Reclaiming Her Heart

After that incident, the woman started popping up everywhere Alex went, like a shadow. She'd show up for auditions at every production he was involved in, like she had him all figured out.

At first, Alex found it annoying, but now he was a bit confused about his feelings.

Everyone in the industry knew about the woman chasing him because she never hid the way she looked at him. Her gaze was so intense, Alex had never seen anything like it in his life.

Eventually, almost without thinking, he gave her his phone number. Sure enough, she texted him all day long. He rarely responded, but whenever he did, no matter how late, she would reply instantly.

One time, he texted her as a prank at four in the morning, and she replied right away.

[Alex, I have special notifications set for you. No matter when you reach out, I'll be there.]

That message made Alex feel a twinge of guilt for his prank, but it was fleeting. He quickly returned to feeling disdainful.

As a screenwriter, he knew all the tricks. She was just trying to make him fall for her slowly.

His attitude towards her grew increasingly harsh. Since everyone knew she was pursuing him, he often brought it up in public. She never said anything, as if her love for him had stripped her of all dignity.

"Well, what else is there between a man and a woman? We hooked up a few times. She's pretty innocent, doesn't make a sound in bed. A toy I trained myself, quite interesting. You should meet her sometime. She looks pure, has a quiet personality, but in bed, she knows how to please me."

Alex's eyes crinkled as he spoke.

He was already quite handsome, and the mole on his nose only accentuated his features.

Paul poured himself a drink, his tone carrying a hint of warning.

"Hooking up is fine, but don't get yourself caught up. Remember how Raymond was with Selena? He wouldn't admit he liked her, and look how that turned out. Love and affection are cheap, especially for people like us. Women are just like money, always moving."

Alex shot him a sideways glance.

"Are you warning me? I've been with plenty of women; I don't need your advice. But you, those marks on you before, which woman did that?"

Paul didn't want to talk about that woman. He stayed silent, leaning back with a mysterious air, quietly sipping his drink.

The room fell silent, everyone waiting for Raymond to wake up.

Christopher's alter ego took Selena back to his place. This time, he casually handed her over to the servants and told the guards at the door, "Keep a close eye on her. If you can't even handle a blind woman, you might as well be dead."

It was clear he was furious. Anyone who angered him now would be asking for trouble. Christopher's alter ego yanked at his tie, kicked the table in frustration, unable to calm down. He wanted to kill Selena.

He went to the bathroom, looking at his angry reflection in the mirror. For a moment, he thought he looked a lot like Raymond.

Christopher used to be gentle, so it wasn't noticeable. But now that his alter ego had taken over, the resemblance was striking.

Christopher's alter ego had a bad temper, just as unpredictable.

Staring at his reflection, he suddenly punched the mirror.

"Damn it!"

His fist was covered in blood, his face dark with anger.

In his mind, Christopher's voice had long disappeared. Who knew when it would return?

He was breathing heavily, unsure if he was angry about not becoming the CEO of the Montague Group or being a witness to Selena and Raymond's grand love story.

If it was the latter, it meant he had not only accepted Christopher's memories but also his emotions.

And that was not a good sign.
