NovelAmazoneChapter 6 Someone in His Mind Selena was taken aback at first, but she soon calmed down. She wasn't worried about being recognized at all since she rarely appeared in the Montague family except for visiting Cassius during holidays. Raymond himself had never seen what his wife looked like, let alone others who wouldn't be interested in someone on the fringes like her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThinking of Raymond's reaction, Selena smiled with a hint of regret. "Maybe I did something wrong to offend Mr. Montague." Carter liked good-looking people regardless of their profession or background. And in front of such a pretty woman like Selena, he couldn't help but soften his tone unconsciously.
"How could you? Your designs are very artistic. Although Raymond focuses more on the business world, he didn't start off with finance at the beginning. He has double degrees, and one happens to be related to art, so he can definitely appreciate your design. Maybe he's not in the right mood lately because of the divorce." Selena said nothing yet Matthew asked in surprise, "Raymond is married?" Carter nodded. "He got married early, but I heard that right after he cback this time, he contacted his lawyer for a divorce." Carter rarely stayed in the Montague family, especially after becoming an adult, as he spent most of his tpartying outside. Thus, he never met Raymond's wife.
It was Matthew's first thearing about Raymond's marriage, so he beccurious. "I thought that villa in Manhattan was Raymond's wedding house. It turned out he had already got married and was even preparing to get a divorce. Thus, the place is for himself only?" Carter said, "I still think it's his wedding house. Raymond doesn't like his current wife. They were forced into marriage at the beginning. But there was someone else my cousin liked before. That villa in Manhattan was designed for that woman." After saying that, he handed Selena a glass of juice. "When he comes later, I'll show him your design. He should be interested." Selena accepted it and politely smiled at him. "Thank you. If this deal goes through, I'll definitely treat Mr. Ashford to dinner." Carter liked her humble attitude very much and couldn't help but say, "Sure. Money won't be a problem. Besides, if you do Raymond's case well, you're gonna be even more popular." Selena nodded as she realized that if the deal went through, it would increase her visibility and successfully enter Raymond's circle. In that case, the stuwould no longer be short of orders.
*** The private room door on the other side of the corridor opened with a tall man walking in, exuding an intimidating cold aura.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs soon as he stepped inside, his phone rang again from Carter, but Raymond didn't pick it up.
The man beside him saw his expression and found it amusing. "What's that face about? Who has just offended you?" Many people were in this large private room tonight. Yet all of them knew better than to offend Raymond. Even among the upper class, Raymond was still top on the list. The guests tonight all kept a distance from him automatically. Without thinking twice, Alex casually handed over a glass of wine. He was a friend of Raymond, who looked extremely gentle and elegant. "Is it because of the divorce? I heard that she refuses to sign." Raymond getting divorced wasn't exactly a secret anymore, so Cassius would probably hear about it soon enough.
Raymond took off his cufflinks, throwing them towards a waiter before sitting on the sofa and m crossing this long legs. "She'll sign it sooner or later. She knew better than anyone else why we got married back then." His cold tone revealed that he didn't wanna talk about it anymore.
Raymond was upset tonight, not because of his nominal wife but the woman he met just now. He just couldn't figure it out. 'She seemed to be a virgin, yet how cshe's been doing it for three years?' he wondered. Selena had occupied his mind. He just couldn't stop thinking about the night he spent with her.
Coincidentally, Carter called again, urging him to go downstairs to m another private foom, saying he wanted to talk face-to-face.
