Reclaiming Her Heart -
Chapter 666 You Should Send Him to a Mental Hospital
Rodolfo's voice came next.
"I talked to Mr. Ward. He said Carol's grades are top-notch, always at the top of her class. Mr. Ward takes good care of her. How could she go astray? It's a big deal for our family to have a student at Silver Bay Film Academy. Even working overtime feels worth it. My evaluations have been tough lately, but my colleagues are all jealous when they hear Carol's at Silver Bay. Once she graduates, she'll be making big money."
Carol felt the gravity of those words. She sank down against the wall, overcome with the urge to cry.
Just then, Lori opened the door, looking annoyed.
"What are you doing out here? Your dad's back, and you're still dawdling. Later, you need to explain how you plan to spend the 30 dollars."
Carol walked in silently. As the door closed, the hallway outside plunged into darkness, devoid of any light.
It felt as though she was confined within this illuminated enclosure, lost and unable to replace an escape.
Selena woke up early, had a quick breakfast, grabbed her bag, and headed out.
Once she sat down at the company, John called her.
"Ms. Cooper, Mr. Montague wants you to come back..."
Selena had just sent out the documents she worked on last night. Hearing this, she was furious.
"Is he out of his mind?! Mr. Walker, I'm not joking. He needs a mental hospital. He must have hurt his brain and turned into an idiot!!"
John's hand trembled, and he silently looked up at Raymond in front of him.
His phone was on speaker, and Selena's words were loud and clear.
John quickly hinted to Selena. "Ms. Cooper, actually, coming back is a good thing. Mr. Montague trusts you..."
He was thinking, please stop talking.
But Selena couldn't hear his thoughts. She just got angrier.
"I beg him to trust someone else! I'm done with this job! I must be crazy to work as his secretary. Mr. Walker, you should quit, too. Working for him will only shorten your life! He's moody, has a sharp tongue, is self-righteous, stingy, and obsessed with sex. All he thinks about is sex. In short, I'm not coming back."
With every word, John's posture lowered more, and the office temperature dropped.
Raymond took the phone and called out calmly, "Penny."
Selena's mind went blank for a moment. She even checked her phone screen; it was indeed John's number.
She suddenly felt panicked.
Raymond leaned back, holding a pen in his other hand.
"I consulted with John. Our agreement is for two months, and there's still a month and a half remaining. I've already fulfilled my payment. Are you aware of the consequences of breaching the contract? I could take legal action against you until you face financial ruin."
He glanced at his watch and said, "It's nine o'clock now. If you're not in my office by ten, I'll have the Montague Group's PR department deal with you."
The Montague Group's PR department had never lost a case.
When they got involved, the defendant would be lucky to just go bankrupt; they could end up in jail.
After Raymond finished speaking, he hung up.
John stood by, not daring to say a word.
Raymond, having lost his memory, was not polite to him either.
"When she arrives, guard the door and don't let anyone else in."
John quickly left, sweating.
He had been by Raymond's side for years and had never seen anyone insult Raymond to his face like that. When Selena arrived at the top floor of the Montague Group, it was exactly 9:50.
She looked at John outside and casually asked, "Mr. Walker, how's Mr. Montague's mood?"
If she weren't genuinely afraid that Raymond might go crazy and come after her, she wouldn't have come.
One day, when she's more powerful than Raymond, she swore she'd send that bastard to feed the turkeys.
