Chapter 2471 No Dog Dares to Bite Me

Selena stood there.

Even if she was a little scared of Eric, she could not show it.

After settling her emotions for a while, Selena narrowed her eyes and walked in slowly.She saw that

the man was standing there motionless, so she could not help but say, "I was wondering who could be

so rude to enter my bedroom uninvited.It turned out to be you, Mr.Ferguson.I’m not surprised by

this.After all, no one but you will do this."

Facing Selena’s derision, Eric did not get angry and yell back On the contrary, he was

uncharacteristically calm.He squinted his eyes and looked stern.

"Who sent you back?"

Eric could see clearly from upstairs just now, but he just wanted to hear Selena tell him in person.He

had investigated everything about Zachary, so he naturally remembered what car Zachary drove.Eric

had come to apologize and reconcile with Selena, but when he saw that scene earlier, he was

infuriated.

This woman was really restless! Selena was puzzled by Eric’s indifferent attitude.She frowned, walked

in, and leaned against the wall languidly.

"Mr.Ferguson, don't you think you’re being too nosy? How does it concern you who sent me back? On

the contrary, I should be asking you why you're here, and who allowed you to come into my room?"

The evening light was gorgeous.It was as if the sunset was taking special consideration of Eric,

shrouding him in a faint halo.It was so unreal, as if it was a camera effect.

After a while, Eric finally turned around.

His cold and indifferent eyes swept over Selena, and his voice was deep as he said, "You even slept on

my bed! You went in and out of my bedroom at will and kissed me proactively.I think our relationship is

no longer limited to ordinary friends, right? So, what’s wrong with me coming into your bedroom?"

His righteous attitude made Selena speechless for a moment.

What kind of roguish logic was this? Selena immediately stood up straight.Her face was glum as she

corrected him.

"Don’t make it sound so ambiguous.I was your caretaker.That's why I went in and out of your room at

will.Even though we slept in the same bed, nothing actually happened between us, so it didn’t mean

anything!"

"Hah! Why do you sound so regretful that nothing happened between us?"

The man’s voice was hoarse.

"I’m not! Don’t twist my words!"

Selena immediately refuted.

The man frowned and looked at her for two seconds.His throat moved, and his eyes were sharp and

cold.

"Twist your words? Did I make up the fact that you took the initiative to kiss me? I didn’t know that

you’re one to deny what you’ve done!" Selena frowned.

She heard some sadness in his tone.

What was happening? She sneered.

"I already told you that I didn't do it on purpose, so just forget it! Can’t you take it as if you got bitten by

a dog?"

"No dog dares to bite me!"

Selena looked at him irritably.

"So what? I’ve already apologized, so why are you still harping on this matter? Why don’t you publicize

it everywhere, then? Anyway, I won’t be the one who suffers."

Selena knew that Eric would not dare to make this known to others because he did not want people to

know about his injury.He also did not want others to know that he had spent so many days with a

woman.He would not be able to explain himself.

Selena was on the losing end in this matter.

If Eric dared to publicize it, her bar’s business might even get better! However, Selena had a clear

conscience.

Eric looked at her silently.

Adam’s apple rolled slightly, and the emotions in his eyes surged with forbearance and restraint.He

was furious, but he also knew that he was in the wrong.

Eric averted his gaze and looked at the delicate little white flowers growing on the balcony.

He instantly calmed down.

At last, he spoke again in a soft voice.

"I didn’t come to quarrel with you.I came to explain to you that I didn’t mention Derek Norton on

purpose last time to provoke you.He’s a vile person who isn’t worthy to be compared with me.It’s also

not your fault that you met him..."

It was difficult for Eric to apologize.He did not say "I’m sorry", but he was explaining himself patiently to

Selena.However, this explanation made Selena’s eyes turn red in an instant.Her heart felt stuffy, and

she felt like she could not breathe properly.

She bluntly interrupted his nonsense.

"That's enough! What on earth are you trying to say? Why must you mention Derek Norton over and

over again? Yes, I was married to him before, and he was a scumbag, but you don’t have to remind me

every now and then so that I don’t forget my identity! I just kissed you, and I've already apologized for

it.What else do you want?! Were you so fussy when your ex-wife slept with you?"

Eric was rubbing salt into her wound.Thus, Selena was returning the favor.

If Eric could mention Derek Norton, why could she not mention Eric’s ex-wife, who was supposedly a

terrorist? Hah! Who was better than whom now? Eric’s eyes were cold, and his face darkened.

His lips were tightly pressed into a straight line, and his chest was heaving up and down as he stared at

her intently.

Eric looked provoked because of her words.

There was silence in the air for a few seconds.

Both of them fell silent.

The light and shadow were interspersed in the room.

Selena took a deep breath.She looked helpless, defeated, and a bit impatient.

"Fine.I went overboard.It’s important for us to keep our boundaries.How about this? Why don’t you tell

me what I can do for you to turn the page? I know I was in the wrong.I shouldn’t covet you, and I was

momentarily confused.I will never dare to do this again."

Selena was extremely humble, but she was also unwilling as she felt aggrieved.Gradually, her eyes

turned red.

That was because Selena felt that Eric had exposed her most wretched and vulnerable side.

Selena also thought of what that bright and sunny Zachary told her on the school playground this

afternoon.Zachary regarded her as a goddess! However, Selena was nothing but a pile of sh*t in front

of Eric.

He also wanted to guarantee that she would no longer covet him.

Selena regretted that she did not agree to Zachary’s proposal in the afternoon.

How nice would it be to be Zachary’s girlfriend? Selena was never one to feel aggrieved.

That marriage broke her, but she escaped without hesitation.

She should find someone who would support her and take care of her sensitive and cynical heart;

someone who would protect what little self-esteem she had left.Selena thought she was crazy.

At this moment, she would rather use ten years of life in exchange to turn back time.

If she could turn back time, she would never go to Eric’s house, let alone kiss him inexplicably.

That was why Eric was pestering her.

Now, they were at a stalemate.

After a few seconds of silence, Eric’s cold expression changed slightly.He seemed a little flustered, but

that soon disappeared.

Eric did not mean it that way. n.ovele.book Selena, who was right in front of him, looked bold and

beautiful with outstanding facial features and a stubborn expression.

When she stood there with reddened eyes that glanced at him coldly, Eric felt his heart clenching.

It was so painful that he could not speak.

Although Selena admitted her mistake and apologized, Eric’s eyes became even darker and colder.
