NovelEnglishChapter 81 A Product of Pure Self-Interest Megan's voice was loud and she showed no sign of restraint.
Raymond's steps paused, his eyes filled with ambiguous emotions and a hint of mockery. He remembered Selena mentioning that she had a great relationship with her husband.
So her marriage wasn't happy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut if a marriage is unhappy, one can choose to end it. The fact that she hadn't planned on divorcing hinted at something. Does she love that man deeply? Selena looked at the irrational Megan in front of her and felt annoyed. She took out her phone and dialed Brian's number.
But there was no answer on the other end, and she instantly becanxious.
It was thirty-six degrees outside, and Brian was walking alone on the road. Even if he collapsed from heatstroke, no one would know.
"Megan, cwithto pick up my uncle." Megan rolled her eyes. "I'm not going unless you givea hundred thousand." Selena even thought she was hallucinating. How thick-skinned must someone be to say something like that? Her eyes narrowed. "Say that again." Megan looked up and was about to repeat herself to Selena, but when she caught a glimpse of the coldness in Selena's eyes, she suddenly hesitated and stuttered, "W-what do you... what do you want?" Selena finally witnessed Megan's fear of intimidation.
"Just because my uncle and aunt tolerate you doesn't mean I'll tolerate you. You better not letcatch you doing anything wrong." A trace of guilt flashed in Megan's eyes, but then she straightened her chest.
"Don't threaten me! What can you have on me? Your entire family has causedenough suffering. I, an innocent girl, married your cousin and he abandoned me. He said he would take care of me, but he spat on his words. Your whole family has wronged me!" Selena no longer bothered to argue with her and drove off to find Brian, in one of the cars that had transported them.
As Selena slowly drove along the sroad she had cfrom, she dialed Brian's number again.
Brian had tried to make a phone call for help, but no one answered. Selena was anxious and after driving for half an hour, she saw Brian collapse on the roadside.

Selena helped him into the car and said, "I'll take you to the hospital." Brian sat in the passenger seat and felt the world spinning before his eyes.
"Selena, don't argue with your sister-in-law. It's our fault for what happened between her and your other! brother. Your brother made a mistake by taking hundreds of thousands of dollars from clients and running away. He even dared to gamble and lost over a million. Your Aunt and I have been borrowing at high interest rates to pay off the debt. Megan always becomes the gossip of the neighbors..." Selena gripped the steering wheel, feeling helpless. It was true that her brother took the clients' money and almost caused the Fair family to lose important projects.
James had initially helped her brother out of consideration for his wife, but he never expected his son to belso brazen. After that incident, all contact had been severed. Only when they both visit Selena's mother's grave would Brian occasionally ask a few questions about James.
However, James truly held a grudge against Brian's family, so when he found out that she was going to meet her uncle, his expression turned m unpleasant. " Megan said anything offensive, your uncle apologizes on her behalf." "I'm getting old now, and all I want is for everyone to live a peaceful life." Selena's expression remained unchanged as she listened, but she couldn't help but feel a pang of pain in her heart. It seemed that no matter who it was, they never chose her in the end. James chose the Beatrice family, and her uncle chose Megan. Ever since her mother passed away, she had becthe perpetual sacrifice.
Even this marriage, which was the subject of much debate, was only a result of a business transaction. Everything was for the Fair family.
