Chapter 145 I Suspect She Had Ulterior Motives
Selena's ankle heals quickly, but Raymond's palm was pierced directly, and it won't heal for several days.
Because the injury is on his right hand, he needs to cut open the old bandage when changing it. Raymond used the scissors a few times, only making a small cut.
Tonight at the bar, Raymond hardly exposed his injured hand, not even Alex knew he was hurt. Selena hesitated for a moment before walking over and taking the scissors from his hand.
Raymond froze for a moment, glanced at her briefly, then averted his gaze. Selena didn't look at him, she just focused on the wound.
After cutting open the bandage, she carefully took it off layer by layer. Once the bandage was removed, the wound was revealed. It had been stitched before and had healed well, which relieved her. She applied the ointment carefully and then wrapped it with a new bandage. When she finished everything, she looked up and was about to speak, but heard a voice coming from the door. "You guys..."
Selena frowned, turned her head to see that it was Alex standing at the door. Alex's face was filled with shock, and he even stumbled back a step, trying to see if he had walked into the wrong room. When Selena came in earlier, she didn't close the door because she thought she would be leaving soon. Now she finally felt awkward and quickly got up.
"It's wrapped up, Mr. Montague, so I'll leave now."
Raymond didn't say anything, but Alex was winking and wiggling his eyebrows on the side, as if he had discovered some incredible secret.
Selena knew he misunderstood, but even if she didn't explain, Raymond would definitely clarify later.
So she just nodded politely to Alex and picked up the thermos box and left. As soon as the door closed, Alex quickly approached.
"Tsk tsk, if I hadn't come tonight, I wouldn't have stumbled upon this scene. In the private room, you were pretending to be uncomfortable when someone kissed you, but I bet you two have already slept together." Alex was a screenwriter, and his thoughts were bold. He started scolding Raymond.
"I told you the girl liked you, but you didn't believe me. This lonely man and woman, she specially came to wrap your bandage? Did she injure your hand for you? Raymond, you're quite something. You finally escaped from the clutches of the Stone family and are looking for your second spring, right?"
Raymond's eyebrows furrowed tightly, feeling that this man talked too much.
"Quit babbling."
Alex chuckled and sat down on the side.
"So what were you thinking? Letting her get so close to you? I suspect she had ulterior motives. Otherwise, why would she take your cases? Has she been secretly in love with you for a long time?" "I didn't know her before."
"But that doesn't stop her from knowing you. Maybe she saw you at a certain event and remembered you."
Alex had a way with words. For a moment, Raymond actually believed what he said was true. But considering that Selena was married, he didn't pursue it further and changed the subject. "What are you doing here?"
Alex leaned back, looking delicate with his eyebrows and eyes, and placed the documents he was holding on the car.
"What else can I do? You left the files behind."
After saying that, he got up and was about to leave, but then he thought of something and spoke with a smile.
"You slept with this designer for one night. If she really got married, didn't her husband come looking for trouble? Your first time being promiscuous must have been intense, right?" "Get lost."
Alex could tell by his appearance that he must have been really angry that night, but if that was the case, why didn't Selena's husband cause any trouble?
So she really got married?
That was also a point of confusion for Raymond, but everything that happened afterwards indicated that Selena did indeed get married, although her husband didn't care about her. He didn't care about other people's marital situations, so he opened his computer and was about to continue working overtime when he heard a sound in the corridor.
