Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 399 Otherwise, how could she sell it for that price?

Olivia had long known about his attitude toward this wife, and a hint of contempt flashed in her eyes. That woman, she wasn't even worthy of a name. She pretended to give kind advice. "But if she divorces, it would be difficult for her to remarry, after all, she was kicked out by the Montague family."

Raymond's face showed a touch of impatience as he headed straight to the waiting car outside.

"It's none of my concern."

Olivia followed him into the car, hoping to display her magnanimity.

"Will you give her a share of the property then?"

Raymond sneered.

"Doesn't the Fair family already have enough benefits from the Montague family?"

Saving their company and letting them stay at Ashbourne Manor, that woman should count herself lucky that Grandpa likes her; otherwise, how could she afford to pay for such a place? Whenever she is mentioned, his expression turns sour.

First of all, he is being pressured by Mr. Montague Sr. He's been out of the country for two days, and Grandpa called three times, asking why he didn't bring Selena along.

Even before boarding the plane back, Grandpa kept asking if he had a fight with Selena.

Raymond dislikes being questioned about personal matters. If he hadn't heard Grandpa coughing, he would have hung up the phone directly.

No matter who it is, being pushed too hard creates a rebellious mindset.

He was just about to ask John to drive to the hotel. And then Grandpa's call came again.

"Raymond, tomorrow is that girl Selena's birthday, remember to prepare a birthday gift."

Raymond's face instantly darkened, and he took a deep breath.

"Grandpa, I understand."

Mr. Montague Sr is satisfied with his obedience. Recently, his health has deteriorated again, to the point where he couldn't even go out through this door; otherwise, he could have taken a trip to Ashbourne Manor. "Selena had a rough childhood, so be sure to put some thought into your gift."

"Okay."

After hanging up the phone, Raymond looked up and instructed John.

"Prepare a birthday gift and send it to the Fair family tomorrow."

John thought for a moment and couldn't help asking, "Should we investigate Miss Fair's preferences?"

Annoyance flashed across Raymond's face. "No need, just get something expensive."

Olivia, who was nearby, didn't feel happy upon hearing this, as if her own money was being spent. She couldn't help but speak up.

"Raymond, don't bother John. I happen to be going shopping later, so I'll choose for you. Girls understand better what girls like, so you won't get scolded by Mr. Montague Sr later on."

Raymond is rather casual when it comes to his wife, so he just nodded.

Olivia was almost laughing smugly. After parting ways with Raymond, she had someone print out a divorce agreement.

She prepared a gift box and put the divorce agreement in it. She handed it to the courier and instructed them to deliver it to the Fair family tomorrow evening.

*****

As for Selena, if Shelley hadn't messaged her, she would have almost forgotten that her birthday was coming up.

James used to accompany her on her birthday, but ever since James married Beatrice, she often forgets.

"Selena, my dad wants me to accompany him on a trip abroad tomorrow, probably to meet his good friend's son. I won't be able to spend your birthday with you, so tonight I'll pick you up and take you to the Sky Club. Start getting ready, I'm on my way to pick you up."

Selena was too tired to bother with makeup when she saw the message.

She felt like all her energy had been drained by Raymond. But she didn't want to dampen Shelley's excitement. Shelley was the only person who had been there for her on her birthdays all these years, carefully preparing gifts and surprising her on the day itself.

Selena forced herself to perk up and started doing her makeup.

Although it had been two days, the marks on her neck were still visible, and she used concealer to cover them repeatedly.

Shelley sent another message. "Remember to wear the white camisole I bought for you!"

Selena found it amusing and without hesitation put on the outfit and even sent a photo. "Yes, princess."

It was an inside joke they had during their school days.

Despite the vast Harper family fortune, Shelley was the only daughter, and they affectionately called her the little diamond princess, not at all pretentious.

As Selena got into Shelley's car, she noticed that Raymond had also sent a message. "Feeling better?"

Selena's face turned pale with fear, pretending she hadn't seen it. At least let her have a week of rest.

Shelley drove her own supercar and did a stunning makeup. They parked the car at the Sky Club, and Shelley casually tossed the keys to the valet. Selena followed closely behind, unable to resist giving advice.

"Just so you know, no getting drunk tonight." Shelley was about to respond when she turned her head and saw Raymond not too far behind, accompanied by Olivia.

She narrowed her eyes. "Isn't that your decorative husband and his mistress who's itching to take your place?"

As soon as Selena saw Raymond, she instinctively grabbed Shelley and quickly walked inside.
