Chapter 245
“At school? She got a rich boyfriend and is now pregnant with his child! Her father-in-law and I are talking about her taking time off from school. She will resume her studies after giving birth.”
“Does Carson know about this? What is his opinion on this?”
“I told him today that what’s done is done. What else could he do? He could only agree.” Mrs. Boyer paused for a moment. “Lily, Eliza is my only child and Carson’s only sister. Her father-in-law and I don’t have any money, but Eliza’s future husband comes from a wealthy family. We cannot allow Eliza to marry into their family with nothing. I can only pin my hopes on you and Carson.”
“Yes, Carson can help with the dowry. Don’t worry. He won’t let Eliza look bad.” Smiling on the surface, I thought it was. ridiculous and hoped this whole scandal disaster could be exposed soon.
“Lily, I’m going to rest in my room for now!” When Jolene saw that I was discussing Eliza’s dowry with Mrs. Boyer, she informed us and went back to her room.
Curious to check out what the shameless pair was up to, I casually chatted with Mrs. Boyer before excusing himself and heading back to my room.
After closing the door, I grabbed my phone to log into Carson’s Messenger account, but suddenly I got a Facebook notification. When I clicked on it, I realized that it was a Bycho Client friend request.
Why would he even consider adding me on Facebook? Is he so free? I didn’t want to add Eric, but I was worried about boring him by doing so.
After all, he was a petty person. If he played a trick on me again due to this conflict, I would only suffer more. I hesitated a bit before adding it and soon got a smiley sticker from him. Not knowing what to reply, I sent him another sticker, to which he replied, ‘What are you doing?
I replied, ‘I just had dinner.
‘I haven’t eaten yet. Why does this sound like an attention seeker?
‘This afternoon. You must have dinner soon. You don’t want to develop stomach problems. I had no choice but to express my polite
concern.
‘I understood. I’m having dinner now, she replied dryly. Thinking this was the end of our conversation, I was surprised when he texted me again. ‘Go straight to my office tomorrow for work.
“Whereby?”
“Of course I have something important. I informed President Smith. You can go to work first thing in the morning.
As he had mentioned it, I couldn’t refuse and just replied with an ‘okay’.
I am going for lunch. Goodbye!”
“Goodbye!” After ending the conversation, I grabbed my phone expressionlessly. Eric specially added me on Facebook just for that? He could totally turn me on!
I wanted to leave the Facebook app, but curiosity got the better of me and I wanted to see what was on Eric’s profile timeline. Could he be sharing posts similar to our female selfies, luxury brand photos, and friends’ photos?
I clicked on his username only to find a blank profile timeline.

Did he block me from seeing his profile? I thought it odd because there was no good reason for him to add me on Facebook if he wanted to stop me from seeing his posts.

Chapter 245
I suddenly noticed that her Facebook profile was set as default. Finally, I realized that he must have recently signed up for an account. I chuckled at the thought, but another question immediately popped into my mind. Am I your first friend on Facebook?
I exited the app and logged onto Carson’s Messenger, where the shameless pair began chatting with each other. He bombarded Jolene with a series of questions: Has her brother been in a car accident? What happened? Where did he get the money for his new car?”
