Selena sat there and showed off her relationship with Eric’s ex-marriage partner.
It was ridiculous.
Under the scorching midsummer sun, Selena was covered in a cold sweat.
Her emotions fluctuated more violently than before when she was abused by Derek Norton.
Her heart was beating with difficulty.
Selena could not tell what it felt like. She just felt a twitching pain that made her face pale.
Cindy gave Selena enough time to settle down or torment her.
Seeing Selena’s reaction, Cindy showed a confident smile.
Finally, Cindy spoke.
“This was recorded yesterday. Everyone present heard it. I wanted to post it online, but I thought about your feelings and didn’t want to hurt innocent people. So, I came to you personally.”
Selena’s dark eyes finally moved slightly and turned to Cindy’s face.
She remained silent and waited for Cindy to continue speaking.
Cindy smiled kindly.
“I know you’re in love with him. Who wouldn’t like him? I liked him back then because of his family background, and I admired his status. That’s why I can’t forget about him. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been so humble. You can also see that he’s not a sympathetic person and that he could easily manipulate anyone. He doesn’t deserve your affection. “
“What are you trying to do?”
Selena lifted her chin slightly and regained her senses.
She did not believe that Cindy told her this out of kindness.
This was a truth that the world knew.
Cindy must have her own purpose.
Cindy’s smile deepened when she heard this.
“You’re a smart person. Your last marriage wasn’t great, so you should understand that feelings are unnecessary, like icing on the cake. After all, men are unreliable. Someone like Eric will only give you ten percent of the affection you give him. He would only bow to his first wife. In fact, I don’t think he likes Nicole that much. If he really liked her, then they wouldn’t have had a failed marriage that ended in divorce. He’s just unreconciled that someone who liked him so much suddenly doesn’t like him anymore. It’s like a chess piece in his hand ran into the opponent’s camp and sided with the opponent. He didn’t get Nicole back because he didn’t dare to force Nicole due to her family background. That’s why he never forgot her. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have gotten a chance to be near Eric.”
The first time Cindy said “we” made Selena suddenly realize something.
It was as if a bucket of cold water was poured over her head, completely waking her up.
What was the difference between Selena and Cindy?
Selena managed to climb into Eric’s bed while Cindy did not.
Eric could only choose between them.
Selena suddenly remembered Eric’s aggressive attitude toward her in her bedroom at the bar.
At that time, his condescending attitude and his confidence broke down her psychological defenses for a moment.
Selena felt intimidated by the pressure exerted by someone from the top of the pyramid.
Eric said something similar to Cindy, that Nicole could withstand all his pressure.
However, Selena could not.
