Chapter 395 Do You Still NeedTonight, Mr. Montague? "Letbe your companion!" Her voice was filled with excitement.
Raymond lowered his eyelashes, setting down the coffee in his hand, "Olivia, I'm not going to an auction." His implication was clear: he didn't need her as a companion.
Olivia's face turned pale. With things having reached this point, it was difficult to press the issue, so she sought to save face.
"I understand, is it the overseas project that's run into trouble and requires your personal attention?" Raymond nodded, turning on the computer beside him.
He sent a message to Selena.
"Tomorrow, accompanyon a trip abroad." Selena was at the hospital visiting Lucas when she received the message. Lucas was insisting on being discharged, so she was in the midst of handling his discharge procedures and taking him home.
"Are you sure you don't want to rest more in the hospital?" Lucas had suffered an accident, and it was all because of her.

"This is the remaining $150,000." "Keep it, Lucas." Lucas hesitated. He was indeed short on money and loved it. With this sum, he could improve his life and charm several women.
In the end, he accepted it.
Selena drove him to his remote home, where the lighting was dimmer than in the city center.
At the entrance of his home, a child with crutches was waiting - probably his sister.
After Lucas got out of the car, the child cover with crutches, and upon seeing his face, burst into tears. He picked her up to comfort her.
It was at this moment that Selena noticed Raymond's text message.
Accompany him abroad? She pursed her lips, then replied.
"Mr. Montague, I don't believe I'm your secretary." She still owed him eight times, but that didn't include accompanying him on other tasks.
Raymond's face darkened upon reading her message, the air around him turning frosty.
And Olivia was still waiting in front of him, sensing the sharpness in his eyes.
She quickly took the opportunity.
"Raymond, are you really not going to the auction? It's a grand one this time, and there might be something your grandma likes." "Let's go." "Can I cwith you?" "Hmm." His tone was indifferent, his irritation evident as he closed the chat window with Selena.
Olivia, having received the answer she wanted, quickly left.
Raymond dialed Selena's number; she was currently unloading Lucas's medicines from the car, all for external application. And in Lucas's arms, the little girl was still sobbing.
Seeing Raymond's call, Selena's back stiffened reflexively. After pressing the answer button, his casual voice cthrough. "Are you with your husband?" Selena could sense danger in that brief question and hurriedly denied it.

"Selena..." Raymond naturally heard him, chuckling lightly, "He's been discharged?" "Mr. Montague, I..." Before she could finish, the little girl's crying was heard again.
Lucas was still comforting her on the side, "Don't cry, see, I'm fine. Stop crying."
Selena immediately drove off, giving Lucas a nod, which counted as an greeting. She drove a distance away before asking him. "Will you needtonight, Mr. Montague?" Her surroundings were now quiet.
Raymond leaned back in his chair, silent.
Selena didn't dare to hang up the call.
"Selena, do you have children?" His tone was a bit perplexed and distant. "No." Raymond was referring to the child's crying earlier.
But the mention of children suddenly reminded him that he had never taken precautions with her.
"If you're worried I might get pregnant with your child, don't be. I always remember to take my pills."
Selena had misunderstood, thinking Raymond was worried she might get pregnant and then leverage the child. As soon as she finished speaking, he chuckled coldly. "You do know what's good for you."
