Reclaiming Her Heart

Raymond's face instantly turned dark, and he subconsciously wanted to close the door.

But Alice reached out her hand, sounding urgent.

"Mr. Montague, when I was downstairs, I happened to run into the hotel manager. Are you injured? I don't want anything. I just wanted to show my concern for you."

She had already found out which floor Raymond was on.

This floor had two presidential suites, and she happened to be staying in the room next door tonight.

Since she was staying in the same place as him, perhaps even sleeping on the same kind of pillows, she felt that the air was sweet.

She was angry with Selena in the morning, but she soon realized, as long as Raymond had a bad attitude towards the Fair family, Selena would never let go of her resentment and be with this man. It's different for Alice. She simply didn't care about Raymond's attitude towards the Fair family.

She only liked Raymond.

Alice coughed twice, and her cheeks became even redder.

"Mr. Montague,

the ointment you received needs someone to apply it on you. I'm worried that you'll injure yourself in unreachable places."

Raymond looked at the woman, deliberately revealing her cleavage and wearing light makeup. She only wore a thin coat, which was almost transparent under the corridor lights, covering nothing. Alice put her hand on the door to prevent him from closing it.

The look in Raymond's eyes could almost be considered blatant.

When it comes to adult matters, as long as one party initiates and the other doesn't refuse, it's a done deal.

But Raymond just sneered and seemed to think that the ointment was bought by her, so he threw it out directly. "Get lost."

One ruthless word, like a sharp knife, stabbed directly at Alice's chest.

Alice's face turned pale and she quickly withdrew her hand.

If she were any slower, her fingers would have been injured.

This was the first time Raymond had rejected her so mercilessly.

Alice felt very humiliated. It took her two hours just to do her makeup tonight, and it was a carefully calculated look that appeared pitiful. She even intentionally walked around downstairs and found several men to talk to, which gave her the confidence to change into a slightly transparent outfit and come over.

She didn't expect such a reaction from Raymond.

Alice felt nothing but humiliation being treated like this by someone she liked. It was like being slapped in the face multiple times.

She pursed her lips and looked down at the paper bag on the ground, and picked it up.

It was the paper bag the lobby manager was carrying, obviously meant for Raymond, and the ointment was still inside.

She glanced at the note, which only had two words: From Selena.

Her complexion instantly changed. She initially thought Selena's words about wanting to keep Raymond were just empty words, but not now that she had ointment sent to him this evening.

A coldness flashed in Alice's eyes as she returned to her room.

She had liked Raymond for several years and was determined to get him at any cost.

She sent a text message to Selena.

'Sister, I just got hurt and Mr. Montague brought me the ointment. It seems that Mr. Montague is really good to you, so he took care of me for your sake.'

She deliberately took a photo of the ointment and sent it over.

When Selena received the photo, she was packing up leftover food boxes.

She didn't know what to say when she saw the message.

She never realized before that Alice could be so shameless. She might even rival Olivia in that aspect.

But, at least Olivia was liked by Raymond, and he was willing to indulge her.

This Alice, who seemed to have no principles, went to stake out every day. Didn't she feel embarrassed?

Selena used to be polite to her, but ever since she caught onto Alice's feelings for Raymond, all she felt was disgust.

Regardless of whether or not they had feelings for each other, at least they were married on paper, and nominally, Raymond was Alice's brother-in-law.

To be so shameless as to flirt with her brother-in-law, and even show off in front of her sister...

Selena was furious in her heart.

She immediately took a screenshot of the message and sent it to James, along with a sentence.

'Alice has grown up and her first love is blossoming, but did she make a mistake in choosing the person for her first love?'
