Chapter 382 A Sharp Needle Pierces the Heart Bert caught Lucas, and the PW Group people were still in the hospital, even if they wouldn't let the doctors harm them.
But as long as their father was conscious, they would continue to say things that hurt, fearing he wouldn't last another two months. Thinking of this, tears welled up in Selena's eyes.
Originally, Raymond wanted to make things difficult for her, like resolving Bert's situation only after completing the ten times.
But when he looked up and saw the sense of brokenness emanating from her, as if she was trying to restrain a thorny growth, his inner frustration resurfaced.
He took out his phone and called John.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Give the information about Bert's misdeeds to the police. I want to see news of PW Group being sealed by tomorrow at nine o'clock." After speaking, he hung up the phone.
Selena was somewhat surprised. She thought he would only hand over the information and require her to negotiate with the police, but he handled everything in one go. Raymond's gaze shifted towards her, unable to resist asking.
"Feeling better?" Selena was taken aback, then blushed and looked away uneasily.
"Yes." Raymond remembered the tat the manor when he couldn't bear to torment her and stopped when she said she didn't want to continue.
He never expected her to forget everything once she woke up.
Getting up, since he knew she was in such a hurry for Lucas, there was no need to show too much tenderness. "Meetat the hotel at eight tonight." Selena stiffened, and her fingers curled up on her side.
Unexpectedly, she had hurt herself somewhere and had applied medicine when she cover. The medicine had been bought at the hospital on the day they first ended things. She never expected to use it again. Now, upon hearing that he wanted to tonight, her back instinctively tensed, and her palms becsweaty. But she had no bargaining power in this matter. She swallowed nervously. "Alright." "Is there anything else?" A cold air seemed to envelop him, causing his gaze to withdraw. Selena lowered her eyelashes, trying her best to remain calm.
"No, Mr. Montague, you can go about your business." As she was about to leave the room, his voice reached her again.
"You have the hotel room key, don't you?" She was the last one to leave the room, with the key still on her person.
"Um." She replied, not hearing any further instructions from him. Just as she was about to leave, she heard his cold voice. "Dress nicely. You're married, you should know what men like." Selena felt as though a sharp needle had pierced her heart. Her face turned pale instantly, but she didn't look back.
Her lips twitched twice before she hoarsely said, "Alright." Raymond had said those words merely to embarrass her. To remind her that she was already married, yet here she was, with another man, and she had to wear that type of clothing to please him. Selena understood this very well, so after agreeing to his last statement, she quickly left, her head down.
When John entered the room, he ran into her as she entered the elevator.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe called out, "Miss Fair." Selena quickly perked up and smiled at him.
"Mr. Walker." John nodded and, after entering Raymond's office, couldn't help but comment, "I just met Miss Fair, and she didn't look too well." Approaching Raymond, he noticed that the CEO was lost in thought, even holding the documents the wrong way. Only upon hearing John's comment did he lower his head and simply respond, "Hmm." He continued to look at the documents, and John wasn't sure whether or not to remind him that they were upside down. After thinking it over, he decided to hold his tongue.
After getting into the car, Selena still felt a discomfort in her chest.
However, after sreflection, she self-mockingly thought, what use is there for this intangible dignity when the deal has already been done?
Thinking about Raymond's instructions, she realized she didn't have that kind of clothing and had to buy it herself. Parking the car in front of that kind of store, Selena felt guilty as she saw the colorful lights. She nervously gripped the steering wheel, afraid that she might unexpectedly run into someone she knew.
When she got out of the car, she kept her head down and briskly walked O into the store. 2. The saleselerk was a middle-aged woman whose eyes immediately lit up upon seeing Selena. "Beautiful lady, what kind are you looking for?" Selena had no knowledge in this area and couldn't utter a word. She stammered, "Anything is fine."
The middle-aged woman glared at her and said, "How can you be so casual about this? You need to m consider your husband's interests. Take a look at these, this one is youthful, this one is fiery, and this one is a fishnet, easy to tear." Selena had little experience in this area, her cheeks turning red as she listened. "Just... the innocent type."
