Reclaiming Her Heart -
Chapter 632 Even Sleeping in the Same Bed
Selena stepped out just as John was walking over.
"Penny, where are you headed?"
John was used to seeing Selena around the hotel.
Selena forced a smile. "I got fired."
John fell silent.
Selena continued, "Mr. Walker, the doctor said Raymond can't handle any stress right now. Take your time explaining work stuff to him. If he can't remember something, just let it go for now."
John nodded, thought for a moment, and then tried to comfort her.
"Mr. Montague's brain injury is just temporary."
Selena knew this, but she couldn't hide the sadness and mixed feelings welling up inside her.
"I'll head back now," Selena said.
John could only nod.
When Selena returned to Ashbourne Manor, she sat on the couch in a daze, her hand still red.
Her skin was delicate; even a slight hit would leave a mark.
In the past half-month, William had completely thrown Olivia into jail, and no one could plead for her.
Abigail had left Silver Bay City, while Catherine still refused to divorce and was entangled with Donovan in a heart-wrenching struggle. The White Family had come to help Catherine, but knowing they were in the wrong, the two families were still at odds.
But William didn't care about any of this. He only said that if Raymond didn't wake up, nothing else should be discussed. Now Raymond had woken up, but his brain was damaged, and it was uncertain if there would be more severe aftereffects. Selena leaned back, one hand touching the spot where he had hit her, her eyes a bit wet.
'Raymond, that bastard,' Selena cursed inwardly.
Someone came in from outside and placed some documents in front of her.
"Ms. Fair, this is the truth about Amanda and Andrew's divorce. Amanda was caught cheating at home by Andrew. To prevent Andrew from spreading the news, she preemptively accused him of sexually harassing a female star and released evidence of her being domestically abused. But those people had already been bribed by her. Additionally, these are the latest pieces of evidence found. Madison's parents are blackmailing Amanda because they have photos of her with her lover. She and her lover were too blatant, and he was her assistant. They even had an affair in the Hawthorne Family's villa, and Madison's parents took photos of them."
Selena thought the people William left for her were quite useful, but she had been by Raymond's side for the past half month and hadn't had time to deal with Amanda's matters.
As long as Madison didn't wake up, Amanda wouldn't dare to act rashly.
However, because Selena breached contract last time, Amanda was furious and sent messages to Selena more frequently.
"Do you have those photos?" Selena asked.
"Yes, but Amanda has been in the news a lot for being domestically abused, and she has many fans. If we rashly post these photos, no one will believe us; they'll simply think we photoshopped them to frame her." "I understand. I'll replace a way to handle this," said Selena.
The bodyguard left the documents and departed.
Selena raised her hand to rub her temples. Ten minutes later, she received a call from John.
"Mr. Walker," Selena answered the call.
John sounded helpless. "Penny, I got fired too."
Selena was silent.
'John has been with Raymond for so many years and should have known his preferences. How could he suddenly get fired?'
"Penny, why don't you come over? The boss just kicked me out."
Selena was speechless.
After hanging up, she immediately drove to the hotel.
John was waiting for her downstairs. When he saw her, he smiled.
"Penny, I think Mr. Montague still prefers having you around."
Selena wanted to ask John which eye of his saw that, but Raymond's wound hadn't fully healed, and he needed someone to be with him.
"I'll go up and check. The matters at the Montague Group might need you to handle for now."
John nodded and drove off.
Selena took the card John had just given her and went to the top floor, swiping the card to enter. Raymond was on the phone.
Raymond was truly a remarkable person. He remembered everything about work but only remembered William when it came to people. Raymond's towel was gone, replaced by pajamas. After hanging up the phone, he turned and saw her, frowning.
"What are you doing here again?"
"Mr. Montague, your wound hasn't healed yet. You need someone by your side."
Raymond's head indeed hurt, and he walked straight to the bedroom.
Selena thought for a moment and brought him a glass of water.
He didn't go to sleep immediately but sat on the bed reading. When Raymond saw her enter his bedroom, his grip on the book tightened. "Did I let you into my bedroom before?"
'Not only did I enter your bedroom, but we also slept in the same bed,' Selena thought.
But Selena didn't dare say that; she just nodded.
Raymond glanced at her coldly. "Get out to the living room. You can't enter my bedroom."
