Harvey paused, and Selena quickly said, “It’s okay, Harvey. I’ll go over and say hello, then I’ll come back to you later.”As she spoke, she hurriedly turned around, not wanting to put Harvey in a difficult position.Mr. Griffin said a few more words to Harvey before turning around and following Selena.Lara, who was next to Harvey, squinted her eyes and looked at Harvey suspiciously.“Are Mr. Ferguson and Ms. Nelson not acquainted with each other? They don’t look like they’re strangers!”Selena dared to diss Eric before, and now, Eric even wanted to teach Selena golf.This could only mean that Eric was interested in Selena. Eric either knew Selena from the beginning or perhaps he wanted to get to know her.Harvey recalled that Selena left the banquet last time, and Eric chased after her.At that time, Harvey did not think much about it. Now that he thought about it, it seemed odd.However, this was not the basis for him to discuss Selena’s private affairs behind her back.He
Eric did not hesitate and ran over by himself. He did not ask the caddy to pick up the golf ball.Mr. Griffin’s shocked smile faded.He looked at Eric mysteriously, then at Selena.“You two really don’t know each other?”Selena shook her head.She would not admit it no matter what.Mr. Griffin nodded knowingly. “I think he’s interested in you! You should be careful and don’t agree to it so easily. Although Mr. Ferguson is rich, he’s not kind to women. Only agree to it if you want his money, but if you don’t, forget it. Harvey is a better choice!”Mr. Griffin had a lot of experience and got the gist of the situation in just a few sentences.Selena looked at Mr. Griffin in surprise.The small old man looked shrewd and obsequious as he wanted to be in his investor’s good graces.However, he gave her such advice.Was he not afraid of offending Eric?Selena’s heart felt warm.At first, Selena thought that Mr. Griffin had some bad intentions when he forced her to play golf with
The car was parked not far away.Selena took the initiative to open the car door and even used her hand to block the car frame to ensure that Eric would not hit it by accident when he got into the car.Then, Selena went to the other side and got in the car quickly. The driver left without asking questions and sped away.Eric did not let go of his hand, and Selena did not say a word.She was worried and scared.Selena was not afraid that she would get entangled with him again. She was afraid that she had destroyed such an outstanding person.How could such a proud and indifferent man be ruined by her?Selena loathed herself for her carelessness.She went too far and did not pay attention to his safety at all.Now that this happened, Selena was frustrated and regretful.Eric probably felt her trembling, so he reached out his hand and pinched Selena’s arm. His voice was hoarse but restrained.“Are you nervous? Don’t be scared. Luckily, you’re not the one who is injured. Otherwi
Mitchell sent Selena a message and asked her to stay with Eric for a while. He would send someone to take her place soon.Selena did not want to leave.She wanted to stay and take care of Eric herself.Earlier, she was forced to help, but now, she was not.In just a few hours, her mentality changed.Selena looked at the man lying on the bed with half of his face covered in gauze and felt an aching bitterness in her heart.Eric’s exquisite eyebrows and eyes were no longer visible. Only that gory scar was left.He might not be able to see anything in the future.Eric would no longer be so proud and flamboyant, and some people would mock him for being blind.This was all her fault.Selena took a deep breath.Mitchell asked someone to deliver food to her, but she did not eat it after getting it. She just sat on the chair and watched Eric.She looked at him carefully and conscientiously traced every inch of his face.Eric’s brow bones were cold and rigid, which made him look un
Eric’s voice was a little hoarse.Selena gently placed her forehead on Eric’s head and hugged him gently from behind.“Eric, don’t be afraid. You’ll be fine once the foreign experts arrive.”Eric’s heart was cold, but at this moment, some warmth seeped into it.Her soft voice and body made him feel relaxed.This way, his injury did not seem so unacceptable.If he had known from the beginning that she would be soft-hearted when he was hurt, he would have let her slap him a few more times to vent her anger.Eric thought that he should not have left so early.Eric’s mind suddenly went to other places.His throat moved slightly.He seemed a little thirsty.“Selena…”Can we get back together?He wanted to ask this question, but he was afraid to hear her refusal.Eric knew very well that the reason for his restlessness during this time was her.He could not let her go. He was just used to the most miserable people in the world hugging each other for warmth.Once Selena left,
Selena went to get Eric’s laptop and needed to enter the password.Eric told her without hesitation. When she turned on the laptop, he paused and added, “This is also the password to my safe. You have to remember it.”Selena was speechless.“Would you tell your caregiver or assistant the combination to your safe?”She was clearly not interested.Eric recalled that Selena had mailed back his unlimited credit card.Why would she be interested in these things?He looked desolate. Fortunately, his eyes were covered with gauze, so Selena could not see the emotions he inadvertently revealed.“Of course not. I only tell people I trust.”The man’s voice was deep and powerful.Selena smiled and opened the mailbox.It had a few unread emails in English and French.Fortunately, Selena had been abroad before, so French was not a problem for her.However, the content...Selena sighed.She recognized the words, but she did not know what they meant.Thus, she could only read and could
