Reclaiming Her Heart -
Chapter 1029 Is This What Being in Love?
Raymond was hanging out at Manston Manor, waiting for Selena. She'd promised to come over for dinner tonight, and he was pretty excited about it.
He'd even taken an early shift and told the kitchen to start prepping while he was still at work.
When he got home, he plopped down on the couch, saw some gorgeous flowers outside, and couldn't resist posting a pic.
Right after posting, he felt a bit silly and thought about deleting it. But then he saw a few comments and decided to leave it up.
Is this what being in love feels like? Seeing something beautiful and instantly thinking of her.
He wished she was there with him. It was a weird but nice feeling.
He pulled out his laptop and started working while waiting. But by 7 PM, Selena still hadn't shown up or called.
Selena had a crazy busy day. She'd worked overnight and was back at the office by 5 AM, handling business.
Even though the new employees were getting the hang of things, the company was still new, and taking on a chunk of All Star Entertainment's business had everyone working overtime. Selena was on top of every detail, from meetings to project execution.
By evening, she was wiped out. Her brain was foggy, totally consumed by work.
She kept pushing through the documents and handed the finished ones to Ann when she came in.
"Ann, make sure the agents Ronald picked are put to work. He can't do everything alone," Selena said.
Ronald was a workaholic too, practically living at the office. Selena worried about his health and had told him multiple times to go home and rest.
But Ronald was in the zone. The agents he'd promoted were doing great and could handle actors on their own now.
"Ms. Fair, I've already talked to him. But with Sophia's shoot just wrapped up and our new drama about to air, he doesn't want to slack off. He's probably hoping this drama will push Sophia to A-list status," Ann replied. Selena didn't say much. All she could do was keep improving salaries and benefits for everyone.
She'd made it clear that in this company, they valued ability over seniority or connections.
So, after announcing a year-end bonus for those working overtime, the employees were even more motivated.
The company's efficiency had shot up, barely avoiding chaos from the new business, but Selena was still swamped.
It wasn't until 8 PM that Selena handed the last document to Ann and crashed on her desk.
"Ms. Fair, are you okay?" Ann asked.
Selena, exhausted, mumbled, "Distribute the documents and tell Ronald to go home and rest. If he can't, set up a rest area in his office."
"Okay, I'll talk to Ronald now. Ms. Fair, you need to take care of yourself too," Ann replied.
But Selena was already out cold, her mind a mess. She didn't even stir when Raymond called.
Raymond had saved Ann's number, so when Selena didn't pick up, he called Ann.
"Ms. Fair is still working overtime," Ann said.
Raymond didn't say anything and just hung up.
Ann stared at her phone, feeling like Raymond might be a bit ticked off.
