Reclaiming Her Heart

Delia thought she must've heard wrong and jumped up, ready to go after Selena.

"Do you even have a heart?" Delia yelled. "We're your real parents! Is this how you treat us?"

Selena almost got grabbed, but luckily, a nearby bodyguard stepped in just in time.

Selena took a few steps back, turned around, and walked away without looking back, leaving Delia fuming.

"You'll regret this!" Delia shouted after her.

Not long after, Delia and Kyle were kicked out, looking pretty humiliated, especially in such a fancy place. They looked like a total joke.

Kyle quickly pulled out his phone and called a guy. "She won't acknowledge us and even had the bodyguards throw us out."

The guy on the other end said, "Take some pics of yourselves looking all messed up, preferably in front of the company."

Kyle didn't waste any time; they only found their daughter thanks to this guy.

Plus, it was this guy who told him that their daughter was now a super-rich CEO.

If they hadn't known this beforehand, they wouldn't have made the trip to Silver Bay City.

After all, they always saw their daughter as a financial drain. If they hadn't hoped for $100,000 back then, they wouldn't have even bothered filing a report at the police station.

Delia and Kyle quickly snapped some photos of themselves looking all disheveled in front of the company and sent them to the guy.

The guy was Wind. After getting the photos, he sent them to his contacts in the Silver Bay City circle.

Next to Wind, Tessa was lounging around, still munching on grapes, her eyes half-closed.

After Wind finished, he reported, "Ms. Smith, it's all set. Soon, everyone in the circle will know that Selena's parents came to Silver Bay City to find her and got thrown out of the company by her." The people in this circle all came from top-tier families, so there was a strict pecking order.

Those women who climbed the social ladder by marrying rich guys, without their own family's backing, had a low status in the circle.

So the high-society ladies always looked down on Selena.

Even if Raymond was into Selena now, so what? A man's love never lasted. Sure, Raymond was head over heels for Selena now, but in a few days, he might marry Tessa.

Most people in the circle didn't marry for love; they married for status.

Even if they had someone they really liked, when it came to marriage, their families would step in and shut it down.

Women without a solid background could be toyed with, but they were never brought into the family.

But no one dared to mess with someone like Tessa, who had a powerful background.

As long as Tessa wanted Raymond, she was going to marry him.

A lot of people in the circle still thought Raymond was with Tessa. To them, Selena was just a shameless homewrecker.

Even if Selena had been married to Raymond before, if he really liked her, why would he have divorced her?

Tessa popped another grape into her mouth, her voice soft, "Wind, my heart's been hurting a lot lately. Rachel and Aria are useless. If I step in myself, wouldn't that put me on the same level as Selena? If my friends in Vistalia found out, they'd laugh at me."

The Smith family was top-tier in Vistalia, and Tessa was super popular in her circle. From national princesses to rich ladies, they were all her friends.

The Smith Group was big in the film industry, with each movie investment being huge. The taxes they paid each year were enough to support half the population, and everyone loved money.

That's why Tessa had been hesitant to take real action.

So she just had Wind set up this scene. Delia and Kyle did lose their daughter back then, but they actually sold her, and no one knew where she ended up. As for the matching DNA test, there was another secret behind it. Tessa's lips curled into a smile, her fingertips stained with grape juice.

Wind stood quietly by her side, serving her, which made him very happy.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Tessa said, "Wind, if I can't deal with Selena in the end, just kill her for me. That should be easy for you, right?"

A flash of excitement crossed Wind's eyes. It had been a long time since he last killed for her.

He slowly bent down, his eyes full of loyalty. "Ms. Smith, as long as you need it."

Tessa chuckled, wrapping her hands around his neck, "You're always so obedient. It's great that Mom sent you to me."

Wind didn't respond to this, only feeling that her hands were soft but could take his life in a heartbeat.

In fact, he had worked hard for a long time to get close to her. As a security personnel, he had been trained by the Smith family from a young age, all to protect Tessa.
