Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 1074 the Lowest Trick

Raymond found it amusing and looked at him nonchalantly.

Tessa, worried about a potential conflict between Raymond and Lawrence, held onto Lawrence with a distressed expression. "Lawrence, I'm fine. Actually, I know that Raymond doesn't really like me, maybe because I talk too much." Tessa's self-deprecation made everyone else feel it was really unfair to her.

But due to Raymond's status, no one dared to say anything.

Lawrence slowly approached, almost face-to-face with Raymond, standing just fifty inches apart.

Raymond and Lawrence were about the same height, and as they confronted each other, the air seemed to grow colder.

"Raymond, let's have a proper talk when we get back to the city," Lawrence said.

The matter of the two families' engagement indeed needed a thorough discussion.

Raymond walked past Lawrence directly, heading straight to Selena, clearly unwilling to talk.

Lawrence didn't argue with him; he knew Raymond would eventually come around.

Tessa clung to Lawrence's arm, worry etched on her face. "Lawrence, I'm sorry."

She had always been obedient around Lawrence. Whenever she sensed his anger, she would immediately apologize. This had been their dynamic since childhood, and as a result, Lawrence had always doted on her. "It's okay, Tessa; it's not your fault. Don't worry. Whatever you need, I'll make sure you get it," Lawrence reassured her.
