Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 407: I'll Be Your Boyfriend

Alice stood there, laughing wildly, not forgetting to remind her.

"Dad is giving me twenty percent of his shares, and you have to manage the Fair family. I just sit back and collect money. Can't you see, you're being used? It's sad, really. Twenty years of companionship, and still, it's no match for blood ties." "Selena, nobody cares about you, not even Raymond."

Selena didn't respond to her, just drove off.

Looking at Alice's reflection in the rearview mirror, she knew at this moment Alice had truly won.

Alice was right about one thing; she had indeed been used.

But the gratitude she owed for being raised and the double grace of Barbara weighed on her, leaving her unable to retort.

While driving back to Rose Garden, she received a call from a courier company.

"Miss Fair, good morning. We have a gift for you from a few years ago, specifically instructed to be delivered today. May I have your current address, so we can send it over?"
