Selena interrupted Eric with a smile. “I think you’re too impulsive.”
However, Eric got down on one knee in front of Selena and solemnly took out a ring from his pocket.
That ring was the one that inexplicably appeared on her ring finger and she had returned.
Selena’s expression was unbearably tense.
She could barely maintain the smile on her face.
Her heart cooled down a little, but Eric’s blood was boiling from head to toe.
Eric’s emotions were a little turbulent. His expression fluctuated greatly, and he looked up at her with bright eyes.
At this moment, Selena was looking down on him.
With their position suddenly reversed, Selena was in a trance for a moment.
Was Eric serious?
However, even if Eric was serious, he did not discuss it with her.
Selena felt as if she had fallen into a deep, bottomless pool without any ripples.
She should be excited. She should be covering her mouth and crying in excitement just to fit the occasion, but she did not.
Selena was so calm that even she was surprised.
She was incomparably calm and composed without any emotional fluctuations or hesitation in her heart.
Selena was thinking of a way to politely decline the proposal so that Eric would not be embarrassed.
Boom! Boom!
Fireworks suddenly rose from behind.
The fireworks were bright and colorful. Everyone immediately shouted with joy, covering up the entanglement and anxiety in her heart at this moment.
Selena was slightly relieved.
The fireworks were beautiful, but Selena was not in the mood to appreciate them.
It turned out that this was also part of his arrangement.
Eric timed it appropriately to the occasion.
He gently took her hand, smiled gently, and wanted to put the ring on her.
However, the moment Selena touched the cold ring, she instantly curled up her fist.
She smiled as gently as possible.
“Eric, let’s go back and talk, okay? There are too many people here.”
Eric’s smile froze. He restrained himself slightly and looked up at her. His eyes reflected the sparkle of fireworks.
“I want all these people to witness our critical moment together. Selena, didn’t you always want to get married? I thought it through. I can marry you. I hesitated before because of various things and broke your heart. I was also distressed then. I don’t want to see you sad again. If I must marry someone, I hope it’ll be you. We haven’t known each other for long, but I feel like…”
Eric had prepared a script in advance. Although he did not have to, he was afraid that he would forget what he had to say if he got too excited.
How could the dignified president of Ferguson Corporation lose his composure at this moment?
Thus, Eric memorized the words by heart.
Selena suddenly grasped Eric’s hand that was holding the ring. Her eyes were dark.
“Eric, get up first.”
Selena’s fingers were slightly cold as she held onto Eric’s wrist. Eric’s beating heart finally calmed down slowly because of her smile.
Eric gradually lowered his eyes. The light reflected in his eyes disappeared.
The smile on his face slowly faded until his lips became a straight line.
Selena should be happy, right?
No matter what, she should not have this reaction!
Eric’s colleagues around them were all looking up to enjoy the fireworks, so no one paid attention to this awkward scene.
However, Mitchell noticed it. He had an intuition that it was over.
“Selena…”
Eric’s voice suddenly became dry and hoarse.
He did not know what to say, but he clearly had a lot to say to her.
He really wanted to express his love for her.
However, facing Selena’s dark and calm eyes, Eric could not speak.
The fireworks were fleeting.
It was soon over.
Everyone focused their attention on Eric and Selena again.
Eric stood up stiffly while Selena pulled him up.

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....
