Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 277 A Dangerous Situation

Raymond's hand, positioned horizontally in front of her, was clean, slender, and well-groomed, pleasing to the eye.

But beneath this beauty, it seemed as if a lurking wild beast was jumping on his fingertips, cold and somewhat dangerous. Selena instinctively took a step back, but his other hand reached out and rested against the wall behind her. Caught between a rock and a hard place, Selena nervously pressed against the wall, but it was useless to create distance between them. With one hand in front and the other behind, he had effectively blocked her path. Swallowing nervously, she dared not look at him. In a situation like this, women were naturally in a vulnerable position.

To outsiders, it appeared as though she was trapped in his arms. This kind of atmosphere clouded one's judgment, but Selena had to stay clear-headed because he was Raymond.

There could be absolutely no possibility between her and Raymond. Just then, her phone rang, dispelling the ambiguous atmosphere, and she inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief. When she picked up the call, she saw that it was from Lucas, and a hint of delight flashed in her eyes.

She had previously not appreciated Lucas taking the liberty to call her, but now, this call came at just the right time. Raymond clearly saw the name saved on her phone and pursed his lips. He lowered his gaze and saw her happily answering the call.

Even his body no longer seemed as rigid as before, as if he had been saved by this phone call. He slowly retracted his hand, listening to her say, "Promoted? Great, I got it. I'll be right back."

Lucas had indeed been promoted, and after much consideration, he decided to call her. If it weren't for Selena giving him face and deliberately delaying time in the lobby, he would never have had a chance for this promotion. He wanted to take her out for a meal, even though he knew she might not care.
