Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 592 Seems Long Awaited

Selena cried and trembled all over, but Raymond was unusually rude.

'Help! Who will save me?' Selena thought helplessly, 'It really hurts! So humiliating... Who could have done this to me? Joseph? Or someone Jimmy knows? This cheap scent of perfume could never be from Raymond.' Tears surged, soaking the cloth covering her but Raymond turned her over, no longer looking at her face.

He didn't let go of her even when she passed out.

For two full days, no food or drink, just endless torment.

At first, she could still cry, but in the end, she just curled up, muscles tensing every time she felt someone approaching.

Everything was black before her eyes, and she had no idea how much time had passed.

Raymond calmed down before releasing her. He never once removed the cloth covering her eyes.

Afterward, Raymond bathed the unconscious Selena and had her taken back to the Rose Garden.

Selena woke up at 8 p.m., her body burning up.

She opened her eyes, seeing the familiar ceiling, feeling like she was drowning. She turned in fear, almost falling off the bed and spilling her guts.

Her phone was right beside her, showing a date that was two days past.

'A stranger had raped me for two days,' Selena realized.

She was contorted into various humiliating positions, yet she never once touched that man's body, not even knowing if he was tall or short, fat or thin. She was trembling all over, unable even to hold her phone.

Half an hour later, she trembled to dial Shelley's number with her fingertips.

Another half hour passed, and Shelley came to her.

Opening the door, seeing the marks spreading to Selena's ears, her pupils shrank sharply. She asked, "What happened?"

Selena suddenly cried, legs giving out, only daring to cry out when she saw a familiar face.

A trace of unease crossed Shelley's mind. "What's wrong?" she asked again.

Selena's lips trembled, and it took a while before she could speak a complete sentence. "I was raped for two days."

Shelley's hand paused, thinking she must have misheard.

She saw Selena cry for a while. Then Selena suddenly wiped away her tears, saying, "I need to go to the hospital for an examination, preferably a private one." Shelley couldn't say a word, knowing Selena was holding back.

'Two days? What had Selena been through these two days?' Shelley thought to herself. She didn't dare ask anything, and she just took Selena to a private hospital.

Several tests were done in a row. After all, the perpetrator was a stranger, and no one knew if he had any diseases. After such an incident, women generally come to the hospital immediately for a full check-up to rule out any sexually transmitted diseases.

It was better to discover early and take the blocking medicine sooner.

Selena sat in the hospital corridor, seeing Shelley bring a pack of contraceptive pills and a cup of warm water.

Without thinking, she grabbed them and swallowed five in a row, then started to vomit.

Shelley quickly patted her back and comforted her, saying, "No need to take so many. One is enough."

"I don't want to get pregnant, I don't want to." Selena's voice was still hoarse.

Shelley noticed the clear marks on Selena's wrist. "Selena," she called out, unable to bear it.

Selena, however, had a pale face with sweat on her forehead.

James had just passed away not long ago; the company still faced a lot of difficulties, and now she had to go through something like this. If it were an ordinary person, they would probably have collapsed long ago. But Selena remained silent, just vomiting.

Then her phone rang. It was Cassius calling, saying to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau tomorrow morning to pick up the divorce certificate. "Selena, did you hear that?" Cassius confirmed.

Selena quickly wiped away the tears on her face, forcing herself to reply. "I heard it. I'll go there tomorrow to wait for Mr. Montague." Cassius fell silent for a minute, then sighed and asked, "Is there really no turning back?"

Selena's heart ached, just pursing her lips, saying, "Cassius, it's impossible between him and me."

"Alright, I'll let Raymond know about this time as well. When you got the marriage certificate, you went alone; when getting the divorce certificate, at least go together. After all, you were once a family. Don't make it seem like you're enemies," Cassius said.

"I know," Selena replied.

After hanging up the phone, she leaned against the cold wall, her eyes swollen from crying these past two days.

Even though she had left the violated place, the feeling of being torn apart still lingered in her body. After an hour of waiting, the doctor came out to inform her. "No problems found, you're healthy." Selena's emotions, which had been holding on, finally relaxed a bit, and her tears continued to flow.

Shelley hugged her, patting her back, saying, "How about resting at home tomorrow and going for the divorce the day after?"

Selena shook her head. She had waited for this day for too long.

Shelley escorted her downstairs to Rose Garden, intending to go up with Selena, but Selena said, "I want to be alone for a while."

Not going to Ashbourne Manor was just to avoid Fiona's questions. She was afraid she wouldn't be able to hold back her emotions later.

She walked slowly, still feeling pain below.

She had taken fever-reducing medicine, but she was still feverish.

Stepping out of the elevator, she opened her room door and saw Raymond sitting on the sofa.

His posture was relaxed. He was dressed in a proper suit, with no accessories on his wrists. His wrist bones were stretched straight, and his fingertips held only a cigarette.

Seeing her return, he extinguished the cigarette in the ashtray.

It seemed like he had been waiting for a long time.
