Reclaiming Her Heart

Raymond had initially wanted to wrap his arms around her waist, but seeing her suddenly step back, almost crashing into a nearby potted plant, he stopped.

"Selena!"

He called out, taking large strides toward her, worried.

Selena curled up slightly, her mind in a whirl.

She fumbled as she got up from the floor.

"Raymond, I need to rest. I have a headache."

Her fingertips touched the wall, and without waiting for Raymond's response, she left.

Raymond hurried to follow, but as Selena reached the hallway, she heard a woman's voice, "Has Mr. Montague returned today? I've been here several times recently, and he never comes out to see me. My things are still at Manston Manor."

Footsteps approached from outside, getting closer.

Layla looked up and saw Selena. Recognizing the similar features, she instantly knew this was the woman Raymond was infatuated with.

Selena just looked in the direction of the approaching footsteps, not saying much, and tried to leave.

Layla raised an eyebrow. So this woman was blind?

She immediately felt her chances had increased. No normal man would choose a blind

woman.

Her lips curled into a smile as she pretended to just notice Selena.

"Miss, are your eyes not well? Where do you want to go? I'll help you. I'm familiar with this place."

Before Selena could react, her arm was grabbed. She frowned. "No need, thank you. Let go."

She genuinely didn't need help and wasn't used to a stranger assisting her.

Now that she couldn't see, her sense of smell and hearing had become exceptionally sharp. She recognized the scent on this woman, a scent she had smelled on Raymond before.

She recalled what Mario had said about a favored woman being around Raymond during her absence.

Raymond felt a sudden tension seeing Layla appear.noveldrama

He had forgotten about her. Layla had mentioned going to Ridgefield to visit family for a week, and he had agreed.

Then he got involved with Mario's villa and completely forgot about Layla. Now she was here, running into Selena.

Raymond felt a pang of guilt and quickly walked over to support Selena.

"Selena, let me take you back to your room to rest. This is the new maid at Manston Manor. If you don't like her, I'll have her dismissed immediately," he quickly said.

Layla couldn't believe her ears. Though she resembled this woman, she was younger and had good eyesight. Was Raymond blind to choose a blind woman?

She found it unbelievable, thinking Raymond was just pretending to be deeply in love. After Raymond escorted Selena to the master bedroom, Layla waited outside.

As soon as he came out, she clung to his arm. "Mr. Montague, you're so heartless to me now. You used to hold me often. Have you decided to abandon me just because I was gone for a few days?"

Raymond deeply regretted his past foolishness. If Selena could see, she would be furious to see Layla dressed in her high school graduation outfit.

Anyone would feel offended seeing someone mimicking them.

Today, Layla had deliberately tied her hair in a ponytail and wore a high school uniform. She had figured out that Selena graduated from the same high school, so they must have worn the same clothes.

"Mr. Montague, don't you like me dressed like this?"

Raymond frowned, "I'll have John escort you out. Your debts are paid off. Don't come looking for me again."

Layla stood there in shock for a long time before stepping back. "Mr. Montague, are you joking?"

She couldn't accept being abandoned for a blind woman.

Damn it, why didn't that blind woman just die!

Layla had been pampered recently and had lost her humility, thinking she could easily manipulate Raymond.

So when he said those words, her first reaction was to storm into the room and push Selena out the window, killing that wretched woman.
