FreeGoodNovelChapter 644 That Slight Waver Selena hung up the phone without a second thought and got back to arranging the soft furnishings.
She had personally picked out every piece and already haggled with the manufacturers over the prices.
Now, she was on-site, directing the workers as they moved everything in bit by bit.
It would probably take another three days to finish. By the tRaymond cto check, Manston Manor would be done.
She let out a sigh of relief.
Three days later, she called Raymond again.
Since he had threatened to fire her, he hadn't reached out at all.
When he picked up, Raymond was in a meeting.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHearing it was about Manston Manor, he frowned. "Hold on." Selena thought he'd be there soon.
But she ended up waiting at the entrance of Manston Manor for three hours, nearly freezing into an ice sculpture, before Raymond finally showed up.
He was in a black suit, holding an umbrella because of the snow, with a coat draped over his shoulders.
Selena stood there, her nose red from the cold, shivering.
Raymond closed the umbrella, tossed it into the car, and walked up to her.
"Let's go." Selena's teeth were chattering, and her feet felt like blocks of ice.
Raymond didn't seem to care and walked several steps ahead.
Selena struggled to keep up.
The door had a double-door design with an electronic lock.
"Mr. Montague, please set the password." Every word she said made her teeth chatter, and her cheeks were bright red.
Raymond glanced at her, and she quickly turned her head away, thinking he didn't want her to see the password.
He entered his birthday.
Inside, he looked around the house, taking it all in.
Selena followed him. "Mr. Montague, are you satisfied?" "Just barely." His tone was indifferent.
Selena's face fell. "If there's anything you're not happy with, I can change it." Raymond sat on a nearby sofa, looking at her.
Her cheeks were red, and she was swaying, probably running a fever.
Selena had been so busy these past few days, planning Andrew's future and working on Manston Manor. She just wanted to hand over the house smoothly, and now he said it was just barely? Raymond didn't expect her to take it so seriously. He frowned, and just then, he got a call reminding him of a meeting in half an hour, so he got up. "That's it. How much of the design fee is left?" Selena lowered her head. "That depends on you, Mr. Montague." Raymond thought for a moment and wrote her a check for five million dollars.
"Is that enough?" She reached out to take it, but he suddenly pulled the check back.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Did you becmy interior designer because you slept with me?" Raymond asked.
Selena's eyelashes trembled, and for a moment, she couldn't respond.
He placed the check in front of her again, his tone flat.
"Don't use such methods next time. It's pointless." Selena didn't take the check but looked up at him.
"Then why did you do that that night, Mr. Montague?"
She was talking about Raymond kissing her in that alley. The light was dim, and from her angle, she could see his tense back. His hair was close to her chin, and if she lowered her head slightly, she could smell his shampoo.
"The kiss felt great, but I guess I'm over it. I don't feel anything anymore." Selena's heart ached, and then she suddenly realized.
'What am I thinking?'
Just because the Montague family treated him poorly and he didn't om understand love did that mean she could forgive what he had done? Raymond's words at that moment made her resolve firm. She silently took the check.
Raymond felt inexplicably annoyed seeing her say nothing and left with a parting remark.
"Don't make yourself so cheap next time. It's just a renovation jobb ve need to trade your body for it." Those words hit Selena like a slap.
She immediately realized how ridiculous her slight wavering had been.
