Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 165 It's true, she really loves Olivia

Sofia was unwilling to accept it. She had a good relationship with her cousin, and she was happy

after joining the Montague family's company, thanks to her relationship with her cousin and Raymond, she fit in smoothly with the Montague family.

However, ever since this Selena appeared, she was first reprimanded by Raymond, and she hadn't dared to call her cousin's husband by his first name again. She had also been scolded once. Raymond had never treated her like this before.

Sofia couldn't help but well up with tears. Even without explicitly complaining, her grievous appearance was enough to make everyone doubt Selena.

She didn't respond to Selena's words, and the atmosphere became slightly tense.

The higher-ups all looked at Selena, after all, she wasn't a well-known figure. Although she had some reputation among interior designers, she didn't have any clients in the upper echelons, hence, everyone saw her as a newcomer. But Sofia was different; she was Olivia's cousin, and Olivia was going to become the wife of the Montague family's CEO in the future.

For someone to come and protect Sofia at this moment would indirectly please Mr. Montague.

Therefore, someone with a cunning mind spoke up righteously.

"Which department are you from? When the doors opened a while ago, we all saw Miss Stone kneeling in front of you, and you didn't even lend a hand. Plus, getting to the top floor requires an appointment. Are you just like those women who always bother the receptionist and came up here secretly to see the CEO?"

Indeed, there had been women who quietly followed the top floor employees up before, but once they were found out, they were taken away by the police.

Who didn't know that Raymond himself hated this kind of harassment the most?

Upon hearing the questioning from the higher-ups, Sofia's lips curled, but her eyelids turned even redder, appearing as if she had suffered a great injustice.

Sofia didn't look bad herself, and with her crying, she wanted a man to hold her in his arms and comfort her.

However, because of her and Olivia's status, the male employees on the top floor hadn't dared to confess their feelings to her, but there were quite a few who secretly tried to show their good intentions.

Not to mention, in front of her were a group of higher-ups who loved protecting young girls like Sofia.

Compared to Sofia's vulnerability, Selena's calm and composed demeanor didn't attract men as much. Most men had a hero complex and wanted to protect women under their wings.

Selena looked at Raymond, who didn't seem to have any intention of resolving the situation for her.

It seemed she could only rely on herself.

"I personally made an appointment with Mr. Montague today."

She smiled lightly and took out her business card.

"I'm Selena from Citylight Studio. I previously handled the renovation of Mr. Montague's house and came here today to report on the progress. It was indeed my fault for not helping Miss Stone up in time." As she said this, she took out a tissue and placed it in front of Sofia.

"Miss Stone, please stop crying. Otherwise, everyone may think I've been bullying you."

This move made Sofia unable to continue pretending. Selena had already spoken so sincerely and clearly, and now she handed her a tissue. If Sofia refused and took the initiative to complain, Selena would definitely bring up the surveillance footage. If she accepted, it would mean that Selena was telling the truth and she was just scared by the shaking elevator. The higher-ups who had rushed to defend her in a hurry would become a laughing-stock.

Sofia was so angry that her face turned pale. If she had known that Selena would not only not be scared by the higher-ups, but also make a scene like this, she would not have pretended. But now she was in a difficult situation and could only choose to take the tissue.

"Thank you, Miss Selena," she said, each word coming out as if squeezed through her teeth, wishing she could tear Selena to pieces. But Selena was not affected by this hostility at all, and simply smiled, "You're welcome." The higher-up who had stood up for Sofia suddenly felt embarrassed and pretended that nothing had happened. He was annoyed by Sofia's talent for crying like she had been bullied, which made him look bad. Selena calmed down the situation and looked at Raymond. "Mr. Montague, aren't you coming in?"

Raymond didn't say a word, but cast a cold glance at Sofia. For some reason, Sofia felt nervous and quickly lowered her head, her eyes red, and walked out. Raymond entered, followed by the other high-level employees. Selena stepped aside, wondering why he didn't take the private elevator. Little did she know that the private elevator was under maintenance today and Raymond had to attend a social event. The atmosphere in the small elevator was somewhat tense.

Selena's gaze fell on Raymond's cuff. He had changed his cufflinks and now wore the silver-blue ones Olivia had just given him. Paired with his suit, they made him look even more unapproachable.

He really loved Olivia. Less than ten minutes after Olivia gave him the cufflinks, he couldn't wait to put them on.
