GoodNovelChapter 975 Wait Until He Is Willing to AcceptAlex chimed in, "Yeah, Selena's pretty sharp. She called a few of us and then took off. If she'd stuck around any longer, Elbert and Harry would've been on her tail. She even managed to sort everything out at the company before she left." Alex and Paul's words dripped with sarcasm, taking jabs at Raymond's poor judgment.
Victor, who knew the real story, wasn't around tonight, so no one was there to defend Selena.
Normally, Raymond would've snapped back at Alex and Paul. But now, he just stayed quiet, nursing his glass of wine.
It felt like all the bitterness in the world was churning in his stomach. He tried to drown it with wine, but each sip only made it worse, adding a layer of melancholy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTurns out, if Selena didn't like him, nothing he did mattered.
Raymond swirled the wine in his glass, and after a few more sips, Richard walked in. "Raymond, coutside withfor a sec." Raymond frowned and looked up, slightly drunk. "Get lost." Richard, pissed off, grabbed him. "Tessa's in Silver Bay City. You need to take care of her; she's got a heart condition." Raymond, annoyed, tried to push Richard away, but then he heard Richard say, "Didn't you and Selena break up? What's wrong with meeting Tessa?" Raymond replied coldly, "Even if I broke up with Selena, I'm not interested in Tessa." Richard's face darkened, and just as he was about to lose it, Tessa spoke up. "Richard, Raymond must be feeling really bad right now. Can you let him go? You're being rude." Everyone turned to look at the door, where Tessa stood.
She was dressed to the nines and looked pretty, but her pale complexion showed she was often sick.
Richard quickly let go of Raymond and frowned. "I told you not to cto places like this." Tessa smiled and walked in slowly. "But Raymond's here, so I wanted to see him." She looked around and nodded politely. "Hi everyone, I'm Tessa Smith, Richard's sister." Her voice was clear and innocent, like a child's, with no hint of deceit.
She walked over to Raymond and gently patted his back. "Honey, how are you feeling?" Alex teased, "Ms. Smith, you're pretty bold, calling him that right off the bat." Tessa replied, "This is my way of showing I'm serious about Raymond. I'm not afraid of being laughed at. I just like him. When I heard about his situation, I call the way from Vistalia. I had already made arrangements with the people here, but it turns out he could handle it himself. He's really amazing." Her eyes sparkled as she looked at Raymond, openly showing her admiration and affection.
As the daughter of the Smith family, Tessa had always gotten what she wanted. But to be so open in pursuing a man, she must really like him a lot.
Plus, Tessa's family background matched well with Raymond's.
Alex squinted, momentarily at a loss for words due to her straightforwardness.
Compared to Selena, who left after hearing about Raymond's trouble, Tessa call the way from Vistalia, and it was known she had a heart condition. She must really like Raymond a lot.
Alex smirked, "No wonder they say marriages should be between families of equal status." This was another dig at Selena. Because Selena's family wasn't wealthy, she left so quickly.

Tessa, holding onto Raymond, smiled. "I know you're talking about Selena. She sold Raymondcout for three Hollywood spots. I really dislike her. If Raymond likes her, I'll wait until he's willing to accept me." Richard quickly scolded her. "Shut up."
Tessa stuck out her tongue, looking innocent. "That's just how I I feel. I'm not afraid of being rejected.
Richard, I chere prepared to be turned down hundreds of times." Richard rubbed his temples, feeling that Tessa was too unreserved.
But Tessa's words made everyone feel she was very sincere.
