Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 1046 Can She Appease Raymond This Time?

Tessa chuckled to herself; she'd already seen the news blowing up online. Selena was probably still stuck at the hospital, and by the time she made it here, it'd be well past eight. Plus, Tessa had someone ready to handle Selena here.

Tessa smirked, knowing there was no need to rush. After that, she started mingling with the crowd.

Everyone was buzzing about how hot Tessa's boyfriend was and how good-looking her brother was.

Tessa sipped her wine, gliding through the party like a pro.

Raymond was just hanging out in the corner. People who wanted to say hi could feel the intense vibe around him and quickly steered clear.

Paul, the man of the hour, was super busy. Even though he usually wasn't much of a talker, he had to make small talk at the party.

Paul looked annoyed but kept a faint smile plastered on his face.

When Paul spotted Raymond, he felt a wave of relief and made a beeline for him.

Raymond was sulking in the corner, staring off into the distance.

Paul gave him a nudge, "Where's Selena? Haven't seen her around."

Raymond had gone public with his relationship on Facebook, so he should've brought Selena to an event like this. It was a good chance for everyone to meet her. Raymond wasn't in the mood to socialize, worried everyone would ask why Selena wasn't there.
