20 million.

With interest piling up, the $20 million principal now had an estimated interest of nearly $60 million. That's how terrifying loan sharks are.

They were just too greedy.

Next, they would be forced to hide like rats by the loan sharks.

That was what they deserved.

"Ann, there's no need to keep an eye on Steven. Loan sharks are ruthless; they will have a tough time." Ann nodded and placed the documents that needed to be reviewed in the afternoon on Selena's desk.

Her top priority now was to quickly develop S.M. Otherwise, she still wouldn't have the ability to investigate James' biological daughter. Being so busy, she completely forgot about Raymond.

In the evening, Shelley cto see her, saying that she wanted to have dinner together.

Selena still felt a bit embarrassed about what happened the day before.

After the two sat in Shelley's villa, she chose to be honest.

She mentioned that the man was Raymond and also explained that the man she had previously been involved with was also Raymond. Shelley was stunned.

After Selena finished speaking, Shelley fell silent.

A few minutes later, she caught on. "So you and Raymond have already slept together before? This the treated you like that, was it for fun?" But her pain at that twas real, so it wasn't accurate to say it was for fun.

Selena explained the incident that she had drugged Raymond.

Because there were so many things, it took an hour to explain everything clearly.

Shelley drank two glasses of wine before sorting out these matters.

"You kept such a big thing from me! So what now, you two are divorced?" "Yes." "Raymond still doesn't know you're his wife?" "Yes." "He likes you? Otherwise, why would he sleep with you?" Selena frowned and replied with Raymond's exact words. "He said it was just because it felt good." "That bastard! How could he say such a thing?!" 'That's notRaymond,' Shelley thought.

Selena also felt aggrieved and angry, and couldn't help but pick up a glass of wine.

"He said he liked me. I think he's just sick!"

"Selena, if you dare to agree to him, I'll cut ties with you immediately. When your hand was injured, he took Victor away if anything had happened to your hand back then, your whole life would have been ruined. What right does he have to say he likes you?" Selena downed the wine in her glass. This was the first tshe had confided in someone since James' death.

And it was about her private matters with Raymond.

"I won't like him. You don't know, he..." At this point, she fell silent.

Shelley patted her shoulder. "I understand. Raymond does have a good appearance and family background. If you just want a bed partner, that's fine. But if you get involved, he could easily ruin you."

Selena didn't want to talk about him anymore. "What about you? Is Philip's cousin ready for the surgery? It's been delayed for months. If this continues, not even the best experts can save her, right?" Shelley's face suddenly turned worse, and she sighed.

"Philip has been staying in the hospital with her for the last few months. She seems to be very dependent on him. The experts are getting impatient. I've spent a lot of money to keep them. The decision has to be made within half a month at the latest. She's pitiful, but at least I don't have to take care of her in the hospital. I just need to spend more money."
