The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 2539

It was nice for Selena to be able to take this opportunity to vent her frustration.

Selena never thought that she and Eric would insult each other so badly one day.

She did not even know who to blame.

Eric’s whole body was tense. The veins on his forehead were bulging, and his fists were clenched tightly as he tried his best to restrain his emotions.

Her words were like sparks that ignited the bombs in his heart.

Eric had long been aware of his dark side, but no one dared to expose his repulsiveness in front of him.

However, Selena had no scruples.

Selena crossed her arms and looked at him sarcastically.

“I got it right, Eric. Just admit it. You don’t have a heart, so I don’t care who you fall in love with. I only care if I’m being cheated on!”

Her tone was so cold that she did not leave any room for maneuver.

“Are you done talking? You didn’t even ask me what happened today. You’re provoking me just because of a message? You’re not qualified to be my girlfriend!”

Eric was furious. He stretched out his hand and wanted to touch her, but he suddenly stopped mid-air and clenched his fist.

At that moment, Selena’s face suddenly darkened.

This looked more like Eric was holding back from slapping her.

Selena quickly slapped away his hand and stared at him with a cold face.

“You want to hit me?”

Selena sneered. She would not allow herself to be suppressed by another man.

Derek Norton’s abuse back then traumatized her.

Now, she had no need to put up with violence.

Selena questioned Eric. She became furious and slapped Eric’s cold and handsome face.

Slap—

The hard slap made a loud and crisp sound.

Eric tilted his head slightly after being beaten and looked at her in disbelief.

His tone became a little solemn.

“Selena, are you crazy? I think I’ve been too nice to you that you don’t have a sense of propriety anymore. Our relationship aside, I’ve helped you so many times. Do you really think that I didn’t contribute at all? Who helped you with your lawsuit with Derek Norton? Who handled your subsequent attempted murder? Have you forgotten everything?”

His eyes were somewhat cold, indifferent, and distant.

Eric reminded Selena that there was more than just a romantic relationship between them.

They only met because Selena owed him.

Selena looked at him calmly. Her heart was dead.

She looked at their relationship from the perspective of a bystander and felt that it was indeed absurd.

“Of course I didn’t forget. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have started this relationship. I knew you were a good person, so I thought of giving us a shot. But you undermine me and look down on me. Why should I lower myself to cater to your preferences? Is it just because you helped me? Is that why I should tolerate and please you? Even without your help, even if I killed Derek Norton and went to prison for the rest of my life, I would have a clear conscience. You can say that I’m ungrateful, but I have principles. You can also say that I am selfish. If I were selfless, I would’ve been taken advantage of!”

Selena’s voice was sharp. Her words were like ice picks hitting Eric’s heart.

Eric stood there. His face was swollen from the slap, and the corner of his mouth was bleeding.

His hair hung loose in front of his forehead, and he looked a little unkempt.

His eyes were scarlet from being provoked by Selena.

Eric clenched his fists tightly. The veins on the back of his hands were bulging, and his expression was stern.

“So?”

Eric was so angry that he did not know how to refute her.

If he said one word, she would have a dozen words that she would refute him with.

Would she only be happy after scolding him?
