Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 553 You Are So Ruthless for Penny

Steven had already had the news of employees dying from overwork posted online, garnering some public attention. However, Selena's face had yet to be exposed.

If she allowed Steven to continue causing more uproar, her face would be the topic of discussion across the entire internet when the situation escalates further. After the police and Steven's entourage had departed, Selena promptly took Ann along in the evening to track Steven.

After finishing work, Steven didn't immediately head home. Instead, he went to another rental property.

The door of the rental was just opening as he rushed in.

"My darling, I've missed you so much."

The rental was on the ground floor, with the windows left open. It even had a small courtyard. Compared to Lily's treatment at home, Steven clearly holds this woman in high regard. Despite Steven being in his forties, he was still able to embrace a woman by the window passionately.

Selena couldn't bear to watch anymore, so she only let Ann take photos.

Ann also felt nauseous, especially when she thought that Steven hadn't given Lily a penny in all these years; her anger flared up.

"This kind of man deserves to rot in hell!"

Ann cursed as Selena chuckled lightly. "There are quite a few men like this. When a woman has a child, most of them refuse to divorce because of the child. Even if there's domestic abuse, they still want to provide the child with a complete family."

"I really can't understand their mindset. If I were their child, I would never want to be born into a family with infidelity and abuse," Ann remarked.

Selena glanced back into the room, noting its proximity to the road, yet boasting a good location, which likely cost a pretty penny.

Ann, still young and unmarried, continued to express her anger.

"I would even resent my mother; why wouldn't she resist or escape so I don't understand these women's thoughts."

"If you understand, you would be one of them. It's fundamentally a discontent with marriage, with the child just being an excuse," Selena explained.

Unwilling to face the failure of their marriage and not wanting to confront public opinion, children became the excuse for not divorcing.

Ultimately, it all stemmed from discontent.

Ann took several photos, her expression full of resentment.

"I even suspect that Lily was murdered, and Steven is trying to use her body to extort a sum from the Fair Group."

Selena, witnessing the fervor of the two inside, felt a wave of nausea, almost feeling like retching.

"Keep investigating. We've only uncovered Steven's infidelity and domestic abuse so far," said Steven.

"Selena, there's news coming from over there that Steven's two sons haven't been to work recently. They've been at home all the time, but Aunt Chen's body has already been cremated." The body was cremated so quickly there must be something fishy.

And they only came to ask for money after the cremation.

Selena Fair lowered her eyelashes and rubbed her brow.

"Have the PR department suppress the online news for now; don't make a big fuss yet. The police investigation needs to be synchronized in a timely manner. Send these photos to the police first, starting with Steven's infidelity and abuse." Today, the Fair Group had undergone a series of job reassignments, with each department becoming very organized and responsive, which was what Selena Fair wanted. "Okay," answered Ann.

As Ann drove away, Selena watched the receding scenery outside and casually inquired, "You've been with your boyfriend for seven years; why aren't you two married yet?"

A hint of happiness appeared on Ann's face. "Actually, we're already engaged, but before I came to the Fair Group, I was very busy, traveling all over the place, and didn't have time to plan the wedding. After joining the Fair Group, because my boss was a stubborn person, things have never been smooth. It's only when you came that I felt there was hope."

Selena found it amusing. "So, are you going to discuss marriage with your fiancé now?"

"Yes, we're going to start planning, and I'll send you an invitation when the time comes."

"Alright, I'll be sure to come and bring a gift."

Both of them felt much lighter, but upon returning to Ashbourne Manor, Selena still felt unsettled. She took Max for a walk, intending to spend some time outdoors as it had been a while since she had taken him out.

On the other side, Raymond Montague sat on the sickbed, with Paul speaking beside him.

"The origins of those people are very mysterious. After the incident was exposed, they quickly left the country, and they likely came in illegally, leaving no trace of identity information. They should be from some foreign organization. I am pondering if they came for something specific. Previously, didn't Olivia give you a bracelet? My men have investigated it, and it's just an ordinary piece, nothing peculiar about it. However, it seems the other party somehow got wind of this, prompting their orchestrated actions."

"There are two groups coming to kill me."

Paul nodded, hesitating. "The other group's methods are slightly rougher. It's your uncle Greer. You beat Oliver into that state. I heard he even needs help with his bodily functions now. Do you think he's angry?"

"Is Oliver disabled?"

"No, not disabled, but your blows directly caused issues with his excretory functions. He'll need to use diapers from now on."

Raymond chuckled. "That serious?"

Seeing him still laughing, Paul knew this guy was probably doing it on purpose.

Having been on the team, he knew exactly how to embarrass a man the most.

The Greer family probably hates him now.

"You are so ruthless for Penny; the rest of the Montague family will also target you."

Raymond nonchalantly leaned back. "They used to target me as well before; they just didn't dare to come directly. Half of the assassination attempts I went through since childhood were from them. However, with my brother gone, the focus has shifted onto me."
