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!”

The readers' comments on the novel: The Divorced Billionaire Heiress
I liked this book and wanted to read it. As I have moved into the chapters, I have found that it is unreadable due to typographical errors, including sentences that are incomplete, complete gibberish, missing elements. This is not just some misspelled words. It is actually unreadable. If you decide to fix this, let me know and I will read it....
