Raymond Montague picked up the warm water beside him and took a sip. "Greer is as brainless as his son, impatient. Otherwise, he wouldn''t have raised a useless person like Oliver Montague. As for my second uncle''s family, they are still watching from the sidelines, not sure what mischief they are up to."


    Paul nced at him and couldn''t help but advise, "In the past, no matter what the circumstances, you always came out unscathed. But this time, you are seriously injured because you care about someone. She will be your weakness, and before long, your opponents will know she is your weakness. Raymond, when we were in the army as kids, the instructors taught us not to expose our weaknesses. You seem to be... too concerned about that woman."


    So that day, Paul cast a deep nce at Selena, feeling an intuition that she wouldn''t be spared.


    Individuals from their backgrounds couldn''t afford to ce too much emphasis on love.


    While it was not beyond him to eliminate the other party, with Raymond now showing a keen interest in that woman, their rtionship would likely sour if he did so. Among this group of people, Paul was the most ruthless.


    In the past, Raymond and Paul were equally merciless, both akin to wolves-Raymond, the bold, charging wolf, while Paul, the silent and strategic wolf.


    Paul continued, "I have probed Penny; she is unwilling to divorce, and she seems to be nning to have a child."


    In fact, Paul had never probed, but he deliberately said so to make Raymond give up on that woman.


    In in terms, that kind of woman is not worthy of entering their circle.


    Sure enough, Raymond Montague''s brow furrowed. "You said she''s nning to have a child?"


    "Yes, in wealthy families, childbirth is encouraged, even more so in ordinary families. A woman''s status won''t be stable without children."


    Raymond''s chest heaved violently, and Paul saw his reaction, knowing his approach was correct.


    An inadequate weakness must be removed early. Otherwise, when it bes a bone in the body, it will be toote to remove.


    Raymond Montague''s breath instantly turned extremely cold.


    Raymond''s demeanor instantly turned icy.


    After Paul left, he sat alone in the hospital room for half an hour.


    Subsequently, he ced a call to Selena.


    "Raymond," she mumbled.


    "Come to me," said Raymond.


    Selena nced at the time; it was already eleven o''clock.


    "Raymond, how about Ie tomorrow?"


    "Now, don''t forget who got hurt because of whom."


    Selena was speechless, got up resignedly, and started dressing. Her hand could barely stretch to hold things, but she still couldn''t exert too much force. She drove to the hospital alone.


    When she reached Raymond Montague''s ward, she felt a chill seeping through the crack in the door. She shivered.


    Raymond Montague saw hering and waved. Selena Fair walked over, and he grabbed her chin instantly.


    He looked at her face carefully, and at that moment, he felt an urge to kill her.


    "Raymond, it hurts."


    "I hope it hurts enough to make you suffer."


    He got out of bed, turned her around, cing her back against him, supporting her with the bed rail.


    Upon seeing this posture, Selena immediately grasped his intentions.


    She struggled hastily. "Your body isn''t fully recovered yet; maybe next time."


    Raymond, however, had already undone her clothing, stating, "You owe me one more time. I''ll do it whenever I please."


    Initially resistant, Selena ceased her struggle upon hearing about the one remaining instance.


    Selena was initially struggling but stopped when she heard about the onest time.


    Raymond wrapped his arms around her waist, nestled in her neck for a moment, sensing her demeanor soften, which left him somewhat displeased.


    It was as if she wished for the tenth encounter to conclude swiftly, allowing the two to sever ties.


    Suppressing his surging impulse, he swiftly regainedposure, straightening out her attire.


    Selena, perplexed, then heard him inquire, "After the tenth time, will you still make love with me?"


    Selena remained silent, leading Raymond to understand.


    Returning to the bed, he leaned back with his hands, gazing lightly at her. "You don''t want to be with me anymore?"


    "I am married."


    "Can your husband pleasure you like I can?"


    Beneath the revealed hospital gown, his chest was still wrapped in white bandages.


    As he spoke these words with nonchnce, his demeanor bore aggression in his gaze.
