For a while, the air seemed condensed.
It was freezing cold.
Nicole and Clayton, who were watching the drama unfold, felt awkward.
Even Clayton felt uncomfortable and suddenly pitied Eric.
Eric’s face was so dark that no one could see his emotions. They could only feel the chill that he was exuding.
It was gloomy and frightening.
Selena knew that she said the wrong thing. Her shoulders shook. Just as she was just about to make amends and admit her mistake, Eric looked at her deeply and walked out.
When Eric left, Selena’s heart skipped a beat.
Selena thought she was mistaken because she saw that the corners of the man’s cold eyes were red.
He seemed to be crying.
Poor guy…
Selena looked at the man who disappeared at the door, then at Nicole and Clayton.
She immediately felt a little awkward.
“I’m sorry, Nicole. I didn’t mean to mention you or Mr. Sloan.”
Clayton waved his hand, showing that he did not mind at all.
After all, he was a gentleman.
Nicole smiled. “It’s okay, but Mr. Ferguson looks offended. Did you offend him before?”
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Eric’s self-esteem was crushed.
Selena sighed.
“Well, not really. I just owe him a lot of favors. Forget it. I’ll apologize to him!”
Selena felt that if she delayed this any longer, Eric might get her bar to shut down tomorrow.
After all, it was easy for rich and powerful people like Eric to crush Selena to death.
Nicole looked at Clayton and thought about it before voicing out what she noticed earlier.
“Eric has the same old problem.”
“What problem?”
“He’s so full of himself.”
After Nicole finished speaking, Clayton nodded in agreement.
Based on Selena and Eric’s short conversation just now, they could tell that Eric misunderstood Selena and that Selena did not want to be misunderstood.
Obviously, Selena was the one who did not want to be misunderstood.
However, Clayton was happy to see that Eric was involved with another woman. He happily shared the gossip that he heard with Nicole.
“I heard that Mr. Ferguson plans to have a marriage alliance with Ms. Yeager!”
“Ms. Yeager?”
Nicole pondered for a while before she thought of the Yeager family.
The Yeager family was not the most outstanding in the elite circle.
However, Ms. Yeager was a strong woman.
“It’s good that he finally figured it out.”
Clayton nodded impatiently.
“Seeing him alone, I feel sorry for him too…”
Nicole glanced at Clayton and thought, ‘Men are such hypocrites. How could Clayton even lie like that? Clayton’s getting more cunning. I think he shouldn’t be too close to Kai! Kai is such a bad influence!’
Kai, who was obediently cooking at home, suddenly sneezed.
......
Selena chased after Eric. It was quite cold outside.
She looked around and thought that Eric might have already left.
She shivered and was about to go back inside when she suddenly saw the lights of a low-key and luxurious black Bentley on the opposite side of the road.
The light was aiming at her.
It seemed as if Eric was going to run her over in the next second.
Selena inexplicably sensed some danger.
Sure enough, Eric was the owner of the car.
Selena pursed her lips and mustered up the courage to go over.
She tapped on the driver’s window.
