“No,” Sebastian Brenand replied.
He never once looked up at Selena Underwood throughout the entire conversation.
She felt even more confused. “Tell me why.”
“It’s because I’m married. There’s only room for one woman in my heart,” he answered.
“Is she pretty?”
“Of course. She’s a hundred times prettier than you,” he said curtly.
“I don’t believe that,” she scoffed. She had never seen a woman who was prettier than her.
Even though she had never met Sebastian’s wife, she envied her for having a husband like him.
“I don’t care if you believe me or not. If you don’t leave, I’m calling security and that won’t look good for you,” he threatened, wanting to end this conversation once and for all.
Selena didn’t dare linger any longer after hearing that.
She took a long inhale before directly turning around to leave.
He began focusing on his work with a blank expression, pushing away any thoughts of what happened earlier from his mind.
Although the woman was attractive, nobody could take him away from Rachel Wood.
He only loved her, so no one else could compare.
Beep, beep, beep—
His phone began to ring just then, his gaze softening when he saw Rachel calling. He answered without hesitation.
“What is it, Honey? Do you miss me?”
“Yeah, I miss you," she replied. "What time are you coming home today?”
“Probably around five o’clock. I’ll get home earlier to spend time with you.”
