Chapter 104 Are You Jealous? Compared to Caterlington's private room, the atmosphere in this private room was very serious and business- like, and it had been reserved for them year-round, even the decorations had Raymond's personal style. This building belonged to the Montague family, which had numerous businesses under its name. Most of the famous buildings in New York were their properties.
Upon hearing the word "move" [from the original text] With a sigh, Raymond turned his head and glanced out the window. He frowned, wondering if women would really like this. Alex patted Paul's shoulder and said, "Paul, you don't know, but Selena likes Raymond. Last tat the casino, she gavea billion dollars just to impress Raymond. It was a whopping ten billion, without even blinking an eye." Raymond frowned and stopped his nonsense.
"Let's have dinner," he said. Alex hit the nail on the head with his words. "What's the matter? Are you not enjoying the attention from a woman who likes you?," Alex asked. Alex was quite satisfied with Selena's looks and figure.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn all of New York, they were top-notch. She was much better than Olivia from the Stone family, who knows how many times stronger. "Raymond, since you don't like the woman at home, why not give Selena a try? Do you really want to wait for Olivia to cback? She initially said she wanted to pursue her dreams, and you two were too immature back then, both stubborn," Paul coughed, signaling Alex to stop. Alex also realized he had been too chatty and quickly picked up his glass, pretending to take a sip of wine. Raymond's phone rang, and coincidentally, Selena's phone rang in the next room.
She glanced at the flashing nand said to Caterlington, "Sorry, I have something to attend to. Please keep my relationship with Raymond a secret, especially since we are getting a divorce. If too many people find out, it won't be good in the future." Caterlington was not the type to be nosy, and Selena's tone seemed to suggest that she had no feelings for Raymond either, which puzzled him.
Raymond didn't care that Selena didn't seem like a capable and beautiful woman like him, but why did she seem so indifferent towards him? Although he didn't want to admit it, Raymond ranked among the top in terms of both family background and appearance among the men in New York. Selena couldn't appreciate him, These two people were really hard to understand. Selena had already left the private room with her phone, and the door of the next room happened to be opened by Raymond. They exchanged a glance and synchronously pressed the answer button.
Alice was calling Selena from her end, saying that James' condition suddenly beccritical and he was now in the intensive care unit. Selena furrowed her brows, thinking that the situation had stabilized earlier.
"Sister, just now, my brother-in-law's assistant cby with sthings, I don't know what was said, but father seems to be quite agitated." Selena's face darkened, and she pressed the elevator button directly. Raymond also followed her into the elevator as there was suddenly an urgent online meeting from overseas.
"Now we have to go back to the Montague family." The two entered the selevator. Raymond smelled a faint scent of alcohol on Selena, probably because she was getting a bit tipsy now, her cheeks slightly flushed.
Selena turned to look at him and asked, "Mr. Montague, are you also going to the first floor?" Raymond nodded, standing straight with a handsface devoid of warmth, his black eyes cold and distant, his figure tall and indifferent.
Selena actually wanted to know if her father's sudden change in condition was truly because of something inappropriate that Raymond's assistant had said, but Raymond himself shouldn't be as belittling as Catherine, at most he would just reprimand.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe began to reflect on whether she had done something to upset him recently at the Montague family to the point where he would send his assistant over, even during her father's hospitalization.
Selena's brows were cold feeling tired of this marriage emotionally. The phone rang again still Alicem calling. Nust as Selena was about to answer, she felt the elevator shake a few times, and before she could react, the elevator plunged into darkness. Her phone also fell to the ground, and she hurriedly bent down to pick it up, but because it was pitch black, her hand directly touched a piece of cold fabric. "Don't move."
Raymond's voice was no longer as cold, and he pulled her over, holding onto the handle inside the elevator and quickly pressing all the buttons below. This was the correct action to take when an elevator was in danger after all, they were on a high floor, and if it were to crash to the bottom, it could be fatal. Selena stopped moving her muscles tensed as she was clearly a bit scared. For Raymond, it was just a reflexive action, and only now did he realize how close they were.
The cold fragrance from her body kept drifting into his nose, and combined with the tense breathing in the dark environment, it created a certain ambiguous atmosphere on the edge of life and death. Like a romantic picnic on the edge of a hundred-foot cliff, full of danger, yet also full of enchantment.
