Reclaiming Her Heart -
Chapter 79 Can I consider it as helping my uncle?
When Raymond heard the voice, he frowned and looked up from a stack of documents, and sure enough, he saw Selena standing outside the car with a smile on her face. The scenery in Ridge-field was beautiful, and at this moment, only the upper half of her face was visible, her eyes seemingly reflecting the splendid sunlight outside. The tension in his grip on the documents tightened involuntarily. How did he keep running into her wherever he went?
However, Selena did not sense his unease and continued to speak. The moment was unusual, and Selena knocked on the window again, "Mr. Montague, can I come in?" Raymond lowered his gaze and spoke calmly, "Come in." Selena opened the car door and got in.
The sunlight outside was scorching, it was around noon now. As she opened the door, along with the heat wave rushing into the car, there was also a faint fragrance emanating from her body.
Brian, who was standing behind, saw Selena get into the car, and he felt relieved. He followed and got into the back seat of the second vehicle.
They had only driven about three kilometers when they saw a BMW ahead. It was the car Brian had been driving. Megan was standing at the front of the car, talking on the phone, and next to her was the thug sitting on a motorcycle. The moment the man saw Raymond's car, his eyes widened. "Megan, do you know how much this car costs?" Megan really didn't know, but this was the most beautiful car she had ever seen. "How much?" she asked. The man pretended to be mysterious and raised a finger. "One million?"
"Over ten million!" was the reply from the unsavory character.
Megan almost dropped her phone. Over ten million dollars for a car! She had never seen a car that expensive in her life. If she exchanged it for cash, how many houses could she buy? She wondered silently.
In shock, she immediately spotted Brian sitting in the back seat of the other car and quickly waved at him.
Brian had no choice but to signal the driver to stop.
"Dad, the car is out of gas. How could you forget to refuel before coming out? Now how am I going to drive back?"
An apologetic look crossed Brian's face. "Megan, wait a moment, let me call a colleague to come and refuel for you."
Megan scanned the car but didn't see Selena. Instantly, her mind went to the over ten million dollar car in front. Could Selena be in that car?
With a quick thought, Megan said urgently, "Is Selena in the car ahead? Give her a call and ask the driver to come back and pick me up."
Before Brian could respond, the other two executives frowned. "Mr. Montague is busy, don't waste his time."
"If Selena can ride, why can't I? Dad, quickly call her!" Megan's tone became somewhat impatient as she saw the car getting farther and farther away, urging Brian. Brian had no choice but to take out his phone and call Selena.
"Selena, your sister-in-law's car ran out of gas on the road, and our car can't accommodate anyone. Can you... talk to your boss and give Megan a ride?" Brian's tone was humble, even begging. Selena understood immediately that it was Megan's idea.
She had taken the car and left, and now that it was out of gas, they had to solve the problem.
"Uncle, I'm sorry, Mr. Montague is pressed for time and needs to go back to handle business. He doesn't have time to come back and pick up someone."
"Megan's friend has a motorcycle, I can have him bring Megan over. Please ask the boss to drive slower. Selena, I can't just leave your sister-in-law here. Just consider helping your uncle out."
Selena fell silent for a moment. She had come to Ridge-field in her last year of high school and had stayed at her uncle's house. Her uncle had always been good to her, and she appreciated it, but she couldn't agree to this.
She couldn't allow Megan's unbridled behavior to continue without consequences; it would inevitably lead to disaster. The car wasn't hers, and with Megan's unpredictable nature, who knows what she would do once she got into the car. Selena was about to speak when Megan's voice came through the phone. "Tell your boss next to you that you meddle too much. Don't forget that your whole family owes me.
If it weren't for your cousin going to your family's company, could he have run away? It's been so long and there has been no trace of him. I've been left alone in the house, subjected to the judgmental eyes of those around me." "This is all your fault!" Selena hung up the phone immediately. Megan's face changed when she heard the hang up. She looked at Brian angrily.
"She hung up on me. I can see that she feels no guilt at all! If she comes back again, don't let her stay in our house. She'll think we're beneath her!"
Brian felt extremely uncomfortable, not wanting to inconvenience the two important guests he had with him. He quickly got out of the car and said, "Megan, why don't you take my seat, and I'll walk back."
