Reclaiming Her Heart

Selena's lips parted slightly. Affected by the psychedelic, her eyes became misty.

Raymond had deliberately chosen to forget something, yet right now, they kept coming back to him. She was looking at him the same way she did that night not long ago. For some reason, his heart skipped a beat.

Selena took the chance to cling even tighter to him.

Seeing that Raymond didn't push Selena away at once, Joseph was puzzled.

He thought, 'Raymond admitted during the day that she wasn't his wife. Then what the heck is going on now?'

Then he looked at Selena, his Adam's apple rolling. "Penny, I'm Joseph. Come here."Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

He was certain that the drug had kicked in, and therefore Selena could no longer think straight. She would go with anyone.

Yet the second he reached out, he saw the stern look on Raymond's face. He withdrew his hand awkwardly.

Raymond was no fool. He knew exactly that Selena broke into his changing room during the day to get away from Joseph, so of course, on no ground would she be Joseph's girlfriend. "Mr. Anderson, you know exactly whether she's yours or not."

Before Raymond finished speaking, he paused and tilted his head to look at the restless woman next to his neck.

Selena looked innocent, but her actions were nothing but bold.

She had already torn Raymond's collar open with her lips. Right now, she was rubbing against him like a kitten who wanted more while kissing his neck non-stop.

She thought, 'Why is it so hot in here? What can I do to cool down? My body is burning. Good thing that Raymond is here. He's like an ice cube that soothes me.'

She kept rubbing against his body, desperately wanting to cool down yet to no avail. She ended up craving for more.

Joseph saw what she was doing and was turned on. Selena was an aloof woman to begin with, and now she looked nothing but charming. In his eyes, she was like a poisonous flower that kept seducing him. He thought, 'Raymond has feelings for her, too?

'No way. They say he has never been with any woman.'

Raymond pursed his thin lips, his eyes darkening to the utmost. He knew that if he let Selena continue, he might lose control.

He used his cold, strong arms to grab Selena's arms and waist tightly to stop her from moving.

Then he entered the elevator on the other side while holding her without saying anything to Joseph.

Joseph didn't have the guts to stop Raymond at all, let alone utter a word. He wouldn't dare to say no even if Selena was indeed his girlfriend.

He clenched his hands slowly, thinking, 'Fuck! Turns out that all the preparations I made were for him!

'I know better than anyone how effective the drug is. She'll do whatever he says tonight.'

The two men standing behind him said tentatively, "Mr. Anderson, shall we..."

"Piss off!"

Joseph was utterly disappointed. Furious, he pulled a long face and strode out of the hotel.

The elevator went up. Selena couldn't touch Raymond's waist, because he was clutching her arms, but she was still restless. She kept kissing him through his shirt.

Raymond's handsome face grew even darker. He wanted to let go of her so that he could call and tell the hotel manager to get another room.

Sensing his intention, Selena bit his collarbone hard, leaving a tooth mark.

He gasped in pain.

"It's so hot..."

She lifted her head, her eyes hazy as she stared at him.

Her eyelashes seemed wet with water, and she looked pitiful.

Raymond looked down and half-closed his eyes, feeling that his breath had turned chaotic for a few seconds. The second the elevator doors opened, he took her to his room directly. He stepped into the bathroom and turned on the tap to let out cold water.

Taking the chance, Selena wrapped her arms around his neck again. She smelled the cold breath coming from him and even had a strong desire. Her thin lips were right next to his ear. "Honey..."

Raymond turned around and pushed her into the bathtub full of cold water.

She screamed.

The icy water instantly dispelled all the heat, and she shivered.

Raymond asked, "Sober now?"
