Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 301 Unexpected Remembrance

Nick tasted the metallic tang of blood in his mouth, thinking about Selena's face and her figure, feeling a heat rushing through his body. But that part of him couldn't harden anymore, creating a stark contrast with the lifelessness of that area. Furious, he let out a roar and knocked everything off the table onto the floor. He was currently at the Fair family's mansion, and Alice, having heard the commotion, walked in.

"Brother, are you alright?"

Nick sneered, his eyes filled with darkness. "I must have Selena. I will use all means to humiliate her to death! Only then can I replace solace."

Alice's eyes lit up. If her brother wanted Selena and she wanted Raymond, the two could cooperate sooner than expected.

"Brother, you can create misunderstandings with Selena first. The reason I had you send the Stone family's bodyguard to deal with her was to make her think it was Olivia's doing. When she gets hurt and tells Raymond, he won't help her, and maybe he'll even sympathize with Olivia and consider divorce."

Alice's voice was gentle as she slowly picked up the things on the floor, dusting them off.

"After she gets divorced, and with our father currently hospitalized, no matter what methods you use directly, no one will help her."

Alice had her own calculations in mind when suggesting this. She just wanted Raymond to divorce Selena as soon as possible.

Although this would temporarily make Olivia happy, it didn't matter. She would defeat Selena, the woman who had climbed into her bed, and then replace a way to deal with that wretched Olivia.

She would always remember Olivia's humiliation of her.

For now, make Olivia fight with Selena. It didn't matter which side got eliminated; it would benefit her either way.

Nick didn't say a word, he just stood there coldly.

Then he laughed.

"Alice, you're getting smarter and smarter."

Alice also smiled. "Brother, it's for our own good."

...

After Selena finished helping Mia with her painting, she noticed Mia standing to the side making a phone call.

Only then did Selena realize that Mia's driver had already left.

Mia walked over with a joyful tone. "Selena, do you have any plans for tonight or tomorrow morning?"

Selena thought for a moment. For now, her father was still unconscious, and the construction in Manhattan was proceeding smoothly. She just needed to pick up Max tomorrow afternoon as planned. Mia clapped her hands in excitement. "That's great!"

During the conversation, she happily hooked her arm around Selena's.

"I absolutely must treat you to a big meal today!"

As she packed up her drawing board, Mia held onto Selena and walked towards the roadside.

"I guarantee you've never tasted it before!"

Selena was about to decline when she noticed a familiar car parked in front of them. It was... Raymond's car.

She immediately swallowed her saliva.

Mia pulled open the car door and shoved her in.

"Cousin, Selena and I are going together. I hope you don't mind. She just helped me with my painting, and I thought it would be nice to take her out for a meal."

Selena had already been pushed in, and now it felt too intentional to back out.

Raymond sat opposite her, their knees almost touching.

She felt uncomfortable and wanted to move away, but the car was not an extended version, so there wasn't much space. Her attempt to move away only caused their knees to brush against each other. Mia didn't notice this subtle atmosphere and closed the car door.

"Selena, I just told you that Cousin is busy, but then I received a message that Emily is having a gathering at the Spring Spa Hotel on the mountain. She likes to show off her wealth and hires international chefs to cook on-site every year.

Although Emily is not a good person, she spends money generously. They even fly lobsters in directly, which are incredibly delicious. And don't worry, she's not in charge of the banquet. It's her brother, Paul. Cousin is also going, so we can go together. The stars are beautiful tonight, and we can stay at the hotel overnight. I can continue my painting, and you can help me revise it, okay?"

Mia grabbed her arm playfully.

Selena's scalp tingled, regretting that she had answered too quickly when Mia asked if she was available. Now she couldn't even replace an excuse. Plus, she felt the warmth from Raymond's knees, as if she was caught in between.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Raymond closing a file, his slender hands resting on top of it.

"Is the neighbor who loves renovating still there in Rose Garden?"

No matter when or where, Raymond's appearance always amazed people.

From an artist's perspective, Selena really liked his handsome face. He was exceptional in every way.

"Huh?" She couldn't recall the neighbor who loved renovating for a moment.

Raymond chuckled lightly, dissipating much of the awkward atmosphere between them.

"Weren't you complaining about a noisy neighbor who was renovating?"

Then Selena remembered that when Lauren came to cause trouble before, she casually complained to Raymond. She didn't expect him to remember.
