Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 222 It Should Be Sweet After all, this business deal involves fruit.

Raymond chuckled, "The appearance is not bad, it should be sweet?"

"That's right, everyone loves this kind of orange. It's the best seller during the Chinese New Year period."

The group of people walked towards the event. John, who was following behind Raymond, didn't say anything. After all, the CEO doesn't like to eat this kind of fruit. Even in New York, the fruits he eats are flown in from overseas by special company.

Selena helped Erin push the little cart, and when they were almost home, Erin couldn't hold it in anymore. "Selena, if you know that big boss, did I embarrass myself in front of him when you helped me push the cart just now?"

This little cart is so shabby, and they sell fruit on it. Megan always told her that she is too old to go out and embarrass herself. If Erin earned this small amount of money outside selling, Megan wouldn't want to bring her friends anywhere near her. Now Erin suddenly realized and felt sorry for Selena.

"Auntie, there's nothing embarrassing about earning money with your own hands. Mr. Montague is not that kind of person."

Erin said nothing.

The little cart twisted and turned into the alley, and before entering the door, Selena heard Jacob's voice from inside.

"Dad, I'm starving. Leave some for mom, but please let's eat first."

Then Megan's voice followed.

"Yes, every day she goes out so late, while the family doesn't even need the moneys, but she insists on going out and embarrassing us. I'm afraid to take my friends out, for fear of running into her." Erin and Selena stood outside and heard every word clearly.

Erin was worried that Selena would get angry at her later, so she quickly shouted inside, "Brian, come out quickly, Selena is back."

Brian was still busy with the hot dishes inside, but upon hearing this, he quickly walked out.

When Jacob heard that Selena had arrived, his whole body stiffened and he was reluctant to go out.

Megan snorted coldly, picked up her chopsticks and start eating alone.

Brian wanted to help Erin unload the fruits from the little cart, so he said to Selena, "Selena, why don't you go in and sit first. Your Aunt and I will be there in a moment."

Selena entered the house and saw that the sofa inside had been replaced, the old sofa was still in good condition and didn't need to be thrown away.

She looked at Jacob with a frown, "Did you change it?"

Where did Jacob get the money?

Jacob was a little afraid of Selena, after all, he lost face when he bumped into her in New York.

He didn't answer, waiting for Brian to enter the door, so Selena continued to ask.

"Uncle, the previous sofa was still usable, why did you change it?"

Brian was quick to respond, "It was Jacob's idea, he said it looked dirty. The new sofa is nice, and only cost seven hundred dollars."

"Did Jacob buy it?"

"Where would Jacob get the money? I borrowed it, and I'll pay it back later."

After the incident last time, Brian's family also had a bad relationship with their neighbors, and they were always made fun of when they left the house. When Selena heard this, she looked at Jacob with a gloomy face.

"You wanted to change it, why didn't you pay for it yourself? Instead, you let Uncle borrow money?"

"Why do you care about our family's affairs, Selena?! I already wrote a self-reflection letter, what more do you want?!"

Men always think that as long as they write a self-reflection letter, all is well.

Brian and Erin quickly chimed in.

"Selena, as long as Jacob is back and stays, we'll repay the money for the sofa. It's fine. Thank you for last time. Sit down and eat. I'll tidy up your room and get it ready for tonight."

As soon as the words were spoken, Megan rolled her eyes.

"What do you mean her room? That room is for me to use. I won't sleep with Jacob."

With a face full of disgust, it was obvious that the two of them hadn't completely reconciled.

Seeing these two argue, Selena felt annoyed and had no intention now of staying for dinner, at all.

"Aunt, I've already booked a hotel, and after driving all day, my stomach is not feeling well. I'm sorry but I won't be able to stay for dinner."

Erin and Brian quickly escorted her outside into the alley, to avoid the neighbors seeing her.

"Aunt and Uncle, you should have your own thoughts about your child and their spouse. Please save some retirement money for yourselves. Don't follow into the same trap as what happened last time. After the house is demolished, buy a retirement home and live a good life."

Brian felt embarrassed when she mentioned the incident. He blamed himself for being foolish, and now things were awkward with the neighbors.
