Chapter 2465 Subpar Reputation
Selena was not afraid of others watching her. She stood there righteously and said with a smile, "Ms. Yeager, go
home. Mr. Ferguson doesn't want to see you."
"Whatever you say isn’t credible. I don't believe that you conveyed the message. How about this? Ask Mr. Ferguson
to come out and tell me in person."
Cindy lifted her chin with a haughty look. She would not give up until she reached her goal.
Selena raised her eyebrows nonchalantly.
"Ms. Yeager, don't you understand? You're being rude for coming here uninvited. Is this what the Yeager family is
capable of? To tell you the truth, Eric can't come out because he's still lying in bed naked from having too much sex
last night."
'You... You're shameless!"
Cindy yelled.
Selena laughed. Her slender neck and shoulders were straight, and she was a charming woman. When she stood
there, she looked more like an arrogant little temptress.
'You're even more shameless than I am!"
Selena was not the type to just let someone scold her.
She immediately retorted.
Cindy's face turned red with anger.
She stepped up the stairs and tried to get closer to Selena to argue with her.
As a result, the moment Cindy approached the bedroom, she suddenly heard a man impatiently shouting from
inside. His voice was deep and husky.
"Babe, why aren't you back yet? What are you doing outside?"
Cindy stopped abruptly, and the blood on her face drained instantly.
Even though she did not have good intentions in coming here, the reason Selena gave just now was irrefutable.
If Cindy barged in rashly and saw the mess in the bedroom, she would be in the most awkward position.
Selena would even laugh at her.
Cindy clenched her teeth and did not dare to make a sound.

Selena raised her eyebrows. She felt so disgusted and had goosebumps all over her body when she heard Eric
calling her "babe".
However, in front of Cindy, Selena played along with Eric's act.
"I’m coming soon! Ms. Yeager won't leave..."
Her voice was gentle and pleasant. Cindy raised her eyes and glared at Selena with a hint of warning.
Selena met her gaze without any hesitation.
Eric snorted coldly. His cold voice came from the bedroom.
"Are the servants and bodyguards outside dead? Why would they allow just anyone to come in?"
With this, the air became stagnant.
Selena looked at Cindy with a slight smile.
Cindy paused for a long time, lowered her eyes, and finally cast a fierce glance at Selena before she turned around
and went downstairs without saying anything.
Selena pursed her lips. "It's a pity that the duck you captured flew away just like that..."
She quickly realized that she was speaking for Cindy and immediately shut up.
Then, she returned to the bedroom.
Eric was motionless on the bed. He was holding his phone and was on a call with Mitchell.
When he saw Selena walk in, he pointed to the documents on the table and motioned for her to bring them over.
Selena was speechless.
She resigned to fate and took the documents to Eric. Eric flipped through the pages and looked at the data on
them. His face darkened in an instant, and he reprimanded his staff.
'You guys can't even do things properly. What are those people in the office for? Are they all blind?!"
"Change it! Change the contract immediately before the other party gets it. If the other party sees our reserve
price, you guys will fork out the damages for it."
He hung up the phone with a glum face.
Selena sat beside him and looked at him. She held a fruit platter in her arms and blinked.
"Can I sit on the bed and watch TV?"
Selena thought, 'And eat something by the way?'
Eric took a deep breath. His chest rose and fell.
"No."
Selena was silent. Her tone was a bit bleak.
"You're really quick to throw someone away when you're done using them. Cindy definitely has bad intentions when
she comes here to see you, but why are you worried?"
Would Eric have to be worried about the Yeager family?
Eric sneered.
"She just came to see if I was dead or not and if I suspected her family. You did a good job just now, but that reason
wasn't the best.”
His voice was low, and he looked at her with a dark gaze.
Suddenly, Eric stretched out his hand, grasped Selena's
slender neck, and pulled her close to him. He was in control and casual about it, and the tip of their noses was
touching each other.
Selena was so startled that she forgot to react.
Their breaths intertwined briefly before Selena pushed him away.
Eric's eyes darkened. He clasped her wrist forcefully and suddenly leaned down. His eyes were a bit restrained.
"What did you just say? I had too much sex? You ruined my reputation!"
Eric gritted his teeth. The veins on his forehead were bulging like he was about to explode.
Selena's face turned pale. The enchantment in her heart just now dissipated in an instant.
She pursed her lips and recalled the reason she made up just to annoy Cindy.
As a woman, Selena knew that it was the best reason to stab Cindy in the heart.
Eric's reputation?
It was not great to begin with!
Selena lay on the bed with her hair slightly disheveled. Her fair skin seemed to be radiant and fair under the light.
She looked delicate and languid.
Seeing her like this, Eric felt his scalp tingle. He knew he should not have any thoughts about Selena, but his body's
reaction was faster than his mind’s.
Selena bit her lower lip and hesitated to speak.

Eric was speechless.
He felt that one day he would die of a heart attack because of this woman.
There were a few seconds of silence.
Eric closed his eyes, calmed down, and slowly opened them.
His mind was clearer and more rational.
Eric's throat moved slightly. His voice was deep and hoarse.
"If news of this spreads, you won't be much better off either!"
Eric let go of her and was just about to get up.
However, Selena suddenly cupped his face and kissed him on the lips.
The man froze.
He suddenly did not know how to react.
Before he could taste the sweetness, Selena already let go of him.
Selena pursed her lips. Her palms were sweaty, and she broke the silence.
"Sure enough, I didn’t feel anything. My heartbeat didn’t
speed up. I guess I'm really not interested in you."
She admitted that her hormones were acting up in those few seconds, but she was unwilling to admit that it was
because of Eric.
Selena would probably react like that to any man who was good-looking and had a good body.
Perhaps as she got older, her physiological needs caught up to her.
Eric was shocked by the kiss just now. His face was dark, and his eyes were deep.
"Do you know what you just did?"
His words carried a warning. His voice was hoarse and deep, and he was completely different from his usual angry
self.
The current Eric looked more like the unattainable and domineering president, cold, scary, and unapproachable.
It was hard to read his mind.
Selena pursed her lips. "I know. I just tried it. You don’t have the energy to think about sex since you're still injured.
Don't accuse me of bullying you."
She sat up and straightened her clothes.
Her long, soft hair was casually draped over her delicate shoulders, which were covered by her pajamas.
