Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 967 Love Is Selfish

John wanted to stick up for Selena, but he was just as clueless about why she bailed.

Honestly, John felt a bit let down. He thought Selena would hang in there a bit longer. Even if she couldn't do much, at least it would show she cared about Raymond. But now, she threw in the towel way too soon, making him wonder if she ever really liked Raymond.

The room got quiet, and Raymond stared out the window.

It was already getting dark outside.

That night, a lot of folks were gonna be up all night.

Everyone was dying to know what would happen with the Montague family and what fate had in store for Raymond.

Would the unbeatable Raymond really fall?

Everyone wanted time to fly, except Raymond, who watched the clock every day, his eyes getting darker.

A day later, Selena had already driven to this small town. She got lost on the way, so she didn't get there until the evening. She called the number that had texted her.

No answer, so she found a bed and breakfast to crash at.

At seven in the evening, she tried the number again. This time it connected for a few seconds but then hung up.

She sat by the window, watching the river with a few boats on it.
