Chapter 957 But You Must Be the Best-Looking One in Your Family "Nope." Raymond's voice was flat, clearly not in the mood to chat about Christopher.

Selena had never pried into Raymond and Christopher's relationship, but she always knew the Montague family favored Christopher, leaving Raymond in the shadows. She let the topic drop and sat quietly in the passenger seat.

When they got to the Montague Villa, she followed Raymond upstairs.

They stopped in front of a room that was locked from the outside, a sign no one had been in there for ages.

Raymond went to get the key from the butler, who couldn't help but say, "Mr. Montague, please don't mess with anything inside. Mrs. Abigail Montague used to go in there a lot." Everyone knew Abigail doted on Christopher the most.

Raymond unlocked the door, and a thick layer of dust hit them.

The curtains were drawn, making the room super dark.

Just as Selena was about to step in, the butler stopped her. "Ms. Fair, Mrs. Abigail Montague once said only a few Montague family members are allowed in this room." The hint was clear: even sMontagues couldn't enter, so Selena, not being family, should wait outside. Thinking of Abigail's past attitude, Selena decided to stay put.

Even though Abigail had left Silver Bay City, she could cback anytime, and Selena didn't want any trouble. Raymond pulled open the curtains and walked to a shelf displaying Christopher's gifts to him. They were all small trinkets.

Raymond checked each one but found no clues about the documents. His eyes landed on a photo of him and Christopher.

Raymond and Christopher had ssimilar features, but Christopher had a softer vibe, making people feel warm and comfy around him, while Raymond had a colder aura. Christopher was only two years older than him.

Raymond didn't linger on the photo and instead asked Selena, "Do you think I look like him?" But he got no response for a bit. When he turned around, he saw Selena standing by the door, not having entered.

Selena had heard Raymond's question but hadn't seen the photo. From her spot, she could only see Raymond holding it.

Selena replied, "Since you're brothers, there must be sresemblance." Raymond casually tossed the photo aside and said in an even colder tone, "But sometimes I feel like he's my mom's real son, and I'm not." Kids who were ignored often felt that way.

Selena's heart tightened for a moment, and she quickly said, "But you must be the best-looking one in your family." With that, Raymond's face lit up with a smile.

His lips curved up, and after confirming he had checked everything, he sighed, "Nothing here, let's go." He closed the lid and walked towards Selena at the door.

Selena could tell he had felt spressure entering the room, but now he seemed much more relaxed. The door was locked again, and Raymond returned the key to the butler.

The butler was very worried about William and couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Raymond Montague, what about Mr. William Montague..." Raymond said, "Grandpa left voluntarily to cooperate with them. It's tough to investigate; all the surveillance was avoided. My people haven't found any info yet." The worry on the butler's face deepened, and Raymond tried to comfort him, "He has his own reasons." The butler said nothing more, just sighed.

Raymond and Selena then left the Montague Villa.

Raymond called Paul, "I'm sure there's nothing in those things, and I haven't gotten any gifts from him since I becan adult) They were an att childhood items, very simple, and couldn't hide any info." Paul had been holding out great hope, but hearing this, he could only smile bitterly, "Christopher is indeed a genius. If he wanted to hide something, no one would find it."

Raymond was already back in the car and, upon hearing this, dropped his gaze, "Maybe we just don't know him well enough. I'm his brother, and I only recently heard he could love a woman so much." Geniuses were all a bit crazy, and crazy people didn't love.

Christopher was truly perfect, trognompassion capable of compassion for the world, willing to give up his life for a woman.

Raymond's lips twitched, "In every way, it seems I've lost." As he said this, he looked at Selena beside him.

All his bitter thoughts vanished in an instant because he had Selena.

With her, it felt like he had won the whole world.
