The Divorced Billionaire Heiress

Chapter 2538 Why Don't You Look?

Selena looked at Eric's smiling face. His eyes were still stern and indifferent. He seemed so aloof and unapproachable, as if she would never attain his heart.

Eric’s words seemed gentle like he did not blame her, but it felt as if he had slapped her hard in the face.

Her face felt hot, and she felt like her darkest secret was exposed.

Selena was stunned for a few seconds. She stood up abruptly, took two steps forward, calmed down, and looked back at him.

She said in a clear and cold tone, "You don't need to put it so nicely. You're just trying to say that I overstepped my bounds, right? I have already apologized and promised not to do it again. Why do you still want to insult me?''

Eric's expression turned glum. His eyes also dimmed slightly.

"I didn't mean to insult you. I was just talking to you. Don't overthink it."

"Any normal person would misunderstand the way you put it. Eric, I did read your message, but so what? Are you saying there's some kind of confidential work in your conversation? If so, why did you show it to me just now? If not, why can’t I read it? I know we can’t get married, but don't I have the normal rights of a girlfriend? Or is your girlfriend now Ms. Caldwell, but I'm somehow unaware of it?"

Selena took a deep breath. She finally lashed out all her pent- up frustration.

She was not one to endure grievances.

If they were happy, they could stay together. If not, they would break up.

Having such a messy relationship would just make her unhappy.

There was a dead silence in the room for a moment.
