Chapter 2530 Withstand the Test
“Tell CK Corporation that if it doesn’t affect Ms. Caldwell, we can use the second plan.”
Eric took his anger out on the netizens.
Since he did not want to be taken advantage of, he might as well start making money from them.
Mitchell nodded. “Yes, sir.”
Eric’s decision was based on the company’s overall situation. There was nothing to criticize about it.
In the afternoon, the hot topic gradually lost its popularity.
Everyone’s interest in Eric’s personal affairs gradually died down.
However, just when everyone calmed down, Ferguson Corporation and CK Corporation jointly launched the focus of their cooperation.
For a while, everyone was talking about Eric and Taylor again.
Not only that, some people even made up some romantic short stories about them. Some people also photoshopped their wedding pictures.
However, neither party responded to the relationship.
However, the speculation online was in full swing.
Not only that, the stock prices of Ferguson Corporation and CK Corporation had risen nicely.
The final result of this matter was that both parties got to make a lot of money.
Everyone in Ferguson Corporation was filled with joy and wished that Eric would marry Taylor immediately.
Eric did not have much emotion.
Although he won this battle, he felt a little awkward.
He also felt frustrated and uneasy.
Eric looked at the time.
It was 5:30 pm, time to get off work.
Eric took his things and left.
Mitchell was not surprised by this.
In the car, Eric called the servant, intending to ask about Selena.
He wondered if she was at home, or if he should go to the bar to look for her.
Eric finally understood the source of his uneasiness.
Was it because of Selena?
They had an argument a few days ago. Eric even chose to go ahead with the second plan in a fit of anger, so Selena would definitely misunderstand when she sees it.
Eric had to go back and explain it to her as soon as possible.
The servant picked up the call.
“Ms. Nelson left at noon. She looked fine. She was humming a song and looked to be in a good mood. She said that she was going to the bar first and asked us not to cook steak at night because you don’t like it.”
Eric raised his eyebrows when he heard that.
Was that really Selena?
However, the servant’s vivid description did not seem like a lie.
It was most likely true.
Eric suddenly felt less uneasy and smiled slowly.
Selena knew him well.
Their relationship could withstand any test.
See, Selena would not get jealous because of this small gossip.
She was a generous and considerate woman.
If Cindy had not provoked Selena last time, she probably would not have quarreled with him.
It was Cindy’s fault, not Selena’s!
Eric took a deep breath and immediately felt refreshed.
He felt that he could go back to the office and work overtime for a few hours.
However, the driver already understood and drove in the direction of the bar.
The driver seemed to be in a hurry.
It looked like the driver was anxious for him.
Eric was speechless.
When they arrived at the bar, there were not many people.
There was slow cello music playing.
It was beautiful.
Today felt different.
A poker table was placed on the side, and several people were playing mahjong at the moment.
One of them was Selena.
Selena was elegant, and her smile was simply pleasant.
One of the people next to her was Chaz, the other was a musician, and another player was a regular.
Chaz looked at Selena with sympathy from time to time, which earned Selena’s glare.
The regular and the musician did not notice.
The regular was a well-known figure in the media. She went to the bar often, so she was also familiar with Selena.
She held her cards while she answered the phone. She could not help but smile. After hanging up the phone, she shared today’s events with the group.
“Have you heard about today’s hot topic? It’s about Eric Ferguson and Taylor Caldwell. Tsk tsk, it’s probably true.”
Selena put down a card.
“That’s great! They look so good together, better than most couples in TV shows. It’s a beautiful picture.”
Selena sighed and admired the photo. She recalled that photo and thought that Eric did not look like that usually.
Eric looked like a perfect gentleman.
Eric, who was walking to the door, froze immediately when he heard this.
He did not go in immediately, and he had mixed feelings.
The musician opposite Chaz also smiled.
“Yeah! I also think they’re a good match. They’re a gorgeous couple and a match made in heaven! Speaking of which, Mr. Ferguson has been to the bar a few times before. Why don’t we ask him next time if it’s true?”
Selena could not help but laugh.
“Why? Do you want to prepare a wedding gift for him?”
“Boss, Eric won’t care about my small gift. I just want to ask how he managed to pursue such a beautiful girl!”
The media person next to him said, “Needless to say, birds of the same feather flock together. Maybe they already have some contact in private. I’ll believe it even if they registered their marriage abroad. There are too many interests involved in the marriage of two corporations, so there’s no way they will announce it so simply. If it’s handled well, it’ll be a strong alliance. If it’s not handled well, it can only be kept under wraps.”
Selena did not deny it. She smiled as if this had nothing to do with her.
“Eric has good tastes. Ms. Caldwell has a better temperament than most women he had been with before. Even I think that she’s so beautiful.”
Selena shook her head as if she regretted it.
Chaz was stunned. Selena immediately put down her cards.
“Straight flush! I won! Hahahahaha…”
Chaz said, “You can still laugh?”
Selena glared at him. “Why can’t I laugh?”
The media person asked, “Yeah, why can’t she laugh? Does Mr. Ferguson come here often? If he’s really married, you have to tell me the gossip!”
“Don’t worry. I’ll definitely share it with you. If I were Eric, I would also marry someone like Ms. Caldwell!”
Selena said this as if nothing was wrong. She then took away the $10 that she won.
Everyone could not help but tease her to be a money grubber for collecting money so fast.
Soon, more people showed up at the bar, so it was getting inconvenient to continue playing.
Chaz stood up and was ready to put everything away.
As a result, when he raised his eyes, he saw Eric standing at the door with a gloomy face. Chaz wondered what Eric was thinking.
Chaz was startled and quickly said, “Mr. Ferguson, when did you arrive?”
When the group heard this, they looked back.
The media person said in shock, “OMG! Mr. Ferguson really does like to hang out in bars!”
Selena smiled perfunctorily.
Eric glanced coldly at the media person.
The media person realized that she was talking too much and immediately shut up.
Eric glanced at Selena and immediately walked upstairs.
“I have an appointment in the private room.”
Selena breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid that he would act like they were close in front of everyone.
“Look, Mr. Ferguson still has social engagements after work. He’s not here to have fun!”
The musician believed it and nodded in agreement.
Selena looked at Chaz. “Send over two fruit platters to Mr. Ferguson and his friends.”
