Chapter 1021 The Point Is Not Whether He LikesRichard slammed the phone down, fuming.

Tessa shot him a furious look. "Seems like you and Selena are pretty tight." Richard plopped down next to her. "Tessa, Raymond's not into you. He's got someone else. Why are you still hung up on him?" Tessa's lips curled into a sneer. "Richard, it's not about whether he likes me. It's about whether I want him. If you won't help, I'll get Lawrence to." Richard's face tightened. He knew Lawrence would do anything for Tessa, and with Wind backing her, getting rid of Selena would be a breeze. Tessa spat out, "You've fallen for that witch too. Get out. I don't need your help." Richard felt a pang of disappointment. Tessa was the family's darling, and her heart condition meant everyone had to coddle her.

"Have you taken your meds?" Richard asked, concerned. "Wind said you're not well. Lethelp you." He grabbed the medicine from the table and a glass of warm water, trying to hand it to her, but Tessa slapped it away.

"Do you like Selena?" Tessa glared at him.

"We're just friends," Richard replied.

Tessa's eyes dropped. "Is she more important than me? Are you okay withsuffering?" Richard stared at the water, lost for words.

"Or maybe you never liked me," Tessa continued. "Because of my illness, the whole family focuses on me. Remember when you had a fever for three days and no one noticed because they were all takingto the hospital? Do you hatefor that?" Richard's face darkened. He set the glass down and spoke seriously, "You're my sister. I've never thought that way. But since Raymond and Selena are in love, you shouldn't be the other woman. You're a Smith; you can have any guy you want. There are plenty better than Raymond." "I just want Raymond!" Tessa shouted, throwing the glass on the table.

No one dared to act like this in front of Richard, but he tolerated Tessa because she was his sister.

Richard took a deep breath and patted her head. "Alright, what do you wantto do? But no dirty tricks." Tessa's face lit up. She grabbed his sleeve and shook it playfully. "I knew you were the best. Just stay quiet when Selena asks for your help. That's not too much, right?" Richard hesitated, but seeing the medicine bottle, he didn't want Tessa to have an episode, so he agreed. Leaving the villa, Richard lit a cigarette. He was a playboy, but he had rules: no messing with anyone in a relationship or married.

That's why he thought Tessa was crossing the line.

Richard's phone rang again. It was Raymond.

"I've sent the restaurant location to your phone. Seven o'clock tonight," Raymond said.

Already annoyed, Richard got even angrier. "Don't get too cocky. Selena might dump you any day now." Raymond didn't bother responding and hung up.

Evening.

Selena had been working overtat the company. All Star Entertainment had been firing executives left and right, but that was it. No real action from the authorities.

But Selena was satisfied. All Star Entertainment took a big hit, and companies that wanted to work with them turned to S.M Corporation.

Selena had been swamped, taking over many of All Star Entertainment's business segments.

She had dinner plans with Raymond that night and remembered herm agreement with Richard. She wanted to tell him herself, but Raymond said he'd handle it. At six-thirty, there was a knock on Selena's office door. "Cin," she said.

Raymond walked in, looking sharp in his suit.

Seeing him made Selena blush, remembering their late-night escapade in the office.

Raymond's fingers traced the spot where she had sat last night, his eyes full of mischief.

Their eyes met, and she quickly broke the tension. "Get those dirty thoughts out of your head!" Raymond chuckled. "I didn't say anything." But his eyes said it all.
