Chapter 927 Feed Him with Your mouth Selena said, "You should get a caregiver for him and check if he has a fever. His injury is serious this time. Why didn't he stay in the hospital longer?" John explained, "Ms. Cooper, Mr. Montague was supposed to stay in the hospital for another two weeks, but when he heard Brenda hurt Max, he insisted on leaving. We've also found out that Brenda isn't pregnant with his baby. He didn't touch her that night. It was you who cto Manston Manor that night, so he... After you left, he fell asleep. Brenda lied to him and to us. The baby is actually with a male servant." Selena's jaw dropped, unsure how to react to this bombshell.
She couldn't help but feel a bit relieved knowing Raymond hadn't touched Brenda.
Selena asked, "What about Brenda?" John replied honestly, "She treated Max so badly that Mr. Montague has already dealt with her." Selena immediately thought of the baby in Brenda's belly. If Brenda was gone, then the baby must be too. John quickly added, "Ms. Cooper, because of Brenda's emotional instability, the baby wouldn't have survived anyway. It's her own karma. Don't overthink it." John worried Selena might forget about Raymond, so he brought the topic back, "Mr. Montague was in a really bad state last night. He doesn't want to see anyone today. Maybe you should cand check on him." Selena thought about the deal she made with Richard and felt conflicted.
If she decided to distance herself from Raymond, continuing to be soft-hearted and compromising wouldn't be good for either of them.
But if she wanted to be with Raymond, she shouldn't have taken Richard's benefits and should avoid further contact with Raymond.

After arguing with Raymond last night, Selena was afraid he might throw something at her if she showed up now. John wanted to say more but, knowing both Selena and Raymond's temperaments, he nodded, "Alright." John was there last night and knew there was tension between Selena and Raymond. It might be better to let them both cool down. John went to the second floor and knocked on the door.
Raymond didn't respond.
John pushed the door open and went in.
The curtains were drawn, making the room pitch dark.
John quickly opened the curtains and heard Raymond's hoarse voice, "Letsleep a bit more." Raymond's voice was even raspier than yesterday, which made John jump.
John quickly asked, "Mr. Montague, do you have a fever?" But Raymond didn't answer.
John immediately called for a doctor.
Turns out, Raymond did have a fever, and it was pretty bad.
He'd been discharged too early, and his wound got wet during a bath last night, leading to a mild infection. Now he couldn't take any meds and was just lying in bed.
The doctor set up an IV drip and wanted to transfer him to the hospital, but Raymond refused to go.
Everyone at Manston Manor was on edge. The doctor kept going in and out of Raymond's room, but no matter what they said, Raymond wouldn't listen.
The doctor finally asked John, "Can you notify Mr. William Montague? If Mr. Raymond Montague doesn't get his fever down soon, it could be serious..." John had no choice but to call Selena again.

Raymond didn't like people in his room. Since Brenda left, the room had been thoroughly disinfected. Now, Raymond lay on the bed with an IV in his hand, looking pale and sickly. Selena held the medicine the doctor had given her. Since Raymond wouldn't cooperate, she was asked to help feed it to him.
She sat by the bed, thought for a moment, and called out, "Raymond, take the fever medicine first." Raymond didn't speak, not expecting her to come.
Knowing she was there eased his anxiety, but it quickly turned into anger and frustration.
Selena tried to put the fever medicine into his closed lips, which reminded her of when Max was sick and she had to feed him medicine. Max was smart but hated taking medicine. Every tshe fed him, he would spit it out.
As soon as the fever medicine entered Raymond's mouth, he m frowned turned his head away, and En refused to take it.
Selena gently turned his face back and tried to feed him the medicine again, but this the clenched his teeth. She got up and asked John outside the door, "He won't take it. Is there another way?" John's eyes flickered. "I do have a way, but it depends on whether you're willing to cooperate." Selena asked, "What is it?" John replied with a knowing smile, "You can feed him with your mouth." Selena blushed at John's blunt suggestion.
John continued, "If you feed him with your mouth, Mr. Montague will definitely take it."
