Chapter 304 Ignite the Fire in People's Hearts
Olivia turned to Raymond and said, "Raymond, I'm heading over first."
Raymond nodded and walked towards Paul.
Paul was the heir to the Adams family, a top-tier family in the weapon manufacturing business, directly under high-level control.
Paul possessed a gloomy and irritable personality, with few friends he could talk to. Luckily, Raymond and Alex were among them.
Raymond sat down next to him, and Paul sneered. "I really don't get what you see in her."
Alex quickly nudged Paul with his elbow. "What's with the attitude? Not everyone is like you, uninterested in any woman. Raymond and Olivia have known each other since they were kids; they're a perfect match."
Paul smirked and silently swirled the wine in his glass.
Raymond didn't argue with Paul. After sitting down, he scanned the room. Penny hadn't come in; where had Mia taken her?
Mia was showing Selena around, starting with the seafood and then moving on to the entertainment facilities.
Swimming pool, bungee jumping, shooting range—everything was available, and all these places were packed.
This party was for young people to have fun, so they could do whatever they liked without any restrictions.
Chefs were starting to enter the seafood glasshouse one after another; people were scattered all over the place.
Mia finally took Selena to the dessert area, a 30-foot-long space filled with desserts.
Mia said, "Emily hosts this gathering every year, but the timing varies; it could be any season. These chefs have all been hired by the Montague family before. Chefs from high-end restaurants abroad are more expensive than sports stars, and there are only a dozen or so famous ones. The food is really good."
If someone else had said this, it would probably have been showing off. But Mia was just stating the facts.
Selena didn't want to disappoint her, so she took a small pastry and had a bite.
It had been an hour since Selena toured the seafood house, and she was a bit tired from walking around with Mia.
Mia received a call. "Penny, my friend is calling me. You stay in the dessert area; I'll come find you later."
Selena nodded; she needed a place to rest.
Once Mia left, she went to a small garden next to the dessert area and sat on a swing.
The swing was heavily decorated, perfectly concealing her, and Selena overheard some things she shouldn't have.
"Is this drug really effective?"
"Miss Roberts, don't worry. This is the most expensive drug abroad right now. Once Raymond takes it, he'll lose his mind immediately and go after any woman."
"Good, tonight is the opportunity."
Selena froze. She recognized that voice.
It was Delilah Roberts. They had clashed a few times before; she was also at today's party?
It seemed Olivia's return to the country had indeed driven some people to madness, to the extent that they considered drugging Raymond with such a potion.
Selena sat still.
After the footsteps faded away, she got up, wondering if she should remind Raymond. After all, she couldn't just watch him fall into the trap.
Moreover, most of the young people in Silver Bay City were here. If Raymond was caught with Delilah, he and Olivia probably wouldn't be able to stay together.
Selena quickly walked a few steps but she collided with another group at the corner.
Sofia, who was hit, felt a bit dizzy and got angry when she saw it was Selena.
Sofia shouted, "Are you blind?"
Selena was stunned to see Sofia and Olivia in bikinis. It seemed that they intended to head towards the swimming pool near the dessert area.
Behind them were several young men in swim trunks, including Alex and Caterlington.
Caterlington's eyes lit up, and he smiled. "Penny, did you bring a swimsuit?"
Selena forced a smile. "No."
She was about to leave but was grabbed by Caterlington.
Caterlington said, "You're already here; come with us. Even if you don't have a swimsuit, you can still have fun in the pool."
Caterlington, always carefree, lifted her onto his shoulder before Selena could react.
Selena's face turned red with anger. "Let me go!"
In the next moment, Caterlington arrived by the swimming pool and, holding her, dove right in.
Selena choked on some water, surfaced, wiped her face, and glared at Caterlington with anger.
Sparkling water droplets fell from her eyelashes; Selena's wet body revealed her curves.
The anger in her eyes made her look vibrant, as if she could spark desire in anyone's heart.
