Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 602 This Kind of Man is Just for Sleeping With

Selena was just about to ask how Philip hadn't suspected anything despite all the money she spent.

But her phone buzzed at that moment; it was another message from Raymond.

Just one word.

Raymond: [Ring.]

She suddenly felt agitated and called the police, reporting that something was missing from her apartment and asking them to contact the owner, Raymond. Raymond was still waiting for Selena to reply, but he soon received a call from the police, asking for a description and estimated value of the missing ring. When the police introduced themselves, Raymond's face fell. He instructed John to take over the call and then redialed Selena's number.

Selena was still at Shelley's house. Having had a few drinks. She felt even more irritated by his constant harassment.

"Mr. Montague."

She pressed the answer button, and Shelley looked over when she heard the formal address.

Raymond's anger dissipated as soon as he heard her voice.

"You're not home?"

"I've already reported the ring to the police. They'll contact you directly if there are any updates."

Selena didn't answer Raymond's question, cutting off all his excuses about the ring.

Raymond gripped his phone and stopped pretending.

"Penny, we've slept together so many times. How about coming out for a drink?"

Selena knew he had shed his gentlemanly facade and turned into a beast.

"I'm busy."

"Alex's movie is about to be released. You invested $150 million, and so did I. The film is currently stuck in review, and I happen to know someone involved."

He didn't spell it out, but it was clearly a threat.

$150 million was pocket change for Raymond; he didn't care about the money. Alex was always laid-back, and if Raymond really wanted to delay the audit, Alex would probably just buy him a couple of drinks.

But for Selena, the $150 million was crucial. The entire S.M was counting on this movie to make money.

Raymond had her by the throat.

The feeling of being threatened was unpleasant, but she couldn't compete with Raymond, which was a fact.

Lowering her eyes, she heard him ask, "Do you have time for a drink now?"

Raymond's tone was indifferent, still maintaining his aloof demeanor.

Selena hung up the phone and saw Shelley looking at her meaningfully. Shelley then asked, "Has Raymond ever formally confessed to you, saying he loves you?"

Everyone knew he was incredibly arrogant, rarely speaking to others, and only hanging out with a select few. Most people didn't dare talk to him, yet he personally called Selena.

Shelley had both Selena's personal and work Facebook accounts but rarely checked her own account, so she hadn't seen Selena's post complaining about Raymond's harassment. Selena's face darkened at the thought of Raymond's inexplicable confession.

"Two days after he forced me, the night I got home from the hospital, he casually gave me a ring, saying he liked me."

"Fuck! If he weren't good-looking, I'd really want to punch him."

Shelley was furious, standing up and patting Selena on the shoulder.

"Believe me, you can't trust a man like that. He's so energetic and knows so many tricks; he'll wear you out eventually."

Selena blushed, feeling very embarrassed. "Those ten times, I had no choice."

After all, she needed his help.

"It is enough to sleep with him ten times. You've seen and done everything. It's time to replace someone else, a more obedient man. Raymond, a domineering man like him, will only bring you pain." Selena rubbed her temples. "I know."

Shelley didn't push any further. She knew that Selena was the most clear-headed woman she had ever met.

Anyone else, after sleeping with Raymond so many times, would have fallen for his looks and money in an instant.

After leaving, Selena headed to Sky Gallery.

While still in the car, Raymond had already sent her the location of the private room he was in.
