Chapter 2483

At least until Eric figured out his feelings, he had to keep Selena.

His voice was slightly hoarse and magnetic.

In this small room, it was indeed easy to sway people's hearts.

It sounded romantic, but Selena raised her eyebrows and laughed after she got over the shock.

"Special? Am I special because I look like Nicole? Or is it because I have repeatedly rejected you?"

As soon as she asked this, the air froze instantly.

When Eric heard that name, his heart suddenly shrank. His expression also changed subtly.

Selena had always known about him and Nicole, so how could she stay indifferent?

However, why should Eric care if Selena minded it?

Eric's heart was already a mess. However, to Selena, his silence was an acquiescence.

Look, Cindy Yeager was right.

Selena was just a stand-in.

How could such a vulgar thing happen to her?

Selena smiled as if she had seen through him and took a deep breath.

She even felt sorry for Eric, who was so deeply in love with Nicole.

However, Eric's love was not that pure after all.

Eric pursed his lips and stared at her. He did not want to let go of any slight movement.

"No."

His voice was slightly dry. He clenched his fingers and took a step forward.

"It's not because of that."

Even so, Eric took too long to answer. Selena was not a fool, so how could she believe him?

Everyone could say what was nice to hear.

Eric was short of words for a while. He could not describe the feeling in his heart, and he fell into a predicament.

He frowned and was very frustrated. He felt suffocated as if a cotton ball was stuffed in his chest, making it hard to breathe. Selena and Nicole were clearly different.

When Eric met Selena for the first time, he felt that Selena and Nicole were somewhat similar at certain moments.

However, after getting to know Selena, he found that they did not have many similarities.

At least, Nicole would never be like Selena and yell at him regardless of the occasion.

Nicole would leave room for others. She was extremely gentle, aloof, and restrained.

Seeing his complicated gaze, Selena did not want to get entangled in this mess any longer.

If they continued this topic, things would get ugly. Selena did not want Eric to think that she cared about who he loved.

"I understand. I know you don't like me, but you don't hate me. I don't want to compromise. I've already married someone I didn't love back then. If I get married again, I want to be with someone who loves me, like Zachary. He's infatuated with me. What's more, the two of us don't see eye to eye on a lot of things and always quarrel when we meet. I'm not the kind of person who will flatter you and do whatever you say, so you should find someone else!"

Selena analyzed the situation clearly and explained all her reasons to Eric.

They were basically two people on separate paths.

Eric's eyes darkened in an instant. He grabbed her wrist, yanked her onto the bed, and pinned her beneath him.

He held her arms and looked at her exposed delicate shoulders and collarbone. His mind was a mess, and he suddenly thought of the alluring scene that he saw when he opened the door earlier.

His throat moved slightly, and his eyes showed a bit of restraint and forbearance.

"So, you just can't let go of that boy toy, huh?"

Selena frowned and thought that Eric was stubborn.

She raised her head and simply said, "Yes, I'm interested in him! He and I are a match made in heaven. I'm not an idiot to just settle with you. I will never be with you!"

Eric's gaze dimmed and became inscrutable, like the temporary calm on the surface of the sea before a bloody storm was unleashed.

His heart clenched, and he felt like he was losing something important. His scalp went numb.

Last time, it was because of Nicole.

This time, it was because of this woman under him.

Eric was even more determined not to let Selena go so easily.

He pursed his lips. His whole body was tense, and his chest heaved up and down. He was so agitated by her words that he almost lost control.

Eric suddenly lowered his head and kissed her bright red lips that he had been staring at for a long time.

A few seconds passed.

Selena came to her senses and resisted violently. She did not expect that someone like Eric would dare to force himself on her.

She pushed him, but he was unmoved.

He could easily control her. She was harmless like a little chick flapping its wings.

While they were fighting each other, Eric finally bit her.

Selena's lips were bitten, and she could taste blood.

She was bleeding.

Her face turned red with anger, and she slapped Eric on the face.

Eric did not dodge either.

The slap was extraordinarily loud.

Her palm was also slightly numb from the slap.

Selena was breathing heavily, and her eyes were slightly red.

Eric paused for a moment. He lowered his eyelashes to hide his scarlet eyes and helped her tidy up her messy clothes to cover her delicate shoulders.

He also covered her thin bra straps that were accidentally exposed on her shoulders. This sight instantly burned his eyes and aroused his desires.

Eric stared at her with a bit of lingering affection in his dark and deep eyes. It took him a long time before he spoke again.

"I'm serious. If you become my woman, I won't treat you badly. I can do what that boy toy can't do. If you have concerns, we can sign an agreement. I can do whatever you want."

Selena turned her head sideways and stared at him angrily with watery eyes. She was unwilling and surprised.

"Don't you understand when I've already put it so bluntly?"

Eric chuckled. The laugh came from his chest.

He stretched out his hand and slowly caressed her bleeding lips, and had a bloodthirsty sharpness and chill in his eyes.

His voice was still gentle as he said, "I understand, but you didn't understand me. I'm not asking for your opinion, Selena. I may not get everything I want, but I will definitely try my best to get it. At least for now, I still have this capability."

Selena's eyes trembled slightly. She could not hide the shock on her face.

"What about Nicole..."

How could he make such a blatant threat?

Wasn't Nicole the person he wanted most but could not get?

"You're different from her. Nicole can use all her strength to fight against me, so I won't dare to touch her, but you can't."

What he said was cruel and true.

This was the harsh reality.

Selena immediately pursed her lips tightly. Her eyes were cold and bloodshot, with a bit of grievance.

Her moist red lips turned white from her biting down on it.

She looked like a poor and defeated cat.

In the face of power, she was indeed too careless.

Eric never used his power to force her. She had also never received any unfair treatment from him.

That was why she took it for granted that they were the same kind of people. He just had more money than her.
