Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 823 Raymond Just Felt Angry

Raymond was fuming, but thinking about all the crap he'd pulled on her before, he knew blowing up at her would just get him a slap in the face.

He flopped on the bed, refreshing the post over and over, and saw Alex had left a comment: [No wonder Raymond suddenly asked us to go out and look for a dog; turns out it was your dog that went missing.] Seeing that, Raymond felt a bit better.

He refreshed again and saw Alex had commented again.

[If he's helping you look for it, be careful. He's super allergic to dog hair.]

Raymond felt even more at ease, a small smile tugging at his lips.

Selena, after finishing her tasks, was about to drag her exhausted self to bed when she saw Alex's comments.

She remembered Raymond helping out tonight. After hesitating for a few seconds, she shot him a message: [Thanks.]

That simple thanks instantly cooled Raymond's anger.

'Alright, she's not completely heartless,' Raymond thought.

He stared at his phone, thinking she might ask a few more polite questions.

"Mr. Montague, how are you feeling? Still in the hospital?" and stuff like that.

But nope, the phone was dead silent.

So quiet he even wondered if it was broken.

Little did he know, after sending the message, Selena had passed out from exhaustion, and the phone slipped from her hand.

When she woke up, it was already past ten in the morning.

Feeling dizzy, she got up to drink some cold medicine and almost tumbled down the stairs.

Fiona saw her face and raised a hand to feel her forehead. "Ms. Fair, you've got a fever. Just taking cold medicine won't cut it; take a fever reducer too." Selena nodded, planning to head to the office later, but then she got a call from Ann. "Ms. Fair, something happened to Sophia!"

Selena's eyes snapped open, and she immediately grabbed her laptop to check Twitter.

The top trend was about Sophia being a total diva and bullying her colleagues.

There was even a short video clip.

In the video, Sophia slapped the second female lead hard.

All the staff around gathered, but Sophia pointed at the second female lead's nose, looking like she'd lost her mind with anger. Selena frowned, noticing that this tweet had an unusually high number of comments, all slamming Sophia.

Online, Sophia's educational background was also exposed.

She didn't finish community college, got expelled for drinking and fighting.

As a newcomer that All Star Entertainment was planning to promote, Sophia had quite a bit of attention, so this negative news caused a huge uproar in the comments section.

Just the fact that she got expelled for drinking and fighting was enough to trash her reputation.

If S.M Corporation didn't clear her name, Sophia was toast, and no one would watch any show she was in.

Selena didn't waste any time and rushed to the office.

Ronald was already there, looking super serious.

Selena hurried to her desk and flipped through Sophia's records from community college, frowning, "She got expelled for drinking and fighting?"

Ronald pursed his lips. "I don't know about that. She said it was because she couldn't afford the tuition."

The tuition at that school was crazy expensive, so Ronald believed her.

Ronald knew this was on him. "I'm sorry for causing you trouble, Ms. Fair."

Selena didn't say anything and checked Twitter again. "She must have been targeted. Let's go check out her school first."

Meanwhile, as soon as the trending topic blew up, Raymond's phone rang. It was an unknown number.

He was chilling at Manston Manor, recovering. Last night, he had an allergic reaction, got caught in the rain, and the wound on his back almost got infected. The doc was reapplying his meds. He hit the answer button, and a sweet, unfamiliar voice came through, "Raymond, honey, have you forgotten about me?"

Raymond frowned, looked at his phone to confirm it was an unknown number, and blocked it immediately.

"Maniac," Raymond muttered.

The call ended, and the sweet girl immediately called Aria. "Aria, have you checked it out? What's the situation over there?"

Aria replied, "Still investigating, it's a bit complicated, but I'll sort it out ASAP. It's just some chick causing trouble."

"If my brother and dad hadn't stopped me, I would've gone to Silver Bay City to meet him already," the sweet voice said.

Aria's eyes sparkled. "You can contact him by phone first."

"That won't work either. My mom hid my phone because she's worried about my emotional ups and downs. You know my illness is a bit tricky. She freaks out even if I sneeze, it's so annoying."

"Ms. Smith, if something really happened to you, no one could handle the blame. Don't worry, I'll go ask Raymond."

"Thanks, Aria. I'll convince my family to let me go ASAP. In the meantime, keep an eye on things for me. If there's really a bad woman causing trouble, make her disappear. My second brother is in Silver Bay City, and he'd do anything for me. They spoil me so much."

Aria knew she was super spoiled; otherwise, she wouldn't listen to her.

She had her own motives too, which was Richard's older brother, the one who always had a cold face and an air of nobility.

To get close to him, she had to first please Ms. Smith.
