Chapter 698 More Heartless Than a Man Selena was getting dressed under the bed, and Raymond's eyes roamed over her body.
How could someone look so perfect, like she was made just for him? Selena was dressed now and glanced at him. "Mr. Montague," she said, her voice a bit hoarse and softer than usual since she needed something from him. Raymond thought of her cold demeanor with others and felt a wave of satisfaction. "What is it?" "About the Adams family and Sunshine Real Estate Company?" Selena asked.
After their intimate moment, she naturally started making requests.
"I'll call Gilbert, but dealing with the Adams family isn't that simple," Raymond said.
'If it were resolved quickly, she wouldn't cback,' he thought.
He knew Selena well; she didn't care about the bedroom games, but outside of that, she was ruthless.
She was tougher than most men.
Selena sighed in relief. Gilbert was the immediate issue. If she could handle him first, she could find employee dorms. At least Sunshine Real Estate wouldn't work with her anymore. "If the Adams family givestrouble, Mr. Montague, you'll help me, right?" she asked.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe Adams family had a good relationship with the Montagues. She worried Raymond might not help, leaving her to deal with the Adams family alone.
"Penny, chere," Raymond said, patting the spot beside him.
Selena walked over.
He pulled her close. "If you satisfy me, I'll handle everything for you." 'This jerk,' Selena thought but smiled and said, "Mr. Montague, I'll make sure you're satisfied." No matter how noble a man seemed, once he flirted with the woman he wanted, he turned into a beast.
Someone escorted Selena out, and Raymond lay back on the bed.
The pillow still had her scent, and he smiled. 'The first night in the new house felt pretty good,' he thought. When he met with Alex and Paul, they noticed his unusually good mood.
Alex, with his sharp eyes, saw the hickey on Raymond's neck.
He reached out and pressed down on Raymond's shirt collar. "Who did you sleep with last night?" "Penny," Raymond said.
Alex wasn't surprised. What amazed him was that even with temporary amnesia, Raymond's passion for Penny hadn't faded. "Raymond, could it be that you're in love with her?" Alex asked.
The room fell silent.
Raymond was just starting to grasp what it meant to like someone, and now Alex was throwing around the word "love." "No," Raymond quickly denied, though he felt a slight warmth at the thought.
Even Alex found it ridiculous. None of them really understood love.
Paul chimed in, "Did Victor check your head? Any idea when you'll recover?" He needed Raymond to help investigate Christopher's situation. With Raymond's amnesia, he couldn't remember key details, so they had to wait for him to recover. "It won't take long; it's not a big deal," Raymond said.
It was just the compounded effect of two injuries; it would heal soon.
Paul had been investigating for so long that he didn't mind waiting a bit longer. He nodded slightly.
After leaving Manston Manor, Selena went to the office to work overtime.
Since Sunshine Real Estate was no longer an option, she had to find other resources.
The artists' dormitory had to be sorted before the first web series was released. Only then would people want to sign with S.M Corporation for the benefits.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe was about to search online for available properties when her phone rang. It was Sandra.
She hadn't answered last night, and Sandra was probably fuming.
Sandra couldn't believe someone had the nerve to hang up on her.
She had been furious all night, and now that the call was connected, she speered "Are you looking for trouble?" Emily had cried all night, and her eyes were swollen.
After cooling down, Emily remembered Selena had taken photos, and she felt humiliated.
If Selena spread the photos of her wetting herself, she'd be mortified.
Full of resentment, Emily begged Sandra, "Mom, you have to get those photos back. Make that bitch pay!" Emily didn't dare provoke Selena herself but still had the Adams family behind her.
"Mom, if those photos get out, I won't live. I'll kill myself," Emily said.
So, even though Sandra was furious about being hung up on, she heldh back all r up on, she all night and didn't send anyone after Selena. Now, hearing Selena's voice, her anger boiled over. She had never seen a woman with such guts, daring to provoke the Adams family.
"Penny, right? Delete the photos you took of Emily last night, or you won't be able to handle the consequences," Sandra said.
