Chapter 1049 Selena Is My Girlfriend With Raymond showing up, the tension in the air eased up a bit for Selena.
When Selena first found out she wasn't Barbara's real daughter, it hit her hard.
On countless nights when she felt like breaking down, she had to remind herself of Barbara's kindness just to keep going.
So, she didn't want to find her real family, scared that she'd been truly abandoned.
Deep down, Selena had a lot of self-hate. Finding out her parents were such awful people made her despise her own bloodline.
But now, with Raymond here, it felt like a jolt of strength shot through her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSelena chuckled, "What do I owe you an explanation for? Didn't you want two million dollars? Fine, I'll give you two million to cut all ties. Don't ever clooking foragain." Before tonight's party, Delia and Kyle thought two million dollars was a fortune.
But after Wind explained the cost of the estate and the guests attending the party, they got greedy. Kyle said, "Give us two hundred million dollars! Two million is nothing!" Everyone was just watching the unfold, but when they heard Kyle's demand, someone snickered.
They hadn't raised Selena for a single day, and now they were demanding two hundred million dollars the moment they met her.
People thought Selena was ignoring her biological parents, but it turned out she was dealing with greedy ones.
The snicker made Kyle lose his confidence, but his greed won out. "Two hundred million dollars, and we'll never cto you again. Also, you need to bail your brother out." Selena found it amusing, her face turning cold. "No, you can sue me. Whatever the court decides, I'll pay." Even though the court would rule against her, the amount wouldn't be more than a hundred thousand dollars. Selena offering them two million was just to stop them from causing a scene. She didn't expect them to demand two hundred million. She couldn't agree to that.
She turned to leave, but Kyle wasn't having it. He tried to grab her, but tripped over something and fell, almost knocking out his front teeth.
Raymond glanced at a bodyguard nearby. "Throw them out." The Adams family's bodyguards stiffened and instinctively looked at Emily.
When Delia and Kyle were causing a scene, they should have stepped in, but everyone knew about Emily's grudge against Selena. Since Emily hadn't ordered them to act, they couldn't make decisions on their own. They were waiting for Emily to humiliate Selena first, then throw them out, ensuring Selena couldn't stay in this circle.
But now Raymond was here. Emily didn't dare provoke him and reluctantly nodded.
The bodyguards quickly stepped forward and dragged Delia and Kyle away.
Delia started cursing, "Bitch! I should never have given birth to you! Do you think you're noble now? You're still a hillbilly!" Kyle quickly joined in, "If your mom hadn't slept with someone else and gotten pregnant with you, why do you think I sold you?" This statement revealed a lot. It meant Selena was the daughter of Delia's affair, which was why Kyle sold her.
Such a lowly background, exposed in such a high-class setting, made Selena's situation extremely embarrassing. Even if speople felt sorry for Selena, after hearing this, they looked at her with disdain.
Despite all the strange looks, Selena's aura was like a clear spring, transparent and unfathomable.
Raymond was different from everyone else. He seemed to see the mess beneath her calm facade.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTonight, the little bit of fantasy Selena had about family was shattered.
At this moment, Selena felt like she had been abandoned in the wilderness, nowith no one to hear her inner cries. Selena lowered her eyes, intending to leave. But Raymond strode over and pulled Selena into his arms.
Selena stiffened, and the next second, she felt Raymond cupping her cheek and kissing her.
Selena's pupils contracted slightly.
When she realized what was om happening, she immediately tried to push Raymond away. Raymond only held her tighter. Selena was furious, 'Kissing on such an occasion? Are you crazy?'
Fortunately, Raymond wasn't completely insane. After about five m seconds, he let go of Selena and pulled her into his arms. Just then, Paul walked over, seeing everyone stunned, and asked in confusion, "What's going on?" Raymond responded, "She's late. Letintroduce. Selena is my girlfriend."
