Chapter 1014 I Like You Too Raymond never really thought about going head-to-head with Christopher. Sure, growing up in Christopher's shadow made him want to outdo him at one point, but he'd moved past that youthful arrogance. Now, he was pretty indifferent about it.
For a moment, Raymond was stumped on how to respond. But if Christopher ever posed a real threat to William, Raymond wouldn't hesitate to take him out.
His relationship with Christopher wasn't exactly terrible, but it wasn't all sunshine and rainbows either.
He glanced at the message from Selena, and the smile that had faded from his face slowly returned.
Raymond texted Selena: [Seen my latest Facebook post?] Selena was scrolling through Raymond's updates. She had no idea he'd taken those kinds of photos. It didn't really fit his CEO image.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn the pics, he looked more like a guy who'd just fallen in love.
Even with that cringy photo of their fingers intertwined, Selena felt her cheeks heat up.
But thinking about everything she'd been through lately, that sweetness turned a bit bitter.
Selena: [Yeah, I saw it.] Raymond: [Got any thoughts?] Selena: [Nice shots.] When Raymond read that, his eyes went cold, and he sat up straight.
A normal person wouldn't think that about the photo, especially not her.
Raymond: [Nothing else to say?] Even without seeing him, Selena could picture his expression.
He'd be looking cold, eyebrows slightly furrowed. If she were next to him, he'd be giving her that dark look, and if she didn't say what he wanted to hear, he'd probably want to strangle her. Raymond waited three minutes, and still no new message from Selena. That made him instantly annoyed.
Raymond: [Really? Nothing else? Don't regret it.] He pursed his lips and sent the message, thinking he didn't need to keep trying if she wasn't going to reciprocate. He could just delete the post and act like it never happened. But just as he opened Facebook, a new message from Selena popped up, and it was super short.
Selena: [I like you too.] Raymond almost dropped his phone. He even leaned in closer to make sure he wasn't seeing things.
'Selena said she likes me?' He thought maybe he was too tired from staying up late and wasn't thinking straight. But he stared at the message for a long time, and it was still there on his screen. This wasn't a hallucination. Raymond: [Selena, are you still drunk?] Even though Raymond had cryptically posted that announcement on Facebook, he felt like he'd overca mental hurdle.
Since he liked her, he'd treat her well, no matter where her feelings were at the moment.
As long as she stayed with him and was willing to be with him, that was enough.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTo him, liking someone meant being able to be with someone pleasing to the eye for a lifetime.
The more they were together, the more she'd definitely like him.
But he didn't expect her to say it first.
Raymond read that short sentence over twenty times.
Selena's message cthrough again: [Yeah, I'm still drunk and don't want to sober up, is that okay?]
Raymond always had to be in control during their ttogether, to make her talk nonsense. But now, her few words had him so flustered he didn't know what to do.
He'd been lounging with his legs crossed, leaning back in his chair, looking a bit lazy. Now he put his legs down, sat up straight, and seriously typed on his phone with both hands. He thought for ten minutes and still didn't know how to reply. So he turned to Paul next to him, "How should I reply to this?"
Paul frowned and leaned over. When he saw Raymond and Selena's chat, his face instantly darkened, 'Is this flirting?' Raymond was still asking, "How should I reply?" Paul even suspected that Raymond was showing off on purpose.
