Chapter 2546 Can’t Explain Clearly
Harvey paused, and Selena quickly said, “It’s okay, Harvey. I’ll go over and say hello, then I’ll come back to you later.”
As she spoke, she hurriedly turned around, not wanting to put Harvey in a difficult position.
Mr. Griffin said a few more words to Harvey before turning around and following Selena.
Lara, who was next to Harvey, squinted her eyes and looked at Harvey suspiciously.
“Are Mr. Ferguson and Ms. Nelson not acquainted with each other? They don’t look like they’re strangers!”
Selena dared to diss Eric before, and now, Eric even wanted to teach Selena golf.
This could only mean that Eric was interested in Selena. Eric either knew Selena from the beginning or perhaps he wanted to get to know her.
Harvey recalled that Selena left the banquet last time, and Eric chased after her.
At that time, Harvey did not think much about it. Now that he thought about it, it seemed odd.
However, this was not the basis for him to discuss Selena’s private affairs behind her back.
He smiled and said with a relaxed tone, “I don’t know. Shall we continue?”
“Okay…”
——
Selena stood there with her arms folded. She looked at Eric lightly.
“Eric, what do you want? I told you that we should pretend not to know each other in public. Why are you looking for me?”
Eric swung the club with an exemplary posture and scored a hole-in-one.
He was standing straight and tall and looked lean and clean. His daily exercise routine was not in vain.
Selena used to be deeply fascinated by his figure.
However, she was quick to forget about him and was not addicted to anything.
Selena just wanted to take this opportunity to clarify with Eric.
Eric paused. He looked so handsome, and his voice was a little nonchalant and relaxed.
“I didn’t say I knew you, nor did I ask you out alone. Who here will suspect us?”
His light tone hit her heart.
He smiled faintly and sounded a little cold.
“Besides, what is our relationship? I thought you’d gotten over it. I didn’t expect you to remember it so clearly.”
Selena’s chest was slightly stuffy.
Eric’s light questioning tone seemed to contain a bit of grievance.
Did he feel wronged?
How ridiculous!
“You’re right. We have nothing to do with each other. I’m leaving then.”
Selena turned to leave.
Eric suddenly reached out to grab her arm and pulled her into his embrace.
His warm and faint scent smelled good.
The sudden familiarity made Selena feel dazed for a moment.
Eric’s eyelashes trembled slightly, and he forcibly restrained her struggles.
“Don’t move, or others will see us. Then, we won’t be able to explain ourselves.”
He seemed to be more afraid of not being able to explain their relationship than she was.
Selena paused and calmed herself.
Eric stuffed the golf club into her hand and hugged her from behind.
He was really teaching her how to play.
However, only he knew that his mind was straying. Her delicate skin was so familiar to him, which made his heart settle down after more than three months.
It was like he found an oasis in a desert.
It felt like she still belonged to him.
Selena did not dare to move around, lest others would find out that the two of them were arguing. If so, some rumors would definitely spread.
Thus, she gritted her teeth and endured it.
His gaze was fixed on her side profile, which was delicate and succulent. She was even more gorgeous and brighter than before.
She used to be a dazzling rose with thorns, which did not stop people from admiring her beauty.
Selena aimed at the hole and stood in the proper posture.
However, Eric did not move at all. He did not plan to do anything.
She stared at him eagerly.
“Hurry up. You can let me go too, then I’ll play by myself!”
Eric was only going to drag her down.
Eric took a deep breath, held Selena’s hand tightly, and swung his club hard.
The ball went into the hole as if it had eyes.
Selena was shocked when she saw it.
When she was practicing with Harvey just now, they were helpless and thought that it was very difficult.
How did Eric aim the golf ball so easily?
The man seemed to be unsurprised and loosened his grip slightly.
Mr. Griffin rushed over and applauded.
“I knew that Ms. Nelson just needs a good teacher. Ms. Nelson, you’ve got a good bargain! Mr. Ferguson is a master of golf. All of us can’t beat him!”
Eric chuckled. He was very satisfied with the compliment.
It was not at all an exaggeration.
Selena did not want to disrespect him in front of others, so she just smiled faintly.
“When I play cards, I’m also too embarrassed to beat my boss!”
She implied that other people let Eric win on purpose just to get in his good graces.
Mr. Griffin laughed loudly.
“You’re wrong, Ms. Nelson. Mr. Ferguson is really good at golf. He doesn’t need us to give in. Even if we put all our energy into the game, there is no way we can win against him.”
Eric looked at Selena coldly.
He seemed dissatisfied with how she looked down on him.
Selena swung the golf club in her hand indifferently.
Over there, Harvey and Lara were going separate ways too.
Harvey taught Lara several times, but she never succeeded.
Harvey was helpless, so he could only blame it on his teaching skills and wanted to find a professional coach for Lara.
Lara agreed so that Harvey could not see through her intentions.
Harvey went to the other side to rest, while Lara was still standing there practicing.
However, it was clear she was bored and uninterested in golf.
Another actress called Lara, and Lara happily found an excuse to leave.
“Come on, Ms. Nelson. Let’s continue.”
Eric looked at Selena seriously.
Selena’s eyes widened. Was this not over yet?
Mr. Griffin nodded at the side. “Mr. Ferguson is very patient. If it were me, I wouldn’t want to teach a newbie…”
Eric stood up helplessly and chuckled lightly.
“I don’t have a choice. Since we have already started, we should end it on a good note.”
Selena pursed her lips.
If Mr. Griffin was not here, Selena would definitely walk away.
However, if she left when Mr. Griffin was around, everyone would definitely doubt their relationship.
Some of Eric’s friends were also teaching the other cast members how to play.
Thus, Eric and Selena did not look out of place.
“Ms. Nelson, seize this opportunity! If you hire a personal coach, you’ll be charged by the hour. Moreover, you won’t be able to find a coach with Mr. Ferguson’s skill!”
Selena walked over and took the golf club with a half-smile.
Just as Eric was about to come up to hold her hand, Selena took a step back.
“Mr. Ferguson, you’ve taught me well just now. I want to try it myself.”
Eric paused, then took a step back.
“Okay, go ahead.”
Selena breathed a sigh of relief. Then, she got into a stance that Eric and Harvey taught her earlier.
She had to aim and make sure her arms were straight.
Then, she swung the club hard.
The ball missed the hole and rolled off to the side.
Mr. Griffin could not help but laugh out loud. He did not care about Selena’s feelings.
Eric also smiled but did not laugh out loud as a show of respect.
For a moment, Selena wished that she could find a crack in the ground to hide in.
Eric’s friend was next to them, and he said with a smile, “Mr. Ferguson, since the kid you taught missed the hole, you have to pick up the ball!”
