Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 847 She Did It for the Money

"Grace, think it over again. Raymond's overseas now, and you've seen the shape he's in. Dude's not cut out to run the Montague Group anymore." Elbert adjusted his clothes, keeping that smug smile plastered on his face.

"I'll talk to Dad. Once he's on board, the shares you hold will just be a cherry on top for me. The deal I offer then won't be as sweet," he added.

People were selfish. Even if Grace still ha a soft spot for Raymond, she was gotta think about her own spot in the Montague family.

Elbert's words left her speechless. After he left, she bolted out of the Montague Group building.

But she didn't hit up Raymond. Instead, she headed straight to where Selena was.

Selena was at her company, still going through candidates for supporting roles in her next show. After wrapping up, she called out, "Ann."

But Ann was a no-show. When she asked around, she found out Ann hadn't come to work today.

Selena was so wrapped up in her work that she just now noticed Ann was MIA.

She immediately called Ann, but got no answer.

She started to freak out. Ann had recently found out her fiancé was cheating. Now she wasn't picking up her phone. Was her recent good mood just a front? Was she still struggling to get over it? Selena quickly left the building and drove to the place where Ann and Brody lived.

Ann wasn't there, and neither was Brody. He was probably off sucking up to Jessica. But Brody's mom was there, and she flipped out as soon as she heard Selena was looking for Ann.
