NovelEnglishChapter 190: A Drunken State of Mind The other side of this presidential suite was now vacant, and they were the only two people on this floor. The overhead lights made Selena's skin look exceptionally fair, her eyes shining brightly, and he wondered how long she had been waiting here.
"There is indeed something I need to discuss with you, Mr. Montague. May I cin and sit for a while?" Raymond raised an eyebrow. It was late at night, and she was waiting for him outside his hotel room, and she had previously painted a portrait of him.
His eyes squinted slightly, contemplating whether to refuse. After all, he wanted to keep his distance. Selena was worried that he would reject her, and this matter couldn't be explained in a short time. Misunderstandings had arisen with Ms. Montague, and she needed to explain everything step by step.
Raymond took the room key card and opened the door. Selena followed behind him, smelling the cold wood scent on him and a faint aroma of alcohol. The space seemed to have beccramped, and she realized belatedly that she had taken the initiative.

While she was on her way to the hotel, she received two more calls, all messages about cancellations of orders. After all the preparation work she had done, communicating with suppliers in advance, almost all of the suppliers had now canceled their cooperation with her.
The stuhad also been severely affected.
It was Grace who took action. She is not only a member of the Montague family but also quite skilled in the business world, which is why she manages Carter so strictly.
Selena sat down on the sofa, in the room, carrying a thermal box. Raymond took off his suit jacket and unbuttoned a few buttons at the top of his shirt, revealing his collarbone. Raymond, in whatever appearance, always has the ability to amaze people. Selena couldn't take her eyes off of him, thinking about that painting, as if she could add a little more detail to it.
"Speak. What's the matter?" Raymond leisurely rolled up the sleeves on his wrist, exposing his slender wristbones. He sat opposite her, with an elegant and relaxed posture.
The brightest lamp in the room was not turned on, and the dim lighting combined with the scent of alcohol made Selena inexplicably tipsy. It felt as if it was not Raymond who had been drinking, but herself.
Beauty, this kind of thing, can make anyone lose their composure, regardless of their gender. Before she could answer, Raymond saw her gaze fall on his wrist, still carrying a hint of admiration. "Selena?" Selena snapped back to reality and placed the thermal box in her hand on the coffee table.
"Mr. Montague, is your injury completely healed?" referring to the injury on Raymond's hand.
"Just get to the point." He didn't really like listening to these polite words, so being interrupted like this made Selena feel a bit awkward, and she coughed lightly.

Now that Mr. Ashford has a new girlfriend, Ms. Montague thinks that I have ulterior motives, and also..." She paused for a moment when she mentioned this, her gaze falling on Raymond's face.
He had no expression, probably because the alcohol was taking effect, and he slightly tilted his neck, the sexy Adam's apple moving up and down.
"And Ms. Montague probably knows about the night between you and me.
I didn't tell her, but she must have found out, so she blacklisted all my NT, So collaboration projects and even affected my studio. I initially thought of asking Mr. Ashford for help, but considering Mr. Ashford's respect for Ms. Montague, I gave up and decided to cand find you, Mr. Montague."
She mentioned what happened that night and stopped. After all, they were two people who had rolledm around on the sbed, even if both of them were cold-hearted, but in this kind of atmosphere, they both felt a subtle connection. After Selena finished speaking, she sat quietly, waiting for Raymond's response.
O.
But Raymond had been in meetings all day and had social engagements in the evening, in addition to being pressured by Mr. Montague Sr. recently. Now that he was finally calm, he felt a bit intoxicated. Selena sat for half an hour and didn't hear him say anything.
"Mr. Montague?"
