Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 290 President Has a Special Treatment Towards Her

Raymond was still running a slight fever today, but the rash on his body had disappeared. His face was extremely cold, and Lillian, who stood beside him, was still waiting for his reply.

Raymond didn't say anything and walked forward, entering the elevator. Lillian felt embarrassed and quickly returned to her own workstation.

Inside the elevator, John noticed that Raymond's cheeks were still a bit red from the fever, so he asked, "Sir, maybe you should go back and rest for a while." Raymond had a fever all night, and he looked tired at the moment. He rubbed his forehead with his hand, unable to hold back any longer.

"If Selena calls me later, you can handle the Rose Garden matter."

The meeting was going to be long, and John wouldn't participate for the time being. He would stay outside.

Raymond's phone would be left in the office, and even if he brought it in, it would be on silent mode because this overseas acquisition meeting was crucial.

The Montague family's business was always like this, either acquiring or on the path to an acquisition. John could also guess that the CEO had some special feelings towards Miss Fair, although it was subtle. "Understood." Raymond nodded, leaving his phone in the office, and followed the executives into the meeting room.

However, after he sat down, what came to his mind was the video he saw last time.

The woman in the video was cursing, but Selena told him it was their neighbor doing renovations. A smile flickered in his eyes.

It's really brazen to lie like that. Selena didn't leave directly from Rose Garden. Instead, she went to Lauren's building.

She had already inquired with the security guard on the first floor. Lauren was out running a karaoke bar business, and her husband was home today.

Selena knocked on the door, and a middle-aged man, with a somewhat sinister appearance and a negative impression, answered.

"Hello, are you Lauren's husband?" The man nodded and glanced up and down at Selena, smiling slyly.

"So, you're the new girl Lauren found lately? Have you started working yet? Are you still a virgin?" Selena furrowed her brow and took a step back.

The man quickly approached, looking anxious. "Come in quickly. I'll try to finish in ten minutes so it won't delay your work."

Selena almost laughed in anger. She thought Lauren's husband would keep an eye on her, but this man was even more outrageous than Lauren herself. No wonder Lauren had the audacity to openly replace men outside. But Selena grasped the key point.

"Work? Are you talking about working at the karaoke bar?" The man sneered. "Since you're someone Lauren brought, stop pretending to be innocent. There were a few others who came here willingly before, they just wanted a higher salary, sleep with me, and then Lauren would give them a raise. Hurry up!"

His hand reached out, and Selena quickly stepped back. The man narrowed his eyes, finally realizing that something was not right, his expression turned fierce.

"You're not a hostess from the karaoke bar?"

But Selena had already entered the elevator first. The person chasing her was kicked out immediately! Her heart was pounding, but she felt relieved when she saw the elevator slowly descending.

Once she reached the first floor, she first found the security guard patrolling the area to ensure her safety. Then, she called the police to report the illicit transactions involving Lauren's karaoke bar.

The man who had just chased her realized he had revealed too much information. Selena hurriedly left Rose Garden and only felt relieved after getting in her car.

Her palms were sweaty, and she felt fortunate that she had reacted quickly. Otherwise, she didn't know what would have happened if that man had dragged her into the room. She had been too careless, underestimating the risks brought by Lauren.

Selena wiped the cold sweat off her forehead with a tissue and quickly drove to the hospital.

Two hours later, the police entered Rose Garden and directly searched Lauren's house.

However, Selena's man, realizing he had leaked the information and failed to catch Selena, had fled in advance.

Lauren was handcuffed, her face pale, devoid of her former arrogance.

When the police stormed into her karaoke bar, they caught men and women in the middle of a transaction, leaving Lauren with no room for argument.

Lauren got into the police car and still didn't understand how her business, which had been ongoing for so long, had suddenly been exposed.

But she would never replace out.

When Selena returned to Rose Garden from the hospital, she heard people discussing Lauren's situation all around her.

She called the janitor to clean up the trash outside her door and joined the homeowners' group.

She explained to everyone about her grievances with Lauren.

It was most advantageous to clarify things at this moment, especially since Lauren was already in jail, and news about the karaoke bar had spread throughout the neighborhood.

"She came after me because I reported her karaoke bar. She threw garbage outside my room and spread rumors about my personal life. I graduated from Harvard University and have a legitimate job. I hope these rumors stop among the wise."

Harvard University was the most prestigious institution in the country. Many parents considered it the ultimate goal for their children's education.

Between someone in jail and a high-achieving Harvard University graduate, anyone would know whom to believe.

When Lillian saw how the homeowners' group went from dislike and exclusion to flattery, she was so furious that she felt like vomiting blood.
