Chapter 382 The Sharp Needle suddenly Pierced into the Heart
Bert caught Lucas, and the people from Apex Holdings Group were still in the hospital, even if they didn't dare to let the doctors tamper with anything.
Selena thought, 'But as long as dad is awake, they keep saying things that make him sad. I'm afraid he won't last two months.'
Raymond originally wanted to make things a bit more difficult for her, like only solving Bert's issue after she completed ten times.
But when he saw the brokenness emanating from her, as if she was enduring and growing thorns, the frustration in his heart surged up again.
He took out his phone and called John. "Hand over the evidence of Bert's crimes to the police station. By nine o'clock tomorrow, I want to see news of Apex Holdings Group being shut down."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Selena was a bit surprised. She thought he would just hand over the evidence and that she would still need to negotiate with the police. She didn't expect him to handle everything directly.
Raymond's gaze shifted to her, and he couldn't help but ask, "Feeling better?"
Selena was a bit stunned. After realizing what he meant, her cheeks turned red, and she awkwardly looked away.
"Yeah."
Raymond remembered that time at the villa when he couldn't bear to torment her and stopped when she said she couldn't take it anymore.
He didn't expect her to forget everything when she woke up.
He stood up. Since he knew she was in such a hurry for Lucas, there was no need to be too gentle.
"Eight o'clock tonight, wait for me at the hotel."
Selena's whole body stiffened, and her fingers curled slightly.
Actually, her private parts were injured. She had just applied some medicine before coming over, and it was the same medicine she bought from the hospital after their first time.
She didn't expect to use it again.
Hearing that he wanted to have sex tonight, she instinctively tensed up, her palms sweating.
But in this matter, she had no room for negotiation.
She swallowed hard. "Okay."
"Anything else?" His cold aura spread as he withdrew his gaze.
Selena lowered her eyelashes, trying to stay calm. "No. You go ahead."
As she was about to leave the room, his voice came again. "You have the hotel room key, right?"
She was the last one to leave the room, so the key was with her.
"Yeah." She responded, and not hearing any other instructions, she turned her heels towards the door when he casually added. "Put on a nice dress. You're married; you should know what men like."
Selena felt as if a sharp needle had pierced her heart, causing a bit of pain.
Her face turned pale instantly, but she didn't look back.
Her lips moved slightly before she hoarsely said, "Okay."
Raymond said this just to humiliated her and remind her that she was already married, yet she was having sex with him.
.
Selena understood this, so after agreeing to his last sentence, she quickly left with her head down.
When John entered, he happened to see her getting into the elevator and called out, "Selena."
Selena quickly pulled herself together and smiled at him. "John."
John nodded as well. After entering Raymond's office, he couldn't help but say, "I just ran into Selena. She didn't look too well."
As he got closer, he noticed Raymond was in a daze, even holding the documents upside down.
Hearing this, Raymond lowered his head and responded with a faint "Yeah." He continued reading the documents, and John noticed they were upside down but decided not to say anything.
Once in the car, Selena still felt a bit uneasy. She mocked herself, thinking the deal was done, and dignity was pointless now.
Remembering Raymond's instructions, she realized she didn't have the right clothes and needed to buy them.
Parking in front of a store with its colorful lights, Selena felt nervous, gripping the steering wheel, worried someone she knew might see her.
She quickly got out of the car, keeping her head down as she slipped in. The middle-aged store clerk brightened up when she saw her.
"Shawty, what type are you looking for?"
Selena had no knowledge in this area and stammered, "Anything will do."
The middle-aged woman glared at her. "How can you be casual with this? It depends on your man's interests. Look at this one, it's youthful. This one is sexy, and this one is easy to tear."
Selena, with little experience in this area, blushed deeply.
"Just the youthful type."
