Chapter 712 He Doesn't Want to Argue with Her

On Christmas Eve, Selena knew Raymond was coming back, so she hit the mall to snag some Christmas stickers for Manston Manor.

Raymond hadn't hit her up all week, and she was swamped with her company's hiring process. She was so busy she totally spaced on Christmas.

It wasn't until John called, saying he'd be home tonight, that she rushed to the mall in the evening to grab some Christmas stickers.

Just an hour after she slapped them up, she heard a car engine outside the courtyard.

Selena plopped on the sofa, eyeing the table full of dishes the servants whipped up, and shut her laptop.

Raymond got out of the car and scoped the place; Manston Manor hadn't changed a bit.

He'd pictured a big Christmas tree and tons of decorations on his way back.

He'd been abroad for the past few years and hadn't really done Christmas right.

To be real, he never really had.

Because he got the news of Christopher's accident around Christmas, and every year around this time, Abigail and Catherine would end up crying, making it tough for the family to enjoy Christmas. Plus, when Christopher was still around, the family's focus was always on him. Raymond was in the military back then, and Christmas in the military wasn't exactly festive.

He hadn't celebrated Christmas much, but seeing how others did on his way back made Manston Manor feel even colder and lonelier.
