Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 769 Weren't You Eloquent When Deceiving Me?

Across from Selena's booth, the whole Montague clan was hanging out.

Grace had no clue that Penny was actually Selena, so she was totally spaced out until she got back to the booth and finally pieced it together.

Her face was a mess of emotions, and she had no idea what to say, so she just kept her mouth shut.

Selena settled in and looked at William, asking, "Grandpa, did you call me here for something else today?"

But before she could finish, the booth door swung open, and Raymond plopped down next to her.

Raymond had this icy vibe going on. He didn't say a word, but the tension was thick enough to cut with a knife.

William was about to bring up Mia when Raymond cut in, cool as a cucumber, "Mia's situation has nothing to do with Selena, Grandpa. That's it for tonight. I need to talk to Selena."

Selena froze. Raymond was still in a foul mood. If she went with him, would she even make it back alive tonight? "Grandpa, I..."

Before she could finish, Raymond grabbed her waist, his words dripping with menace, "You can refuse, unless you want Grandpa to send you abroad right now, making sure I never replace you again." Selena's face went pale, and she clammed up.

Raymond flashed a smile at William and the others, then yanked Selena up.

"Grandpa, I was there that day too. Mia's got some psychological issues and is misplacing her anger. Get her a good shrink," Raymond added.

Mia, who was also there, immediately shot back, "Raymond, I didn't, I really didn't."

"Mia, do I need to check the surveillance footage?" Raymond asked.

He hadn't checked the footage to give her a bit of dignity.

Mentioning the footage shut Mia up instantly. She started trembling and silently crying.

She thought Raymond would care about her, but nope. His mind was all about Selena.

It had to be Selena who had Raymond under her spell. She hated Selena.

But right then, Raymond was dragging Selena out of the booth.

William's voice called out, "Raymond, don't do anything rash."

Raymond turned his head, even managing a smile. "Grandpa, haven't you always wanted me and Selena to get closer? Well, here I go, getting closer." Selena heard this and got goosebumps all over.

She didn't want this, not at all! Her gut told her tonight was gonna be rough.

Raymond dragged her to his car downstairs.

Selena tried to shake him off but was shocked by his grip, which hurt her knuckles.

Raymond yanked her and threw her against the car.

Her back hit the car, making her wince in pain.

"Selena?" he called out, quickly lighting a cigarette, like he needed the nicotine to calm down.

Selena stayed silent, so he took a deep drag, thought of something, and suddenly laughed.

His eyes turned red, and his gaze was ice-cold.

His chest started heaving, and for a moment, he was so mad he couldn't speak.

It was the first time in his life he was this furious, his mind going blank.

After a few more deep drags, he blinked a few times to calm down.

Selena still didn't say a word, which made him even angrier.

"Not talking? Cat got your tongue? You were pretty chatty when you were fooling me."

After saying this, he was so mad his mind went blank again.

If tonight's mess got out, he'd be a laughingstock!

Making a big deal about divorcing Selena, only to fall for her other identity?

Damn Selena!

He wanted to strangle her!
