Chapter 227 She leaned on his arm and acted coquettishly.
When Selena heard this, she nodded quickly, "Okay." Rosalind saw the two of them chatting together in front of her, standing close together. She quickly inserted herself between them, pushing Selena aside.
Selena had no choice but to back away a little.
Rosalind looked up and took the painting from Raymond's hand.
"To be honest, it's just average. This level wouldn't even make it to the surface at my art academy. I don't know what the teacher was thinking today to give it a perfect score." She was already a bit rude in saying this, and even insulted Selena while she was standing right in front of her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSelena was still in the Fang family at the moment, and she had something to ask for, so she regarded Rosalind's offense as a straightforward and outspoken little princess.
In the subtle silence, Raymond followed up on Rosalind's words.
"Selena is your senior." This statement made Rosalind very embarrassed. She really didn't expect this woman to also be from the New York Academy of Fine Arts.
A stiff smile appeared on her face, and she was completely unhappy.
"Raymond, what's wrong with you? We haven't seen each other for three years, and you're still helping an outsider." She leaned on his arm and acted flirty.
Raymond's face, however, showed no emotion, just a faint raise of his eyebrow, with a hint of laziness. He probably didn't intend to reprimand Rosalind seriously.
Harrison saw this scene and helplessly chuckled, "This girl has always been so rude. If she keeps going like this, she'll eventually suffer for it. Raymond, thankfully you're married, otherwise she might really bother you in the future." "What's the difference? Whether Raymond is married or not, if he truly liked that woman, he wouldn't have left for three years. If that woman knows what's good for her, she should initiate a divorce herself." "Occupying the public toilet without shitting." Upon hearing this, Selena's mouth twitched, not because she was angry, but because she found it amusing. Who is the public toilet in this scenario, and who is the shit? Rosalind probably realized her mistake and felt a bit discouraged. "Oh well, Raymond, why don't you stay for dinner tonight?" Raymond had received a call from Harrison earlier asking him to cand taste the best the countryside had to offer, so he nodded in agreement. "Mr. Rockefeller, sorry to bother you." Harrison didn't really want to deal with Rosalind anymore. After all, she had been interested in Raymond for quite stime.
"Rosa, go pour Raymond and Selena a glass of water." Rosalind glared at Selena, reluctantly letting go of Raymond's arm and went to pour the water.
Raymond sat down on the sofa nearby, which was a two-seater sofa. Selena was already sitting on it, leaving no room for a third person.
Rosalind walked over with a tray, and upon seeing the two sitting on a two-seater sofa, made her even more upset.
Considering that she had just made a mistake, she didn't feel right to say anything further, and simply placed the two cups of tea in front of them.
The fragrance of the ripened tea filled the air, giving a sense of tranquility.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSelena heard him ask, "Has the issue with the floor been resolved?" "Yes, Mr. Rockefeller promisedthat if anyone cancels their order, he will contactimmediately." Raymond raised his hand, wanting to pick up the water to drink, and Selena also wanted to do the same.
When Rosalind placed the cups of water, she was already in a huff. They should have been placed one on the left and one on the right, so the person sitting on the left would take the cup on the left, and the person on the right would take the one on the right. But Rosalind didn't like Selena, so the cups were placed one after the other.
Now, both Raymond and Selena reached out their hands, and their fingertips grasped the scup of water. In just a few days, this situation had already occurred more than once.
When their fingertips touched, both of them froze for a moment.
Raymond's hand, slender like jade, quickly withdrew, and a frown appeared on his forehead.
Selena also felt the subtle tension and quickly spoke, "Mr. Montague, please go ahead." Rosalind sat on the sofa across from them, witnessing this scene and nearly jumped in frustration.
She couldn't be sure if it was just her imagination, but there was definitely something strange between the two of them. Even though she was sitting there too, it felt like she couldn't break into their interaction.
