NovelsBestChapter 694 If You Hurt Her, You're HurtingPaul's fingers hesitated. It seemed Raymond still cared about Penny.
"She's planning to mess up Emily's face tonight. If I don't step in, my mom will," Paul said.
"Stay out of it," Raymond replied indifferently. "If you hurt her, you're hurting me." Paul's expression shifted immediately. 'Why does it seem like Raymond cares more about Penny after losing his memory?' "Raymond, are you serious?" Paul asked.
Raymond swallowed a painkiller, his eyes cold. "Paul, I'm serious. For now, you can't hurt her." Paul hung up and called Sandra, saying he wouldn't handle it.
Sandra was furious, and Emily's crying could be heard in the background.
Emily was hiding under the blanket, trembling. She'd scream if anyone touched her.

Emily trembled even more. "Don't kill me! Don't ruin my face!" Seeing her like this, Sandra felt heartbroken.
She thought Paul didn't want to handle it because of Raymond.
She immediately called Gilbert and told him what happened that night.
On Gilbert's end, he was also troubled seeing Jessica crying as soon as she got home.
"I'll have a private talk with that designer," Gilbert said.
Gilbert was very assertive in business. Seeing Jessica so upset, with a swollen forehead, made him very angry. He called Selena, saying he wanted to talk privately.
So at nine o'clock, they met at a café.
Selena hadn't gone hyet and went straight to the café.
Then she saw Gilbert.
Gilbert was in a suit and was a bit surprised by how beautiful she was. But it was only for a moment; his face quickly turned grim. "Ms. Cooper, did you hit my daughter?" "Mr. Young, I was surrounded by several people at the time. I had no choice," Selena responded. Gilbert said, "I've never even hit Jessica once in her life." Selena said, "If I didn't fight back, I would've been beaten by a group of people. Mr. Young, I thought you wanted to talk business." Gilbert looked her up and down, noticing she was neither humble nor arrogant, seemingly not bothered by the incident at all. He found it amusing.
"Ms. Cooper, I'm a reasonable person. If you apologize to my daughter and she feels satisfied, I'll agree to what you asked for," said Gilbert.
He meant that if Jessica wasn't satisfied, he wouldn't agree to Selena's request.
Selena stood up. "First off, I want to rent a property from Sunshine Real Estate. That doesn't mean I'm beneath them. You didn't offera discount. If you won't rent to me, I'll find someone else. So if you're trying to threaten me, it's not gonna work. I have other things to do. Looks like we can't agree." Gilbert glanced outside and saw Ann in the driver's seat. He raised an eyebrow. "Ann?" Then he chuckled. "I know Ann. Isn't her boyfriend Brody Gray?" Selena didn't know Ann's boyfriend's name.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"My daughter is pursuing Brody," Gilbert added.
Selena's eyes narrowed, anger rising. "Mr. Young, you know Brody has a girlfriend, yet you let your daughter chase him?"
Gilbert shrugged. "So what? They're not married. Even if my daughter gets Brody, it doesn't mean they'll marry. e They'll date for a few months, then she'll move on. She's always been like this. I don't stop her as long as she's happy."
He sipped his coffee and chuckled. "Jessica is aggressively pursuing him. With her looks and family background, it's only a matter of tLoftbefore Brody agrees. Meni can be practical. Think carefully about whether you want to apologize.
Brody's company is a subsidiary of Sunshine Real Estate. He just got promoted to manager and got engaged. If Jessica wins him over now, it would be a big blow to your driver, wouldn't it?" This was a blatant threat. If Selena didn't apologize, he'd use coercion to make Brody leave Ann.
She was momentarily speechless.
Gilbert had taken control, standing up elegantly. "Penny, in this world, you'll learn many lessons. Speople are born different from others."
"Jessica has a prominent family and loving parents. She doesn't have to work hard like you. Hek monthly allowance might be more than you could earn in a lifetime. Her face is not something you can hit." After saying this, Gilbert left. It was already a big deal for him to cout and talk to Selena.
Selena stood there for a long tbefore turning to leave.
Ann saw her face didn't look right and quickly asked, "Ms. Fair, what's wrong?"
