Chapter 2584 Especially You
Mitchell glanced at Lara lightly and flashed a mocking smile.
“If the media present today can speak out about the instigator, Ferguson Corporation will not pursue your responsibility. But if you interview and film anyone without our permission, we will sue you for leaking commercial secrets. Especially you, Lara.”
Mitchell said the last sentence sternly.
Lara’s body trembled. Her face was extremely pale.
Just as she was about to say something, Mitchell turned his head and said to the person next to him.
“You took all the photos, right? Call the police and distribute the lawyer’s letter. Make everything public, and don’t forget Lara.”
After he finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Mitchell’s temperament and character were no different from Eric’s.
Lara was startled.
Suddenly, she could not say a word. It was too late to regret her actions.
Everything was sorted out quickly.
Upstairs, the office was in a frenzy.
The employees of Ferguson Corporation all knew who Eric’s fiancee was.
The middle and upper management had participated in the marriage proposal and described the ceremony as a romantic surprise.
Eric was completely different from everyone’s memory of him.
Selena was their surefire lady boss.
Eric and Selena went upstairs.
Selena’s heart could not calm down and was beating more violently than when she was downstairs.
Her mind was blank and in a mess. She did not know how to react.
Lara was so aggressive that Selena thought she could not escape.
However, Eric appeared and took her away openly.
Fiancee and the lady boss of Ferguson Corporation?
Selena no longer thought about those titles that were so far out of reach.
When Eric came out of the conference room, the public relations department was on standby. They started to control the situation online.
Eric made a few phone calls. Thus, other platforms minimized the negative impact that this trending topic brought to the couple.
The stock price fluctuated, but it was normal, and Eric could bear it.
Since things had gotten to this point, Eric felt that there was nothing he could not handle.
Even if the stock price fell sharply, it was just a series of numbers.
Eric was a little annoyed why he hesitated for so long and regretted that he valued profits over Selena in the past.
Compared with interests, Selena was more important.
Eric was confused back then, but he found his direction and was firm about it.
The assistant brought over a cup of coffee, and Eric took it inside.
Selena was sitting on the sofa, looking at her phone expressionlessly. She scrolled up and down irritably, then turned it off and threw it aside.
She was not so calm.
Eric twitched the corner of his mouth, walked over, and handed her the coffee.
The fragrant smell made her calm down a little, and she raised her eyes slightly.
“Are they gone yet?”
Eric pursed his lips and replied, “Mitchell will take care of it, but you can’t leave for now. Wait for me. We can go back together at night.”
Selena lowered her eyes and pursed her lips slightly.
“Eric, what should we do now?”
Their relationship was exposed. Even though she knew that Eric was trying to help her out, she was not mentally prepared.
She was at a loss and did not know what to do.
What should they do next?
Eric sighed and sat beside Selena with a somewhat serious and dignified expression.
He put his arm around her shoulder and rubbed it gently.
“Selena, I’ll take care of everything. Trust me this once, and don’t worry about the rest.”
Lara was a curveball. Eric did not think that Lara would dare to speak out. He was too careless.
Of course, Eric would teach that ignorant woman a lesson.
Selena opened her mouth but did not know what to say. Her eyes were slightly red.
Suddenly, she felt that the blood all over her body was hot.
She knew that she had implicated Eric.
If Eric did not show up, Ferguson Corporation would not be implicated.
Even if Selena was scolded, it did no physical harm.
Since the situation had become like this, could she and Eric continue their relationship?
Selena realized she was a tangled and divided woman.
She wanted everything. How embarrassing and hypocritical!
However, she dared not admit it.
Eric coaxed Selena for a while and started working on other things.
Seeing that Selena’s emotions had gradually calmed down, Eric suggested that they watch a movie.
Selena did not ask to leave and obediently waited for Eric to get off work.
An hour later, the people from the public relations department knocked on the door and came in. They glanced politely at Selena, nodded slightly, then looked at Eric and said seriously, “Mr. Ferguson, the people in the company have already discussed it. The stock price of Ferguson Corporation at home and abroad has fluctuated greatly. In order to minimize the impact, the best way now is to announce your marital news with Ms. Nelson..com Getting married, making it public, and facing it directly can subvert many hidden dangers.”
The office was quiet and cold.
After a long time, Eric said in a hoarse voice, “Are you sure?”
“Yes. This is the most suitable option. Other plans would not achieve such an effect. At the same time as you announce your marital news, our company’s platform will also launch an initiative called, “Declare war on the world in the name of love”.
Just listening to it made one excited.
Eric looked at Selena deeply.
Selena tilted her head slightly and listened carefully.
She hesitated.
Lara wanted her to fail in this predicament, but she did not expect that Eric would dare to pull Selena out of the trap.
Everything was getting out of control.
Selena was moved. She was also a little surprised and shocked.
However, these were not enough for her to lose herself.
Selena underestimated Eric.
He was a responsible and straightforward man.
Eric would not hide behind her back at this time and let others slander her.
However, the consequence of this was marriage.
It was unexpected.
Selena was also unwilling.
She did not want to tie Eric down for the rest of his life because of this. She also did not want him to settle with her when he could certainly find a better person in the future.
Even though it was beneficial to Selena and Eric, in the long run, it was obvious that the interests of Ferguson Corporation would be severely damaged.
Selena felt that if she agreed, she would be taking advantage of Eric, and it would be unfair to him.
Moreover, I should not agree to marriage.
She had a carefree and easygoing personality, but at this moment, she felt like a cocoon that was all wrapped up.
She knew that this matter was of great importance and that it would seriously affect Eric’s career.
Selena could not afford the consequences.
Thus, when she heard the proposal from the head of the public relations department, her heart skipped a beat, and she lowered her head in silence.
From Eric’s point of view, Selena’s body was enveloped in the sunshine. She looked quiet, gentle, peaceful, and distant. It was rare to see Selena looking so quiet and beautiful.
Selena had always been energetic, tenacious, and unyielding.
