The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Boss

Chapter 2576 Can’t You See It?

Selena was wearing a denim skirt and shirt that were covered with dust in the afternoon.

Although she had touched up her makeup before going to Chance’s school, everyone judged her based on her outfit. No matter how good-looking Selena was, she did not attract too much attention.

She could leave after listening to the teacher for a while.

Chance performed very well in school. He was also too mature and quiet.

Thus, the teacher was not worried about Chance’s academic performance, but his mental health.

When Chance first transferred to their school, he did not like to talk. He was still the same.

In short, Chance’s family did not pay enough attention to him.

Selena nodded after listening to the teacher and left with Chance.

Some problems could not be solved by an outsider, but Selena would convey the teacher’s words to Eric.

Chance ran over happily when he saw Selena.

Selena reached out and took his school bag while Chance happily went over to hold her hand.

“Aunt Selena, it’ll be great if you can pick me up every day!”

Selena smiled. “I hope so too, but I’m cleaning up my new bar, so I don’t have much time. You can come and play at my place next time. You can wait for me there and we can go home together.”

“Awesome!” Chance skipped while following Selena.

When the two of them got into the car, Eric called.

As Chaz said, Eric’s calls were getting a bit too frequent.

Selena was a little uncomfortable with the frequency of his calls.

“I was just about to go home. What’s wrong?”

Eric was silent for a while before he said, “Are you still in school? Don’t go home. I’ll ask the driver to pick you up.”

“We’re just going for dinner. Why do I need the driver to pick me up?”

“I have something to tell you.”

Eric paused. “Don’t drive, just wait there.”

Selena glanced at Chance, who was next to her, and responded, “Just as well, I have something to tell you too.”

She hung up the phone and looked back at Chance with a smile.

“Your daddy is coming to pick us up and wants us to wait here. I’ll park the car nearby then.”

Chance nodded.

Eric did not go in person and sent his driver there.

Selena was a little speechless, but she still smiled and said hello. Then, she urged Chance to get into the car.

The driver seemed to be in high spirits, chatting and laughing with Selena along the way, trying to make them happy.

However, Selena was so tired that she was in no mood to chat. Thus, she just brushed him off perfunctorily with a few sentences.

The driver brought them to a resort manor in the suburbs. This manor was not open to the public. Only acquaintances could make reservations here. Outsiders would have no way to enter.

The car drove inside.

The sun was setting.

The decorative lights inside were bright.

The grass was a lush green, and the air was filled with the sweet scent of freshly cut grass.

Selena looked around and saw many people talking and laughing in an open space.

Some of them looked familiar because she had seen them at Eric’s office.

Selena froze slightly. Did Eric invite everyone in the company?

The roses that were planted at the last minute on the side of the road emitted a strong fragrance, which led all the way to the crowd.

Selena got out of the car and frowned slightly.

“Is it a company event? Is that why Eric wants me to come for dinner?”

Besides this, Selena could not think of any other reason.

The driver smiled meaningfully.

“You’ll know when you go and have a look.”

Selena smiled. “Alright, thank you. Chance, come on.”

Chance happily got out of the car and took Selena’s hand. However, he was soon distracted by the surrounding scenery.

Selena walked along the flower path and saw some lights flickering in the center. It was as if a small enclosed area was the main event venue.

She was thinking about whether she should also make something like this in the yard of her new bar.

Mitchell waved at her from the front, looking very excited.

Many senior executives in the company were there. Although Selena did not know them very well, she sometimes heard their names during Eric’s conference calls. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Judging by their clothes and looks, Selena guessed that they must be the senior management.

Eric always detested Merlin Cheney, the bald vice president who liked to wear wigs. At this moment, Merlin was standing there with a glass of wine in his hand. The bangs on his wig were swaying in the wind, which was quite funny.

However, Eric was not there. Where was he?

Selena paused. She forced a smile and walked over.

She treated herself as Mitchell’s friend as she thought that no one would care if she joined.

If Eric allowed her to attend such an occasion, it meant that other people also brought their family members.

Thinking of this, Selena smiled a little more.

She wanted to be an invisible person.

As a result, as soon as she got there, the people around her consciously took a few steps back.

The lights on the tents were purposely set up to be soft and gentle. Selena’s eyes flickered slightly, and she watched as Eric came out of the tent.

Eric was still dressed in his usual black shirt and black trousers. He blended into the night, but there was a rare tenderness in his eyes.

His black eyes were fixated on Selena. The corners of his lips curled up as he held a bouquet of delicate champagne roses in his hand.

Selena’s heart suddenly sank, and she paused in her footsteps.

She really wanted to ignore the envious gazes of the people around her, but those gazes were like thorns. She could not ignore them.

It was precisely because of these gazes that Selena suddenly had a bad premonition.

Selena still maintained a superficial smile on her face, looking beautiful and vivid.

However, she cursed at Eric several times in her heart.

Selena thought of turning around and running away. However, what she was afraid of happened. Eric walked toward her with the flowers.

Eric was not even wearing sunglasses.

His eyes were bright and completely healed, but Selena did not even know.

Was it because he had been hiding it from her?

Everyone looked at this scene in dismay.

Mitchell was happy, emotional, and also a little worried.

Eric walked to Selena, stopped, and looked at her affectionately. He felt a little nervous and excited.

It felt as if his heart was suddenly filled with colorful bubbles. He was so elated that he did not know how to express it.

Eric wanted to keep himself calm, but when he took the final step to Selena, he could not stay calm.

He had never been so nervous even when he was negotiating a project worth hundreds of millions of dollars for the first time.

This was his first marriage proposal.

Selena smiled slightly and lowered her voice when she said, “Mr. Ferguson, what kind of tricks are you playing?”

Eric looked at her intently, took a deep breath, and handed over the flowers.

Selena did not take the flowers and just looked at him with a smile.

She was not about to cooperate with him.

Eric paused. “Can’t you see it?”

He smiled and was about to get down on one knee.

Selena’s heart skipped a beat. She quickly pulled him up, which stunned Eric.

The people around looked at this scene in puzzlement.

Selena did not want to embarrass Eric in front of so many people, so she lowered her voice and said, “I know. We’ll talk about it when we get home. There are too many people now.”

However, Eric grabbed her hand, stuffed the flowers into her arms, and said with a smile, “I purposely invited more people. These are the middle and upper management of Ferguson Corporation. Selena, I called them here to witness something.”

“Eric, that’s enough.”
