Chapter 442 Mrs. Montague's Fury

The next morning, Selena received a hesitant call from Fiona, who eventually disclosed that Catherine had gone to Ashbourne Manor. "Ms. Fair, Mrs. Montague has flown into a rage and insists that you return immediately."

Whenever Catherine made a house call, it typically spelled trouble.

Why should she even bother showing up just to be tormented?

No matter how much she tried to play small and meek in front of these folks, they never took a liking to her. It was better to steer clear. "Fiona, tell them I'm swamped with work. I really can't spare a moment."

Work was just an excuse, but after she hung up, indeed, Mr. Rockefeller's call came through.

"Selena, Lady Luck's smiling on you. We've got some customer returns, and a couple of surplus lots found in the warehouse. All top-notch quality, even better than the returned batch. Take a peek at the video." Aware of the discrepancies in video colors, Selena replied, "Mr. Rockefeller, how about this? I'll head out right now and swing by Ridgefield to handpick the stock, okay?"

Such returns were rare finds, with likely hundreds of hopeful people waiting in line.

Thanks to Mr. Rockefeller's previous commitment and Raymond's favor, she had a spot reserved.

He agreed on his end.

Selena wasted no time, gathered her things, and drove straight to Ridgefield.

By the time she arrived, it was noon. After inspecting several lots, she clinched an order for two surplus batches with sublime quality and had them shipped directly to New York.
