บท 23: GETTING HER TO LOVE ME

Sebastian burst through the front door of his apartment, rainwater dripping from his hair and clothes. He shook his head, sending droplets flying.

Raymond looked up from the sofa, glass of wine in hand, and raised an eyebrow. "You sent for me," he said, setting the glass on the table.

Sebastian trudged into the room, his soaked shoes squelching on the floor.

Raymond's gaze swept over his drenched appearance. "You're soaked. Didn't you go out with your car?" he asked.

"How was your date?" he added, his brows shot up.

Sebastian held up a hand, pausing the barrage of questions. "Slow down with the questions, Raymond."

He peeled off his drenched black coat, revealing a equally soaked dress shirt underneath.

He walked to his room and came out with a towel, wrapping it around his shoulders.

"Orchid's ex is back, and she still loves him," he said, his jaw clenched as he dried himself.
