Eric was so angry that he could not speak. He did not want to quarrel with Selena because of this matter, so he threw the blanket back to its original place and took out his phone to send a message. Then, he sat down to eat.
Selena was sitting next to him, so how could Eric sit down and eat in peace?
Selena’s feet were roaming around and rubbing against Eric’s legs. Thus, Eric was irritable during the meal.
However, he could not lose his temper.
That was because he knew that he went too far last night. Since he felt guilty, he became more tolerant of Selena.
Selena ate a vegetable salad and looked to be in a good mood. She did not feel uncomfortable at all.
Eric also looked gentler.
Soon, a car entered the driveway.
Mitchell and the driver came in with several bags of branded clothes.
When Mitchell saw Selena, he raised his eyebrows slightly.
He knew that something happened between them when Eric asked him to bring ladies’ clothes over. This was his job as Eric’s assistant.
“Ms. Nelson, try this dress to see if you like it. If you don’t like it, we won’t cooperate with this brand in the future. We’ll work with someone else!”
Selena greeted Mitchell happily and said with a smile, “I don’t have to try it. I trust your tastes.”
Mitchell smiled and asked the servants to take everything upstairs.
Selena almost finished eating, so she went upstairs to change her clothes.
At least Eric was thoughtful enough to get people to send some clothes over.
Otherwise, it would be somewhat indecent for her to go out wearing his shirt.
Of course, Selena did not care about what others thought about her. However, she was afraid that it would affect the business of her bar.
As a result, almost no one in the living room paid any attention to Eric. His face was dark and glum.
Selena was not a picky person. She chose a simple and elegant beige dress to change into and went downstairs quickly.
“Isn’t it nice?”
Selena walked around the living room and looked at Eric and Mitchell.
Eric paused and was about to speak when Mitchell complimented Selena.
“Oh my goodness! Did a goddess come down to earth?”
Selena covered her mouth in embarrassment and chuckled lightly.
Eric was speechless as he thought, ‘I made a mistake… I shouldn’t have let Mitchell come over.’
Eric looked at the two people, put down the things in his hands, and coughed lightly.
“That’s enough. It’s time to go back to the office.”
Mitchell quickly put away his smile and put on a serious expression.
“Yes, sir.”
Selena quickly caught up to them.
“Hey, take me back to the bar!”
Eric glanced at her with complicated eyes and pursed his lips.
“You should stay here and rest. Why do you want to go back to the bar?”
There was no business in the bar during the day, so it was pointless to go back.
Moreover, Selena was exhausted from last night, and her leg injury was not healed, so she could not walk around.
Selena raised her head with a puzzled look on her face.
“I’m going back to rest, of course! I’m very busy in the bar. It can’t operate without me!”
Eric was speechless. He could obviously hear her exaggeration, but he did not say much.
Selena was probably not used to this unfamiliar environment.
“Fine. Let’s go.”
Eric would pick her up when he got off work in the afternoon.
Selena quickly followed.
After walking a few steps, she suddenly bumped into Eric’s hard back.
Selena clicked her tongue and covered her forehead.
Eric suddenly turned around and looked at her legs.
“Do you want me to carry you?”
He almost forgot that she had trouble walking, so he kindly asked her if she needed help.

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....
