The air was still for a moment.Selena came back to her senses and realized that she was too close to Zachary.She quickly moved her toes to push the swing back.However, Zachary suddenly pulled the chain forward. He looked persistent and stared at her without blinking.He seemed to be exploring the answer on her face.“Selena?”Selena coughed, looked away, and calmed down her beating heart.She pursed her lips, lowered her eyes, and regained her composure.“Zach, don’t be impulsive. You shouldn’t be hung up on me because I rejected you back then. I know exactly what I’m worth.”Zachary was a firefighter, but he was not from a simple family.In that dinner with Eric, Zachary was able to sit among the big shots and maintain his composure with ease as if no one else was there. This showed that he would return to his original position after all.Even if he was in a relationship, he would have to find someone who matched him.Selena did not want to be chucked aside after being
Selena thought that Zachary was a rare gem among men.Thus, she did not mind considering him.After a while, Zachary’s colleagues, who were concerned about Zachary’s love life, quickly urged him to accompany Selena.Fortunately, Zachary did not bring up the matter of Selena being his girlfriend again. Thus, Selena and Zachary got along quite casually.Zachary was an easygoing person to talk to, so it did not feel awkward around him. He would share some interesting stories from time to time, which made Selena laugh uncontrollably.“Two days ago when we were on the job to put out a fire at an old man’s house, he said his son was at home, so we went in to rescue him. But we searched several times and couldn’t find anyone. Even after the fire was extinguished, we couldn’t find his son. But guess what? His son was a cat. As soon as the fire broke out, the cat ran away. The old man saw that the cat was unscathed and got so angry that he beat the cat with a stick…”These were just trivi
Selena stood there. Even if she was a little scared of Eric, she could not show it.After settling her emotions for a while, Selena narrowed her eyes and walked in slowly.She saw that the man was standing there motionless, so she could not help but say, “I was wondering who could be so rude to enter my bedroom uninvited. It turned out to be you, Mr. Ferguson. I’m not surprised by this. After all, no one but you will do this.”Facing Selena’s derision, Eric did not get angry and yell back.On the contrary, he was uncharacteristically calm. He squinted his eyes and looked stern.“Who sent you back?”Eric could see clearly from upstairs just now, but he just wanted to hear Selena tell him in person.He had investigated everything about Zachary, so he naturally remembered what car Zachary drove.Eric had come to apologize and reconcile with Selena, but when he saw that scene earlier, he was infuriated.This woman was really restless!Selena was puzzled by Eric’s indifferent atti
“I’m sorry.”Eric blurted out in a low voice.It seemed that the apology that he had been stewing on was not that difficult to say.Why did he have to make things worse when he could solve the problem with these two words?Eric did not feel much better when he saw Selena suffer, apologize, and act indifferent.He had only one feeling, and that was that he had screwed up very badly.Selena thought she had misheard, so she raised her eyes to look at him.Eric’s chiseled face was reflected in her eyes. He was shrouded in a halo that made him look exceptionally good-looking.Eric was silent for a moment before he said in a deep voice, “I came to apologize. What I said just now was inappropriate, so I take it back. Please don’t take it to heart. We’re friends, and I don’t mean to look down on your past. You’re brave and upright to be able to break free from your past marriage. There’s nothing to mention, so I won’t bring it up again.”Selena raised her eyes and met his shallow gaze
Mitchell sent Selena another message. [Which uneducated b*stard gave you this scrap paper, Ms. Nelson? Next time, you can ask me if you don’t understand anything. I’ll answer your questions anytime!]Selena paused and replied.[Thank you. I think it’s better you don’t know.]Mitchell was speechless.He suddenly thought that something was wrong.Could it be... Mr. Ferguson?The chat between Selena and Mitchell came to an abrupt end.Selena took a deep breath and thought of the happiest moments in her life before she could suppress the anger in her heart.Otherwise, she would really explode.When she calmed down and planned to go downstairs, Eric suddenly sent her a message.[I forgot to sign that check just now. Come over tomorrow, and I’ll sign it for you.]Selena did not have any regrets in her heart. She even thought that this was just another one of his traps.Did that motherf*cker think that she was an idiot?Selena replied. [Get lost! I don’t want your stupid money!]
That was why Julie tried her best to invite Selena to make a guest appearance.Julie always had an eye for potential.It was just a short clip of around ten seconds, yet it had caused quite a stir online in an instant.[OMG! She’s so beautiful! I want to know who she is!][Isn’t this the singing bar owner some time ago?][OMG! Her figure is amazing!][She’s so much better than many celebrities. I’m now her true fan!]......Selena was in the bar, holding a cigarette in one hand while scrolling through the comments on her phone.She clicked her tongue and felt a little helpless.“Everyone has great tastes to appreciate me so much!”Chaz was speechless and thought, ‘If her fans see this, they will surely cancel her immediately…’The waiter, who was interested in the topic, came over and asked, “Boss, what’s next after this clip? Can you give us some spoilers?”Selena could not help but laugh.“She’ll undress, of course!”Everyone was shocked.Was this something they were
Soon, the person the Yeagers had been waiting for arrived.That person did not seem the slightest bit guilty for being late.A little boy followed him.The kid liked to look around and saw Selena at a glance.He thought about going there to surprise Selena, but he realized that he came with Eric, so he was hesitant.Since Chance saw Selena, Eric naturally saw her too.Eric folded his sleeves with one hand and looked stern as he glanced in the direction of Selena and Zachary. He was exuding such a frightening chill, but the couple did not notice him at all.Selena and Zachary ate happily and chatted about everything. Occasionally, they would talk about the people around them in a low voice.The more they talked, the more they hit it off. They were also no longer as distant as before.They looked like a young couple in love.This scene was an eyesore to Eric.He thought, ‘Hah! No wonder that woman was unmoved when I hinted that she could pursue me last time. She even uncharact
The Yeagers wanted a project that Eric had and expressed it in any way they could.In the end, they had a few rounds of drinks.At one point, Eric suddenly laughed good-naturedly and looked at Larry, who was apprehensive. Eric said in a cold voice, “Since your company has already withdrawn from the project, it’s impossible for you to rejoin the project. If you really want it, I can give you another opportunity. Some time ago, my project in a neighboring city had already finished laying the foundation. But I encountered some difficulties with that project, so I don’t plan to continue it. Mr. Yeager, if you’re interested, you can take it.”Larry was slightly taken aback. He drank a lot of wine all night, so his face was flushed from the alcohol.On the contrary, Eric only sipped on his drink and did not drink much. Thus, he did not look drunk at all.Cindy was distressed when she saw her father like this. However, she did not dare to say a word. She also drank a lot, so her mind w
