Chapter 257 She's Been Neglected by Raymond James had been transferred to a regular ward, but he still wore an oxygen mask and hadn't woken up yet. The wound on his head had been wrapped in gauze, and he looked more than ten years older and haggard. Selena asked the doctor beside her, "When will my dad wake up?" "Miss Fair, Mr. Shen has always had poor health, and this the suffered a great deal. It's uncertain when he'll wake up. It could be today, or it could be a month later." Selena's eyes reddened at once.
After hearing that James had been transferred to a regular ward, Beatrice was extremely restless. She was currently at the Fair family's company and immediately found Kenny, her voice filled with fear. "What should we do? Selena found two bodyguards from somewhere and they've been guarding the ICU. I can't find an opportunity." Kenny's expression darkened, not expecting James' luck to be so strong that he survived even after such an incident.
"Beatrice, don't worry. What's important now is to keep Selena busy. As long as she can't go to the hospital, the situation will be in our favor." "James, we have a chance to make a move now," Beatrice said in a desperate tone, her lips turning pale. She had been struggling for the past few days, feeling on the verge of collapse every tshe saw Selena.

Now that both you and Nick are in the company, and Selena doesn't even know which way the company's door opens, we can secretly maneuver to see if we can get all the company's stocks and then have Nick make a move on Selena." "It would be best if he can seduce her and have her on our side, then we won't have to fear anything," Kenny said as he held Beatrice in his arms, his eyes shining with cunning." "When James wakes up, tell him that Selena doesn't even care about him being a father. He'll surely be infuriated," Kenny continued. Beatrice was easily swayed by his words and instantly agreed, thinking that it made sense. She immediately went to find Nick.
Nick was also anxious. Even if he wanted to confront Kenny, it wasn't the right time, as the three of them were already tangled together like insects on a thread.
"Nick, find an opportunity to make a move on Selena. After being neglected by Raymond for so many years, she's probably feeling empty. Satisfy her, and she'll listen to you," Beatrice suggested. Nick knew he couldn't delay any longer, or else once James woke up and brought in lawyers, their entire family would be done for. His eyes narrowed as he remembered seeing Selena buying those pills at the hospital. She probably played around in private, pretending to be innocent.
A burst of heat surged through his body as he realized Selena's face was indeed beautiful, with a unique temperament. He had to cup with a plan right away.
When Selena was about to return to the hotel, she received a call from the construction team, requesting her presence at the site. She quickly drove over and noticed that the workers at the site seemed nervous. A bad premonition formed in her mind as her brows furrowed.
Entering Manhattan's first floor, when she saw the leaning pillar in the middle, she felt a surge of heat rising up. This pillar wasn't load-bearing, so it wouldn't pose a threat to the entire building even if something happened.
But this pillar was related to selements in her design plans, and now that it was leaning, it was obvious that the workers had accidentally affected it while working on other walls.
This pillar definitely had to be removed completely, which meant her original design plans would need sadjustments. This kind of mistake shouldn't have happened in the first place.

Selena's expression turned cold as she heard the foreman say, "Miss Selena, we are truly sorry. The worker responsible for smashing that wall has been going through a lot of personal issues recently and wasn't in the right state of mind. He accidentally used too much force and affected this pillar."
Cornerstone Construction, a well-respected renovation company in the industry, had ever.encountered such a situation before. The foreman's face was filled with guilt and a hint of fear. "If Ms. Selena needs any compensation, she can go to Cornerstone Construction to negotiate with the higher- ups," the person said.
Selena didn't say anything, but she still emitted a cold aura.
This couldn't be resolved through negotiation. The problem now was that her previous design needed to be changed!
This pillar was involved in the details of this whole area. At that time, she had even planned out the lighting and shadows. Now that the pillar was Ο gone, the sunlight would change. She definitely couldn't use the original design anymore. As the owner, Raymond had a high pursuit of art, and he could discern even the slightest differences.
