Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 1315 She Seems to Be Able to Control My Emotions

Helen sat across from Raymond, pouring herself a glass of wine without waiting for an invitation.

"When you returned last time, I wanted to ask - what kind of woman could possibly leave you so devastated? And now you're a fugitive from Stellaria." She took a sip before continuing. "That man in there is your brother, isn't he? He's an important research figure in Stellaria. They've issued an international warrant for your arrest, which is unusual for them. The gossip back home must be intense."

Most people wouldn't have access to this information, of course. Raymond had already transferred his shares to a management trust, with John overseeing the Montague Group in his absence. Raymond wasn't concerned about business instability.

The elite circles of Silver Bay City were undoubtedly enjoying the spectacle of his downfall, but what did that matter to him now? His only focus was discovering BK's location.

"Raymond, can you tell me about her?" Helen asked softly.

Helen had known Raymond for many years. The underground fighting arena attracted the world's most beautiful women, where beauty itself was a form of currency. She had previously tried to introduce Raymond to various women, but he'd rejected them all, saying he found women uninteresting.

For him, women had always been less engaging than the streams of data flickering across his screens.

Then one day, Raymond had returned to the arena visibly troubled. That was when Helen learned that William had arranged a marriage for him and had even obtained a marriage certificate without his consent.

Helen hadn't understood his distress at the time. It was just marriage, after all, and William certainly wouldn't have chosen someone unsuitable. Wasn't it natural for someone with Raymond's exceptional genes to produce offspring?

Raymond's response had been definitive, "Helen, you don't understand. I could only ever marry Olivia."

Helen didn't know the details of his relationship with Olivia, but his declaration had been unsettlingly rational - almost as if he were following a program installed in his mind rather than speaking from genuine emotion.

If Raymond had ever wanted to defeat anyone in his life, it was Christopher - the man everyone in Silver Bay City believed had been specially favored by heaven.
