Chapter 477 Every Interaction with Raymond He glanced at Raymond, who was sitting in the office chair.
Alex had cto see the director hired by the Montague family because they had decided to invest in his script. This was part of their venture into the entertainment industry. This also gave Alex an opportunity to meet with Raymond. "Your wife is quite impressive," he commented.
At that moment, Raymond was on a call with overseas contacts, gesturing for Alex to find a seat.
Seeing that Raymond was busy, Alex kept quiet and sat down on a nearby sofa.
But Raymond's call lasted for two hours, issuing instructions non-stop while furrowing his brows deeply.
John also walked into the office.
"Mr. Montague, the plane departs in three hours," he announced. Raymond put down his phone and rubbed his temple with his hand.
"Tell the senior management over there to wait," he instructed.
John nodded and began organizing sdocuments on the side.
Only then did Raymond turn to Alex. "What were you saying just now?" But Alex didn't continue about the family situation. It was clear to anyone that something had gone wrong with the company overseas.

"Yes." Raymond had already stood up and was heading toward his restroom to shower and change. Alex tactfully refrained from further disturbing him, and within half an hour, Raymond had finished getting ready.
Just as he was about to get into the car, he glanced at his phone one more time.
Aside from business partners and company executives, there were no calls from her.
A flicker of indifference passed through his eyes, and he simply turned off his phone. Out of sight, out of mind.
He told John, "The trip should take two days. Book the return flight for two days from now." "Understood, Mr. Montague." Raymond didn't inform anyone about his trip abroad.
Naturally, Selena was also unaware.
She had intended to return to Rose Garden, but Fiona called her.
"Miss Fair, last night the security at Ashbourne Manor detected someone attempting to break in. Mr. Montague Sr. bought you that villa, and it has never been targeted by thieves these past years, so I thought maybe something happened recently at your end," she said.
Selena immediately becalert. She had been so busy dealing with company affairs that she had almost forgotten the warning from her teacher, as well as the burglary incident at the Fair family villa.
If no money was missing, what exactly were those people searching for? And why were they targeting her? Her brows knitted together as she quickly checked the surveillance cameras inside her house only to find them broken. She distinctly remembered installing them perfectly.
She lived alone and now knowing that people had been sneaking around her residence made Selena feel uneasy, as if someone was watching her from all angles.
She didn't even have the courage to enter her bedroom, always fearing someone might be hiding under her bed - a terrifying prospect.
She hurriedly led Max away and hastily left the place.
But she had nowhere to go now. If these people really were after her, then the Fair family villa was no longer safe, but Ashbourne Manor remained a secure place for the tbeing. After all, it was a safe haven prepared by Mr. Montague Sr. with extensive security measures.
The only downside of Ashbourne Manor was the likelihood of running into Raymond.
However, compared to her own life, Raymond didn't seem so frightening anymore.
Selena had just gotten into her car when she noticed an advertisement for feminine hygiene products not far away.
Normally, she wouldn't care, but suddenly her hand tightened on the steering wheel.
She remembered that her period was already half a month late...
With everything that had been happening lately, starting from the revelation that she was not James' biological daughter, she had been constantly on the move.
It was only now that she realized how late she was.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPanic began to set in as Selena gripped the steering wheel tightly.
She pulled over at a pharmacy, bent down to comfort Max and saw an listening device under the chair. The e content is on novelenglish.net! The blinking light looked like a sinister, crooked smile.
Her scalp tingled, and she compulsively checked the entire car, even the trunk, fearing someone E might be hiding there. Thankfully, other than the listening device, there was nothing.
Her palms were sweaty as she entered the pharmacy, her mind still in turmoil.
"I need to buy a pregnancy test," she said.
Standing under the glaring lights, she barely managed to naged to recover from her е initial panie. The nurse glanced at her before fetching the item.
While holding the pregnancy test, Selena felt as if she weighed a thousand pounds.
She had taken precautions each tshe lay with Raymond.
It wasn't possible that she was pregnant...
If she was, then everything would be thrown into chaos.
