Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 734 Who Did Raymond Come For?

Raymond's eyes were red too, and he patted her back, trying to calm her down. "It's alright, it's alright." He held Selena's head like she was made of glass. Selena had a bruise on her forehead and a bit of blood at the corner of her mouth.

He wiped the blood off her face with his shirt and kissed her. "It's okay," he said, trying to comfort her.

Selena's nose tingled with emotion; she hadn't expected Raymond to show up, and so fast.

He must've climbed up those pipes, fifteen floors high, risking his neck.

Who did Raymond come for?

Why would he take such a huge risk?

But then she thought of Mia. Mia was here too, and they were tight.

Just like that, the gratitude she felt vanished.

She got her cool back.

Raymond didn't notice her change in mood. He just held her hand and stood by the door, saying, "The others who came up will quietly take out the bandits here, don't worry." Selena leaned back against his chest and nodded slowly.

Raymond's left hand held her close, and he took in the scent of her hair, feeling a bit distracted.

But Selena just kept an eye on the outside, and when she was sure there were no footsteps, she said, "Let's head to the surveillance room; it's on the tenth floor."

Only by controlling the surveillance room could they make sure the others wouldn't get caught.

Raymond held her hand. "I'll go, you stay here."

The fifteenth floor was the safest right now; the enemies here were already taken care of.

But Selena had already walked out, like she wasn't the one crying in his arms just moments ago.

Raymond stood there, stunned for a few seconds before rushing over and pulling Selena back. "Are you mad?"

Because he was late yesterday, causing her to get captured here?

"No," Selena replied.

"Penny, I..."

Before Raymond could finish, footsteps sounded not far away. He instinctively shielded her behind him, hearing the footsteps getting closer.

Raymond gently chambered a bullet, and when he saw who it was, he realized it was the police.

He breathed a sigh of relief and turned to kiss Selena on the cheek. "Don't be mad, I didn't mean to."

Selena ignored him, so Raymond kept explaining, "I got my memory back. I was in the hospital bed for a few hours, and the doc said I had too much info in my head, messing up my recent memories, which is why I forgot about our dinner. I'm sorry."

"Penny, you gotta give me a chance to explain."

Instead of jumping to conclusions and sulking.

Selena was a bit surprised; she rarely heard Raymond apologize. He was always so full of himself.

But she suddenly remembered what Mia had said before. Mia had said that once Raymond got his memory back, she would tell him about Selena.

And today, Mia just happened to be here.

Raymond had already pulled her along, avoiding the surveillance, and made their way to the tenth floor.

The other cops who came up were quick, soon clearing out the enemies on the surrounding floors.

In the surveillance room, the masked man stood up the moment he saw Raymond inside the building.

When Raymond and Selena arrived, they only saw a few bodies lying around, nothing else.

Selena was a bit surprised; she hadn't taken these guys out.

No wonder the kidnappers hadn't found her; someone had been helping her from the shadows. But who?

She instinctively shook off Raymond's hand and quickly searched the room.

Meanwhile, Raymond sat in the surveillance room, sending false info to the kidnappers, helping his team clear the way to the top floor.

Now, except for the twenty or so kidnappers on the first floor, the other floors were almost empty.

The lead kidnapper was getting more suspicious; why was it so quiet everywhere?

They still hadn't found Selena. How could a woman hide so well?

Were his men all useless?

He immediately gathered ten men and decided to check the surveillance room first.

He had sent two men to the surveillance room earlier, and they hadn't come back. Selena couldn't have taken down so many people herself, could she? Seeing the ten kidnappers coming up to this floor, Selena's eyes darted around.

"Mr. Montague, when they come out of the elevator on the tenth floor, we can shoot the moment the doors open," said Selena.

Raymond relayed the situation to the cops, and four or five officers in bulletproof vests waited outside the tenth-floor elevator.

The people inside the elevator had no clue.

The moment the elevator doors opened, gunfire erupted.
