The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 2495

Zachary pondered and said in a low voice, “Sorry…”

Selena did not want to hear his apologies.

Apologizing meant that she had to compromise and forgive him.

Selena could forgive him, but she would not compromise.

She did not even want to continue this topic.

Zachary stood there powerlessly. His complexion was glum as he tried to convince her.

“Selena, I’ve liked you for a long time…”

“Thanks for liking me. I know you liked me for a long time, and I was really happy. That’s because when I didn’t know what my future held in those dark days and wanted to die with my ex-husband at any time, someone still liked me, which meant that someone in this world would miss me. I am really honored and happy that you liked me, and I sincerely wanted to try being with you. But I’m sorry. I can’t persuade myself to compromise. This is my bottom line, so please forgive me.”

Selena looked at Zachary sincerely with clear eyes. She had no intention of leading him on.

She had always been serious and respectful toward Zachary.

Zachary looked at her for a few seconds and slowly relaxed his stiff face.

He felt suffocated.

Zachary knew that she was not joking, nor was she really blaming him for abandoning her.

If they were really together, such a thing might happen more than once.

Out of his job responsibility, Zachary would have to repeatedly leave her behind.

However, Selena should not be treated like this. She had always been a proud and bright person. She struggled out of the mud to be reborn, not to compromise.

Selena wanted to choose an easy life and someone who would not leave her behind. She was worth it.

Zachary’s throat moved slightly. A bitterness spread all over his body.

Perhaps God was mocking him, giving him hope and depriving him of it.

Zachary quietly lowered his eyes. After a long time, he smiled stiffly.

“Okay, I understand. I won’t bother you in the future.”

He looked at her, pursed his lips, and asked, “Was it Eric?”

The person who picked her up last night.

Selena lowered her eyes lightly and nodded.

Zachary exhaled lightly and left the bar quietly without saying anything.

It was good that it was Eric.

Judging from Eric’s attitude and reaction last night, Zachary felt that Eric cared for Selena.

Selena sat quietly for ten minutes after Zachary left.

Chaz came out after a while and saw that Selena was the only one there.

“Is it settled? Did you give up on Zachary?”

Selena glanced at Chaz, sighed, and stood up.

“You’re right. The question has always been to live or to dream…”

Chaz suddenly understood the meaning behind her words and immediately beamed with joy.

“Boss, I haven’t seen you wear this dress before. You look beautiful! It suits you very well. Oh, right. This brand is worth as much as the most expensive bottle of wine in our bar!”

Selena looked at him with disdain.

“What? Can’t I wear a counterfeit?”

Chaz paused and thought, ‘How could Mr. Ferguson allow his woman to wear counterfeit items?’

Selena flicked her hair and went up the stairs gracefully.

“Don’t disturb my sleep. Wake me up for dinner later.”

Selena had not eaten much in the morning. Those few slices of bread and salad were not enough to fill her stomach.

She was better off eating a burrito.

Chaz was speechless.

Selena fell asleep as soon as she lay on her bed.

The exhaustion from last night overwhelmed her, so she had no energy to think about anything else.

She would just have to deal with whatever came her way day by day.
