Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 198 Mr. Montague Doesn't Like You

Selena truly had no idea that her father had called Mr. Montegue Sr.Hearing Alice talk about the phone call made her feel mentally exhausted. Now she heard that Raymond had gone to the Fair family that night and intimidated them, which would only make his nominal wife even more disgusted.

Her father always did things that embarrassed her. But Selena was well aware that if she expresses dissatisfaction with her father at this time, Alice would be the happiest person. "Hmm, I understand."

She crossed over Alice and was about to leave. Alice froze, unable to believe her reaction.

The relationship between this person and James has always been strained, so how could she not blame James for contacting Mr. Montague Sr. without permission?

Alice's physical condition was already not good, and waiting at the hotel since four o'clock in the morning, did not help. Now, seeing Selena's reaction, her emotions exploded instantly. "Sister, Mr. Montague was with another woman at this hotel last night."

She said this because she was convinced that Selena hadn't been with Raymond. But Selena's next words caused a turmoil in her chest.

"I know, last night I was in a room with him."

This sentence, though understated, pierced Alice like a sharp knife. Alice momentarily forgot to argue and stood in place dumbfounded. Seeing Selena about to leave, she anxiously spoke up. "How could you!"

Realizing that her tone was too harsh, she quickly softened it.

"How could you be in a room with Mr. Montague? Mr. Montague doesn't like you, sister. You don't have to degrade yourself for the Fair family. I know you're just trying not to rebel against Dad."

A hint of confusion appeared in Selena's eyes as she pretended not to understand.

Raymond and I are husband and wife, shouldn't I be in a room with him? And Dad's right when he says how many women in New York want to marry Raymond, but don't have the chance. Since I've seized the opportunity, I have to do everything to keep him, right?

Alice disliked every word she thought. Alice was so angry her cheeks flushed, and even her breathing trembled.

Meanwhile, Selena had gone to fetch food. Alice saw that she brought back portions for two people, making her expression even more unpleasant. But in order not to arouse suspicion from Selena, she still forced a smile. "The relationship between sister and Mr. Montague is really good."

Selena smiled lightly, a smile that seemed indifferent, as if saying it was only natural. The more relaxed Selena appeared, the more Alice felt her heart throbbing.

When Selena left, Alice slowly released her grip, her palm stained with blood. Her chest was filled with turmoil. She needed to come up with a plan, and she couldn't let Selena stay with Raymond any longer. "Things have been like this for far too long."

"(Cough, cough, cough.)"

Alice coughed harshly, her body trembling.

She wished she could cut Selena into pieces with her eyes, but the reality was that she couldn't do anything and could only watch Selena enter the elevator. Selena could share a bed and have breakfast with Raymond.

Meanwhile, Alice had to spend a lot of time staking out the places he often went to. Just a glimpse of him made her feel like the world was brighter.

How could Selena be so fortunate?

She felt so resentful.

Resentful of her useless body.

Upstairs, Selena entered the room carrying food.

Raymond was still reading his work documents, and the room's light was shining on him like a golden halo.

Selena's artist's radar pulsated. She really wanted to capture this scene through a painting.

Raymond's physique was the most perfectly proportioned body she had ever seen. She knew any artist would not be able to resist taking hundreds of photos of him, just to study and paint the figure. She placed the food on the coffee table and reached out to organize the documents.

Just as Raymond was about to grab the same file, their hands unexpectedly touched. Raymond's body tensed up, and he looked up at her.

Selena quickly let go, but her hurried movement caused the milk she had brought to spill directly onto the pile of documents, drenching them. Some even flowed onto the floor. The muscles between Raymond's eyebrows twitched, and his face turned completely dark.

Selena knew she had caused trouble and shrunk her shoulders in fear, awkwardly biting her lip.

With her appearance, when she bit her lip and held that lip pearl, she looked somewhat pitiful.

Raymond's originally intended words stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say a single word at this moment.
