Selena was extremely tired at the moment. If Raymond had been even a minute later, she would have likely fallen asleep leaning against the wall.

So when she heard the sound of the elevator opening and closing, her eyes lit up and she looked up, immediately adopting a respectful attitude.

“Mr. Montague.”

Regarding the slight brightness in her eyes, Raymond was somewhat pleased, so his expression

softened a bit.

He swiped his card to enter the room, with Selena following behind him and placing the insulated box on the coffee table.

“Mr. Montague, this is tonight’s soup,” said Selena.

She held a pink thermos that looked very delicate. Raymond had never imagined that Selena would use a thermos of this color. In her work, she always gave off a professional vibe and focused

on business matters.

There was a hint of surprise in his eyes, though he only unbuttoned two buttons on his suit.

After Selena finished delivering the soup, she intended to leave. After all, being alone together

could easily make him think she had ulterior motives.

“Well, Mr. Montague, enjoy your soup,” she said, turning to leave.

However, she heard him say, “Aren’t you taking the thermos back?”

Selena wanted to say that it wasn’t necessary, but she realized that there might not be any extras

at Ashbourne Manor for the time being.

After all, she seldom stayed there. It seemed like Raymond wanted her to wait until he finished eating before leaving.

So Selena sat down, with a composed demeanor that surprised Raymond.

“Then I’ll wait until Mr. Montague finishes eating,” she said.

In Selena’s mind, Raymond was a client and her soon–to–be ex–husband legally. To put it bluntly,

they had been intimate, so deliberately avoiding stispicion would come off as pretentious.

It wouldn’t be good to make Raymond think she was playing hard to get. So, staying calm might leave a better impression.

Raymond raised an eyebrow. There was a kitchen in the suite, and he had intended for her to heat up the soup. It was already nine o’clock, and she had taken at least an hour delivering the soup to her male client and waiting for him to finish.

What was she thinking? Raymond furrowed his brow, about to ask her to get a bowl from the kitchen. However, when he looked up, he noticed that Selena had fallen asleep on the couch.

Selena was indeed exhausted. She hadn’t slept all night, driving for several hours from the county to New York City alone. Then she had been busy stewing the soup. Although stewing the soup was not physically demanding, she couldn’t afford to fall asleep during the journey.

She had pushed through and delivered the soup, even having a strange interaction downstairs. Now that she had finally quieted down, sleepiness struck her intensely.

Raymond had never seen someone fall asleep in less than a minute. Was she faking it? He approached her and heard her soft breaths. There were faint dark circles under her eyelids. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

He remembered she had mentioned going to the county last night, and he understood now.

Deciding to leave her be, Raymond turned to take off his suit and unbutton his white shirt. His figure was sleek and well–defined, with a slender waist.

One could faintly see the explosive energy beneath the toned muscles. Selena had already experienced his fierceness in bed, but she had no chance to appreciate it now.

Raymond carelessly threw his suit aside and went into the bathroom. When he came out, he saw Selena had pulled his suit over her, probably feeling cold. Raymond frowned and walked up to her.

Trying to take off the suit, Selena pulled it tightly.

Rarely, a trace of annoyance appeared in Raymond’s eyes, not understanding how things had turned out like this when he was just delivering soup.

He took a deep breath and threw off the suit, letting her hold onto it. Alex happened to call, so he went to the balcony to answer the phone.

“Raymond, want to go out for a drink?”

Alex’s face was smiling, holding a wine glass in his hand.

“By the way, I’ve been working on a new script recently. If Selena comes looking for you, tell me in detail about your relationship, maybe I’ll get some Inspiration.”

“Get lost.”

Raymond was about to hang up, but Alex seemed to sense an unusual atmosphere.

“Your tone is a bit less gloomy than before. Did I hit the mark? Is that beautiful woman in your bed? Who said that the first time should be saved for the night with the Stone family?”

Raymond’s face immediately turned dark, unexpectedly reminded of his first time with Selena.

Indeed, it was his first time, completely following his body’s instinct, and he didn’t expect to leave so many marks on her. What surprised him even more was that a married woman had left him with such an unforgettable night.

His Adam’s apple rolled, dispelling other thoughts in his mind, and he hung up on Alex directly.
