Chapter 923 Words Can Heal or Hurt William realized he'd said too much and quickly waved it off. "Forget it. You always mess things up! You figure it out! You slept with Selena, then thought it was Brenda, making Brenda hate everyone for so long. Just look at the mess you made!" "Grandpa!" Raymond's voice shot up, his chest heaving with anger. "Are you saying Max's old owner was the guy Selena liked?" William stood up, leaning on his cane, clearly done with the conversation. "Just a guess." "A guess?" Raymond found it laughable, his breathing getting shaky. He could hear a sob in his voice. If that were true, it'd be so ironic.

He'd talked about Max with Selena, trying to find something to connect over. And now, Max was left by the guy she liked? Did that mean as long as Max was around, she'd never forget that guy? How ridiculous, caring so much for a dog left by his rival.
Raymond felt a deep pain, his heart twisting. William's words hit him like a lightning bolt, leaving him unable to think straight. He suddenly remembered that day at the hospital when she'd called out a strange nin her sleep. Jealous, he'd asked whose nit was, if it was her first love. She'd said it was Max's previous owner's name. She hadn't admitted it was her first love, but she'd hinted at it. How clever.
The truth hit him, and his eyes turned cold and deep. William had already left, and Ashbourne Manor was eerily quiet. Everyone could see Raymond was in a bad mood, and no one dared to approach him.
Raymond suddenly let out a cold laugh and said to John, "Taketo the hospital where Max is." John nodded, quickly bowing his head and running over to push the wheelchair. Raymond sat in the wheelchair, his fingers tightly gripping the armrests. The feeling was unbearable, like someone had scattered nails in his heart, piercing him all over.

The pet hospital had only two floors, and Selena sat quietly on a chair, unaware of his arrival. The moment Raymond saw her, a storm began brewing in his eyes. He signaled John to stop, then slowly maneuvered the wheelchair to her. Selena heard the sound and looked up to meet his gaze. Raymond's eyes grew increasingly inscrutable, his lips pale as he hoarsely asked, "Is Max left by the guy you liked?" Selena didn't know how to respond, and just then, the vet cout. She quickly stood up to inquire. Raymond grabbed her wrist. "I'm asking you, is it?" Selena instinctively shook off his hand. Raymond felt as if his heart had been cruelly discarded, trampled on, and then thrown into the freezing cold. Then he coldly uttered, "Selena, if that's true, then I wish Max were dead."
Selena stiffened, the words hitting her like a dagger, causing her to lose her composure in my heart, Max's life is far more important than your baby."
