Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 88 What Are You Nervous About?

She immediately sat up straight. If Fiona saw this dar later and couldn’t resist coming to pick her up at the door everything would be exposed.

And she had to quickly call Fiona and tell her to hide Max. Otherwise, with Raymond’s allergic reaction to dog fur, who knows if he would have an allergic attack and faint as soon as they arrived there.

Furthermore, he had seen Max before and would definitely recognize him right away.

Just as she took out her phone, she heard John in the front seat asking,

“Sir, the old man said the wedding house prepared for you is just ahead. He will arrive in about two days and said he’ll go there to inspect your living situation with that person.”

Not only does Raymond dislike Selena, but John also dislikes Selena. After all, everything the Fair family has done since the engagement with the Montague family is quite despicable.

If it wasn’t for Selena saving Mr. Montague Senior back then, their family wouldn’t have this opportunity to act out.

The first round of financing was helped by the Montague family, and now for the second round of financing, estimated to be worth 3 billion, they still need the Montague family’s help.

And from the Fair family’s side, it seems they are trying to forever tie down the CEO with this daughter.

It’s simply an ambitious plan.

But the Miss from the Fair family must have given the old man some kind of aphrodisiac. The old man is especially concerned about their marriage, and before even returning to the country, he has already arranged everything and even said he’s going to visit their wedding house in person to see their traces of life together.

Love can be faked, but traces of life cannot be disguised.

Raymond himself hasn’t even been to Ashbourne Manor until now. There is no trace of him there at all. Once the old man enters to inspect, everything will be exposed.

John brought the car here just to show Raymond the way.

To the extent that Raymond himself isn’t concerned about this marriage, he doesn’t even know

where Ashbourne Manor is.

Raymond’s face darkened when he heard this.

Ashbourne Manor was less than 200 meters away in the distance. It was a beautiful house with an excellent location, and most importantly, it was surrounded by parks and very quiet.

The old man must have carefully picked and chosen this house, clearly showing how much he

likes Selena.

Neither of them noticed that Selena’s face had turned pale on the side.

Then, she dialed Fiona’s number and called her. Fiona answered quickly and sounded cheerful.

“Miss Fair, are you back? Max suddenly became restless at home, as if he heard the sound of your

car.”

“Keep an eye on him.” Selena’s tone was urgent, as if she could already hear the dog barking. Upon hearing this, Fiona was stunned. Selena rarely spoke like this before, and Fiona, being smart, quickly guessed. “Is Mr. Montague coming over? If so, I will hide Max immediately.”

Selena sighed, impressed by Fiona’s intuition. Fiona was indeed the person Mr. Montague Senior left for her. She quickly glanced at Raymond, not revealing much information in her words.

Raymond probably didn’t know what she was talking about. “Yes, please do that as soon as possible.” After hanging up the phone, Fiona took Max by the leash and hid him in the previously prepared room.

The room was at the back of the villa. Even if Max barked, it wouldn’t be heard as long as they stayed away from that room. Mr. Montague probably didn’t have the leisure to wander around the

villa.

Fiona quickly called the few remaining servants and had the villa disinfected. The car had already arrived at the gate. Raymond had never been to this so-called marriage house before and now he was here with inexplicable resistance.

John saw his expression through the rearview mirror and tentatively said, “I can bring your things here next time, you don’t have to go in personally. You can come over when the old man wants to

cat here.”

Raymond rubbed his temples with his hand and replied in a calm tone, “Hmm.” Selena’s palms were sweaty. Hearing this, she unknowingly felt relieved. Raymond was very perceptive to people’s emotions, and now his gaze fell on her. “What are you nervous about?”
