Afraid of attracting the servant’s attention, Mitchell and Easton left after a short while.In Eric’s room, Selena and Chance looked at each other.Chance was happy and acted like a good host.“Auntie, don’t worry. When Daddy wakes up, I’ll explain to him and ask him to thank you. Daddy is rich! You can get him to share some of his money with you.”Selena could not help but smile. She pinched Chance’s little face, which was soft and bouncy.“Why would your dad share his money with me? At most, he would just give me a smidge of alms.”Chance frowned slightly, but soon, he looked at her with a smile.“If he doesn’t share with you, I will!”“You’re a good boy.”Selena casually smiled and walked around the room to check it out.There were all kinds of wine on display in the expensive wine cabinet, some of which she could not name because her bar could not afford to buy such expensive wine.They were astoundingly expensive!There were also porcelain vases randomly placed around
Selena recovered after resting for a while. That bit of wine was really nothing to her.It was almost evening.From the balcony, Selena could see a servant outside watering the garden while the other was picking vegetables.The sun was setting.The orange hue enveloped the entire villa and created such a tranquil and beautiful picture.Usually, at this hour, the bar was starting to get lively.Selena was not there, so she was worried about the bar.However, since she agreed to Mitchell’s request, she could not just leave like this.Selena looked back at the pale man on the bed speechlessly. His eyes were tightly closed, and he did not move at all.This was the first time Selena saw him in such a vulnerable state.She thought, ‘Hah! You said you never sleep in. Look how long you’ve been sleeping now!’Selena pursed her lips and thought that Eric was really pitiful.The Cantonese food that the servants made was decent. Selena was a picky eater, but she could not find any faul
Eric closed his eyes as if he was suppressing his emotions.What an earth-shattering change!Chance knelt beside Eric as if he had done something wrong and carefully picked up the potato chips, placing them into the bag. Chance did not dare to look at his father’s expression.Finally, when he was done picking up the mess, Chance cautiously said, “Daddy, are you feeling better?”The soft and childish voice in Eric’s ear brought Eric out of his thoughts.His eyes were deep and dark as he glanced at Chance.“What’s going on?”Chance thought that Eric was referring to Selena’s appearance, so he quickly explained, “Uncle Mitchell asked Aunt Selena to come and take care of you because he suspected that someone deliberately caused the accident. Uncle Mitchell concealed the fact that you were injured for fear of causing conflicts and panic in the company. Aunt Selena has been taking care of you here for the past few days. She even gave up her job! Aunt Selena is such a kind person!”Ch
Mitchell took a deep breath, paused, and said, “Mr. Ferguson, the person who stabbed you used to be a construction worker that worked on the Yeager family’s project. I suspect that Larry Yeager was reluctant to give up on this project, so he placed his own people here. This person has a criminal record, no family members, and has a clean bank account with no abnormal transactions.”This was what made Mitchell feel so helpless.There was no monetary exchange, which meant that there was no evidence to prove the relationship between this person and the Yeager family.They could not do anything about the Yeagers.Eric’s face was cold and expressionless. He did not look surprised, as if he had expected this a long time ago.There was a moment of silence.Suddenly, there was a knock on the door outside.Eric raised his chin, and Mitchell went to open the door.“Ms. Nelson, I didn’t see you just now. Thanks for your hard work during this time.”Selena smiled. “You’re welcome. I’m fin
Eric said, “I won’t need you to take care of me once I can walk.”He looked at her with disdain and added, “I’m afraid you’ll take advantage of me!”Selena laughed. “Deal!”She readily agreed.She just had to be a caregiver, so she should not be ashamed to bow her head for $10 million!Selena smiled and was complacent. The resentment in her heart dissipated.Eric thought, ‘Look! There is nothing money can’t solve. What a snobbish woman!’“Now, go draw me a bath.”Selena paused, then looked at him sideways with a bit of a dilemma.“I’m a woman after all.”It was not very convenient, right?Eric took a deep breath angrily. “I’m not paralyzed! Go get the wheelchair and push me into the bathroom!”“Oh! Oh, okay…”Selena thought that she was too unprofessional.Her mind was already wondering about how Eric would look naked.He had a good figure. Hmm...However, she did not dare to think deeply because he was Eric Ferguson.Selena cleaned up the bathroom and drew the bath fo
That one sentence quelled Selena’s excitement.Oh, she forgot that the other party was Eric Ferguson.Selena chuckled. “I was just joking. How could I do such a devious thing?”Eric looked at her meaningfully as if he was saying, “Is there anything you can’t do?”Selena was speechless.All afternoon, Selena was busy helping Eric get his laptop and documents to prepare for a video conference.Eric simply used her to the fullest.Even during the meeting, he asked her to stand by with a glass of water, as if he was ready to drink water at any time.There were also a variety of imported fresh fruit and snacks.What a precious mouth this capitalist had!Selena endured it all.Seeing how enthusiastic Eric was about work, Selena thought that Eric probably would not spend too much time in bed.He would get up on his feet in two days, so she should just put up with him.At that moment, Eric was conducting a video conference with a stern expression.Selena, who was next to him, pic
“Zachary Salvatore.”Selena frowned and was a little upset.Eric only mentioned it at this time, so did he just overhear the contents of her phone call?Why was he pretending like he did not eavesdrop on her?“Right, Zachary Salvatore. Did he tell you that he helped, and you actually believed him?”Eric’s mocking tone made Selena very uncomfortable.Even if she blamed Zachary for not being honest about it, Zachary had also helped her.At least, he helped with replacing the equipment.Thus, Selena was in no position to accuse Zachary.What right did Eric have to say that?Selena frowned and suddenly felt a little upset.“He didn’t say that. I just misunderstood it. Mr. Ferguson, didn’t you say that you won’t help? Why did you go back on your word?”She remembered that Eric clearly told her back then that he would not help her.How did he forget what he said?He had a horrible memory!Eric sneered.“I was just afraid that you’d cry and beg me. Then, there will be a millio
In the dark, Eric sneered.“One thousand? You’re very experienced, huh?”Selena really was not lying.The young hunks who come to the bar like to take off their clothes when they drink too much. Then, they would dance to their heart’s content on the stage.Looking at them made people excited, but Selena only admired their bodies.Some were thin and bony.Others were fleshy and bulky.There were also some that were neither fat nor thin but had a little belly.There were very few who were as lean and well-proportioned as Eric, with such well-balanced and aesthetic abdominal muscles.Selena just felt that she should not look so eager.She snorted coldly and went to the inside study.Eric sighed.“Now, I’m even more scared! You’d better go back. I’ll call you if I need anything!”As he said that, he lifted the quilt, intending to close his eyes and go to sleep.Selena paused and no longer wanted to go into the study.Hah!Was he planning to wake her up several times at nigh
