Selena was not afraid of others watching her. She stood there righteously and said with a smile, “Ms. Yeager, go home. Mr. Ferguson doesn’t want to see you.”“Whatever you say isn’t credible. I don’t believe that you conveyed the message. How about this? Ask Mr. Ferguson to come out and tell me in person.”Cindy lifted her chin with a haughty look. She would not give up until she reached her goal.Selena raised her eyebrows nonchalantly.“Ms. Yeager, don’t you understand? You’re being rude for coming here uninvited. Is this what the Yeager family is capable of? To tell you the truth, Eric can’t come out because he’s still lying in bed naked from having too much sex last night.”“You… You’re shameless!”Cindy yelled.Selena laughed. Her slender neck and shoulders were straight, and she was a charming woman. When she stood there, she looked more like an arrogant little temptress.“You’re even more shameless than I am!”Selena was not the type to just let someone scold her.She
“I knew you’d been coveting me for a long time. Don’t try to stay by my side through crooked ways. I’m not interested in a woman like you!”Eric said coldly.He tried his best to suppress the strange feeling in his heart.He told himself to be calm and rational.It must be because he had not touched a woman for so long.Selena nodded seriously.“Okay. It’s my fault. Just take it as I’ve lost my mind. It’s not like I haven’t seen a man before!”Selena rolled her eyes speechlessly and thought, ‘So what if I kissed him? He sounded like I stole his virginity! It’s not like I kissed a married man or a monk. Was he that great? I was just confused for a moment!’Eric casually looked up and raised his eyebrows slightly.“Oh, of course you’ve seen it before. Did your heart beat faster when you were with Derek Norton?”This question made the temperature in the room drop to a freezing point.Selena’s good mood completely crashed.With a shocked expression on her face, she slowly turne
Eric stood there motionless.His pride would not allow him to keep a woman who had nothing to do with him.Moreover, there was an ambiguous tension between them.Eric could not see through his own heart, nor could he see through hers.Thus, he dared not take a step forward.That was because he could not promise that he would give her everything as his wife.Eric was helpless.He stood there like a sculpture, cold and stiff.Then, he heard the car engine downstairs.Selena had probably asked the driver to take her home. With her temper, Selena had already gotten the servants to listen to her only after a few days here.Eric pursed his lips. His eyes gradually became indifferent.......In the bar, there was no one there during the day. Thus, when Selena went back, no one was around.At last, she was back on her own turf and did not need to walk around eggshells anymore.Selena went upstairs, threw her things there, and went back downstairs.She was not angry because of Er
Perhaps due to their professions, everyone had a straight posture and great build, which was pleasing to the eye.The boys were interested in the truck and excitedly wanted to climb up to take a closer look.The girls only surrounded the good-looking firefighters and asked for hugs.Seeing this, Selena felt that having a thing for good-looking men was a bad habit that developed since young.Zachary’s colleagues saw the woman behind Zachary and looked at him with a playful smile. Then, they greeted her as if they already knew who she was.One of the youngest smiled naively and asked, “Zach, is this the owner of the bar that you helped to buy fire-fighting equipment for?”Everyone else pricked up their ears and listened.Only Selena was a little shocked and thought, ‘So many people knew about this?’Zachary lightly reprimanded him with a carefree smile.“Fortunately, she is. If not, you would’ve ruined my chances!”The others chuckled.Selena also stood up and said with a smil
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
