Reclaiming Her Heart -
Chapter 295 Mr. Brings a Woman Back
Olivia glanced at Fiona, her eyebrows furrowed.
"You've been sitting here for so long, and nobody even brought you a glass of water? Is Ashbourne Manor lacking in service tonight?"
This was an indirect reprimand to Fiona, the maid who didn't perform her duties effectively.
Fiona instinctively looked at Raymond. Raymond had his arm around Olivia, as he was still running a fever and his cheeks were slightly pale, but it didn't diminish his aristocratic demeanor. He sat down beside Olivia, who stuck to him closely.
Fiona was furious but helpless.
As she entered the kitchen to make coffee, she discreetly sent a message to Selena.
"Miss Fair, you should come back to Ashbourne Manor and see for yourself. Mr. Montague has brought a woman back, and they seem very close."
Selena, who was now at Rose Garden, had no interest in Ashbourne Manor's affairs.
Fiona brewed the coffee and brought it over, placing it on the coffee table.
Olivia glanced up at the stairs and smiled. "Raymond, is your wife not at home?"
Raymond was unaware of his wife's whereabouts, so he looked at Fiona.
Fiona quickly explained, "Miss Fair is still out and hasn't returned yet."
Olivia pretended to be surprised, covering her mouth. "When I called your aunt, she said your wife is always out at night and she doesn't know what she's doing. Since you're married, she should come home earlier, right, Raymond? And especially since you're sick, she should take better care of you."
Bringing up his wife made Raymond's expression even worse.
"I don't need her to take care of me."
She's not here, and he's perfectly fine without her.
Hearing this, Olivia almost laughed, but managed to restrain herself.
Fiona couldn't bear to watch any longer and quickly found an excuse to leave, leaving only Raymond and Olivia in the hall.
Raymond was still thinking about the meeting data from the morning when he heard her say again, "I ran into Selena on my way here. She lost my cat, Raymond. You know how much I love my two cats. I'm restless now, constantly worried about little Mimi."
Mentioning his wife, Raymond's reaction was either cold or indifferent.
Faint, either disgusted.
But when it came to this designer, his eyelashes trembled slightly.
"Selena lost your cat?"
Olivia thought that he was venting his anger at her and nodded slightly.
"The maid said Selena wanted to pet the cat, but it took the opportunity to run away. I gave her two hours to replace the cat for me. If she can't replace it, I might have to stay in the hospital for a while."
She didn't directly suggest that Raymond fire Selena, as it would displease Raymond.
Raymond didn't say anything. How did she get into trouble again?
Has the matter at Rose Garden been resolved?
She didn't call him, so it should be resolved, right?
This time, Olivia got involved again, and Selena probably can't resolve it.
In that case, she had to call him.
He lowered his eyelashes, his expression calm.
Olivia thought that he didn't care about Selena either and felt delighted, but when she thought about what the receptionist had said, she became somewhat uneasy.
"Raymond, when I went to the Montague family before, I overheard others talking... saying they saw you coming out of Selena's room."
There was no change in Raymond's face.
"She's Carter's friend, and Carter asked me to escort her. She was sick and almost passed out, so I had to take her home."
Olivia sighed with relief. It seemed that she had a good chance.
She looked affectionately at Raymond, already wanting to get close to him. However, the doorbell rang at that moment. She thought it was Raymond's wife returning, so she immediately held his arm tightly. This way, that woman would know her position in this house.
Fiona opened the door and her eyes brightened when she saw Grandpa standing outside. She quickly stepped aside.
Mr. Montague Sr leaned on a cane and immediately noticed the two sitting closely together on the sofa.
He snorted coldly with anger, but his good manners prevented him from immediately getting angry.
Olivia, on the other hand, was scared when she saw him. She quickly let go of Raymond and moved a few steps away, her face turning pale.
Why would Mr. Montague Sr come over?
Her heart was pounding, and her palms were sweaty with nervousness.
