Reclaiming Her Heart -
Chapter 299 Did You Love Raymond?
Sofia was very skillful in handling this kind of matter.
"Cousin, don't worry, I promise to complete the task and make sure this woman will never be seen again." Olivia sneered. She was already someone who couldn't be seen, so she might as well stay hidden for good. Sofia received her orders and immediately went to work.
Soon, the rumors spread in several groups she was in.
"Raymond's new wife fooling around every night. Heard that Raymond is acting as if she doesn't exist."
"Is that true? Doesn't Mr. Montague Sr. care? Wasn't she personally selected by him?"
"Grandpa is only enduring her because of the debt of saving his life. He's probably discussing how to give her money and then get rid of her from the Montague family."
"That makes sense. This woman can't compare to Olivia, no wonder Raymond has been inseparable from her since Olivia's return."
These rumors spread in every group, and everyone started looking forward to Raymond and Olivia's wedding.
Some bet that they would get married in a month, while others even wagered that Olivia would enter the Montague family's doors next week.
At that time, Selena was at the hospital with Shelley.
Shelley herself came from a wealthy family.
"Miss, the Harper family is a true aristocratic family, so she also has one or two social circles." However, she rarely speaks on ordinary days, and now seeing the rumors in the group, she is extremely angry.
"Selena, look at what these people are saying. They call you ugly? I really want to take a picture of you now and post it in the group to slap their faces! If your appearance is called ugly, then Olivia's face is a disaster zone!"
Selena quietly leaned against the wall, showing no emotional response to her words. "Let them say what they want."
In the current New York circles, the less people favor her, the less attention it would cause when she leaves in the future.
After all, all the focus is on Raymond and Olivia, and she can simply achieve her goals and retire. Shelley looked at Selena, knowing that she was currently troubled by the Fair family's affairs and had no time to think about Raymond. "Selena, to be honest, I really admire you. That's Raymond. When he was with Olivia, many women indeed went drinking and many people wanted to get involved with him. You have the evidence, but you remain steady and unchanging." Raymond makes a fortune with that appearance alone.
Selena had been leaning against the wall with her eyes closed, but upon hearing these words, she felt somewhat uncomfortable. What she recalled at the moment was not the night they first had sex, but the moment in the hotel when he forcefully pinned her against the hallway cabinet. The explosion of hormones at that instant still sent shivers down her spine when she thought about it.
Selena had never experienced such a thing with a man, so her cheeks turned red. Shelley narrowed her eyes, took a few steps closer, and carefully observed her face. "Selena, you really have no feelings for Raymond?" Selena looked away, her tone calm.
"No." She pretended to be too calm, and Shelley believed her.
"This is really unbelievable. With that face right in front of you, as long as the atmosphere is a little ambiguous, any other woman would have pounced on him. You really have self-control." Shelley was truly impressed. Selena tugged at her lips and pretended to gaze into the ward, as if she didn't want to engage in this topic. Shelley decided to drop the subject.
At the moment, the doctor was changing James' medication, and the two bodyguards Shelley sent had been standing by the door and not letting anyone else in for the past few days. Shelley couldn't help but pat Selena's shoulder. "But your stepmother seems genuinely worried about your father. She comes and cries at the door every day. And I heard Nick was also in the hospital a few days ago. With a sick daughter in addition, she must be very anxious." When Beatrice was mentioned, Shelley's tone turned a bit sour. "I don't know if it's genuine concern or if she has other motives. Selena, do you have any shares in the Fair family company now?"
"Deal with this problem? I'm not interested."
"Well, you should be careful. The Harper family only has one daughter, so there's no dirty business about fighting for shares. But there are plenty of other family matters, and besides, you're a blended family. You can't just hand over everything that your parents have worked so hard for to Beatrice."
As soon as she finished speaking, two well-dressed men walked towards Selena from the corridor and stood beside her.
"Miss Fair, hello. We are the lawyers Mr. Fair hired earlier. It's about the distribution of company shares. I believe Mr. Fair has already mentioned it to you. Are you available today? We can replace a place to talk in more detail."
When Selena went to Ridgefield previously, James had mentioned handing the company over to her. So when she saw the lawyers, she didn't suspect anything. After checking their lawyer credentials and confirming there were no issues, she informed Shelley.
"Shelley, if you have anything to do, you can go ahead. I'll go with the lawyers to have a chat."
