NovelEnglishChapter 1228 Cut Off Her Thoughts About Raymond The blanket had a faint medicinal scent, like herbs, with a calming effect.
Selena thought she would have nightmares, but even in her unconscious state, she felt a sense of peace.
The man sat by her bedside, and seeing that she had fallen asleep, he got up and drew the curtains to block out the sunlight.
Another person in the room reported to him.
"Raymond and Lawrence are about to clash. Lawrence has already ordered a full blockade of the Montague Group's projects." "Alright." The man's tone was light as he looked outside with a smile. "Throw Christopher into the mix, and things are really gonna get messy, huh?" His gaze shifted from the distant garden back to Selena.
Selena was very quiet once she fell asleep.

Romantic entanglements would only cloud her future decisions.
What he needed was not a decision-maker who could be thrown into disarray over a man.
The room fell silent. He fiddled with the still-burning incense, listening as the person beside him spoke. "This incense has a calming effect, but combined with the medication you gave her, it could cause mental confusion. Sir, it's best not to use these two things simultaneously." "I know what I'm doing. I won't harm her." The other man said no more and quietly left the room.
Raymond had a nightmare and woke up with a start, feeling like he couldn't breathe.
He looked around and realized he had fallen asleep on the couch.
He hadn't rested in days, his eyes bloodshot. He had dozed off on the couch but had a nightmare.
Remembering the dream, he picked up the water glass beside him, trying to quell the fear, but his hand trembled, causing the water to shake. The glass slipped from his hand, hitting the floor with a crisp sound. At that moment, the living room door opened, and John walked in.
Raymond quickly asked, "Any news?" John's face was grave as he slowly shook his head, but he couldn't help but remind him.
"Mr. Montague, Christopher has been handling the Montague Group's affairs for several days now, and he's doing a great job. The executives are hoping you'll return soon, or the group might face new changes." Even though Raymond held over fifty percent of the shares and was the absolute authority, if the executives' loyalty wavered, managing the company would becvery difficult.
Now, Christopher was frequently meeting with business partners, and rumors were spreading that he was about to take over the Montague Group.
There were also whispers that Raymond had lost his fighting spirit because of Selena's disappearance.
Seven speculated that this was Christopher's doing.
But Christopher's reputation was so impeccable that no one believed he would resort to such tactics.

"Mr. Montague, maybe you should go to the office tomorrow?" John asked cautiously. He was also worried about Selena's safety, but if the Montague Group fell into chaos, Raymond's future would be bleak.
Moreover, Abigail had returned and personally hosted Christopher'sm welcparty that night, publicly declaring that Christopher was her only outstanding heir. Raymond hadn't even shown up at the welcparty.
The hall was very quiet. Upon hearing there was no news of Selena, the light in Raymond's eyes instantly dimmed.
He forced a smile, his voice hoarse.
"What's the point of having the Montague Group without Selena?" His eyelashes lowered, and his eyes turned red.

(I highly recommend a captivating book that I couldn't put down for three days and nights. It's incredibly engaging and a must-read. The title ei of the book is "Husband plans to kill me" You can find it by searching for it in the search bar. )
