Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 725 A New Lover

The Smiths' daughter had a heart condition, but they kept her wrapped in bubble wrap. She had two brothers who totally doted on her, making it seem like the perfect family. Selena looked down. "Mr. Smith, even though you say that, you still care about her, right?"

Richard, rocking a gray suit, ordered a coffee, but Selena stopped him. "Maybe skip the coffee at night."

He grinned, "She's my sister, of course, I'm on her side. But lately, her attitude's been getting out of hand. My older brother and mom spoil her rotten, but I think it's too much. She used to sneak out and play despite her heart condition. One time, she got into it with a celeb and had a heart attack right there. The celeb got blacklisted worldwide, even though it was my sister who started it."

Richard's face scrunched up as he talked. "My older brother and mom's love for her is just over the top. This time when I went back, she threw a fit 'cause I couldn't get Mr. Butler, and nothing could calm her down, so I had to leave." Even though Richard seemed to be complaining about his sister, you could tell he still cared a lot.

Selena suddenly felt lost for words, never having lived that kind of life. These were rich people problems. She just sipped her lemon water quietly. Richard always had this laid-back vibe. He looked at Selena and suddenly asked, "Did it bug you when we talked about my sister and Raymond?" "No," Selena said.

"Penny, if my sister comes to Silver Bay City, you and Raymond are done. She's spoiled, and my older brother and mom will give her whatever she wants." "Your sister's lucky," Selena said.

'To have so many people who love her,' Selena thought.

Richard caught the sadness in her voice and slid a glass of juice her way. "She's just lucky to be born into our family. If she had that attitude in a regular family, she'd have been kicked to the curb long ago."

Selena just pressed her lips together and stayed quiet.
