Chapter 1465 Raymond is Looking for You
Selena stared into his eyes, trying to figure out if he was faking it.
Mario was always up to something, and last night he had suddenly covered her mouth and tried to drag her away.
She stared at him for a full minute, and Mario just looked back at her innocently.
"Selena, it hurts."
He raised his hand and pointed to his arm.
Selena's eyes widened when she saw that the area once covered in needle marks now had even more fresh ones.
It seemed Mario really had been abused.
She grabbed his hand, about to say something, but he suddenly dropped to his haunches, gripping his head with both hands.
"It hurts... The needles, they hurt so much. I want to go home."
"Where is your home?"
"It's..." He trailed off, uncertain.
"Manston Manor... Manston Manor. The house Selena decorated. It's so beautiful."
Selena's grip on his wrist tightened suddenly, making him yelp in pain, his face turning pale.
"Manston Manor is where Raymond lives, not you."
Mario's reaction was intense; he suddenly stood up, his face twisted with rage.
"It's mine! It's all mine!"
Selena didn't want to argue with him. Maybe Mario really had lost his mind. But what about Christopher?
Her brow furrowed, not wanting to deal with Mario any longer. Since Raymond wasn't on the outer island, she had to wait for Valencia to make arrangements and then head to the central island as soon as possible. Otherwise, the mental hospital here might come looking for Mario.
She returned to her room, closed the door, and touched her stomach.
At four in the afternoon, Valencia finally contacted her, saying they would send a car to take her to the central island.
Selena brought Mario along, intending to take him with her, but Mario refused to get in the car.
"I want to stay here with Selena, I won't get in the car, I won't."
Emilio stood outside the car, thought for a moment, then pushed Mario in and got in himself.
Selena was a bit surprised.
"Emilio, you're coming with me?"
He nodded, raising his hand to touch the tattoo on the back of his neck.
"Even if I don't go with you now, after the college entrance exams, I'll still be sent to the inner island."
"What about the kids?"
"Selena, don't worry, I've already arranged for someone reliable to take care of them."
Selena didn't say anything more and instructed the driver to start the car.
The car drove up to a tall wall, guarded by about twenty armed men.
They checked everyone's documents one by one, finally focusing on Selena. One of them looked at her a few times.
Selena had a feeling they recognized her.
Just as she was about to close the window, a man with a gun pressed down on it.
"Are you Selena?"
Selena frowned warily, but the man pulled out a photo and compared it.
"Your husband is looking for you."
Selena instinctively thought he had the wrong person.
But his next words made her eyes light up.
"Your husband is Raymond, right? Since he arrived on the central island, he has acquired all the major companies and ordered everyone to look for you."
Selena's heart pounded, and her eyes instantly reddened.
She remembered spending two billion dollars to buy most of the Warner family shares, thinking it was already quite bold. She hadn't expected Raymond to be even more audacious on the central island.
A smile curved her lips, and she couldn't wait to get inside.
"I understand. I'll go find him."
The man finally withdrew his hand, smiling slightly. "Let them through."
The large iron gate slowly rose, and the car drove in.
After entering the gate, they had to recheck their documents every two hundred feet.
Selena realized then that if you weren't wealthy, you'd never get to the central island.
There were twenty checkpoints, each requiring a million dollars. To get through all of them, you needed twenty million dollars.
And that was per person. Selena had paid sixty million dollars for this trip.
No ordinary person from the outer island could afford it.
In Mystic Prison, money always found its way to those who needed it least.
After passing the final checkpoint, her heart began to race. Was she about to see Raymond?
