Selena did not stay smug for long after eating the barbecue.After they entered the bedroom, Eric was suddenly interrupted by an urgent call.When he came back after the phone call, Selena was already curled up on the bed due to a stomach ache. She dared not move.Eric’s complexion changed, and he took a deep breath.Selena slowly stretched out her hand and looked at him with disappointment.“Quick, help me! What are you still doing?”Eric immediately called the hospital, then he bent down to pick her up and ran outside.As soon as he went out, he saw the driver had just sent Chance home.Chance watched in shock as Eric rushed into the car with Selena.“Aunt Selena, what’s wrong with you?”Eric was anxious and flustered, but he did not forget to use this opportunity to teach his son a lesson.“This is the consequence of eating junk food!”Selena was speechless as she thought, ‘Damn this b*stard!’However, she was not in the mood to scold him now.She was sure that she ate
It was the end of the month.Julie called Selena.“Ms. Nelson, I would like to invite you to the movie premiere. After all, you participated in this film, and everyone must be looking forward to seeing you. But I respect your decision either way.”Selena paused. She had never participated in such an event, so she was a little uneasy.Just as she was about to reject Julie’s invitation, Julie happily added, “By the way, the male and female lead will also join. Don’t you like the male lead, Harvey Sage? I can arrange for you to take a photo with him. He’s an actor from Falcon Entertainment. If you don’t want to walk on the red carpet, you can attend the banquet after the screening. We hired a renowned chef, and his cooking is superb.”Julie introduced the event excitedly, and Selena responded with a smile.“Okay, I’ll go, just for Harvey.”Anyway, Selena had nothing to do.Moreover, with Julie and Nicole there, Selena felt that nothing out of the ordinary would happen.Selena hun
Selena kept promoting her bar, and everyone nodded repeatedly.Finally, Selena quietly went to tell Harvey, “If you come, I’ll give you a 50% discount!”Harvey was polite and asked for her business card. “I must go some time, then.”The two looked at each other and smiled.None of them noticed the commotion at the door.Unexpectedly, Eric came.Thus, there was a big commotion.The organizer and crew went up to greet Eric.Julie was on the phone with Kai at that moment. She inadvertently glanced at Eric and finally looked at Selena meaningfully before she turned away.She smiled and continued to speak with her head down.“Alright, I’ll go home when the event is over. There’s about to be some drama, so I have to go!”As soon as Eric came in, his gaze fell on the two people who were still talking.His eyes seemed to be frozen.Harvey spotted Eric while he was talking to Selena. He was hesitating about whether to go over to say hello when he suddenly remembered that Selena was
Larry Yeager had exhausted all means. At this moment, he could only make use of the public opinion to force Eric to compromise. That was why he went all out today.Eric was disgusted by this.Eric’s face became gloomy and cold.However, he did not hesitate and strode right into the office.Mitchell had instructed the bodyguards to wait for Eric at the entrance.As soon as Eric came, the bodyguards automatically split into two teams and flanked Eric’s side.All of them went into the president’s exclusive elevator.However, Larry did not let him go so easily.They were waiting for Eric to show up.“Mr. Ferguson is here! Mr. Ferguson is here…”“Mr. Ferguson, please have mercy on me. I don’t know how I offended you in the past. Why did you use such a ruthless method to lock up our funds with that project? We’re diligent taxpayers and have contributed to the city. You can’t do that to us…”Larry should not be discharged from the hospital as he was still lying on a stretcher. He w
The image Cindy had maintained for a long time finally collapsed.As soon as Eric turned around, Cindy became flustered. She took a few steps forward and said, “Eric, did you deny that we have ever dated because you only love Nicole?”Eric paused slightly.Mitchell’s face changed. He had a bad premonition about this.Eric’s side profile was sharp and angular. He looked indifferent and unapproachable.Cindy’s focus suddenly shifted from business to feelings.The tabloid reporters suddenly found a new purpose.Eric was silent for a few seconds, said two words, and left immediately after.After hearing these two words, Mitchell changed his expression before he followed Eric out.Eric said, “Of course.”Of course, Eric only loved Nicole.Others would not think much about it and might even praise him for being so affectionate.However, Mitchell was the only one who knew that Eric was with Selena. Eric was obviously in love with Selena, but he still did not realize it.If Selena
Selena looked at it and accepted it without burden.“Thank you. I thought you bought it specially for Valentine’s Day. Thank goodness, it isn’t that.”Eric paused slightly before he turned around to look back at her.He scrutinized her with gloomy eyes.“Why?”Selena blinked her eyes and said frankly.“Because we’re not a couple!”Valentine’s Day was for couples.Since they were not a couple, it would be ridiculous to celebrate Valentine’s Day.Thus, Selena breathed a sigh of relief at Eric’s behavior.It was just a bouquet of cheap roses, so Selena had no trouble accepting it.Eric’s heart suddenly clenched as a thin thread strangled his body. Those inexplicably sharp words made his heart ache.For some reason, Eric found it hard to breathe.He pursed his lips, and his eyes flickered.He was about to say something when Selena suddenly stepped forward and hugged him while holding the flowers.“But thanks for taking me in when I was at my loneliest. Although we’re not a c
Since it was an unfamiliar number, Selena rejected the call.However, the caller persisted.Finally, Selena picked it up in frustration. “Who’s calling?”“It’s me. Shall we meet?”The other party was arrogant. It was a female voice.Selena paused and recognized the voice, but she did not admit it.“Oh, who are you? Now that my net worth has increased, I won’t just meet anyone. I don’t even know your name.”The other party was silent for more than ten seconds before reluctantly speaking.“It’s me, Cindy Yeager. Let’s meet up, Ms. Nelson. I have a favor to ask of you.”Selena got up from the bed, smiled, and stood on the balcony, looking at the lush green scenery outside. She was in a good mood.“I don’t think that’s necessary. I heard from Eric that your family is dangerous and that you might harm me when cornered, so he told me to stay away from you.”Cindy’s breathing was a little labored because she was pissed off.“He’s not a good guy. Why didn’t he just... You don’t hav
Selena sat there and showed off her relationship with Eric’s ex-marriage partner.It was ridiculous.Under the scorching midsummer sun, Selena was covered in a cold sweat.Her emotions fluctuated more violently than before when she was abused by Derek Norton.Her heart was beating with difficulty.Selena could not tell what it felt like. She just felt a twitching pain that made her face pale.Cindy gave Selena enough time to settle down or torment her.Seeing Selena’s reaction, Cindy showed a confident smile.Finally, Cindy spoke.“This was recorded yesterday. Everyone present heard it. I wanted to post it online, but I thought about your feelings and didn’t want to hurt innocent people. So, I came to you personally.”Selena’s dark eyes finally moved slightly and turned to Cindy’s face.She remained silent and waited for Cindy to continue speaking.Cindy smiled kindly.“I know you’re in love with him. Who wouldn’t like him? I liked him back then because of his family backg
