Chapter 2428 Wait for You to Start the Party
Eric proposed to redo Chance’s birthday party.Chance was elated when he heard this.The venue of the party was a large villa that Eric owned.Eric asked Chance to invite his friends and classmates. It did not matter how many people he invited.The first person Chance invited was Levi, and the second was Selena.The other invitations were sent out by Mitchell.The next day, Selena thought that she would wait for Eric’s message.Thus, she got up early in the morning to tidy up her things, did a stock count of the drinks in the warehouse, and tallied the accounts.She found that this month’s profit doubled that of last month’s.She also thought that she was a talented businesswoman.If she kept this up, she would soon be able to open another branch.At noon, Selena looked at her phone and went for a meal with her colleagues.She enjoyed this normal life.Her hellish old life was finally over.At 3:30 pm, Eric called.Selena picked it up.Eric instantly questioned her.“W
Chapter 2429 Not a Fool
Eric took the initiative to speak, so it was a good sign.He glanced at the people outside and curled his lips meaningfully to hide his indifference.When people saw Eric and Jayla talking and laughing, they were surprised and envious.Jayla was elated when she received such envious gazes.The gloom from the previous few days was swept away, and Jayla finally felt like she had made a comeback in upper-class society.Eric was talking to another person, so other people started to surround Jayla.“Ms. Jennings, Mr. Ferguson seems to be interested in you, huh?”“Yeah, Ms. Jennings. I heard that Mr. Ferguson helped solve your family’s problems?”“Ms. Jennings, when will we hear your marital news?”Everyone was flattering Jayla, which made her a little flustered.Suddenly, the sound of high heels came from not far away.“What’s all the fuss about?”Cindy came late and saw everyone surrounding and flattering Jayla.She glanced around with a demure smile. Her temperament was diffe
Chapter 2430 Oddball
Selena was not cautious or pretentious like the other rich young ladies.She always spoke faster than she could think.Eric thought to himself, ‘Selena is truly an oddball among the women I know. She’s so naive and stupid.’However, he did not say it out loud. If Selena could read his mind, she would probably splash a glass of wine on his face.Eric’s heart tightened, and he felt that it was better to focus on the bigger picture.He was patient and sincere as he advised her, “There are dresses upstairs. Go and change.”Not everyone could enjoy this kind of treatment.Eric was just afraid that others would look down on Selena. He was not looking down on her.If he had known that Selena was unprepared, he would have asked Mitchell to bring her dress shopping before coming over.On such an occasion, Selena’s dress was somewhat unacceptable.Selena frowned and looked at him with disgust.“I don’t wear other people’s clothes.”“Nobody wore them before.”The big brand names sent
Chapter 2431 Distraught
Cindy froze and trembled slightly.Eric’s words were cold and ruthless, not giving Cindy any leeway.If they watched the surveillance footage, it would only prove Selena’s innocence.Then why would Cindy be mad?What made Cindy angry was that Selena suddenly pretended to be aggrieved. Selena even took the initiative to approach Eric and complained about her grievances.More importantly, Eric actually sided with Selena and warned Cindy.His attitude was like having a bucket of cold water poured over her head, sobering her up in an instant.Cindy also felt disgraced.Her silence meant that she was wrong. Eric looked away as if he did not want to take another look at Cindy.Eric stared at Selena with complicated eyes.He could tell that Selena was acting earlier just to piss Cindy off on purpose.Eric thought that he would never figure out what Selena was thinking.Although Selena used him, he was not angry at her.He glanced at the expressive Selena and guessed that she was
Chapter 2432 Who Will Complain?
Selena restrained her smile and looked at the fat little boy who was not much older than Chance.She had a bad impression of the boy.It turned out that not all children were innocent and cute.Some children were naively vicious and were easily forgiven under the guise of innocence.The little boy smiled and said unscrupulously, “Haven’t you heard that all stepmothers are evil? She treats you well on the surface, but when she gets married to your father, she will abuse you and abandon you…”Chance’s smile gradually stiffened and faded.He lowered his eyes and looked at Levi with a smile.“Shall we take Auntie to play in the room?”Levi nodded.Chance held Selena’s hand. “Shall we go?”Selena smiled.The little boy was angry because he was ignored.“How can you be so rude? We are here to celebrate your birthday, but you left us to play with a servant! I’ll tell your father so that he’ll teach you a lesson!”Selena could not stand it anymore.She did not want to pick a figh
Chapter 2433 Fat B*tch
The rich housewife lowered her head, touched her son’s head, and muttered softly, “Who the hell do you think you are that you can flaunt your power here? No matter what, you have no say in this!”After that, she took her son to play elsewhere.She turned around and took two steps out when a cigarette butt gently fell from the balcony on the second floor of the villa and landed in front of the rich housewife.Everyone looked up in surprise and saw Eric, Keith, and a fat man standing on the balcony.The fat man’s face was pale as he glanced at Eric in a panic. Then, he cast a resentful glance at the rich housewife below.The rich housewife’s face turned pale in an instant. She stood there stiffly, dumbfounded.She talked about other people behind their backs and did not expect them to be behind her.It was such a coincidence that they saw her.Who would have thought?Selena looked over in surprise. When she saw Eric, she excitedly pulled Chance over and shouted, “Hey, Eric! Don’
Chapter 2434 Stop Her From Going to the Rescue
The weather was nice, and the air was refreshing.Eric stood there with a faint smile on his face.He clearly disregarded Keith’s comment.Swearing at people showed that Selena was vulgar. Her hot temper and frankness showed that she was stupid. Being beautiful and honest showed that she had no ability to protect herself.Which one of those traits suited Eric?Eric saw how wretched a woman who could not even protect herself was.If he had not helped her, Selena might still be stuck in that horrendous marriage. She might have also become a murderer if she was pushed over the edge.Eric was not a saint, so he did not have much sympathy for her.He was just a little curious when he saw that Selena was gradually revealing her true self.Selena had made herself appear cowardly because of her marriage.Seeing that Eric did not care, Keith said, “Also, those kids only said those words because they heard them from their parents. What do they know? You can’t make people think that you
Chapter 2435 Trap
Selena’s words made Eric pause slightly, but he did not glance at her.Suddenly, there was another splash in the pool.Eric frowned and finally let go of Selena.However, before he could look at her, Selena ran away.Selena seemed to have misunderstood him.Eric suddenly felt a little anxious.However, he steadied his emotions, lifted his feet, and went downstairs.“Young Master Chance fell into the pool—”Someone shouted and attracted the attention of many people.Everyone who was talking inside the villa went out to the yard.When Eric went out, he saw Cindy holding Chance with difficulty, climbing out of the swimming pool.Both of them were wet and shivering from the cold.Cindy looked wretched with her hair dripping with water and her makeup running. However, she could not care less.When Eric walked over, he happened to see Cindy climbing out of the pool.Cindy made eye contact with Selena, who was a step late in saving Chance.Cindy’s gaze was very calm and even a
