Reclaiming Her Heart -
Chapter 287 I Don't Know
"Where did Selena go? Tell her to come down!"
Catherine was truly angry tonight, with a stern expression on her face.
If something happened to Raymond, Selena wouldn't be able to make up for it no matter what!
Fiona was also a bit afraid of Catherine. Sometimes, this person was quite unreasonable and not at all polite to Miss Fair. "Mrs. Montague, Miss Fair is outside."
Upon hearing this, Catherine's anger grew even stronger.
"She's still outside after getting married. Who knows if she's meeting other men? What time is it now? It's almost eleven! We don't know what she's been busy with all day. Raymond hasn't been home for three years, and we don't know if she's done anything to betray the Montague family. If it really comes to this, I'll make sure everyone in the Fair family knows the consequences of angering me!"
Fiona swallowed nervously, worried that this person would really blame Selena for Mr. Montague's allergies. After all, Mr. Montague developed the allergy outside and then came back to Ashbourne Manor. It clearly had nothing to do with Ashbourne Manor.
"Mrs. Montague, Miss Fair's dog hasn't been here during this time."
Fiona had to lie in order to defend Selena.
Catherine sneered, "Don't think I don't know whose side you're on. There's no benefit in trying to please Selena. Sooner or later, she will divorce Raymond. It's just that Grandpa's health is not good right now, which is why we pity her and let her stay in this house for a while longer. As a servant, do what a servant should do and stop playing tricks all day long."
Catherine sat down nearby. "Bring Selena back. I must see her tonight. Raymond must have developed an allergy because of her dog. That dog must be gotten rid of."
Fiona really liked Selena and also enjoyed her presence
Max, now hearing Catherine's words, also became a little angry. However, Catherine is right. She is just a servant and shouldn't meddle in the Montague family's affairs. She immediately called Selena. Selena is still at the veterinary hospital, and Max's surgery hasn't finished yet. The doctor just came in and said that the anesthesia hasn't worn off.
"Fiona."
When Fiona heard her voice, she lowered her voice. "Miss Fair, how is Max? I'm sorry, it's all my fault."
Selena rubbed her forehead with her hand and felt a little tired. "Max is still in surgery."
"Mrs. Montague has come and asked you to come back now. She said... she said to throw Max away because Mr. Montague had a severe allergy when he arrived at Ashbourne Manor just now."
Selena frowned. Even if Raymond is allergic, it should be because of Olivia's cat. What does it have to do with Max? Catherine must dislike her and is using the allergy as an excuse to target her. Her face turned grim.
"You tell Mrs. Montague that I'm not going back tonight. Besides, Raymond's allergy is because he accompanied Olivia to the veterinary hospital, not because of my Max. If she doesn't believe it, then there's nothing I can do."
Fiona could sense Selena's firm tone and knew that she was also angry. Selena does have a temper, but she has always been patient and accommodating.
"Miss Fair, why not come back for a while? I'll go to the hospital to see Max. Right now, Mr. Montague is upstairs with a fever, and Mrs. Montague is waiting downstairs..."
"Fiona, just ignore her words. You are Grandpa's person. Even if she gets angrier, she will only say hurtful things and won't dare to lay a hand on you."
Fiona found it amusing when she heard this. She wasn't worried about being physically hurt, but rather concerned about Selena's relationship with her mother-in-law. They can't actually end up divorcing, right? Grandpa would definitely be very sad. After hanging up the phone, she looked at Catherine.
"Mrs. Montague, Miss Fair is still busy with work. She said that Mr. Montague's allergy is because he accompanied Miss Stone to the veterinary hospital, not because of the dog hair at home."
Catherine was stunned. Raymond accompanied Olivia to the veterinary hospital? She originally wanted to introduce him to other socialite ladies in New York, but now she knows that he's allergic to dog hair, yet he still went to the hospital with Olivia. It seems that he can't let go of the bond they formed growing up together. But how did Selena replace out that Raymond went to the vet with Olivia?
"Veterinary hospital? That woman wouldn't be following Raymond, right?"
Catherine furrowed her brow and immediately sent a message to Selena.
"Don't think I don't know what you're up to. Stay away from Raymond. You two will divorce sooner or later. Even if you're rushing to offer yourself, Raymond won't want you." Her words were quite harsh.
When Selena saw this message, her face grew darker.
"Mrs. Montague, rest assured, I will definitely keep my distance from him."
Catherine smirked. It's better that way, otherwise, she wouldn't be courteous to the Fair family!
An hour later, Max's anesthesia wore off, and the doctor gave Selena instructions.
"This is to be applied on the wound. Remember to apply it three times a day. With the weather getting warmer now, we are concerned about infection."
Selena frowned. Besides dealing with her father's matters these past few days, she had to also handle Manhattan affairs. Additionally, she was waiting for updates on the investigation into Paddy from the police. She temporarily didn't have the energy to take care of Max.
Currently, Raymond was at Ashbourne Manor, so it was even less possible to send Max back.
