Chapter 1053 Raymond, You're Amazing Selena had been running herself ragged for so long that she finally got seriously sick.

She saw a bunch of empty coffee cups and checked her phone, realizing she'd been out for days.

When she tried to rub her temples, her fingers were shaking. She'd had a ton of nightmares-sometimes about Barbara, sometimes about that small town she'd visited recently, and waking up in that bed covered in marks. She felt a wave of self-loathing and even a bit nauseous.

But when she opened her eyes and saw Raymond, she felt a lot better.

She glanced at the coffee cups next to her and frowned. "Did you drink all these?" Raymond's eyes were still bloodshot, but the first thing he did was check her forehead to make sure her fever had gone down. He sighed in relief.

"Raymond, you have stomach issues," Selena said.

He chuckled and had a servant take away the coffee cups. He hadn't expected her to wake up just then.

Selena had no idea how bad her fever had been. Her whole body felt like it was on fire, and she'd been muttering the names of her relatives in her sleep. But she didn't have any relatives. So even in her dreams, she was hesitant and confused.

Raymond sat beside her, handling her company's affairs while listening to her murmurs.

At least, over the past three days, she'd muttered his namong the others.

Selena tried to get up but felt weak and fell back down. "How's Sophia doing?" she asked.

"Sophia's been discharged. All her recent shoots have been postponed, and she's resting at home," Raymond replied.

Selena sighed in relief and grabbed his hand, making him sit by the bed. "Is your stomach hurting?" Raymond hadn't been angry since she'd humbled herself to give him a blowjob on the terrace.

Selena was naturally proud; she wouldn't have done that if she didn't care about him.

Raymond's heart, which had been tense for three days, felt a touch of sweetness at that moment. He smiled and said, "I'm fine. You should rest up for the whole week." Selena had been burning up with a fever for three days. When she woke up and heard what he said, she knew he'd taken care of sof her company's affairs.

If he could manage the Montague Group so well, handling a small company she'd just taken over was nothing for him.

Selena looked at him with admiration. "Raymond, you're amazing." Raymond's exhaustion from the past three days melted away with her compliment.

Selena knew what he liked to hear. As he fed her oatmeal, she drifted back to sleep peacefully.

This time, Raymond lay down beside her, holding her tightly.

Ever since the party three days ago, even those who hadn't attended had heard about what happened.

Selena's bizarre parents were also a hot topic.

The social hierarchy in this circle was brutal.

Someone in the group said: [Her mom used to be a prostitute, then married someone after quitting. Her dad's been to jait, and her brother's still in prison. Isn't this a family of criminals?] Another chimed in: [Raymond must be hypnotized by her; otherwise, why would he be interested in such a lowly woman?] Someone else added: [Honestly, Tessa's status is way higher than hers. Anyone with eyes would choose Tessa.] These comments spread quickly, but no one dared let them reach Raymond's ears unless they had a death wish.

No one dared let Tessa hear them either. Even if Tessa was chasing Raymond, so what? Given the Smith F family's status, people would only say Tessa was brave. Tessa was in these groups, seeing everyone's discussions, but she didn't feel happy.

Whenever Tessa closed her eyes, she remembered Raymond holding Selena's hand at the party, saying Selena was his girlfriend.

Intense jealousy overwhelmed Tessa, and when she left that day, Richard had reminded her.

"You saw it. Raymond stood up for Selena when she was in such a sorry state. He must be thinking of remarrying her. If you go after him once they're remarried, the comments in this circle won't be so friendly," Richard had said. It was despicable to break up someone's family after they'd gotten married. Tessa sneered, "So I have to do something before they remarry. I definitely won't give up."
