Chapter 2528 Easy to Fool
Selena could not help but laugh. She walked over clutching her stomach.
“Mr. Ferguson, when did you learn how to bartend?”
Eric sat there irritably, but he had to endure it.
Hearing what she said, he could only tell the truth.
“I don’t. I simply poured some drinks. Anyway, no one can taste the difference after blending the drinks randomly. Those people obviously don’t know how to taste alcohol.”
Eric felt that the ladies were easy to fool.
Eric made another glass and handed it over.
“This is my treat.”
Selena had a specious smile. “Mr. Ferguson, did you forget whose territory this is?”
“It’s yours, but I made this drink. Can’t I buy you a drink?”
He said it righteously without blushing.
Selena was speechless.
“Mr. Ferguson, you’re lucky that you have a good family background.”
“If not?”
“You would’ve been beaten to death long ago.”
Hearing what she said, Eric could not help but laugh.
It was rare for the two of them to get along so peacefully.
This was the first time they spoke as if nothing had happened between them after their argument. It was much better than the awkwardness just now.
After that, Selena picked up the glass, took a sip, and spit it back out in an instant.
“How much lemon sour did you put in this?”
It was concentrated.
Eric squinted his eyes and looked at the bottle in front of him.
“Half a bottle.”
Selena was speechless.
She had a new impression of Eric again. Outside of his career, he accomplished nothing.
Selena drove him out of the bar.
Eric was quite reluctant.
After all, he could stay without spending money if he was behind the bar.
“Why are you back again?”
“Oh, I’m still waiting for you to think about it.”
“You’re really…” Selena was a little bit dumbfounded.
Selena did not pay much attention to him all night.
In the end, she still went back with Eric.
They did not reconcile. She just decided to let it go.
Selena also thought it through.
She would just live in a daze for the rest of her life.
As long as she did not expect anything from him, she would not be disappointed.
She would wait until she met her true love, and he would wait until he found a suitable marriage partner.
Then, they would naturally break up.
In their current state, Selena seemed a little unwilling to let go.
She did not want to let her feelings go to waste like this.
Selena wanted to leave when she did not like him anymore.
She should wait until her feelings gradually wear off before breaking up.
Eric was elated. There was a large bouquet of flowers in the back of the car, which was gorgeous.
Selena saw it and just smiled.
“Why? Did the old woman sell flowers again? Did you buy them by chance?”
Eric glanced at her and pinched her cheek.
“I bought it especially for you, okay?”
He had wanted to find an excuse, but her tone did not seem very happy.
Thus, he went all out.
Would it not be more favorable for him to admit his intentions?
Moreover, he noticed that Selena hated dishonesty.
Selena smiled and said nothing, but she seemed very satisfied with the answer.
Eric kept silent about the apartment he prepared for her. After all, he had bad memories of it and did not want to go back there.
Thus, they went straight to the villa.
When Selena got out of the car, the lights in the villa were still lit.
Eric took her hand and went in.
“Are you hungry? Should I get someone to cook something for you?”
Selena said, “Forget it. Don’t bother. I’m not that hungry.”
Eric was not in the mood to eat anything either.
He calmly went upstairs to do some work.
When Selena came out of the shower, she noticed that he had already showered in the guest room. At this moment, he was holding his phone to make a call on the balcony. His voice was deep and pleasant.
As soon as she lay down, the man came up behind her.
He fumbled around and kissed her face.
The two of them had an in-depth exchange of bodily fluids. When Selena was half asleep, Eric suddenly woke her up again.
“Selena, I have a question for you.”
“What?”
“What do you like about me?”
Eric spoke quietly, with a hint of anticipation.
He wanted to know what she liked about him and continue to maintain it in the future so that their relationship could last longer.
Selena closed her eyes. She was sleepy and did not know what Eric was thinking.
She did not want to answer him, but he looked like he would not give up until he heard an answer.
Thus, she thought about it seriously and replied, “Maybe your melancholy soul deeply attracted me…”
Eric was speechless.
What the hell was she talking about?
——
Selena and Eric had just made up.
Thus, Eric paid special attention to Selena’s mood.
He placed the property deed on the table early in the morning and went to work.
He did not dare to disturb her sleep.
When Selena got up, she saw the deed on the table and picked it up to have a look.
She paused.
The name on the deed was changed to hers alone.
Eric was really generous.
The location was excellent, so it would definitely appreciate astronomically over the years.
Selena found a drawer and put it away.
She was not that lucky to live in it.
The last few days, she kept her temper in check and did not blackmail Eric with marriage or their relationship.
From time to time, she would even prepare some small gifts for him.
Eric was a little flattered by her change in attitude.
He was also relieved.
Lately, Ferguson Corporation had done a tentative check on CK Corporation and understood the internal restructuring of CK Corporation.
The old chairman wanted to train his new successor. The first candidate was naturally his precious daughter, Taylor Caldwell.
However, Taylor studied art abroad and was more interested in playing the piano and dancing.
Although she was working in the company, there were still many people who doubted her ability.
Therefore, Taylor valued this cooperation with Ferguson Corporation.
This way, Eric did not have to worry that CK Corporation would sabotage them.
Taylor went to Ferguson Corporation several times, but Eric did not see her every time.
However, he could not ignore her.
Fortunately, Taylor valued this cooperation, so no one thought that she had ulterior motives.
Mitchell also went to the reception to pick her up in person. It could be seen how sincere Ferguson Corporation was.
When the cooperation was finalized, Eric also attended the relevant celebration.
Many details were discussed at the banquet.
To his surprise, the old director of CK Corporation placed great expectations on his daughter. He gave her a lot of power, so she could make the final decision on some details without going through him.
However, Eric did not have much of an impression of Taylor.
She would be suppressed sooner or later due to her soft temper.
Taylor was just mediocre. She was not as decisive, shrewd, and capable as Cindy Yeager.
However, this cooperation was beneficial to Ferguson Corporation. Taylor’s straight character also made it more conducive for them to work together.
Everyone drank a lot of wine at the banquet.
When the banquet was over, Eric was waiting for the driver on the side of the road.
The wind blew away the stench of alcohol from his body.
At some point, Taylor arrived next to Eric and smiled with ease.
“Mr. Ferguson, I hope we’ll have a pleasant cooperation this time.”
Eric tilted his head and nodded lightly.
“Do you need a ride home?”
