Chance was still upstairs and recovering from the shock. How could Eric still send Selena home at this time?
Selena even felt guilty for it.
She did not want to receive Eric’s help anymore.
Eric looked at her coldly and stood outside stubbornly.
The driver dared not drive at this time for fear of bumping into Eric.
Neither side was willing to take a step back.
Cindy, who was sitting on the side, gradually became gloomy.
She felt cold and was enraged by this scene.
Cindy would be a fool if she still could not see how Eric treated Selena differently.
She secretly clenched her fists and sneered.
Cindy did not look directly at Eric and only glanced at Selena as she said impatiently, “Ms. Nelson, you saw that I was drenched earlier, so I’m not feeling well and have to go to the hospital. I’m afraid I won’t be able to give you a ride back.”
Selena pursed her lips and glared at Eric.
She blamed him for sabotaging her ride home.
Thus, Selena had no choice but to get out of the car.
Although she did not like Cindy, she hated Eric more.
When Selena got out of the car, Eric took a step back and did not care that Cindy was leaving.
The police could not arrest Cindy as a suspect until the investigation was done.
They only took Hannah away because she poured gasoline near the pool.
As for Cindy, Hannah’s testimony was needed to get her involved.
Whether the Yeagers would continue to shut Hannah up in the future was another question.
Eric did not want to continue.
Selena stood there and took a deep breath.
The cold wind blew over, and the scorching sun was blocked by the clouds, so it was a little chilly.
Selena shrugged and looked at him.
“Mr. Ferguson, what do you want? I can’t even leave now?”
Eric also did not know what he wanted to do.
Selena scolded him unscrupulously just now. If he acted nonchalantly, it would be weird.
However, when he saw her getting into the Yeagers’ car, a dangerous thought arose in his mind.
He knew what Cindy was capable of, especially at this juncture.
Thus, he did not want to watch Selena become Cindy’s punching bag for no reason.
Suddenly, Selena covered her mouth and sneezed.
Eric frowned, glanced at Selena, and finally took a step back to keep a distance from her as if he was afraid of being infected by her.
Hah...
Selena looked at the sky speechlessly.
She was sure that Eric definitely did not ask her to stay because he liked her.
Eric’s voice was cold.
“Let Mitchell take you back. I’m just warning you to keep a distance from the Yeager family. Don’t go out and talk nonsense.”
Selena understood.
It turned out that Eric was afraid Selena would tell Cindy about what she knew.
Hah...
Eric would also be afraid at times!
Selena took a deep breath. “Okay.”
Eric did not say anything, turned around, and walked into the villa.
In less than a minute, Mitchell came out in a hurry. “Ms. Nelson, shall we go?”
The corners of Selena’s mouth twitched, and her complexion improved slightly.
