Selena found it amusing; it was all initiated by Raymond, what did it have to do with her?


    She shook off Tessa''s hand.


    "Ms. Smith, you wanted to be Raymond''s girlfriend so badly, but got rejected, so you broke down. You didn''t dare to get mad at Raymond, so you took it out on me, right?" Tessa was trembling all over, pointing her shaking finger at Selena''s face.


    "I''ll kill you!"


    She swung her bag heavily at Selena, who instinctively blocked it to avoid getting hit.


    The bag was deflected back and hit Tessa on the head.


    Tessa saw stars and then fell backward, fainting.


    This time she was really furious, feeling a sharp pain in her heart.


    She had shown her miserable state but still couldn''t separate Raymond and Selena. It seemed she had to rely on her heart condition this time!


    She was determined to have her parentse to Silver Bay City to finalize her marriage with Raymond.


    Selena saw her fall and wasn''t sure if she was faking it or not, but she still called an ambnce for her.


    Tessa''s hospitalization was soon known to Lawrence and Richard.


    Lawrence rushed to the hospital, while Richard called Selena.


    "This time you''re really in trouble. Tessa had a heart attack. Our family has protected her well over the years, and her heart condition rarely red up. This time my parents will definitelye over. Be careful, you can''t handle my dad''s methods. You''d better ask Raymond for help."


    Richard was genuinely worried, and he had a feeling that Lawrence was plotting something behind his back, and even Jason was hiding things from him.


    In the entire Smith family, he was probably the only one who was truly innocent.


    He did like Selena''s personality, but his position didn''t allow him to do anything for her.


    Selena had already returned to Ashbourne Manor and knew she was in trouble.


    She raised her hand to rub her temples and sighed softly.


    "Mr. Smith, thank you for the warning."


    "Selena, my mom has a rather extreme personality."


    He implied that she should protect herself.


    Selena was indeed a bit troubled, but since the Smith family hadn''t arrived yet, she needed to take care of her own matters first.


    The next morning at nine, Raymond''s car was outside Ashbourne Manor. She had nned to meet him at the cemetery, but since he was here, she got in the car. They didn''t bring anyone, but her bodyguards followed in another car.


    Raymond noticed after driving just a mile.


    "Your people?"


    "Yes, things haven''t been peacefultely."


    She sat in the passenger seat, looking outside.


    Raymond''s heart tightened. He didn''t know when it started, but meeting like this, they had nothing to talk about.


    Their time together was very short. They were married for three years, but only had a few months of entanglement when he returned to the country. It seemed they never really talked.


    He gripped the steering wheel tightly, and the car soon stopped at the cemetery.


    Selena got out, looking at the dense tombstones, suddenly remembering a time she returned home, with four tombstones behind her. It was so quiet around, it felt like she was the only one in the world. She followed behind Raymond. Because of a recent heavy rain, the soil was wet. Although the path was paved with steps, it was still difficult to walk.


    After a few steps, a hand was extended in front of her.


    She looked up and met his gaze. "I can manage."


    Raymond said nothing, retracting his hand and quietly cing it by his side.


    After walking for about ten minutes, they arrived at William''s tombstone.


    She didn''t know what to say for a moment, thinking about all the things William did for her when he was alive. She finally bowed her head in silence. Raymond, standing beside her, said gently, "It''s okay, Grandpa won''t me you."


    After he said that, he stood quietly by the side, not telling her that William had hoped they wouldn''t be together before he died.
