Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 775 Giving Gifts

"Shelley, got some free time lately. Wanna grab a bite?" Selena asked.

Shelley's voice got all hesitant. "Nah, Selena. Got some stuff going on. Let's catch up later."

Selena frowned. She remembered Philip's cousin Emma was supposed to have surgery. Was it still not done?

But Shelley had already hung up, so she couldn't ask more.

"Woof woof woof." Max started barking, sensing her good mood, and began running around like a maniac.

Selena just watched him go nuts in the yard, not bothering to chase him.

Next morning, she headed to S.M Corporation.

As soon as she walked into the office, she saw someone sitting there. It was Raymond.

Seeing him there, she thought she was seeing things.

Then she remembered Raymond knew her identity and had probably done some digging.

He was sitting in her chair, looking at some documents.

'So this is her office?' Raymond thought.

She had even turned the Fair family's company around, now diving into the film industry. The first movie she invested in with Alex was a hit, and the current show was getting rave reviews. "What are you doing here?" Selena frowned, noticing he was holding a contract.

When she got there, he stood up and pushed the contract toward her.

Selena saw it was a property transfer contract, the land he had wanted back.

"I'm giving you this land," he said calmly, glancing at her cautiously.

Selena pushed the contract back. "No need. Just keep renting it to me at the agreed price and don't cause any more trouble."

Raymond lowered his eyes, not expecting that even giving a gift would make him feel so low.

He reached out to grab her, but Selena dodged and looked at him warily. "Mr. Montague, you gonna force me again?"

That sentence hit him like an arrow to the heart.

He remembered how he always used the excuse of not being tired of her yet to demand sex whenever he wanted, treating it like a transaction with zero tenderness. Now, it was all coming back to him like a boomerang.

But there were so many boomerangs, he felt like he was being pierced through.

He opened his mouth, then lowered his eyes, silently pushing the transfer contract towards her again.

"Sign it. I owe you this," Raymond said.

Selena laughed to herself, thinking, 'Is he seriously trying to make up for it with money? Fine, whatever.'

She took the contract and scrutinized every word, clearly showing she didn't trust him one bit.

This behavior stung Raymond, making him feel both pissed and a bit wronged.

But as Selena had said, what right did he have to feel wronged?

All along, she was the one who had been wronged.

After checking and confirming there were no traps in the contract, Selena said, "I accept your compensation. From now on, we owe each other nothing." Raymond watched her sign her name stroke by stroke, but he still felt like it wasn't real.

After signing, she pushed the contract back. "Is that all, Mr. Montague? I need to work now."

In other words, you can leave.

Raymond had spent a long time checking out this floor and her office when he came up, wanting to see where she worked.

Now he had no excuse to stay, but he still felt a glimmer of hope, hoping to ask her out for a meal, especially after giving such a big gift.

But Selena had already sat down in her office chair, not even looking at him.

He stood silently for ten minutes, not even getting a glance from her, and had to turn around and say, "I'm leaving then."

Selena was still looking at the documents in her hand and didn't respond.

Raymond felt extremely frustrated, clenching his teeth. "Selena, I'm leaving."

"Mm," Selena responded.

Getting a one-word response made him feel strangely better.

'Actually, she isn't that cold,' Raymond thought.

He smiled slightly and took the elevator downstairs.

At this time, he should have been at work, but he was at the Fair family's company instead.

John was still acting as the driver in the car. Seeing him come down, he quickly said, "Sir, there's a meeting at the Montague Group. We need to get back within twenty minutes." "Hold off for now," Raymond said, then started fiddling with his phone.

John didn't know what he was doing.

Raymond sent a message to Alex: [Gift given. Now what?]

Alex: [Flowers, diamonds. Did you give her a diamond ring when you got married? Even though you're divorced, you should make up for it, right?]

Raymond remembered he hadn't given her anything back then and felt a chill in his heart. "John, have someone send a diamond ring over. The bigger the diamond, the better. Also, send some roses. And clear out my properties in Silver Bay City and transfer half to Selena."

'These gifts should be enough, right?' Raymond thought.
