Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 766 Raymond Held Her Tightly

William stood at the doorway, a bunch of nosy folks crowding behind him.

Selena was stuck in the mix, no way out 'cause the exit was jam-packed.

The four dudes getting grilled by William clammed up. Raymond shot a glance at Selena, and Paul did the same. William, sharp as ever, caught their looks and turned his gaze to Selena too.

But all he saw was a waitress.

He frowned and blurted out, "You guys brawling over a waitress?"

Raymond and Paul kept their mouths shut.

The four guys lined up like kids caught with their hands in the cookie jar, facing William.

William had been in charge for ages, oozing authority, and had seen some serious stuff, earning mad respect from everyone.

Raymond wasn't hurt today, but Richard and Caterlington had puffy faces, and Paul's eye was swollen too.

No one spoke up, so William barked, "Paul, spill it. What was the fight about?"

"A woman," Paul muttered.

William's cane came down on Raymond. "A woman again? Bring her here, now. Don't worry, I won't bite."

Raymond took the hits in silence.

William sneered, "Not gonna call her? Fine, I'll dig her up myself."

"Grandpa," Raymond finally said, just as the sound of high heels echoed from the doorway-it was Grace and Catherine. Grace walked in, saw the chaos, and zeroed in on the waitress in the corner.

She marched over and yanked Selena's hat off.

Selena stumbled, almost stepping into the spotlight.

"So it's you! I knew something was fishy!" Grace yelled.

Selena's heart raced, her face going pale.

Raymond sprang into action, pulling her into his arms, covering her head with his jacket.

His tone was icy, his expression colder than ever.

Grace couldn't handle it. "Raymond, are you seriously losing it over this chick?"

Raymond stayed silent, his grip on Selena firm.

William hadn't seen Selena's face, but he could guess this was the girl who had Raymond all twisted up!

And she was just a waitress!

Thinking back, Raymond stepping on her hand wasn't an accident; it was on purpose.

He was flirting, right under his nose!

William's anger boiled over. It was one thing for Raymond to fight over her once, but twice in two days, and today in front of his military buddies? William took a deep breath. "Let her go!"

He pointed to two military guys. "You two, separate them."

When William was in charge, no one dared to cross him.

But they were in a tough spot, 'cause Raymond was their buddy.

"Move it!" William snapped, glaring at Raymond.

Even now, he was still shielding her.

Someone quickly brought a chair for William, worried he'd blow a gasket, and handed him a cup of calming tea. "Mr. Montague, please chill." William snorted and plopped down.

Even sitting, he was intimidating, and folks talked to him with their heads down, all cautious.

The two military guys approached Raymond, feeling super awkward. "Raymond, don't hate us. How about you let her go?"

Raymond's response was simple, "Get lost."

Richard, who had beef with the waitress, saw Selena's face and knew if she got exposed, things would go south fast. So he stepped up to take the blame. "Mr. Montague, it's all on me. The woman's got nothing to do with it." William stared hard at Selena's back, feeling a weird sense of déjà vu.

Not sure, he looked again.
