EuropeNovelChapter 26 Meetat Wolfland Shelley had always been blunt and to the point.
Selena lowered her eyes, without hiding her disappointment. James is getting old now. He had been lack of business talent, and it was even harder for him to make wise decisions as he was aging. Shelley caught a glimpse of Selena's face. She knew she was upset, so she changed the subject. "You just said you were paid on time. What does that mean? Did you do Raymond's business?" "Yeah, I'll design his house in Manhattan." Shelley's eyes widened instantly.
She couldn't help but give a thumbs up. "Selena, you are so generous! Designing a wedding house for your husband's first love? Or not just that, but also his future wife." Selena laughed at Shelley's words and confessed, "Tell you something funny. Raymond doesn't even know I'm his wife." The expression on Shelley's face was even funnier. Her mouth twitched several times before finally making an admiring look. "I'm shallow-minded. So you intentionally hid your identity, just to disgust him when he finds it out one day? You are such a talented designer." Selena laughed again. All the frustration from earlier had dissipated somewhat.

Later on, the doctor cin to remove Selena's IV drip while Shelley helped her complete hospital discharge procedures.
When they sat down in the car together, Shelley couldn't hold back her curiosity, "So how long will you get divorced? To be honest, if other women married Raymond, they would fall for him. His charming face alone makes the deal worthwhile. "Not to mention his top-notch business skills and his family background. That face is just a bonus." "Forget it. I never thought about having anything with Raymond." Selena said.
"Only you thought that way. Any other women would have thrown themselves at him. When Raymond married you three years ago, who knows how many girls in New York cried their eyes out?" If Selena hadn't been low-key enough and stayed out of sight in public, she would have beca target of those girls long ago.
Selena smiled. She didn't take Shelley's words seriously. Raymond was her client-to-be, nothing more than that. Now she needed to get the floor plan for the villa in Manhattan and start constructing the design in her mind. She encouraged herself, 'I must seize the chance. It will decide whether I can enter Raymond's circle. I have to give it 100%.' Shelley dropped her off at her apartment, reminding her, "Selena, it's good that he doesn't know your identity. It'll save you trouble later. Still, be careful! He may be unattainable, but still a man after all." Shelley left behind an air kiss before leaving.
Selena stood there pondering what that meant, then she shook her head with a smile.
After returning home, she realized that she hadn't gotten around to asking for Raymond's contact yet. She couldn't ask from The Montague Family-if they found out after three years of marriage, she didn't even have her husband's contact, who knew how they were gonna comment on her? As she pondered what to do, a friend request notification popped up on her phone.

It was from Raymond. Selena was surprised, but then she realized that ed that her contact was on the photo.
Quickly, Selena accepted the request, texting to thank him for taking her to the hospital. She didn't expect a response from him. She did it just out of courtesy. Then she dived into browsing various art pieces for inspiration.
In fact, she had two mobile numbers-one for work with only clients on it, and another private ohe for family and friends. The number on the photo was her work number and its accompanying Whataccount.
As she got up to leave, she received another text message on her private number tombeetat Wolfland tomorrow morning to talk about something."
