“No, thanks. My driver will pick me up.”Taylor smiled.She could hear that Eric was just asking out of politeness. He did not sincerely want to give her a ride home, so she did not push it.Eric nodded slightly.He gave off a cold, stern, and gloomy vibe that made people stay away from him.However, Taylor clearly saw Eric smiling gently at the woman beside him at the auction last time.It was not an illusion.Taylor remembered what her father told her. She was not suitable for business. Now that her father was still around, he could still support her for a while.However, if he dies in the future, Taylor would not be able to control CK Corporation.Thus, Taylor needed a confidant. To be precise, she needed a husband who could help her in her career.Her husband would have to support CK Corporation so that no one would dare to covet it.Eric was the best choice.Taylor did not covet his feelings. She did not care how many women Eric had.She just felt that he was a good c
“Tell CK Corporation that if it doesn’t affect Ms. Caldwell, we can use the second plan.”Eric took his anger out on the netizens.Since he did not want to be taken advantage of, he might as well start making money from them.Mitchell nodded. “Yes, sir.”Eric’s decision was based on the company’s overall situation. There was nothing to criticize about it.In the afternoon, the hot topic gradually lost its popularity.Everyone’s interest in Eric’s personal affairs gradually died down.However, just when everyone calmed down, Ferguson Corporation and CK Corporation jointly launched the focus of their cooperation.For a while, everyone was talking about Eric and Taylor again.Not only that, some people even made up some romantic short stories about them. Some people also photoshopped their wedding pictures.However, neither party responded to the relationship.However, the speculation online was in full swing.Not only that, the stock prices of Ferguson Corporation and CK Corp
Chaz said, “Fruits are very expensive now.”If Eric was a scumbag, Chaz did not even want to give Eric a fruit platter.Selena was speechless.Eric went into the private room. No one followed him over for a long time.He sat there, and his face turned darker as time passed.When he heard what Selena said, Eric kept silent and then reflected on himself.Did he do something wrong?Everyone was speculating about his relationship with Taylor, but he did not respond.Did Selena really trust him?Or did she not care about him?Eric’s mind was a mess from the time he came to the bar until now.It was like a tangled ball of threads.Eric felt anxious.Why was Selena still not here?Eric dialed Selena’s number, but no one answered.The next second, someone knocked on the door and came in.Chaz held a fruit platter and wine while he smiled perfunctorily.“My boss asked me to send these up. Mr. Ferguson, you can tell me if you need anything.”“Where is she? Ask her to come up.”
Keith looked at the door strangely and thought about it for a few seconds.Suddenly, he had an epiphany.Perhaps it was not as Selena said. Eric and Selena probably had an unusual relationship.Earlier that day, Eric and Taylor’s scandal was all over the place.Any woman would not be able to stand it.So, was Selena throwing a tantrum just now?Eric went downstairs and watched as Selena leisurely swayed to the rhythm of the music. She had a smile on her face and was interacting with the people on stage from time to time.Selena looked to be in a good mood.Eric gulped. He was indescribably irritated and frustrated.Immediately, he seemed to have lost his mind as he dragged her out without caring that others were watching them.Eric dragged Selena to the door.Selena’s resistance was futile. Eric would not listen to anything she said.She was speechless.As soon as they went out, Eric relaxed his grip, and Selena took the opportunity to shrug off his hand.She was afraid t
Eric looked at Selena quietly for more than ten seconds.His face was extremely tense and glum.Eric said in a low voice, “What do you think?”Selena paused and raised her eyebrows.“Alright, I understand. From now on, let’s delete each other’s contact information. I won’t look for you again, and you shouldn’t look for me either. We can just treat each other as strangers.”Selena rationally arranged the plan for their future, just like when they were not together back then.Eric’s face and eyes darkened.His emotions surged violently, but he suppressed them. They were like currents in the deep and boundless sea.A gust of wind could cause huge waves.“No.”His voice was hoarse. He felt as if his throat had been ground by coarse sand, so much so that it hurt to speak.“What?”“I have nothing to do with her, let alone marry her. I came here to explain it to you.”Eric looked at Selena, but there was no emotion or excitement on her face.Selena was way too calm.Eric was a
Chance thought about it. As a member of the family, he felt like he should do something for the family.Thus, he turned around and went downstairs, asking the driver to take him to Selena’s bar.Chance wanted to pick Aunt Selena up personally.In the bar, Selena originally planned to stay until closing time.However, her biological clock had been irregular. She felt a little sleepy before midnight.Chaz asked her to go up to take a nap since there was nothing to do at this time.Just as Selena was about to go up, she heard Chaz changing his tune.“Don’t go upstairs. Someone came to pick you up.”Selena subconsciously looked back.Chance happily waved at her.Selena’s heart softened. She smiled, and her sleepiness disappeared.“How did you get here? Is your class over?”Chance nodded. “Daddy was afraid that it would be unsafe for you to go back alone at night, so he asked me to get the driver to pick you up. I just tagged along. Aunt Selena, shall we go home?”He looked up
The outside wind brought in a trace of heat. The agarwood scent in the car dispersed a little.The car was stable and comfortable.The man inside was on the phone, revealing his sharp side profile.No one noticed that in the side lane just one car away, there was a car to the left of the black Bentley.A pair of hateful and bloodshot eyes stared in the direction of the black Bentley.The woman took her phone and dialed a number.“Mr. Sloan, the time has come. Where are your people?”There was a buzz from the phone. Soon, a gentle and clear voice sounded.“Ms. Yeager, I arranged a getaway car for you. It’s the third red car behind your car. When you are done, get in the car while no one notices you. The driver will take you to where you’re supposed to go.”Cindy subconsciously looked in the back mirror when she heard this.Sure enough, the third car behind hers was a red car.She let out a slow sigh of relief.“Okay.”Cindy hung up the phone contentedly.She wanted to go a
Eric was talking when a police officer suddenly ran in.The officer looked inexplicably excited.“Deputy Chief, a good Samaritan noticed that something was off with Cindy Yeager, so he picked her up and sent her straight to our police station. We don’t need to use any effort to look for her.”The deputy chief was stunned, and his spirits lifted.“Where is she?”“Outside. Our colleagues have brought her here…”As he said that, Cindy was restrained and cuffed by two other officers.Cindy’s mind was muddled, but she still knew where she was.She struggled with all her might.“Let go of me! Why are you arresting me?”She yelled but to no avail.Cindy felt aggrieved. She thought that God was really unfair!She still got caught.What was going on?Was it that driver?Or was it Clayton?What part of her plan went wrong?Cindy’s mind was a mess at this moment.However, she knew that she could just refuse to admit it. Yes, she would just say that it was an ordinary accident...
