Reclaiming Her Heart -
Chapter 811 As Expected, She Remained Unmoved
Raymond stood at the door, just a towel hanging low on his hips, and grabbed the slip she handed over.
The breeze from outside hit him, but he didn't feel the chill. Instead, it felt like it was cooling him down.
A $200,000 item? Normally, he wouldn't even blink at it, but right now, he was reading it super carefully, word by word.
Selena was tapping her foot, clearly annoyed. "Just take it to your finance guys. No need to waste time on such a small amount."
"$200,000 is still cash," Raymond shot back.
His eyes were calm and steady. He didn't look up at her, worried she might catch on to something.
The wind picked up, and Selena sneezed.
He turned a bit. "Wanna come in and chill?"
"Nope." Selena shot back, not missing a beat. "I'll head back to my room. If there's any issue, just hit me up. I've already gone over it with Mr. Hughes, so it should be fine." "Selena," he called out, almost without thinking.
She turned to face him.
He stood tall, right at the door, his features sharp and cold.
But who would've guessed what he'd just done?
Selena asked, "Is there a problem, Mr. Montague?"
Raymond could see the impatience in her eyes and felt a bit reckless. "I just wanted to chat. I've had Mia sent to a mental hospital."
But all he got in return was Selena's back and the sound of her door closing.
If he didn't know she was just there, he might've thought he imagined it.
Yep, she was totally unfazed.
If she knew he'd followed her here, she'd be more annoyed than touched.
Selena's body was honest. He could dominate it, make her melt under him.
But her heart? That was a fortress, spitting out harsh words even in the most intimate moments.
Her body was sweet, but her words were sharp.
For a second, Raymond wanted to kick down her door.
Why care who her heart belonged to, as long as her body was his?
Why overthink it? She didn't like him anyway.
But who did she like? The thought of it being Caterlington, Austin, or Richard made him crazy with jealousy.
Back in his room, seeing the tissues in the trash, he thought about how even her voice could turn him on. What a freak.
But this kind of thing would definitely happen again.
Meanwhile, Selena lay in bed, still pissed off.
But when she glanced at Brian's box nearby, she calmed down. She had too much to do and planned to leave first thing in the morning. The next morning, she got up at five to avoid running into Raymond. But as soon as she opened her door, his door opened too. Selena's face soured, feeling like Raymond had stayed up all night just waiting for her to leave.
She walked quickly, not looking at him, and hurried to the entrance of Harmony Garden. Once in the car, she floored it.
She didn't leave right away but took the box to Brian's house first.
The house was sealed up again. She used the key, opened the door, and placed the box on the table.
No one would probably come here again.
After locking up, she got back in her car.
This time, she headed straight for the highway, but in the rearview mirror, she saw Raymond's car tailing her.
A wave of anxiety hit her. She felt like he was really following her. But she had no proof, and Raymond wouldn't admit it. This feeling was the worst!