Mitchell sat there and looked at his phone from time to time, feeling a little nervous.“Ms. Nelson, don’t worry. They are the best specialists in the world.”Selena twitched her lips and nodded.“I know, but I’m just worried. What if the best specialist can’t do anything about it? What if he loses his eyes?”Mitchell pursed her lips. “I asked the specialist. There’s a high probability that they can keep his left eyeball. But it’ll be more serious if his retina is damaged, so we must go abroad for treatment. The resources for domestic retinal transplants aren’t sufficient, and they only accept blind donors. Mr. Ferguson can’t stay blind all his life. He needs to have at least one good eye that can see.”If the high and mighty Eric really went blind, Mitchell was afraid that Eric would not be able to accept it.Selena trembled slightly.After a long time, she took a deep breath.“It’s okay. I can give him one of my eyes.”As soon as she finished speaking, Mitchell looked up at
Just as Selena was about to speak, Lara, who was next to her, could not help but said, “How could it be? You can see by the number of people that Mr. Ferguson has here that Ms. Nelson is doing well. I think it’s a blessing in disguise, right? So many people wish for a chance to take care of Mr. Ferguson.”Selena was slightly taken aback by Lara’s sincere and serious words.She turned her head with a smile, looked at Lara, and said politely, “Lara, if you wish for it, I can tell Mr. Ferguson to let you stay and be his caregiver.”Lara was slightly taken aback.The situation instantly turned awkward.Lara did not expect Selena to talk back to her.At the moment, Lara was in the limelight on the internet. Everyone praised her when she returned to showbiz.No one dared to be so blunt to her.How could Lara work as a caregiver for Eric?Lara’s face turned pale.It was not that she did not want to, but if news got out, her reputation would be gone.Harvey heard the tension between
Chatty and Fischer had been apart for so long, so they cried when they finally hugged.Fischer could not bear to see her cry.When her sobbing eased a little, Fischer lowered his head to wipe her tears and gently coaxed her not to cry.Chatty took a deep breath and calmed herself down as soon as possible.She had so many questions for him.Seeing that her eyes were swollen from crying, Fischer pinched her cheek and said with a smile, “Do you still want to drink coffee? If you don’t want this, we can go to my place, and I’ll make you a cup of coffee.”Chatty nodded.Fischer let down his hand and naturally held Chatty’s hand. He turned around to pick up her bag and pushed the door open.The waiter at the back was envious that they were such a perfect match.Chatty saw that he was holding her hand and felt as if an electric current passed through her heart.When they were young, Fischer often held her hand. They were inseparable, and he liked her the most.Was he still the same
After Chatty left, Clayton sighed miserably for several days, and Nicole was speechless when she saw this.Life in school was not so boring.Although Chatty had been spoiled since childhood, she was not arrogant or insufferable.Chatty was bubbly, outgoing, and clever, so she was very popular.From time to time, she invited everyone to party in her big villa. Thus, everyone loved her even more.Chatty also enjoyed her time alone.She would go for a walk along the Seine and feed the pigeons in the sunset...However, she always felt that someone was watching her whenever she was alone.Even so, she did not think much about it. After all, her father arranged so many security personnel for her.Maybe that stare was from a bodyguard.Chatty walked alone in the sunset with an ice cream in hand and a limited-edition bag that her mom bought for her. Chatty was planning to send this bag back to Mediania.She was a young and beautiful lady with stunning features, so she was a sight to
Clayton talked to Chatty about studying abroad.Chatty agreed without hesitation.He asked her where she wanted to go, to which she replied that she was fine with anywhere except France.Clayton pondered for a while before asking, “Are you reluctant about France because of Fischer?”Chatty’s eyes turned red.“I don’t remember him at all. Daddy, don’t mention him!”She felt aggrieved.Chatty grew up with him, and he suddenly disappeared one day.It felt like a dream.That person was no longer behind her. Fischer was no longer around.Chatty missed him very much, but Fischer did not even say goodbye.Clayton touched her head and looked at his daughter in distress.“Chatty, now that you’ve grown up, you should know that Fischer had no choice but to leave. He also couldn’t contact you, so if you see him in the future, don’t blame him.”Chatty stubbornly turned her head away, pretending not to care.She was the apple of Clayton’s eye, so when had she ever suffered any grievanc
