NovelEnglishChapter 1051 Once You Break Up with Selena She still had no clue what Raymond was planning when he pushed her onto the couch.
Worried someone might walk in, she quickly said, "Let's go home, this isn't the place for this." Raymond, panting, held her waist tightly. "Just a little bit, okay?" Selena was still super nervous, but she couldn't talk Raymond out of it.
Raymond's idea of "a little bit" turned into a lot, lasting until the party was over.
When Raymond finally took her downstairs, her legs were shaking.
There were only a few guests left in the hall, saying their goodbyes to the Adams family.
Raymond held her as they approached Paul to say goodbye.

Paul stood there, looking impatient, like he was about to explode.
Paul said, "She probably left a while ago." Selena stopped worrying about Ann.
Raymond met Paul's gaze, but Paul just looked away and continued seeing off the guests.
When Selena was carried to the car, she couldn't help but glance outside.
Most of the guests had left. After the scene she caused tonight, the gossip was probably spreading like wildfire. She felt unhappy and leaned back.
Raymond asked, "You upset?" Selena replied, "A little." Raymond held her hands and asked, "Are they really your parents?" Selena said, "Dr. Barnes did the paternity test himself; it's probably right." She closed her eyes and was immediately pulled into his arms.
Raymond gently patted her back, "It's okay." That made her feel a bit better.
No one could replace Barbara in her heart. Whenever Selena was sad, Barbara had always been there for her, even in a family that favored the boys.
So when she found out she wasn't part of the Fair family, she was shocked and felt guilty for confiding at Barbara's grave.
After all, she didn't know where Barbara's real daughter was suffering at that time.
The last tSelena was at the cemetery in Ridgefield, standing in front of Barbara and her uncle's family tombstones, she felt a strong sense of loneliness.
She thought she wasn't strong enough to ignore her origins.
Especially when she saw the greed in Delia's eyes and the scheming in Kyle's, the helplessness grew stronger. Now, sitting in the car, held by Raymond, she was still feeling annoyed.

When they got to Manston Manor, he helped her take a bath, then stood outside on the first floor smoking.
Paul called him, "I've looked into Kyle and Delia. They might be working for someone else, but their background in Ridgefield checks out, I had Victor recheck the paternity test, and it's accurate. Kyle and Delia did sell their daughter back then and have been looking for her all these years. This time, someone might have been stirring things up, but it backfired and revealed Selena's true identity. Now the gossip is everywhere." If it weren't for Raymond tonight, Selena would have been humiliated at the party.
Once tied to family, no matter how strong Selena was personally, it wouldn't matter. This circle was just that snobbish.
People who gained status through hard work couldn't compare to those who had been in business and politics for generations.
Raymond took a deep drag on his cigarette, thinking of Selena being isolated and helpless in front of everyone, and felt a pain in his chest. Raymond said coldly, "Don't let them show up again."
Paul said, "That might be tough. You've just made big changes at the Montague Group, and a lot of people are watching you. Now Selena is just your girlfriend and many are hoping E for you to break up. You know your charm; many women in the circle want to marry you. If you break up with Selena, she'll beca target. If you get rid of them now, they'll be brought back immediately by someone else."
