Selena was wearing a denim skirt and shirt that were covered with dust in the afternoon.Although she had touched up her makeup before going to Chance’s school, everyone judged her based on her outfit. No matter how good-looking Selena was, she did not attract too much attention.She could leave after listening to the teacher for a while.Chance performed very well in school. He was also too mature and quiet.Thus, the teacher was not worried about Chance’s academic performance, but his mental health.When Chance first transferred to their school, he did not like to talk. He was still the same.In short, Chance’s family did not pay enough attention to him.Selena nodded after listening to the teacher and left with Chance.Some problems could not be solved by an outsider, but Selena would convey the teacher’s words to Eric.Chance ran over happily when he saw Selena.Selena reached out and took his school bag while Chance happily went over to hold her hand.“Aunt Selena, it’l
Selena interrupted Eric with a smile. “I think you’re too impulsive.”However, Eric got down on one knee in front of Selena and solemnly took out a ring from his pocket.That ring was the one that inexplicably appeared on her ring finger and she had returned.Selena’s expression was unbearably tense.She could barely maintain the smile on her face.Her heart cooled down a little, but Eric’s blood was boiling from head to toe.Eric’s emotions were a little turbulent. His expression fluctuated greatly, and he looked up at her with bright eyes.At this moment, Selena was looking down on him.With their position suddenly reversed, Selena was in a trance for a moment.Was Eric serious?However, even if Eric was serious, he did not discuss it with her.Selena felt as if she had fallen into a deep, bottomless pool without any ripples.She should be excited. She should be covering her mouth and crying in excitement just to fit the occasion, but she did not.Selena was so calm that
It turned out that their hearts had grown apart since then.Selena could get herself out of their relationship easily, but Eric fell deeper in love with her.Eric parked the car, got out, and opened the door for Selena.Selena let Chance get into the car first. Then, she also sat in the back.The car was dead silent.No one spoke.Eric seemed to be waiting for his sentence every minute of their silence.He felt weak.His palms were sweaty, but no one noticed except him.Chance also seemed to feel the solemnity and tension between the adults. He looked at Selena for a while, and then at Eric.He dared not speak either.Selena just stared blankly at the passing scenery outside the window.The glow in the distant sky gradually dimmed, like a thin layer of rouge that was about to fade.No one spoke the entire journey home.Back at the villa, Chance returned to his room obediently.Selena also got out of the car.Eric was in the car. He looked at her back and took out a pack
“Oh, Ms. Nelson just asked us to clean up the guest room.”The servant replied honestly and did not dare to ask if Eric and Selena had quarreled.Eric took a deep breath and nodded.The servant went downstairs.Then, Eric went to the door of the guest room.Several guest rooms in the house were vacant, but Selena said that the guest room at the end of the corridor had the best view. She wanted to move into that room, but Eric stopped her.Sure enough, the door of the room was tightly locked.Eric walked over and reached out to knock on the door, but he did not know what to say.He should have calmed each other down.However, he vaguely felt that if he calmed down and did not do anything about it, this matter would be brushed off. Then, he would never have a chance to bring it up again.Eric took a deep breath and knocked on the door anyway.Selena quickly came over to open the door and was not surprised to see it was him.“What do you want?”“Let’s talk.”“I thought we ta
The servant said, “Ms. Nelson said she’s going to tidy up the new bar this morning.”Eric frowned slightly.The new bar?When did Selena find it?Eric was not aware of it.He had mixed feelings about this.Eric nodded as if nothing had happened and walked out.Sitting in the car, he took out his phone.After calling two or three times, Selena answered the phone with a bit of impatience.However, Eric’s nervous heart was relieved. At least Selena did not block his number!“Where’s your new bar?”“......”Selena told him the address and hung up the phone.She did not even have time to answer the phone just now because her hands were very dirty, but Eric persistently called just to ask about this.Selena put down her phone speechlessly and went to work with Chaz.Eric went to the new bar.He recognized the place from the outside. He had been here before with some friends for a change of taste.However, the owner of this store and his whole family moved abroad because of b
Mitchell saw the situation and coughed.“I thought you don’t believe in marriage? If you envy other people’s weddings, you should find someone and get married soon!”“I have a boyfriend, but I don’t want to get married!”The beautiful assistant smiled happily. “Only a fool will get married. I want to be free for the rest of my life! If I get bored, I’ll get a new boyfriend!”Mitchell was speechless.Selena could not help but give her a thumbs up. “That’s right!”Eric’s face turned dark with anger. He glanced coldly at the unfamiliar female assistant.When was she recruited?Her worldview was skewed, and Selena happened to run into her.Eric snorted coldly, looked back at Mitchell, and deliberately said loudly, “Did you not notify the employees of the company’s new regulations?”Mitchell looked over blankly. “What new regulations?”“Employees who get married will get an extra 10% bonus every year-end.”Everyone was shocked and looked over in surprise and joy.Mitchell was e
Lara stood there pitifully. Although she was old, she took care of herself well for many years, so she was still beautiful.After seeing Lara crying like this, everyone took pity on Lara.Some reporters could not help but ask, “Ms. Nelson, may I ask if what Lara said is true?”“Did you instruct Mr. Ferguson to blacklist Lara?”“What is the relationship between you and Mr. Ferguson? Did you fool the netizens when you said you wouldn’t dare to dream of Mr. Ferguson?”“Why are you in Ferguson Corporation for no reason?”“Are you aware of the inside story between Mr. Ferguson and Ms. Caldwell’s relationship back then? Can you share it with us?”......Selena’s heart trembled.She had encountered cyber violence before. When someone spread the news of her relationship with Eric back then, the criticisms on the internet almost drowned her.However, she survived.There was still a difference between online and real life.It was more realistic and terrifying.Selena could not show
Eric stepped forward unfazed, took Selena’s hand, and walked toward the door.Under the camera flashes, Eric stood there, looking upright and stern. His handsome facial features permeated an indifferent chill.Eric exuded a strong and intimidating vibe standing there.When everyone saw this, they did not dare to offend him like how they bombarded Selena just now even though they were curious.Lara’s expression also changed slightly because she was a little shocked that Eric dared to hold Selena’s hand so openly.This was an acknowledgment of the illicit relationship between Eric and Selena.How could Eric actually marry a divorcee with no money, power, or background?Even if Eric was playing with Selena, he could not admit it in public.Lara clenched her fists slightly and suddenly panicked for a moment.She had a feeling that something bad was about to happen.Lara paused, struggling to speak.“Mr. Ferguson, I hope you can have mercy on me. Ms. Nelson and I just had a misun
