Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 232 White Moonlight and Vermilion Mole

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere became somewhat tense at the scene. Raymond held his cup and took a sip of tea in a nonchalant manner. Selena, on the other hand, was momentarily taken aback by the question. However, she quickly regained her composure, lowered her gaze, and spoke in a calm tone. "Hmm, well, it's not exactly a wild man. I just didn't go home last night, and my husband called me."

As she said these words, she turned her head to look at Rosalind and smiled. This was the first time Rosalind had heard about Selena being married, and for a moment, she felt a bit embarrassed, thinking her previous actions towards Selena had been somewhat ridiculous.

She coughed lightly and heard Harrison speak at this moment. "Rosa, you should apologize to her. Can you just say whatever you want? It's only because Penny has a good temper and doesn't take offense."

Rosalind didn't mean to target Selena this time and quickly apologized sincerely. "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were married."

If she had known that Selena was already married, she wouldn't have deliberately targeted her yesterday.

"You got married at such a young age, your husband must be very outstanding, right?" Selena smiled, seemingly fond of her spouse.

"Yes, in everyone's heart, he is naturally the most outstanding." Rosalind was young and didn't know how to leave room for others.

"Which means he's not the most outstanding in your heart, right?" Selena simply smiled and didn't answer.

Raymond, sitting beside them, kept his head down and absently traced the rim of his cup, as if he hadn't been paying attention to their conversation.

Rosalind didn't want to make things difficult for Selena any further and her smile became more genuine. "I understand now, just like the saying goes, white moonlight and a vermilion mole. Your husband is the vermilion mole, and you must have had your share of white moonlight in the past."

Harrison finally couldn't hold back and reprimanded, "You talk too much every day. Your endless chatter will drive anyone crazy. Penny, sorry, she's been spoiled by me." Selena looked up and smiled calmly at Harrison. "Miss Rosalind is just frank."

She didn't say anything further and didn't answer Rosalind's question, because Rosalind continued to bother Raymond. However, Raymond's aura became much colder. When they finished their meal and were about to leave, Selena received a call from her aunt, which seemed hesitant and clearly indicated a problem.

"Aunt, what's wrong?" Selena's intuition immediately told her it had something to do with Jacob, and her brows couldn't help but furrow. "Yes, I'm coming back today."

Erin hesitated for a moment on the other end before sighing, "I didn't want to bother you, but there's nothing I can do about it. Your cousin got into a fight with someone and sent them to the hospital. Our whole family is currently trapped in the house and can't leave. The other party has more people..."

Selena couldn't help but burst into laughter upon hearing this, but she couldn't do anything since it was her elders who were involved.

"Why did Jacob get into a fight with someone? And where is he?"

Erin glanced at Jacob, who was smoking in the corner, and spoke in a lower voice.

"Your cousin is smoking, Megan is still outside and hasn't come back, and I can't reach Selena either. I'm at a loss, Selena."

As soon as she finished speaking, there were shouts and curses from outside, and the neighbors gathered around to watch the show.

Erin carefully covered her phone, her attitude submissive.

Selena took a deep breath.

"Auntie, let's talk when I get there. I'll probably arrive in about two hours. Don't engage in any conflicts with that family. Did you call the police?"

"We did, but your cousin got into a fight with the leader's son, so..."

Selena felt her blood pressure rising, and her lips twitched.

"Let's talk when I come back."

Just as she hung up the phone, she heard footsteps behind her and caught a glimpse of Raymond walking past her, heading straight for the black car in front of them. His aura was icy.

Colder than any other time before.
