Chapter 121 Work is not as important as wife He pressed his lips tightly together and answered the call with his uninjured hand, contemplating how to approach the conversation. On the other end, Mr. Montague Sr's words of relief cthrough.

"Raymond, you did well this time. You've finally grown up. If you don't ctonight, it's fine. Grandpa won't blyou." Raymond narrowed his eyes, not knowing why he said that. After all, in their previous phone conversation, grandpa mentioned Selena within three sentences.

But tonight, it seemed that he had no plans to bring it up. Could it be because of the successful acquisition that just took place.

Grandpa seldom paid attention to the business world, instead focusing on coordinating with the hospital for treatment, enjoying his retirement. If it wasn't for the recently completed acquisition, Raymond couldn't think of anything else that would make him so happy. So he naturally responded: "Grandpa, this is what I should do. I will continue to work hard." But these words had a different meaning in Mr. Montague Sr's ears. He was already frustrated tonight because Raymond seemed reluctant to go pick up Selena and even mentioned working overtime.

Where is a wife more important than work? Mr. Montague Sr had been waiting for Raymond and Selena to arrive so that he could introduce Selena's identity to others in a grand manner.

These past few years have been unfair to Selena, as there are still many people in New York who don't know her identity. Since she has married into the Montague family, no one should dare to bully her anymore.

So when Mr. Montague Sr saw Raymond's delay, he only felt annoyed. But now, hearing this good news, he happily believed that his grandson had finally turned around.

"Raymond, I thought you were just trying to foolwhen you said you would work hard. Grandpa was wrong to blyou. Keep it up." Raymond breathed a sigh of relief. He thought that the old man rarely paid attention to the company and hadn't mentioned that woman, so his anxiety lessened.

"I understand." After hanging up the phone, a look of surprise appeared on Mr. Montague Sr's face. This was more effective than any elixir. It seemed that by the end of this year, he would be able to hold his grandson.

He never expected that his conversation with Raymond was on completely different wavelengths.

Raymond no longer cared about the fact that grandpa didn't mention Selena anymore.

Her face relaxed a lot as she continued to watch the doctor sewing. Outside the door, Selena looked at Jacob, who was sitting next to her, and her face darkened.

"What do you think you're doing? Disappearing for so many years and coming to New York to be a beggar?" Jacob knew he was in the wrong and impatiently scratched his hair.

"Have you met my parents?" "My uncle and aunt have been waiting for you to cback, but you weren't there. Megan has been taking advantage of the situation at home. It was you who insisted on marrying her, but now you have left your parents and wife in the county and ran away. Are you still a man, Jacob?" Jacob was wearing worn-out clothes, but they were clean. When he heard Selena's words, he becirritated. "Can't you just pretend you haven't seen me? I really am not a man. My parents shouldn't have given birth toin the first place!" Seeing his hostile emotions, Selena furrowed her brows. "You have to go back and see them. The elderly couple at hwait for your phone call every day. Megan...

|| "Don't mention that woman to me!" Jacob continued to irritably scratch his hair and glanced at the hospital ward. "Anyway, I can't afford that man's medical expenses. You said I'm a beggar, now that you're fine, I'll leave." He stood up and was about to leave.

"Jacob!" Selena grabbed his arm and her brows furrowed tightly.

"How did you beclike this?"

When she lived with her uncle and aunt, Jacob was a relatively filiahson, relative and he was also shy and introverted. How could he have changed so much in just a few years?

"Uncle and aunt are afraid that you won't find a wife in the future, so they treated Megan well. Last time, when Megan took Uncle's car and left him to walk, he collapsed by the roadside F from heatstroke. He even toldnot to blher, saying that only she was willing to marry you. The incidents of you embezzling customer money and borrowing high-interest loans have spread. In the eyes of our uncle and aunt, only Megan stands by you." When Jacob heard these words, his throat choked, and he gritted his teeth. "That bitch." Selena took a deep breath, feeling suffocated by his appearance. Just as she was about to speak, her uncle unexpectedly called.

When Jacob saw the flashing nickname, he was almostinstinctively going to escape, but Selena held onto him. "At least say something to your uncle!" "Get lost! Selena, who do you think you are? Your family's affairs are much more complicated than ours. Mind your own business!"
