Reclaiming Her Heart -
Chapter 577 Intentionally Creating Conflict Between These Two Individuals
After Olivia returned to the Stone family, a bodyguard immediately came in to report to her.
"Miss Stone, I've found out that the one instigating them in the middle this time is that penny. Initially, this group of people refused to disclose, but the surrounding RVs and the people who deliver food every day are all paid by Penny." This matter was traceable.
Olivia's pupils shrank sharply, and her face instantly turned ashen. She couldn't help but think, 'Could it be Selena who pushed the Stone family to this point?'
She felt extremely humiliated.
Given that Olivia had suffered too many defeats at Selena's hands, she can't quite maintain her composure when matters involving the latter arise. Then she made another call to Raymond.
"Raymond, Penny is also involved in this matter. Maybe it's because of our conflict at the cruise banquet last time, but I didn't cause her any substantial harm. Can you ask her to let it go? The impact on the Stone family this time is really huge. The stock is still falling all the way. I might have offended her, but there's no need to push me to a dead end. Can you go talk to her?"
Olivia did it on purpose!
She intentionally created conflict between these two individuals.
Going by the three-month timeline, there were merely ten days left before the two were officially divorced.
Since Selena has always chosen to conceal her identity, she will definitely not reveal it at this critical time.
Olivia is gambling!
If Raymond can help her resolve this matter and completely sever the bond between Raymond and Selena, it would be a win-win situation.
Olivia sneered and smashed her makeup mirror angrily after hanging up the phone.
And when Raymond heard about Penny, his pen tip trembled.
As soon as the call ended, he called Selena.
But it kept showing "busy," and then Raymond realized that he had been blocked.
Since that day in the car when he heard her words, Raymond had been deliberately distancing himself from their relationship. He simply didn't want to admit that he really cared about Penny.
Yet, Raymond couldn't dismiss those occasional midnight stirrings, when he felt as if he could still detect her lingering fragrance. The memories of their passionate nights together were enough to set his blood on fire. Raymond got up, grabbed the car keys nearby, and went to the Rose Garden.
But Penny wasn't at the Rose Garden.
He waited until five in the evening, then had Carter call Penny, tricked her into revealing her address, which was at a cafe, and drove over.
Selena had just finished signing with Austin, who had been busy transferring companies recently and had a lot of procedures to handle, so he left first.
At this moment, Selena was sitting here alone, and James's body had been cremated. She really didn't want James to stay in this world in an unsightly way, and James himself probably felt embarrassed. Thinking of this, Selena's nose soured instantly.
Tomorrow is the day of her father's burial, and Selena must go to the cemetery.
She took a deep sip of strong coffee, the bitterness in her mouth spreading, feeling much better in her heart.
For five whole days, she hadn't dared to sleep, always busy with the affairs of the Eternal Growth Group or James's matters.
Now that everything was ready, Selena wanted to witness the fate of the Eternal Growth Group firsthand.
A shadow fell over Selena. She looked up and saw Raymond.
Raymond noticed the dark circles under her eyes and sat down opposite her.
The cafe had unknowingly cleared out, leaving only the two of them now.
The setting sun cast a slanting light on the glass of the cafe, and Raymond sat down facing this slanting light.
Raymond was quite picky about the taste of coffee, so he didn't drink it. He just looked at Selena.
Selena still held a cup in her hand, now almost empty, and asked him, "Do you have something to say?"
Her tone was unfamiliar, as if she didn't recognize him.
