Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 1245 Stop Testing My Patience

Just five minutes ago, Selena had left this place. She couldn't stay in one spot for too long; that guy seemed to know the area well and would soon track her down through the surveillance cameras.

She had moved to a new hiding spot, now behind the curtains at the end of the hallway.

Her heart was pounding wildly, with only one thought in her mind: just make it through the next twenty minutes.

If she died, she wouldn't be Raymond's weakness anymore, wouldn't drag him down.

He would still be the high and mighty CEO of the Montague Group, still the one favored by the heavens.

She took a few steps forward and bumped into a woman.

The woman was Lucille, who had recently collaborated with S.M. Corporation.

Selena had previously invested in Lucille's script, and Lucille was still her partner.

It wasn't until Lucille spoke that Selena recognized her voice.

Someone nearby was calling out, "Ms. Jade, so it's settled then."

"Alright, don't worry. The little addition you made to the script is good, I'll include it."

Selena grabbed Lucille's arm.

Lucille was a bit surprised, then heard her say, "Get me out of here."

A look of shock flashed in Lucille's eyes. She carefully examined Selena's outfit, then silently glanced around, choosing a blind spot in the surveillance cameras, and helped Selena into her car.

Lucille had been in the entertainment industry for many years and was extremely smart. Seeing Selena's attire, she knew she was in trouble.
