“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 million scandals going around by then!”
As he said that, he looked away.
The outside was lush and green. The sky was gradually dimming. The sunlight broke through the clouds, and the beam of light shone straight down on the ground.
It was very beautiful.
Eric thought that he had not looked outside like this for a long time.
Clearly, this villa had the best view.
In the evening, the servants prepared their meals and brought them up.
Once Eric woke up, there was nothing to hide.
The company stabilized.
However, Eric only had a bland vegetable soup while Selena had king crab and seafood chowder with various nutritious side dishes.
Eric was a little dumbfounded.
Why was there such a big difference between their meals?
Selena smiled brightly.
“Eat, Mr. Ferguson! Don’t be shy!”
She lowered her head and ate the seafood chowder in front of her with relish.
“This king crab is so fresh! Only you are capable of getting such freshly flown seafood!”
Selena kept praising the food with one word, “fresh”.
Eric was frustrated. “So, I can only have this while you eat all that?”
Selena seemed surprised.
“Of course! You can’t eat seafood or any other allergens now. But you can watch as I eat and pretend that you’ve eaten it!”
Eric suddenly lost his appetite.
This woman was deliberately here to torture him.
After finally finishing her meal, Selena went out for a walk by herself and came back.
Eric bossed her around.
Selena cursed him a million times in her heart, but she still kept a decent smile on her face.
Finally, when Eric was done with his work, Selena started to yawn and feel sleepy.
She felt that even if Eric became a disabled person, she could still give him an award for being a determined individual.
This was not something ordinary people could achieve.
After Eric washed up and prepared to rest, Selena went to take a shower and changed into her pajamas.
Then, she went to the inside study, where she usually slept.
Eric had not fallen asleep yet, but when he saw her going to the study in the dark, he felt something strange in his heart.
In less than an hour, Selena’s phone rang.
Selena had already fallen asleep and was woken up, so she was annoyed.
“Who is it?”
“Ahem… It’s me. I haven’t taken my medicine yet…”
