Raymond seemed unaware of the storm his words would stir up. He continued to look at Joseph.
"If Joseph doesn''t intend to throw Penny, can I take her away?"
Joseph felt as if his cheeks had been pped hard, and the few yboys who were close to him didn''t dare toe over to plead.
They were about the same age as Raymond, but their families had long ago taught them not to offend this person.
In the past, the Montague family had chosen Christopher as the heir. Christopher was gentle in nature, but Raymond waspletely different. He was usually not one to joke around, nor would he tell you when he was angry. Once Raymond started, no amount of pleading would help.
Joseph''s eyes were red from being forced, and he twitched his mouth.
"Mr. Montague, I was just joking with Penny earlier; please excuse me."
When Selena heard the words "joking around," she found them genuinely amusing. She never expected Joseph to be so flexible.
Her gaze fell on Madison. This infringement matter needed to be resolved quickly.
Madison was startled by her gaze, her face a mix of anger and resentment. But since Joseph was so spineless, would a minor celebrity like her dare to challenge Raymond?
Selena asked, "Madison, you didn''t tell me the name of this brand earlier."
"AN." Madison replied obediently.
Upon hearing the brand name, Selena raised her eyebrows, as it was indeed not a small brand. It gained poprity with its retro style, and several of its dresses made waves on the runway. However, she didn''t expect the other party to giarize her work directly.
"Alright, I''ll remember that."
After saying this, she looked at Raymond.
Raymond happened to be looking at her, too, and then he grabbed her hand and left.
In front of so many people, Selena couldn''t easily shake him off.
It wasn''t until they turned the corner that Selena ruthlessly shook off his hand.
"About what just happened, thank you, Mr. Montague." Selena replied politely.
Raymond''s expression darkened further as he continued to question her, "If I don''t intervene, who do you n to call?"
Selena remained silent.
He took a deep breath and sneered, "Can I at least get your private number now? I did help you, after all."
Selena took out a tissue and diligently wiped off the red wine stains on her dress.
From Raymond''s perspective, Selena''s skin was so fair it was almost blinding. Who had given her that ne?!
Selena asked, "Mr. Montague, have you ever been able to remain friends after a one-night stand? Let''s stick to work-rted calls in the future."
A hint of disbelief shed in Raymond''s eyes. He thought, ''She had been so obedient, but now, after ten times, she has be so cold.''
Just then, a waiter carrying a tray of red wine with ten tall sses on it passed by them.
As soon as Selena caught the scent, she knew it was Romanée-Conti. These wealthy people really treated this wine like water.
Next second, Raymond grabbed one of the sses without hesitation and sshed it on Selena''s neck.
The waiter was startled, "S-Sir..."
"Get lost!" Raymond shouted.
The waiter quickly lowered his head, pretending not to have seen the scene, and promptly left.
Raymond had already had a few drinks tonight, but he wasn''t drunk. He gazed at Selena with a heavy look.
It was the second time someone had sshed Selena, and it was Raymond who had done it.
She lowered her eyshes, feeling wronged.
She hadn''t even had a chance to wipe away the water droplets trickling down her neck.
Raymond reached over and grabbed the back of Selena''s neck, like apprehending a criminal, and pushed her into the nearby rest area.
The rest area was for touch-ups, with luxurious sofas, but there were always people around.
Selena hadn''t reacted yet when she was pressed onto the sofa.
He lowered his head and unhesitatingly licked the wine off her fair skin.
Selena felt her scalp tingle, and her head felt like it was about to explode.
She pushed him away, and reminded, "Mr. Montague, I believe the ten times are up."
Raymond''s thin lips reached the diamond ne.
Selena was so frightened by this stimtion that her legs went weak.
