The music downstairs was deafening.
However, Eric and Selena felt isolated in Selena’s room. It was so quiet and stuffy that they could even hear each other’s heartbeat.
Selena could not continue to deny it because Eric would definitely get to the bottom of it.
When Selena thought about that woman and that $300,000 IOU, she suddenly made a decision.
She raised her head to look at Eric with clear eyes and a flattering fake smile without a trace of sincerity.
“Since you said so, then I can only agree. Yes, in fact, this is my purpose… I have admired you for a long time!”
Selena felt guilty after saying this.
Her throat felt itchy, so she covered her mouth and lowered her head to cough.
This was probably the price of lying.
Her face flushed slightly as she coughed.
Eric just looked like he knew it all along.
It was exactly as he expected!
Although Selena showed her dislike of him in every possible way and was verbally abusive, it was only to attract his attention.
Now that he exposed her, there was no need to hide it anymore.
Many women confessed their love to Eric before, so he was always placed on a pedestal.
Eric stared at her as if he could read her mind and snorted coldly.
“I knew that you didn’t have good intentions.”
Selena resisted the urge to curse at him and nodded as she stood there obediently.
She kept telling herself to put up with him.
Eric glanced at her coldly, then turned around and went to the bedroom.
He glanced around at the messy and unorganized bedroom. The lazy vibe in the room was not to his preference.
Eric lifted his foot and went into the bathroom. He felt uncomfortable, sticky, and greasy because of the wine on his body. It was unbearable.
Selena looked over in shock.
She thought Eric would leave in anger, but he actually went inside.
How bizarre!
Selena noticed that Eric’s mind worked differently compared to others.
She thought that he hated women who had delusions about him.
Why did he not warn her to stop her wishful thinking?
Selena’s head was numb. She shuddered and followed him in.
She pushed the door open and saw Eric taking off his shirt because he did not lock the door. The stains on his shirt were obvious.
The muscles on Eric’s body were defined and lean. He had broad shoulders and a narrow waist with defined lines. He was tall and handsome, and his figure was amazing.
Selena’s bathroom was narrow and cramped enough.
Selena thought that she was immune to seeing men’s bodies because many drunk men in the bar liked to take off their clothes and dance. Some of them had youthful and lean bodies, while some were fat and repulsive.
She used to be indifferent to all of that.
However, her blood suddenly started to surge through her body when she saw Eric standing there, half-naked.
This reaction made her feel frightened. She trembled, and her face turned red.
Eric immediately turned around as if he was afraid that she would take advantage of him with another glance. His tone was also mocking her.
“Selena, are you that horny? I’m not interested in someone like you, so you’d better stop wasting your time on me. I will never fall in love with women like you!”
His tone was resolute, as if he was afraid that Selena would pounce on him impulsively.
Eric was not at all interested in women who offered themselves to him. Instead, he was rather repulsed by that.
Thus, he spoke bluntly to stop Selena’s ideas.
Selena paused. The heat on her face instantly cooled down as if she was dunked into a tub of ice water.
