Reclaiming Her Heart -
Chapter 794 Selena's Ex-husband
Another ten minutes ticked by, and the phone was still dead silent.
Raymond was getting seriously annoyed. Just then, Alex hit him up for a drink, so he decided to roll out.
But as soon as he hit the bar entrance, he bumped into Caterlington.
Caterlington was all dressed to the nines tonight.
Seeing Raymond, he started hollering, "Isn't this Selena's ex-hubby?"
Raymond's face went dark; he wasn't in the mood for this petty crap, but Caterlington kept pushing. "By the way, did you ever ask Penny why she stayed at the villa with Richard those few nights?" Caterlington knew exactly how to push his buttons. He didn't give a damn about Selena's past; he liked her just the way she was.
But Raymond? Different story.
Raymond always kept his distance from women. Sure, there were rumors about him and Olivia, but they hadn't even kissed. Dude was old-school like that.
And just like that, when Caterlington brought it up, Raymond's face turned stone-cold.
There was a flicker of rage in his eyes.
Caterlington stepped closer. "I don't care about her past, but you seem to. Even if you end up with her, will you keep bringing up her history with other guys?" Raymond's vibe was straight-up menacing, like a brewing storm.
Someone yanked Caterlington away it was Alex.
Alex didn't look too happy either. "Mr. Walsh, cut it out. If the Walsh family hits the skids one day, it'll be too late."
Caterlington sneered, "Don't sweat it. Even if the Walsh family crashes, I'll still get Selena."
That made Raymond see red. "You think you're worthy?"
"And you think you, her ex-husband, are?" Caterlington shot back.
They glared at each other, eyes blazing with fury.
Alex was seriously worried they'd throw down again and quickly shoved Raymond inside. "Forget it, man. No need to stoop to his level." Caterlington was clearly a bit tipsy tonight, his eyes a little glassy.
No point arguing with a drunk.
But as Raymond sat in the private room, he couldn't shake the thought, 'Did Selena really not sleep with Richard those nights at the villa?' The thought gnawed at him.
His eyes burned with anger.
Whatever Alex was saying beside him, he didn't catch a word.
The next morning, Selena got a call from John, saying there was an issue with the land contract and she needed to sign it again on-site.
Selena didn't think twice. She really needed that land, and renovations had already started. It was gonna be used by the company's artists soon, so no room for screw-ups. She headed straight to the café where she was supposed to meet John.
But after sitting down and sipping her coffee, she started feeling drowsy.
When she woke up, she was on a cold, small bed.
Her face went pale, unable to believe what was happening.
Her legs were strapped to a nearby machine, and a doctor was examining her genitals.
"What are you doing?" Selena asked.
Wasn't she supposed to be discussing a deal with John? How did she end up here? Was it the coffee?
John was backed by Raymond, so what was Raymond up to this time?
Soon, she heard the doctor's words. "Just checking if you're clean, Ms. Fair."
One sentence, like a dagger, stabbed into Selena's heart.
How many times had this happened?
She couldn't even count. Raymond always used the most direct and humiliating ways to treat her!
Her tears fell instantly, teeth clenched tight.
The cold swab entered her, and she couldn't move, just biting her lip and silently crying.
Seeing her resistance, the doctor frowned. "Ms. Fair, relax. The more tense you are, the more it'll hurt."
Selena turned her head away, tears streaming down harder.
The exam lasted half an hour. Once all the data was collected, the doctor finally released her legs.
Selena put on her pants, her fingers trembling slightly.
As she walked out, she saw Raymond standing in the hallway.
The entire floor had been cleared. He stood with his eyes closed, leaning against the wall, looking untouchable. Hearing the door open, he slowly opened his eyes and asked the doctor, "How is she?"
"Ms. Fair's sexual activity is not frequent. She's clean, no viruses."
Because they used a special channel, the results came out quick.
The doctor and Raymond's convo was unfiltered, making Selena feel her dignity was being stomped on again. Raymond finally seemed somewhat satisfied and stepped forward to take her hand.
But Selena stood still, silent, dodging his outstretched hand.
Raymond raised an eyebrow. "Are you throwing a tantrum?"
