Reclaiming Her Heart

"Selena, you can change clothes in here, and then come out for a soak. Haven't you been working overtime lately? A soak should help you relax a lot."

Selena rubbed her slightly sore neck, and the next second, a cool hand naturally landed on her neck.

"Let me massage it for you."

It had to be said that when Raymond was really pursuing someone, he could be quite humble.

There was no one around at the moment, and the hot spring pool was shrouded in mist, making the atmosphere quite ambiguous.

Moreover, the two of them were close, and his hand was gently massaging her neck. "Is the pressure too much?"

Selena lowered her eyelashes. "I'll go change clothes."

She was indeed very tired recently, so why not enjoy a comfortable soak? Besides, such peaceful days might not come again, as Tessa was still in the hospital, and the Smith family might not let her, the culprit, off easily. After she went in, Raymond's lips curved slightly, and he turned into the changing room next door.

When Selena came out in a hot spring swimsuit, Raymond also came out at the same time. Seeing her in that outfit, his pupils instantly contracted.

Selena's skin was very delicate, and the light blue dress fit her body perfectly, accentuating her curves.noveldrama

Having been intimate with her so many times, he certainly knew how soft her waist was to the touch.

And how enchanting it was when her legs wrapped around him.

Selena took a few steps forward, then suddenly stopped and glanced back at him.

Raymond's whole body stiffened, feeling a bit unnatural, and the next second, he felt something flowing from his nose.

She quickly walked into the changing room and came out with a wet tissue.

"Raymond, you're having a nosebleed."

Selena was quite oblivious in this regard and didn't realize he was having a nosebleed because of looking at her. She thought he had overworked himself and was having health issues.

As she approached, he could smell her fragrance more clearly, and his head felt a bit dizzy.

"Raymond?"

Selena raised her hand to wipe his nosebleed.

It took him a few seconds to react, quickly averting his gaze. "It's nothing."

He grabbed the wet tissue, tilting his head slightly.

Selena frowned. "If you're not feeling well, let's skip the soak tonight. I'll take you to your room to rest."

Raymond directly grabbed her hand and led her to the edge of the hot spring pool.

"I'm just feeling too hot. You go in first."

Selena was skeptical, but once she got into the water, she felt so comfortable that the fatigue of the past few days seemed to float away. Because of the steam from the hot water, her cheeks were tinged with pink, making her look very tempting.

Raymond's nosebleed started again, and he quickly walked back to the changing room.

Everything today had been planned perfectly, including the dress she was wearing.

But he hadn't expected this reaction from himself.

After using three tissues, he looked at his reflection in the mirror, feeling embarrassed.

His phone buzzed at that moment. He glanced at it but ignored the message.

When he came out, he had regained his composure and joined her in the water, sitting next to Selena.

Someone brought in a fruit platter and drinks, placed them nearby, and then left.

Selena rarely had such a relaxing moment. Seeing Raymond pour two glasses of wine, she accepted one.

"The alcohol content is low, it's fruit wine."

"Okay."

She took it without hesitation, took a sip, and squinted her eyes in satisfaction.

Raymond's Adam's apple bobbed, and his gaze became heated.

Selena, warmed by the hot water and the wine, had a slightly hazy look in her eyes.

"Selena."

He called her name, unable to resist tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. "Lawrence has been making moves recently. I've had people keeping an eye on him. You don't need to worry about the Tessa incident." Selena took another sip of the wine, surprised by its taste. It was quite good.

Little did she know, Raymond had carefully selected it, knowing it would make her want to drink more.

And with him talking business so seriously, her guard was completely down.
