GoodNovelChapter 835 Confessed, Got Rejected Anyone would be ticked off reading those comments about themselves.
But Selena just skimmed through, saw there was nothing else, and then flopped onto the bed.
Meanwhile, at the bar.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRaymond had a bunch of empty bottles in front of him, and his cheeks were flushed from the booze.
Alex was belting out a song on the mic. When he finished, he saw Raymond had downed a whole bottle of vodka. "We dragged you out here to sing, not to drink yourself silly." Alex snatched the glass from Raymond and set it on the table. "What's up? Selena break your heart?" Paul and Victor both turned to look.
Victor, who was usually stuck at the hospital, rarely got a night off.
Raymond loosened his collar, looking annoyed. "I told her how I felt, and she shotdown." Alex took a swig from his own drink. "No surprise there. With all the crap you've pulled, if she said yes, she'd need her head checked by Victor." Victor, dressed in all white but in a casual trench coat, suddenly remembered something and said, "Remember when the Harper family askedto treat her hand? It was Selena's hand that was hurt, but Raymond hadsee Miss Stone first. If I'd been any later, Selena's hand would've been ruined. She's an artist, right?" That got everyone's attention.
Raymond's fingers twitched, and he rubbed his temples.
Alex took a deep breath and said, "Olivia probably knew Penny was Selena all along and played this trick to make Selena hate you. And it worked. Now she thinks you're trash." "Who you calling trash?" Raymond's tone was harsh, but he knew it might be true. Selena just didn't like him. If Victor hadn't brought it up, he'd almost forgotten about it. He'd done too many dumb things in the past. Alex downed his drink in one go and said, "Raymond, you suck at chasing girls. You think being nice is giving her stuff, but Selena's not into that. Remember when she sued Mrs. Montague? I didn't know she was Penny back then and thought she was brave. She's got guts. You need to show sreal sincerity." "Sincerity? I gave her half my properties, and she didn't care," said Raymond.
"Money's not gonna cut it. You need to show sself-sacrifice," Alex said.
Raymond stared at the glass in front of him, his profile sharp like a sketch. After a long pause, he said, "It's no use. No matter what I do, she won't like me." Alex raised an eyebrow and let out a cold laugh. "Then you don't really like her. If you can give up that easy, you can find someone else. Wantto find a few girls for you to pick from? Maybe you'll find one you like, and once you take her to bed, you'll feel better." "She's got someone she likes," Raymond said as he poured another drink. "My grandpa told me. When I asked Selena, she didn't deny it. She's always seenas the bad guy, belittling her, hurting her, and keeping her from the guy she likes." "No way, who does she like? Didn't she marry you right after graduation?" Alex asked. "Someone from school," Raymond said bitterly. "They might've even slept together."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlex went quiet. Someone like Selena might really be hung upon@ The Corona School crush. After all, school love was the most touching.
Raymond didn't stand a chance.
"Maybe you should just give up. She really doesn't like you, Alex said. "Yeah, she doesn't like me," Raymond said with a self-deprecating laugh.
She didn't like him, yet she could cling to his neck and call out so om passionately. She didn't like him, yet she could look at him with those eyes. So what exactly were her standards for liking someone?
