Chapter 1084 He Was Unusually Silent and Calm "Grandpa." Raymond held his hand, his voice calm, but his eyes filled with pain.

Raymond's young hand tightly gripped William's aged hand, and for a moment, clarity returned to William's eyes. "Don't be with Selena. Raymond, promise me," William pled.

William's body tried to lift itself, but after rising a few inches, it slowly fell back down.

He clutched Raymond's hand tightly, his cloudy eyes revealing no emotion. "Promise me." He struggled to say the words, his blurred vision fixed on Raymond.

Raymond was silent for a moment before responding, "Why not?" Raymond truly didn't understand what was going on."Promise me, promise me," William repeated.

William's expression began to show pain, and Raymond quickly held his hand. "I promise you, Grandpa. I promise you." As soon as he finished speaking, the doctors rushed in from outside.

William's gaze remained fixed on him, and he murmured, "I'm sorry." The old hand in Raymond's grasp suddenly went limp.

Raymond held on tightly as the doctors tried to resuscitate him, but he felt as if the world had becsurreal, unable to hear what they were saying. His eyes were locked on William's face, watching a tear slide down his wrinkled cheek.

It was then that Raymond noticed how haggard William had becduring his absence.

Raymond's trembling fingers reached out, trying to wipe away the tear, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't reach it.

An hour later, Raymond heard the doctor say, "I'm sorry, Mr. Raymond Montague, we did our best." Raymond sat there in a daze, clutching William's hand, unwilling to let go.

The doctors didn't dare to speak, silently removing their masks and allowing those waiting outside to cin.

Raymond sat there, feeling as if people were coming and going, coming and going, until finally, a white cloth was draped over William's face.

"Raymond," Carter said softly, coming to stand beside him and placing a reassuring hand on his shoulder. Everyone in the Montague family knew that Raymond was closest to William.

Since Raymond wasn't highly esteemed within the Montague family, most people favored Christopher. But Raymond had always remained by William's side.

Now that William had passed away, it was clear that no one was more devastated than Raymond.

Carter patted his shoulder once more before withdrawing his hand, feeling as if he had touched a statue.

Raymond's body was rigid, and he continued to clutch William's hand, unable to let go. The other members of the Montague family also arrived, saying they needed to discuss William's funeral. They talked for a long time, but Raymond remained seated, not saying a word.

He neither cried nor showed any sadness on his face.

Compared to the others who were sobbing uncontrollably by William's bedside, he was unusually silent and calm.

Everyone was watching him, and someone even whispered, "Didn't he grow up by Mr. William Montague's sideb How can he not shed a single tear?" But the voice was too soft for Raymond to hear.

Even if he had heard it, Raymond probably wouldn't have said anything.

Raymond simply stood up, glanced few ༢ at the body covered by the white cloth, and after a few seconds of e silence, began making phone calls to arrange William's funeral. Then Raymond walked past everyone and left the room. Carter watched Raymond's back, feeling a lump in his throat, unable to utter a word.

Carter had known Raymond for many years and knew that the calmerm Raymond appeared, the more intense his emotions were.
