Chapter 1025 Raymond's Jealousy Richard wrapped up his spiel, and before Raymond could even blink, the guy had already paid the bill and bounced.
Raymond was a bit miffed. When he got like that, his lips would press into a tight line.
Selena slid the juice over to him and said, "This one's on me. Why'd you have to go and rile up Mr. Smith? He's actually pretty decent." Raymond stared at the food on his plate, totally uninterested, especially knowing Richard had footed the bill.
Selena gave his hand a little pat. "Not hungry?" Raymond just gave a slight nod.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe knew he was jealous, but his jealousy was something they needed to work on. So, she didn't push it and just started eating slowly. Raymond, if left alone, would eventually get bored of being mad.
After a while, Raymond silently grabbed a napkin and wiped her mouth.
By the tthey were ready to leave, it was 8:30 PM, and Selena's phone was blowing up with calls from work. S.M Corporation had just acquired a bunch of new businesses, so everyone was swamped, especially Selena, who was in charge of making decisions. Selena turned to Raymond, "I gotta get back to work." Tonight was their first dinner out since making things official, and it hadn't exactly been a blast.
Raymond wasn't too busy lately, especially after reorganizing the Montague Group. Now, he was mostly focused on finding William.
The worst thing for a couple is when one person is busy and the other isn't; it makes one feel left out.
He gripped the steering wheel in silence while Selena was already deep in conversation with Ann about the next meeting.
Raymond was about to head to Manston Manor, but then he heard her say, "All my documents are at Ashbourne Manor." So, he had to change course and drive to Ashbourne Manor.
The whole way, Selena was on the phone, sometimes with partners, sometimes with Ronald, and even Austin. Raymond stayed quiet. When they got to Ashbourne Manor, Selena got out of the car.
But she was still on the call. Seeing Raymond still in the car, she covered the phone's mouthpiece and asked, "You staying over tonight?" "No." He had already started the car again. "Let's talk when you have time." Selena quickly wrapped up her call and got back in the car.
"Are you mad? My company just took over a quarter of All Star Entertainment's business. We've been hiring, and the new folks haven't settled in yet. Scan't handle the workload, and the execs are super busy. I need to coordinate everything." Raymond's hands were still on the steering wheel, not saying a word.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSelena reached out and patted his hand. "How about dinner tomorrow night? At Manston Manor?" Raymond smiled, "Sure." Selena asked, "You really not staying tonight?" Raymond replied, "No, you're working overnight, right? If I stay, I'll just be a distraction."
That comment made her mind wander. Selena hesitated for a bit before leaning over and kissing the corner of his mouth. "Alright, I'm heading in." She got out, closed the door, and waved at him from below.
Selena's cheeks were flushed, and Raymond's ears were red.
When they used to hook up, he never thought they'd have such sweet everyday moments. This was nice.
Raymond drove to Sky Gallery, where Alex had been waiting forever.
As soon as Raymond showed up, Alex asked, "So, did you ask Selena? Why'd she stay at the hotel for two nights? Was she with her first love?" Raymond pushed him away, his tone cold, "Stop talking crap about her."
Alex stared at him. Before everyone knew Penny was Selena, Raymond had been having an affair with her, never admitting he liked her, just saying he wasn't tired of her yet.
Alex thought it made sense. Now that Raymond knew his affair partner was his wife how could he let go? He'd been willing to be the other man before.
