Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 976 Congratulations, You're Completely Out

Tessa rushed over to help Raymond, even though she was feeling under the weather. She looked so dedicated. Everyone started teasing them, but Raymond, who was leaning on her, just kept his eyes down and stayed quiet. At that moment, everyone seemed to forget about Selena, like she was just a side character in Raymond's story. Tessa quickly fit in with the group, and with her status, she sat right next to Raymond without any hesitation. Raymond didn't say a word, just leaned back slowly, his Adam's apple bobbing a bit.

He was already a bit tipsy. He even pulled out his phone and couldn't resist calling Selena again.

This time, someone picked up, but it was a man's voice, "Hey, this is Mario. Selena's phone. What's up?"

Raymond's eyes widened, feeling like he just got dunked in ice water. Even his drunkenness faded a bit, leaving him cold and sober. "Who are you?" he blurted out, the name sounding oddly familiar.

Then it hit him this was the guy Selena mentioned when she was in the hospital, Max's old owner, her first love.

Mario replied, "I'm Mario. You must be Mr. Montague?"

Hearing that, Raymond felt a wave of embarrassment wash over him.

He didn't need to say anything more; he knew he had already lost.

Raymond's heart felt like it was being squeezed by an invisible hand, making it hard to breathe.

The voice on the other end spoke again, "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up. She's already resting."
