Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 921 This Sentence Is a Double-Edged Sword

Raymond wheeled himself closer and grabbed Selena's hand, which was still wrapped around Brenda's throat.

Selena was pretty much out of steam, so it wasn't hard to stop her.

Brenda was about to pass out, but seeing Raymond gave her a jolt of energy. She croaked, "Mr. Montague, help me. Selena's trying to kill me. Think of the baby, please save me." Bringing up the baby was like twisting a knife in Selena's heart.

Raymond's face went dark.

Brenda kept going, "I knew you wouldn't let me die. I'm carrying your baby. Selena wants to kill our baby. She's so cruel, just like that dead dog. Mr. Montague, our baby's life is worth more than that dog's." "Shut up!" Raymond's voice was cold, like a blade cutting through Brenda.

Normally, Brenda would be scared stiff of him. But she had just stared death in the face, and now she was desperate to survive. So she kept talking about the baby, hoping it would save her. Raymond ordered someone to gag Brenda.

Brenda couldn't say another word, her mouth filling with blood, but she kept her eyes locked on Raymond and Selena, trying to push her belly out as much as she could.

Selena suddenly snapped back to reality. For a moment, she really had wanted to kill Brenda, almost forgetting about the baby.

But once she was clear-headed, the pain only got worse.

Selena's face went ghostly pale, and she wished she could tear out her aching heart.
