Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 174 Are you crazy?!

Raymond remained silent, locking his phone screen, as if he hadn't seen Carter's inquiry.

At this moment, Selena had no idea that her drawing had already been passed to Raymond himself.

After finishing the late-night snack brought by Lillian, she planned to go to sleep.

Max slept under the bed, occasionally twitching her ears.

Selena ran through her recent tasks in her mind and fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, after eating breakfast, she went to the construction site.

The workers were quick in their movements, probably because they had received instructions from Caterlington. This time, the workers were very efficient, and Selena only needed to be responsible for selecting the next materials and making some adjustments to the designs on site from time to time.

With the construction progress confirmed, she took out the list of materials again. Except for the sandalwood floor, from Ridgefield, almost all the other materials could be bought in the market. And with her network of businesses accumulated over the years, she could even get a good price.

Now, the sandalwood floor was a top priority. After finishing arrangements in New York, she still had to make a trip to Ridgefield.

As Selena was about to leave by car, she opened her phone and glanced at it. She didn't go to the Fair family last night, and they had called her several times, but this time she had to make her stance clear. Otherwise, the next time, her father would still make more demands.

Now that the second round of financing had been successful, and as long as the Fair family didn't act foolishly, they could continue to operate. It was completely unnecessary to provoke Raymond again. Selena didn't return the call. She put her phone down and was about to step on the gas, but right then someone knocked on her car window. It was Jane.

Last time she saw Jane, she had been caught with Mr. Wrigh,t by his wife. His wife was not one to be trifled with, and she spread the news about Jane in the studio. Jane's reputation took a nosedive and because of that, she hadn't been bothering Matthew lately.

Now, Jane was knocking on her car door, and her expression was very unpleasant. Was she looking for trouble?

Selena rolled down the car window with a nonchalant tone and asked, "What's the matter?"

Taking a deep breath, Jane put on a smile. "There's a meeting at the studio today, and my car broke down. Since I ran into you, could you give me a ride?" Selena frowned. She didn't have a good relationship with this person.

Why should she give her a ride?

Jane raised her chin. "Take a look at the work group. You and I are the only ones who haven't gone yet. Mr. Clark has something important to say this time, and you should also be there in person. Could you give me a ride on your way?" Selena glanced at the work group and indeed saw many people speaking.

She didn't like Jane. She was selfish and liked to hurt others with her words. However, if she didn't open the car door, knowing Jane's temperament, there would be a scene at the studio later, making the atmosphere tense again. Jane knew she agreed, opened the car door, and got in without much enthusiasm. She said, "Thanks, esteemed designer."

This remark was clearly sarcastic, but Selena pretended not to hear it.

As the car merged into traffic, Jane suddenly asked, "Mr. Wright's wife made my situation public. I suddenly remembered that you had been working with him for three years. You must have known his wife for a long time, right?" Selena clutched the steering wheel and didn't respond to this remark.

But Jane became excited. "So that night, you deliberately led me to say those things. His wife caught us, and I became the subject of ridicule!"

Mr. Wright's wife was not an easy person to deal with. She spread Jane's situation on social media, and it was shared by many people. Jane lost face completely.

Selena found it funny. "Did I force you to pursue Mr. Wright?"

If one chose to do so, they should have considered the consequences in advance.

What could a cheating man be? If one became the mistress, they should be prepared to endure being criticized.

"Selena! You bitch, what makes you any better? That night, I accompanied Mr. Wright. Weren't you also accompanying other wealthy individuals? You couldn't even walk properly after being messed with by the others at the party. Who do you think you are to judge me?"

Selena was purely hurt that night, walking in an unnatural way, different from Jane.

But in Jane's eyes, Selena was just a slut who randomly hooked up with people. Otherwise, how could she always get such good deals?

A trace of anger flashed in Selena's eyes. It was the first time she had seen someone who asked for a ride but ended up being so impolite.

"I'll park the car by the side of the road. You can walk there yourself."

Before the words had even finished, Jane snatched the steering wheel away.

"Are you crazy, Jane?!"

The car skidded heavily in the middle of the road and then crashed into another car coming from the opposite direction.

"Bang!"

Both cars started to emit smoke.

Jane continued to curse beside Selena, even shouting hysterically, just like a madwoman.

It was only then that Selena realized that hitching a ride was just an excuse. Jane had always wanted to snatch the steering wheel. Since getting into the car, she had already planned revenge. Fortunately, the sentence was cut off at the end.

The airbag popped up safely, and neither of them were injured. Selena was filled with anger, but she had to kick the car door open and check the other car across the street. When she saw Grace's face, her expression changed and she quickly forced open the slightly deformed car door.
