Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 558 The Experience of a Man as Capable as Raymond Selena just listened, feeling shudders all over her body.

These people are all beasts! The youngest son was still crying, curled up.

"The truth is like this, don't hit me, it hurts." The bodyguard asked again, "After the incident, did you cremate the body?" "Yes, my brother smothered her with a pillow. We held down her limbs together, while my father throttled her as well. However, she was dressed in a high-collared garment, leaving no visible marks, hence the swift cremation of the body. Currently, my grandparents persist in urging my father to marry that woman. When the tcomes, both sets of properties will belong to our family, with one for each of my brother and me." No one could have fathomed such a barbaric and inhumane act in this world if they hadn't heard it firsthand. Moreover, there was currently no evidence.

The legal system always revolved around the importance of evidence. Unfortunately, the most crucial evidence had been impeccably dealt with.

Even if this family was disgusting, they won't be punished.

Selena didn't want to stay here any longer, feeling like even the air was dirty.

After getting back into the car, she felt like throwing up, and Ann, who cout with her, also had a pale face.

In such a case, as a woman, one can better understand the cruelty and despair within.

Ann also vomited in response, this incident truly upending one's perceptions; those who committed such deeds exhibited a complete lack of conscience.

Back in the car, Selena signaled the bodyguard to take the two away.

The car stopped outside Ashbourne Manor. Selena's face didn't look good, sighing heavily.

"Ms. Fair, is this truly the resolution we've cto? Are we planning to simply pay up tomorrow?" Even if it amounts to thousands of dollars, it would still translate to profits for Steven.

"Tomorrow, we will compensate them with fifteen thousand dollars for now. I will devise a plan moving forward, so you needn't worry," said Selena.

The next morning, Steven indeed arrived at the company early, demanding money as before, sporting the sarrogant countenance.

"Selena, if you don't givethe money, I will continue distributing flyers near the Fair Group. I will make sure everyone knows the true nature of your company!" Steven threatened.

Selena frowned and instructed the assistant to bring a contract in a calm tone. "Today, I'll give you fifteen thousand. After receiving the sum, you are not allowed to use any platform or means to amplify the impact of this matter. Fifteen thousand dollars to settle this affair." Steven shouted, "Fifteen thousand? Are you trying to brushoff like a beggar? We're talking about a human life here. Is a person's life only valued at this amount of money?" Selena stood up, slamming her hand heavily on the table.

"Shall I recount the scene of your crthat day? You were caught having an affair with your mistress by Lily, and then you conspired to kill Lily. You choked her, your eldest son suffocated her face with a pillow, and others helped restrain her body. Steven, if you persist in causing a scene, you won't be getting your hands on this fifteen thousand!" Steven's expression changed drastically upon hearing her words. With only a few people present at the scene who had agreed to keep the secret so that everyone could continue living a good life, who could have possibly leaked the secret? Feeling a sense of fear creeping in, worried that he might end up with nothing in the end, Steven quickly signed the contract and walked away with the fifteen thousand cheque.

While sitting in her office chair, Selena was feeling utterly miserable inside.

Meanwhile, Steven felt light on his feet, having just earned fifteen thousand, profiting from the life of a contemptible woman.

With Lily now deceased and with money in his hands, Steven felt that he could live however he pleased. After Steven left, Selena made a call to her associates at the company.

"You can proceed now. Make sure that woman understands that this is an incredibly profitable business, and initially, offer her stempting benefits." The woman she referred to was none other than Steven's mistress.

Selena had already had someone look into her information. She loved gambling and had been lucky in recent years, winning tens of thousands, which is how she got those two houses. As for the rest of the money, she obtained it by having affairs outside, letting other people's husbands support her.

Her usual attire was alluring, the type that men over thirty liked the most.

She was easy to tame, and with her experience in such matters, anyone would be willing to spend money to be with her.

She had maintained the longest relationship with Steven, so she had sgenuine feelings for him. Since she loved gambling, Selena decided to let her gamble to her heart's content this time.

After instructing this matter, Selena felt somewhat relieved of her pent-up anger.

Hearing about such things firsthand, as a woman, she had a restless night last night.

She wished for Steven and his group to receive retribution soon.

However, in real life, those who have lost their conscience often live the best.

If she hadn't confronted Steven, he would have truly escaped the law this time.

Next, while keeping an eye on the situation, Selena immersed herself in the business transformation of the Fair Group.

A month flew by in the blink of an eye. Selena's hand had healed, and Raymond had long been discharged from the hospital, yet he had not Γ reached out to her.

Ironically, Selena found herself feeling much more relaxed. However, m occasionally at night, memories of the tender moments they shared would inevitably cause a warmth to surge within her.

After all, having experienced a man as capable as Raymond, it was impossible for anyone not to om reminisce about the intimate times spent together. On his end, Raymond purposefully refrained from contacting her. As a result, after a month had passed without Selena making the call, he grew increasingly anxious.
