Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 197 The Relationship between this Father and Daughter Must Collapse

As soon as the door to the room closed, Selena sat on the sofa. She felt exhausted after being harassed by Ms. Montague. Seeing Raymond's back full of wounds had taken an even greater toll on her. She wondered when this poor lie would finally end. She had to be on constant alert.

In his room, Raymond worked for a while because he couldn't lie down with the wounds on his back. In the middle of the night, when he went out, he saw Selena leaning on the sofa, looking very innocent. He frowned, thinking that their night together was completely over and after tonight, they would have to distance themselves from each other.

Aunt was right, if Grandfather found out about her existence, it wouldn't be as simple as being dragged down to the studio. He stood in front of the coffee table, looking at her peacefully, sleeping face.

She had a small face, and when her eyes were closed, she lost her plainness and appeared delicate and obedient. When she was talking to her husband on the phone just now, she was nearly bursting with sweetness.

It seemed that Alex had indeed overthought before. She had expressed her heartfelt devotion to her husband several times, and that night probably didn't leave any impression in her mind. After all, she and her husband had had countless nights like that.

Raymond's breathing became irregular again. To divert his attention, he picked up the water glass on the table and drank a sip of cold water. After swallowing, he noticed that it was the glass she had used, and there was a faint pink lip mark on the edge of the glass. Furrowing his brow, he put the glass down and entered his room without looking back.

The next morning, when Selena woke up, she found him sitting on the opposite sofa. She quickly rubbed her eyes, sat up straight, and looked at him cautiously.

She glanced at the clock hanging on the wall.

It was only six o'clock. Did he wake up this early even on his day off?
