Since it was an unfamiliar number, Selena rejected the call.
However, the caller persisted.
Finally, Selena picked it up in frustration. “Who’s calling?”
“It’s me. Shall we meet?”
The other party was arrogant. It was a female voice.
Selena paused and recognized the voice, but she did not admit it.
“Oh, who are you? Now that my net worth has increased, I won’t just meet anyone. I don’t even know your name.”
The other party was silent for more than ten seconds before reluctantly speaking.
“It’s me, Cindy Yeager. Let’s meet up, Ms. Nelson. I have a favor to ask of you.”
Selena got up from the bed, smiled, and stood on the balcony, looking at the lush green scenery outside. She was in a good mood.
“I don’t think that’s necessary. I heard from Eric that your family is dangerous and that you might harm me when cornered, so he told me to stay away from you.”
Cindy’s breathing was a little labored because she was pissed off.
“He’s not a good guy. Why didn’t he just... You don’t have to worry. I won’t harm you. He’s the reason my family is in this state, and I know it has nothing to do with you.”
“You’re only talking nicely now. How do I know if you’re not lying?”
Selena spoke lightly.
“Fine. What will make you come and meet me willingly? You can pick the time and place.”
After Cindy finished speaking, she was afraid that Selena would not agree, so she added, “I don’t know if Eric really likes you, but what I do know is whether you’ll be able to marry into an affluent family.”
Selena’s gaze gradually sank, and she breathed quietly.
Both of them were secretly competing with each other.
Before last night, Selena would have mocked Cindy’s words and hung up the phone.
However, after last night and this morning, Selena had a change of heart.
Selena was not interested in marrying into a wealthy family, but she liked the feeling of warm mornings like this.
She slowly took a deep breath.
“Fine. Let’s meet at the coffee shop opposite Ferguson Corporation. See you later.”
After speaking, Selena hung up the phone.
She was afraid that the shrewd Cindy would notice something.
She was also afraid of revealing her inner thoughts.
It was okay to want money and glory, but she should not hope for true love.
Selena went to take a shower to freshen up before she went to the dressing room to pick out some clothes.
She did not choose her own clothes. Instead, she wore the designer clothes that Eric gave her.
Any one of those designer clothes was enough to double her worth. She looked a lot more elegant too.
Selena wore a simple top and a satin skirt. She looked clean and extremely charming.
Before she left, she even put on light makeup. It had been a long time since she put in so much effort to dress up.
Selena planned to go to Ferguson Corporation after talking to Cindy so that she could tell Eric about what they talked about.
That old fox must have guessed why Cindy was looking for Selena.
Selena was determined to be on the same front as Eric.
She simply took a set of car keys from the drawer in the dressing room, where Eric left all his car keys.
Then, she sent Eric a message.
[Can I borrow your car?]
This time, Eric replied quickly. [Approved.]
Selena twitched the corners of her lips.
“Show off.”
She walked slowly to the garage. With a light touch, one of the most inconspicuous Mercedes-Benz lit up.
It was still quite dazzling.
Selena shook her head. A boss’s life was indeed extravagant.

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....
