Reclaiming Her Heart

Alex's hatred for her had grown so intense that just seeing her face made him feel sick.

Paul, on the other hand, was a bit more composed. He walked over and delivered a swift chop to the back of Raymond's neck.

Raymond's hand clung tightly to Selena's, refusing to let go.

Paul forcibly pried his hand away. He gave Selena a long, hard look before supporting Raymond and leaving.

Before Alex shut the door, he spat out a curse.

"You two scumbags are gonna get what's coming to you!"

He was at his breaking point.

Selena remained huddled in Christopher's alter ego's arms. It wasn't until the

conference room fell silent that she began to tremble all over.

Christopher's alter ego didn't say a word. For a moment, he even felt like applauding. What a grand display of love. What did they take him for?

A witness to their undying love?

He let out a cold laugh.

"Selena, you are blind and didn't you see his face, right? It was awful. Raymond, the guy who's always been heaven's favorite, groveling like that. You're a real curse, turning Christopher into a shell of a man, making Raymond willing to give up everything for you. Who knows how much he'll drink tonight to numb himself. Too bad you can't see it. Maybe your blindness is your karma."

Selena didn't respond. She thought she would break down and cry, maybe even scream hysterically.

But in the face of overwhelming despair, she felt nothing but calm.

It was as if a gaping hole had opened in her chest, silently bleeding.

Her head throbbed, the pain so intense she felt like she might pass out.

She had no idea it was a side effect of the drugs.

They made her emotions unstable, filled her with deep self-doubt.

Her craving for power grew stronger.

Only those with such desires could be controlled.

Christopher's alter ego had intended to provoke her further. After all, the transfer

agreement hadn't been signed, and he was pretty pissed about it.

But Selena seemed dead inside. Even if he left her alone, she wouldn't react.

Mocking her didn't get a rise out of her either.

She was like a soulless doll.

Targeting her felt like punching a pillow-utterly frustrating.

He got up and paced around the conference room, trying to cool off.

But it was no use. The memory of being forced to sit there, unable to do anything,

watching them declare their feelings for each other, even feeling her tears soak into his suit, made his blood boil.

"Damn it!"

"Damn it!"

"Selena, I could kill you! If it weren't for you, I'd be the CEO of the Montague Group right now!"

"Your love is so grand, truly grand!"

He kept repeating that last line, kicking over a chair in the conference room.

Everyone on the top floor was too scared to speak. Even through the thick glass, they could tell how furious he was.

The chair smashed against the wall, shattering into pieces.

They had seen Paul and Alex come in to help Raymond out, and noticed that the

woman Christopher was holding was Selena. The drama of two men fighting over one woman played out in their minds.

It seemed Raymond had lost this round.

Selena had ultimately chosen Christopher, as she was still by his side.

The people on the top floor were forced to witness this spectacle, then saw

Christopher's alter ego yelling at Selena.

There were also two lawyers in the room. With the deal unsigned, they had no reason

to stay.

But Christopher's alter ego hadn't let them leave, and they didn't dare make a move on their own.

Finally, Christopher's alter ego shot them a piercing glare.

"Get out! All of you, get out!"

He couldn't even describe his emotions, only that he wanted to blow up the entire building.

He stayed in the conference room for a long time, feeling like his chest might explode. But since Selena continued to act like a soulless robot, he had to pull himself together. After all, there were still many people watching outside.noveldrama

He took a deep breath, scooped Selena up, and left the Montague Group, planning to take her to his place.
