Reclaiming Her Heart
Chapter 669 How Do Women React When They Are Jealous?

In the car, Raymond glanced at the pile of documents on the floor and picked them up one by one.

Then he pulled out his phone and searched: "What are the signs of a jealous woman?"

"My secretary threw documents at my face; should I fire her?"

"What should I do if my secretary likes to flirt with various men?"

Only the first search had an answer, but an idiot clearly wrote it. Raymond, clueless about women, took it as gospel.

"Jealousy? It's just crying, throwing a tantrum, and buying a gift to make up for it."

Raymond turned off his phone and immediately applied this to Selena.

"So she really was jealous?"

The two hours he spent acting with that woman seemed worth it; the effect was pretty good.

He didn't touch her. He'd heard she had slept with almost all the high-level execs she worked with. She was still charming but also very cunning. Raymond went into the lounge and told her he wasn't interested, and she gave up right away.

Then he asked her to play along, and she did perfectly. She sat alone on the bed and screamed until her voice became hoarse.

She probably already guessed his relationship with Selena.

When they came out, the woman even gave Selena an ambiguous look.

But Selena didn't notice.

Raymond organized the documents and called John to drive.

As John hit the gas, Raymond asked, "Do you think Penny might like me?"

Didn't she get divorced? For whom did she get divorced?

Since they had already been together, she could only have divorced because of him.

Was his influence that great?

Raymond smirked as he leaned back.

"Even though she was married and divorced, I can't marry her into the family, but keeping her as a lover is still possible."

John stayed silent; he really couldn't see that Selena liked Raymond.

John cautiously said, "Mr. Montague, this might need more careful observation."

Raymond squinted and lowered his eyes.

His voice dropped a bit.

"If she doesn't like me, I'll be angry."

They had already been intimate, though he didn't remember much; he was sure he hadn't slept with anyone else.

John didn't know how to respond, so he just gripped the steering wheel in silence.

After leaving, Selena still felt a fire burning inside her.

Thinking about Raymond being able to sleep with someone else while socializing made her feel like vomiting.

Her anger also had a tinge of bitterness.

When Selena returned to the office, she drank bitter coffee to calm down. Then Austin walked in.

"Penny, my movie premieres tomorrow, and the pre-sale box office has already hit over a hundred million dollars. If all goes well, the final box office should be at least two billion." Austin couldn't wait to share the news with Selena.

Selena sighed in relief. She had invested half the money in this movie, so a big return meant more funds for future projects. "Great job, Austin," Selena said.

Austin felt a bit shy, his fingers fidgeting.

"Can I invite you to the first screening tonight? It's not the premiere, but still," Austin asked.

Selena had missed the premiere because she was at the hospital with Raymond, so she had declined.

Since Austin was the first artist in her company, she couldn't keep saying no.

"Sure, what time?" Selena asked.

"Seven o'clock! I'll wait for you here after work," Austin replied.

Selena checked the time; it was still early, and she needed to see Carol.

"I have to go out this afternoon. You go ahead and get busy. I'll buy the tickets and send you the theater location later."

Austin's eyes lit up, and he smiled. "Okay."

After agreeing with Austin, Selena headed to Silver Bay Film Academy.

She knew Carol's schedule and waited outside her last class before lunch.

Because of her striking appearance, several male students asked for her contact info, which she politely declined.

She looked fresh and radiant, almost glowing in the sunlight.

Even the students in the classroom kept glancing at her.

After turning down three guys, the bell finally rang.

Carol was the last to leave and hesitated when she saw Selena.

Selena waved and walked up. "Carol."

Carol's lips moved a bit; then she found a chair nearby.

"Ms. Cooper, please sit here. Want some water? I'll go get some."

She could only afford bottled water and felt a bit uneasy.

"Carol, no need. I'm here to talk about the script."

"The script... I've revised it. See if you're satisfied..."

Carol hesitated as she handed over her revised script.

Selena took one look and knew Carol hadn't put her heart into it.
