Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 95 To Ashbourne Manor

Raymond felt frustrated but remained calm on the surface. "I know." Catherine, who was standing nearby, heard this but couldn't refute him due to the old master's poor health. Once Raymond walked out of the living room, she chased after him. "Raymond, are you really going to see that James?"

Raymond paused his steps, now standing in the Montague family garden, where the old master couldn't hear their conversation from the living room. He lowered his eyes slightly, lips pressed lightly, and his features concealed a sharp coldness.

"No, I'm not going."

Catherine breathed a sigh of relief, sounding disdainful. "I saw James during the day, he was full of energy, not at all like someone who is sick. I think he's just causing trouble while your grandfather is away. Don't let them fool you." "That's their trick. If you really go and see, it means falling into their trap. Taking advantage of Mr. Montague Senior's poor health is simply unbearable." "Mom, I know."

After saying that, he was about to leave, and Catherine added a sentence.

"I had someone send your things to Ashbourne Manor. I'm worried that your grandfather might suddenly decide to inspect and you've seen his physical condition. Try not to upset him. If he really wants to go to Ashbourne Manor, you should go along, just for show.

After all, Selena is sleeping in the guest room, farthest from your master bedroom. I've also reminded her, I believe she won't dare to try anything else."

Catherine's tone was full of annoyance when mentioning the Fair family.

"Raymond, that Selena does indeed have some charm. She looks like she's adept at seducing men."

Although Raymond didn't like Selena's personality, he hadn't heard of her getting close to other men in recent years, so he didn't comment on Catherine's words.

Catherine was afraid of talking too much and annoying people, so she sighed.

"Mom should never have separated you and Olivia. Since she decided to come back, you two should be good to each other. You also know, ever since your older brother passed away, you're all I have left. I only hope you live well."

As soon as the deceased older brother was mentioned, a chill ran through Raymond's body, but his face quickly turned cold like a snowy morning, freezing over. His jaw lifted slightly and his voice turned icy.

"If it weren't for my older brother's passing, you wouldn't pay so much attention to me, Mom. I'm not a substitute for my older brother. It's impossible for me to listen to you and let you manipulate me." Catherine's complexion instantly turned as pale as paper. Her fingertips slowly curled, almost embedding into her palm. Her lips trembled, and after several attempts, she finally spoke with a reddened eyes. "Raymond, is that how you think of Mom? I'm doing all this for your own good."

A cold smile appeared on Raymond's thin lips. "If it weren't for your 'good,' my brother probably wouldn't have had an accident."

Catherine almost fainted on the spot. Her breathing trembled, but she couldn't utter a complete sentence. Raymond didn't want to upset her too much either, so he softened his tone. "Go inside, I'm leaving."

After saying that, he briskly left the old mansion. When he returned to the car, John was already waiting for him inside. He caught a glimpse of Raymond's expression in the rearview mirror, which wasn't too good, and spoke up. "President, are we going back to the hotel?"

Raymond had been staying in a hotel recently, and he raised his fingertip to rub his brow.

"Tomorrow, bring some gifts and go visit James in the hospital."

"Is that what the old man requested?"

"Yes."

John didn't say anything further. He was about to drive to the hotel when he heard Raymond say, "Go to Ashbourne Manor."

Grandfather's health was very poor, and talks of Selena even during meals.

As Selena mentioned, he worried that she would suddenly get the urge to visit Ashbourne Manor tomorrow morning. Since she was going to act, she naturally had to eliminate any possibility of being exposed.
