Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 797 Someone Like Raymond

When Selena walked into Jacob's hospital room for the second time, she almost bumped into a group of folks led by a lawyer, handing over a check.

She recognized the lawyer from way back when he delivered her divorce papers.

This had to be someone from Raymond, but what were Raymond's people doing in Jacob's room?

The lawyer stepped up to Jacob, laying out the pros and cons, basically saying it'd be better not to call the cops and that there was some cash on the table. "Mr. Ashford, here's $300,000. We hope you'll keep quiet about this," he said. Jacob, looking like he was in rough shape, pulled the blanket over himself when he saw strangers.

He didn't even get what the check was about; he just wanted to hide, scared they might take his other leg too.

Selena stood there, piecing it all together.

Yep, this was the Montague family's doing, but now they were trying to buy their way out.

She sneered, "Who wrote the check?"

The lawyer, noticing her for the first time, replied honestly, "It was Mr. Montague."

Selena wasn't shocked; Raymond was totally capable of this.
