The Divorced Billionaire Heiress

Chapter 2434 Stop Her From Going to the Rescue

The weather was nice, and the air was refreshing.

Eric stood there with a faint smile on his face.

He clearly disregarded Keith's comment.

Swearing at people showed that Selena was vulgar. Her hot temper and frankness showed that she was stupid. Being beautiful and honest showed that she had no ability to protect herself.

Which one of those traits suited Eric?

Eric saw how wretched a woman who could not even protect herself was.

If he had not helped her, Selena might still be stuck in that horrendous marriage. She might have also become a murderer if she was pushed over the edge.

Eric was not a saint, so he did not have much sympathy for her.

He was just a little curious when he saw that Selena was gradually revealing her true self.

Selena had made herself appear cowardly because of her marriage.

Seeing that Eric did not care, Keith said, "Also, those kids only said those words because they heard them from their parents. What do they know? You can't make people think

that you don't like Chance, so everyone will bully him, right? Chance is a sensible kid. Even after being scolded like that, he just endured it without saying a word. If that woman hadn't shown up, I’m afraid Chance wouldn't have complained to you. Ferg, haven't you thought about why that is?"

Eric paused and took a deep look at him.

"Why?"

Keith sighed and said earnestly, "That's because kids who complain know that someone will stand up for them.

Chance didn't complain to you because he didn't have any hope that you'd help him. Instead, he was probably worried that you'd blame him for this incident. Ferg, taking care of children is different from running a business. Providing them with food and clothes doesn't solve everything. Look at Levi, Grant's eldest son. Although he’s also reserved, he knows that he doesn't have to put up with anyone. The little fatty threw sand at Levi just now, and Levi immediately threw stones at him. You really don’t know why that little fatty didn't dare to bully Levi?"

Or was it simply because Eric was not bothered to put any thought into Chance?

The two men fell silent.

Eric frowned. His face darkened.

"Everyone grows up like that. Kids who are coddled become useless. If Chance can't even bear this bit of suffering as a child, he’ll only feel more pressured when he takes over

Ferguson Corporation in the future. You don't need to lecture me. He chose this path himself."

Chance was the one who chose to come to Eric in the first place.
