Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 1004 Testing His Feeling After Rachel left Tessa's place, she hopped into her car.

With both hands gripping the steering wheel, Rachel knew she had to stir up sserious trouble for Selena next.

Only then would Tessa let her off the hook; otherwise, Tessa's revenge would be way worse than prison. Rachel's mind immediately went to Aria.

With Nathan laid up in the hospital, security around Aria had to be slacker. She needed to bust Aria out of The White Villa.

Aria had been disfigured and locked up for ages. She had to be seething with anger.

Rachel's lips curled into a smile as she headed straight for The White Villa.

She gave the bodyguard at the door a simple story, "I talked to Mr. White earlier. I'm here to visit Ms. White and bring her a gift that Mr. White picked out himself." Since Aria had been locked up, Nathan hadn't sent any gifts.

The bodyguard recognized Rachel; she had met Nathan by the river before.

He didn't suspect a thing and let Rachel in right away.

Aria had gone nuts from being cooped up in that room. At first, she tried to keep it together, but after hearing that Nathan was still searching for Betty's body by the river, she lost it.

Aria banged on the door like crazy and even threatened a hunger strike, but no one paid her any mind.

She could only pace around the room every day, and from all the shouting, her voice was shot.

Her window was sealed shut too. Nathan was worried she might jump, so he had it sealed tight.

Aria sat on the bed, looking a mess and completely hopeless.

Rachel called from outside, "Ms. White, you okay in there?" Aria thought she was hearing things. She knew Rachel but wasn't close to her. She had no idea why Rachel would show up now.

The door opened, and Rachel stood there, smiling, "Looks like you haven't been doing too well. Nathan's in the hospital and won't wake up for about two months." Aria hadn't heard this but had a hunch something had happened to Nathan.

She sat on the bed, her voice raspy, "Rachel, why are you here? We're not exactly friends." Rachel said, "Aria, do you want out? The whole Betty thing was Selena's plan to drive a wedge between you and Nathan. She pulled it off. Nathan, who adores you, locked you up because of Betty. But guess what? Betty's not dead; Selena's just hiding her." "I'll kill that bitch!" Aria shot up, her face twisted with rage.

Rachel said, "But you can't get out now, so saying that is pointless." Hearing this, Aria calmed down and asked, "So what do I do?" Rachel replied, "Listen tofrom now on. It's the only way to get back at Selena." Aria took a deep breath and slowly nodded.

Rachel's plan to get Aria out was straightforward: she claimed Nathan had previously agreed to send Aria to a psychiatric hospital for treatment.

Nathan had mentioned it before, so Rachel used it as her excuse.

When Aria was finally taken out of the villa, she could hardly believe it. Was it really that easy? Rachel personally drove her to a building and asked calmly, "Nathan will wake up in two months. What's your plan?" Aria gritted her teeth, "First thing, I'm going to kill Selena! If it weren't for her, Nathan wouldn't have treatedlike this!" "Good luck with that," Rachel said, grinning. She was thrilled to have someone else handle Selena for her. Aria quickly reached out to her friends, needing their help. She was dead set on making Selena pay.

At 7 PM, Selena remembered her appointment with Carter and headed to Sky Gallery.

The place was packed with Carter's friends, most of whom didn't know Selena. Seeing how stunning she was, they assumed she was Carter's new fling. Sof these folks were in finance, while others were just slackers like Carter, with no real ambitions.

Carter had the best family background among them. Most of the others weren't elite enough to have heard of Selena.

Carter said, "Don't get any ideas; this is my future sister-in-law."

He had Selena sit close to him and then pulled out his phone to calm Raymond fight in front of her. He even signaled to his friends, "Keep playing, make snoise." So the sound of dice and men's voices filled the room.

Raymond answered the call and, hearing the noise, knew Carter was out drinking again.

Carter asked, "Raymond, want to cout and have sfun?" Raymond said, "Carter, I told you to cwork at the Montague Group." Carter laughed, "Working isn't as fun as drinking with friends. Raymond, you coming out tonight?" Raymond refused, "No."

"Alright then," Carter said and then turned to Selena, "Penny, do you drink this kind of liquor? It's @mix of three different types, and I've heard it packs a punch." Hearing this, Raymond paused before hanging up, "Is Selena there?"

Carter replied, "Yeah, but you probably don't want to see my friends. We're all having a good time. Penny's been swamped with work lately, so I brought her out to relax." After saying that, Carter asked Selena, "How is it? Pretty strong, right?" Selena honestly replied, "It's okay." Raymond immediately couldn't stay calm, "Address." Carter deliberately didn't tell him and hung up at that critical moment.
