Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 804 I Told You, I Like Her

After Selena slapped him, she felt totally wiped out, like she had no energy left.

Raymond's cheek had five red finger marks, but he didn't give a damn. Instead, he squirted some body wash onto a bath sponge and started scrubbing every inch of her skin.

Finally, he poured some hand soap into his palms, grabbed her hands, and carefully rubbed them.

Her body was covered in marks, some deep, some shallow, coming together like a crazy oil painting on white paper, looking oddly beautiful.

Raymond's eyes lingered on her for a few minutes before he scooped her up and grabbed a clean towel to dry her off.

When he carried her back to bed, Selena woke up again and cursed, "Bastard."

He didn't say anything; as long as he was comfy, it didn't matter. Being cursed at was no biggie.

After tucking her in, John called to say the stock transfer documents were ready.

Raymond looked at the person lying next to him and responded indifferently.

John asked, "Mr. Montague, are you really gonna hand it over to them? If Elbert gets the shares from the other Montague family members, plus Mr. William Montague's, then you might not be the president of the Montague Group anymore." Raymond replied, "I've always known Elbert's game; otherwise, he wouldn't have placed Harry in the Montague Group."

John asked, "What if Elbert becomes the president of the Montague Group?"

"Grandpa's shares won't go to him." After saying this, Raymond raised his hand to rub his temples. "Even if he gets them, it doesn't matter. I've long grown tired of this gig."

From the moment he took this position, countless people had warned him that it was supposed to be Christopher's, but it fell into his hands because Christopher died.

He respected Christopher but couldn't really open up to him. Living in his shadow since childhood led him to join the military. If it weren't for taking on this so-called heir role, he would still be in the military, fighting hard, rather than stirring up the business world.

He didn't want to compete with Christopher for anything, which only made him feel annoyed.

He had his own pride.

Just as he was about to crash, Alex called.

"I heard you're transferring ten percent of the Montague Group's shares?" Alex's voice was full of disbelief, but he knew that if Raymond had made this decision, he must have thought it through.

"Yep," Raymond replied.

"For Selena?"

"Yep, I said I like her."

"Raymond, do you like her, or do you love her?"

This time, Raymond was silent for a few seconds before asking, "Is there a difference?"

As a top screenwriter, Alex found it hard to explain love to someone who didn't quite get it. He said, "How should I put it? For guys in our circle, liking is common, like keeping a pet. When you have a beautiful pet, you want to show it off. But

love is different. Love is exclusive. If another guy's gaze lingers on her for even a second, the darkest parts of you will be triggered-heavy, dirty, even fragile. That's why you rarely hear the word 'love' in our circle."

Alex just hoped that if it was love, Raymond would control his temper and not use his military ways on Selena, or he would regret it sooner or later.

But if it was just a shallow liking, then he could do as he pleased.

As for the ten percent shares, Raymond had money, and he could handle it however he wanted.

But to win a woman's heart, those shares alone wouldn't cut it.
