Reclaiming Her Heart -
Chapter 600 Hold You While You Sleep
Raymond's originally cheerful mood instantly turned gloomy, his breath visibly cooling. Then, he glanced out the window and said lightly, "Go back to the hotel."
In the hotel room, just as Raymond had finished showering, the doorbell rang.
Opening the door, he saw the lobby manager standing outside, respectfully holding a small box. "Mr. Montague, this is from the servants at Ashbourne Manor. They asked me to deliver it to you, saying it's your luggage from Ashbourne Manor."
Raymond saw the cheap-looking box and frowned, a hint of disgust flashing in his eyes. He coldly said, "Throw it away."
The lobby manager hesitated for a moment, sensing his genuine anger, and quickly nodded.
After closing the door, Raymond took out his phone, found Selena's private number, and deleted it.
'There is no need to contact this woman again in the future. Better never meet again,' Raymond thought.
What he didn't know was that Selena had already deleted his number from her private contacts when the servant brought the small box in the evening. However, she kept his work number as the matters in Manhattan were not yet completed. As she was about to rest, Selena received a message from Raymond on her work number.
Raymond: [Heard your husband is back?]
Selena didn't reply. If the work in Manhattan was done, she would delete Raymond from this number as well.
Raymond sent another message since Selena didn't respond. [My ring was left in your room last night; I couldn't replace it this morning.]
'A ring?' Selena suddenly remembered the diamond ring he held that night. Although Raymond was despicable, he had previously given her a bracelet worth millions, so she assumed this ring wouldn't be cheap either. She didn't want him to continue using this ring to threaten her or to contact her easily.
Penny: [Mr. Montague, I'll look for it tomorrow.]
Selena implied that it was too late now. Raymond clearly didn't understand this implication; he was used to people pleasing him.
Raymond: [Find it now and send it over, or I'll come personally to look for it.]
Selena felt irritated. 'Is Raymond out of his mind?' she thought. 'What kind of jerk is him?'
Taking a deep breath, she got up and checked the time it was already eleven o'clock.
'Only he would disturb someone at this hour without a hint of apology,' she thought. 'Well, he is Raymond.'
With the firm intention of never wanting to have anything to do with him in the future, she got into her car and drove to the Rose Garden.
On the way, Selena was extremely angry, feeling like a bomb was about to explode in her chest.
She found Raymond's professed affection last night utterly ridiculous!
Back in the bedroom at the Rose Garden, she began searching for the ring from the previous night. Given its significant size, it should have been easy to replace, but she searched every inch of the room and couldn't locate it.
Meanwhile, in the hotel room, Raymond looked at the ring in front of him and tapped it with his slender fingertip. In fact, he had found the ring when he woke up this morning. It was something Selena rejected, so he couldn't let it stay there. That was the pride of a man. 'If you don't want it, I won't give it to you; I'd rather discard it,' thought Raymond. However, he didn't expect that he could still use this incident to threaten Selena. Raymond: [Found it yet?]
Exhausted, Selena lay back on the bed, sweat beading on her forehead.
Penny: [No, my house has been burglarized several times. It might have been stolen.]
Raymond: [What should we do?]
Penny: [Mr. Montague, report it to the police. I need to sleep now. Please don't disturb me anymore.]
Seeing this response, Raymond became displeased and jealous. He sent another message. [How come, can your husband hold you while you sleep?]
Even through the screen, Selena could feel his sarcasm.
