Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 719 It Turned Out to Be Raymond Accompanying Her

After plopping down, she checked the time. It was 7:20, and Raymond was probably gonna show up in like ten minutes.

The lighting on this floor was kinda dim. Selena turned her head to peep at the night view outside the window, and her mind started to wander. This was shaping up to be the best Christmas she'd had in years.

She never thought Raymond would be the one keeping her company.

The feeling was pretty awesome.

She had no clue how much time had passed when she pulled out her phone to check the time.

It was 8:00, and Raymond was still a no-show.

A waiter had already come over and asked if she wanted to start eating.

She smiled, "Nah, someone hasn't shown up yet."

The waiter had no choice but to back off.

By 9:00, Selena was getting kinda hungry and frowned a bit. Raymond didn't seem like the type to be late.

She couldn't help but dial his number, and it was Raymond himself who picked up. "Penny, what's up?"

His tone had a hint of gentleness, making Selena doubt whether he had forgotten about this.