In the blink of an eye, Chatty grew up.As soon as she graduated from high school, she found a boyfriend.She was also happy to go home and share the good news with Nicole.Nicole did not think much of it. She thought that her daughter should enjoy the feeling of sweet and youthful love.Thus, Nicole asked Chatty about her feelings and did not think she was too serious in a relationship.Nicole felt that she could turn a blind eye to it.However, when Clayton found out, he could not sleep all night.Clayton intended to have a good talk with his daughter.Chatty did not think much of it.“Everyone in my class has a boyfriend. If I didn’t have one, I wouldn’t be able to keep up with the trend! Of course, I have to date while I’m young. Otherwise, it won’t be considered puppy love anymore! Life without a first love isn’t perfect!”Clayton tried to persuade her. “You’re still young. If you see the world, you’ll know that men aren’t great.”“Then is Mommy blind since she’s with y
Another surveillance footage showed that the waiter almost dropped the tray because of the instability of the wine glasses, so the waiter moved the position of the wine glass. However, Jade was unaware of this.The autopsy results came out overnight.Jade was found to be poisoned by potassium cyanide.The ingredients were the same as the small bottle that Jade was carrying.Jade intentionally wanted to kill someone, but she accidentally killed herself.She would never understand which part of her scheme went wrong and why she ended up dead.The police checked the surveillance footage and found that the small bottle was initially dropped by Selena’s aunt.They followed the lead and arrested her.The aunt confessed everything without omission and told the police that she was threatened, so she had to go to the event.However, the aunt did not want to harm anyone, so she took the opportunity of her fall to throw away the bottle of medicine.Unexpectedly, Jade did not give up and
Jade was silent for a moment. Then, she pursed her lips.“I don’t care what method you use. You must get your parents to see Selena. Otherwise, I will make your parents drink this bottle of potassium cyanide.”Jennifer raised her head abruptly. Her face was extremely pale.“Okay.”She spoke in a low voice.The uneasiness and fear in her eyes could not be concealed.......A few days later, the opportunity came.Eric specially brought Selena to attend a charity auction to relax her mind.Moreover, he also bought a lot of jewelry and antiques. Soon, he became the focus of the crowd.After the auction, there was a charity dinner.Jennifer’s parents managed to get an invitation through various channels.Jade was already in the center of the venue. She wanted to watch this good show, but Jennifer’s parents came late, and the crowd dispersed when they arrived.Jade was furious.If they missed this opportunity, how long would they have to wait for the next opportunity?The Stan
When Selena talked about Nicole and Eric, she had a smile on her face, and there was no concern or disgust in her eyes.It was probably because Selena felt that Eric had left his past behind.Eric would never approach Nicole again, and they each had their own lives.Nicole smiled. The gemstone bracelet in the box was shiny and beautiful. It was extravagant with each carefully crafted gemstone. There was a kind of wild and exquisite beauty to it.Nicole shook her head and could not help but laugh.“I liked collecting these a few years ago, but I’ve restrained myself now. Thank you, I really like it!”Selena took the initiative to give her a gift, which showed that she did not mind Nicole’s past with Eric. They just laughed it off.Nicole wore the bracelet on her wrist. It was indeed very beautiful.Selena smiled and was very happy to see that Nicole liked it.“The past is in the past. Let’s forgive each other, okay?”Nicole nodded with sore eyes.“It’s a pity I didn’t prepare
Jade’s rudeness made Floyd’s face darken.Nicole twitched the corner of her mouth indifferently.“The shares of Stanton Corporation belong to the Stanton family. Back then, Uncle Noah signed his shares over to the company so that he would only enjoy the dividends. Now that he has left the company, he will not be able to enjoy the dividends. Aunt Jade, your plan has failed. These shares aren’t part of your property division. Even if they are to be divided, the interests of the company come first.”Jade’s complexion was dull.“Then what should I do? If he goes to jail, how will I survive? I don’t care! Those shares must be given to me! Otherwise, I won’t rest!”Jade sat there looking like a rogue, as if she was determined to get the shares.Floyd’s face was gloomy, and he glanced at Jade with a complicated look.“You should go back and wait for the police and the company’s notice. Noah stole hundreds of millions of dollars from the company. The company is nice enough not to chase
Jade’s face turned pale.“You should try both, or at least find a reliable lawyer to get him less jail time.”Nicole could not help but chuckle.She interrupted their conversation.“Aunt Jade, in fact, you came at the right time. We’re here to discuss how to rescue Uncle Noah!”Jade glanced at her in surprise and disbelief.“Then… What did you discuss?”Clayton smiled inexplicably. His warm gaze fell on Nicole, and he looked like he was watching a good show.Nicole sighed.“Actually, we have consulted a lawyer. The worst-case scenario is the death penalty. After all, he killed two people. But there is a way. Uncle Noah was married to you back then, right? As long as you come forward to testify that Uncle Noah has been with you all the time, so he didn’t have a chance to commit those crimes, there may be a glimmer of hope!”Jade’s face turned pale instantly, and she stood up in shock.“You… You want me to give a false statement? How could I? This is illegal!”Nicole sneered
