Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 456 What Tricks is That Woman Playing Now?

Selena sued Madam Montague, showing that she was truly someone not to be played with!

And she presented evidence, which was the painting her master had given her.

Madam Montague had never been so humiliated in her life, but if she didn't go, it would be contempt of court. She was so angry that she was trembling all over as she gazed at the lawyer who delivered the subpoena.

"What else did she say?"

The lawyer was hired by Madam Montague herself, she never expected Selena to pull such a move.

The lawyer also didn't expect that someone would sue their own grandmother-in-law!

And it happened in a family like the Montagues!

In such a prestigious family, any woman who married into it would always treat the man's family with utmost respect. Yet, here was Selena, being so defiant.

News had already spread in the New York circle, and people were coming to the Montague family to inquire about the situation.

The first person to be asked was Carter. Carter was somewhat incredulous, and the wine in his mouth sprayed onto the ground. "Say that again? Huh?! My sister-in-law sued my grandmother?"

The few people who came to chat nodded.

"Mr. Ashford, is this really true?"

Carter was a bit puzzled, but after a quick inquiry with his family, he found out that it was indeed the case.

They said that Selena was relentless, insisting on getting justice through the law!

Carter found it very interesting. He got up immediately, planning to go to Wolfland to find out what was going on!

At the same time, he called Raymond.

"Raymond, have you heard? Your wife sued our grandmother!"

Raymond was still in Ridgefield at the moment. The Montague family members who came down were still exploring the potential for development of the beach, and several managers hoped that he would stay for a few more days to negotiate the price directly with him.

It was hard to refuse such hospitality.

So when he received the call, he frowned, thinking he was hearing things.

"What did you say?"

"Your wife sued our grandmother! It's said to be a big deal, everyone knows about it. They were asking me about it today!"

Raymond instinctively wondered what tricks that woman was playing now!

"I'll be back in the evening!"

"Raymond, you better hurry up."

Carter hung up the phone and immediately went to Wolfland.

Not for anything else, but to watch the drama unfold.

Sueing the old lady, huh?

His sister-in-law was really courageous; wasn't she afraid of being kicked out of the Montague family's door!

He arrived at Wolfland, only to find Madam Montague furiously arguing with her lawyer.

"What do you mean I can't unilaterally withdraw the lawsuit?! Are you saying what she said is correct, that a counterfeit painting could fool anyone?! She wants to sue me, right? Fine, I'm going to sue her for usurping the Montague family's property!"

The lawyer was somewhat helpless, "Madam, even if you want to sue her, that has to wait. The current problem is that she has sued you, and you must go to court to respond."

Madam Montague's cheeks turned red, and she almost passed out.

Catherine was also there. This was like a dream; she still couldn't believe that Selena dared to sue Madam Montague!

What kind of courage did she have?!

Of course, Madam Montague was unwilling to go to court. She was of such an old age, if she really went to court, wouldn't she be a laughingstock to everyone in New York?!

She gritted her teeth, "Go and get Mr. Montague Sr. out here! Let him see what a good daughter-in-law he has chosen for Raymond!"

However, at this moment, Selena was in the Montague family's old house, complaining to Mr. Montague Sr. with red-rimmed eyes. "Grandpa, that's what happened."

Mr. Montague Sr. had been resting at home recently. Upon hearing this, he was so angry that he was about to blow his top.

"The painting was torn?"

"Yes."

Selena was worried that Madam Montague and Catherine would add fuel to the fire in front of the old man. Plus, her suing the old lady indeed refreshed everyone's perception, so she thought it was better to inform the old man first. Mr. Montague Sr. loved her, knowing that Selena was not someone who easily got angry. Now that she was forced to complain, it showed how excessive Madam Montague had been.

He took a deep breath.

"I stand with you in this matter. You go back, do whatever you want to do; I won't help her."

With Mr. Montague Sr.'s reassurance, Selena felt relieved.

But she still asked a question.

"If this gets big, will it affect the Montague family?"

Mr. Montague Sr. slammed the table heavily.

"She, as an elder, deliberately made things difficult for you without considering whether it would disgrace the Montague family. You, as a junior, have nothing to fear. Selena, don't be afraid of anything; I always stand with you!" Selena's eyes reddened, and she felt warm in her heart.

As soon as she left, Mr. Montague Sr. immediately called Raymond.

"You scoundrel! Where are you?"

Raymond had already received three calls from the Montague family today, one from Carter, one from Catherine, and then from Mr. Montague Sr. "Ridgefield."

"Your wife has been so wronged, and you haven't said anything?! You're really useless; get back here now!"

Raymond suddenly fell silent, feeling even more annoyed at Selena.
