Chapter 996 Being the Backup Boyfriend? Raymond spun around, glaring at Nathan with a dangerous look. "Did you do this, Nathan?" Selena quickly grabbed his hand, but the sudden movement made her wince in pain.
Raymond stopped, scooped her up, and headed straight for his car.
Once inside, he raised the partition and signaled John to drive.
John didn't waste any tand drove straight to Manston Manor.
In the backseat, Raymond gently pulled down Selena's collar to check the bruises on her shoulder.
Her shoulder was a mess of bruises, clear evidence of Nathan's cruelty.
"I've got sArnica, but it's gonna sting a bit," Raymond said, his eyes fixed on her bruises.

Raymond didn't push it and gave her sspace.
The car ride was tense and silent.
When they arrived at Manston Manor, Raymond got out first and opened the door for her.
Selena's torn collar forced her to cover her chest to avoid exposing herself.
Upstairs, he handed her spajamas.
Both of them were filthy, covered in mud.
Raymond even went into the bathroom to adjust the water temperature. "Take a shower first, then we'll deal with the medicine." In the mirror, Selena saw her body below the chest was caked in yellowish mud, her clothes a mess, and her hair tangled.
She stepped under the hot water, wanting to wash her hair too.
But lifting her arm was too painful, pulling on her shoulder injury.
She couldn't grip the shampoo bottle properly, and it slipped to the floor.
Completely naked, she tried to bend down to pick it up, but her back injury flared up.
After several failed attempts, she gave up.
Hearing the commotion, Raymond pushed open the bathroom door.
The room was steamy, but her bruises stood out.
He quickly walked in, picked up the bottle, squeezed sshampoo into his hand, and brought over a small stool.

Selena's face turned bright red. She wanted to cover herself but felt it was pointless since they'd been intimate before. Still, the situation was awkward. She reached for a towel to cover up a bit, but the pain made her dizzy, and she stumbled into his arms.
Raymond's body tensed up, catching a faint whiff of her scent.
He thought, 'When was the last twe were close like this? It's been a while.' His hands instinctively went to her waist. She felt as slender as ever, maybe even thinner.
Feeling his hands on her waist, Selena froze.
The water kept running, steam filling the room. Neither of them spoke, waiting for the other to make a move. After what felt like forever, Raymond said in a rough voice, "Sit down and don't move." Selena lowered her eyes and sat on the stool, not bothering with the towel anymore.
He squeezed more shampoo into his hand, glanced at her smooth back, and started washing her hair. The more he washed, the angrier and more frustrated he got.
He thought, 'You have feelings for another guy. When I was in trouble, first was you ran to your first love. What am I now? Just the backup?' His hands unconsciously applied more pressure, pulling her hair and making her cry out in pain.
