Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 426 Annoyance

Selena was stunned, not understanding Raymond's intention.

She returned to Rose Garden, gathered her favorite painting tools, and headed straight for the hotel.

Upon arrival, she saw an oil painting clamped on an easel in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows.

Selena recognized it immediately it was her teacher's work.

"Mr. Montague?"

She heard the sound of water from the bathroom, and shortly after, Raymond emerged, casually drying his hair with a towel. "Alex gave me an oil painting, said Mr. Butler ran off halfway through it. Can you finish it?" he asked.

Selena glanced at the painting-indeed, it was.

She nodded and looked up calmly.

"How much are you offering for the work?"

Her voice was emotionless.

It seemed as though if Raymond didn't offer money, Selena would leave right then and there.

Raymond watched her, carelessly tossing aside the towel in his hand as he approached Selena.
