The Divorced Billionaire Heiress

Chapter 2417 Several Suitors

Gerard was intrigued to hear this.

He also noticed the changes in Eric.

This was a good opportunity, so Gerard wanted to find out why Eric treated Selena differently.

"Yeah? So, what kind of man does your boss like?"

The waiter saw that Eric and Gerard were not ordinary men, and they looked like they had a good temper, so he

said a few more words.

"My boss hasn't accepted anyone yet, but those admirers just keep coming for my boss. My boss doesn't want to

lead them on either and made herself clear. She welcomes customers to the bar regardless of whether she likes

them or not. But she won't give any discounts or open a tab because we're running a business."

Gerard could not help but smile. He adjusted his glasses and looked at Eric.

"Interesting! Your boss is really eye-catching, huh?"

Eric snorted coldly.

"It's because you don't know her."

The waiter did not like listening to Eric's subtle insult, but he did not retort and only pursed his lips.

The waiter thought, 'My boss is obviously the most beautiful

boss ever! Is this man blind?!'

Gerard asked, "How do you know her? Why do I feel that a lot of things happened that I don't know about during my

time abroad?"

'There are a lot of things you don't know."

Eric took a sip from the wine glass. The rich and spicy liquid entered his throat, which made his blood more heated.

He thought that the woman sitting at the bar was becoming more of an eye-sore, especially when he saw a man

touching her. His eyes seemed to be frozen.

'That person looks familiar. Does he come here often?"

When Eric asked, the waiter looked over.

"Oh, that man is one of my boss's fanatic suitors. I think he's a trust fund kid. He's quite generous, but my boss

never accepts gifts from him. Even after being rejected many times, he still comes over and drinks until he vomits.

Then, his friend will take him away. But he just refuses to give up. He's been here a lot of times. He doesn't listen no

matter what my boss says. Look, he’s starting to cry again..."

Gerard was shocked to hear this. He did not expect Selena to have such a great charm.

He glanced at Eric, who had already stood up.

Gerard looked in that direction and was about to walk over.

He paused and stopped Eric. "Why are you going there?"

Gerard let go of Eric after a while and smiled.

"Are you saving the damsel in distress? Go on then!"

Eric looked at him coldly. His lips were pursed into a straight line.

"Look properly! That idiot is Nathaniel! He said that he's studying abroad, but he’s still trying to date someone

here?"

His every word was cold.

The corners of Gerard's mouth twitched, and he did not know what to say as he watched Eric march over coldly.

Gerard secretly mourned for Nathaniel.

Poor guy...

"Selena, can you please consider me? Every time I see you, I just feel like I’ve found the meaning of life! Do you

believe it? You’re the compass to my life..."

Nathaniel drank some wine, and he was clearly not thinking through his words.

Selena sat next to him with a half-smile. She obviously did not believe a word he said.

However, she still nodded so that he would not be so sad.

"I believe you."

Nathaniel took a deep breath and felt motivated to work harder.

'Then can you please think about it? We're a really good fit, don't you think? I'm an explorer, but I'm willing to

change for you!"

Just when Selena was about to say something with a perfunctory smile, she saw Eric put a hand on Nathaniel's

shoulder.

"What are you going to change? Are you going to change your habit of having a new girlfriend every month? Aren't

you supposed to be studying abroad instead of picking up women in bars?"

Eric's voice was extremely cold and deep.

Nathaniel's whole body shuddered. He instantly sobered up and felt as if he was struck by lightning. He was so

shocked that he almost fell off the high stool.

He turned his head, looked at Eric's familiar face, and suddenly turned pale with fear.

"Uncle Eric..."

Eric's eyes were gloomy without a hint of emotion.

"What? Did you forget your last name?"

Nathaniel gulped and quickly explained, "Actually, I just got off the plane and came here for a drink to beat the jet

lag..."

Selena smiled to the side and did not expose the fact that Nathaniel also came yesterday.

However, Eric obviously did not believe his nonsense.

"Oh, really? Do you think I'll believe that?"

"Uncle Eric..."

Nathaniel had a bitter face and pleaded.

"Please show me some respect in front of the woman I like!"

Eric sneered, glanced at Selena, loosened his collar, and said mockingly, 'The woman you like? Did you ask her if

she likes you?"

The topic involved Selena.

Selena put down her glass and clapped her hands.

"Mr. Nathaniel, I've already told you that I don't want to be in a relationship for the time being, so don't waste your

time on me."

After she finished speaking, she smiled and looked at Eric.

"Mr. Ferguson, are you satisfied with what I just said?"

Her smile wavered slightly. Eric was in a daze looking at those bright eyes.

Eric immediately looked away and calmed his pounding heart.

"Did you hear that?"

Nathaniel was extremely sad as he looked at Selena and pouted.

"I can impress you with my sincerity."

'That won't be possible."

Selena smiled and mercilessly dismissed his thought.

Nathaniel did not admit defeat. "How do you know if you don't give it a shot?"

Selena smiled. "I know that many women like you. Other girls will be head over heels in love with you if you use

these methods."

"Although I’ve had many girlfriends, I’m sincere to everyone. I only find out their true colors after dating them.

That's why I keep breaking up with them. This is inevitable in the path of pursuing true love. But my desire for true

love is real..."

Nathaniel was still defending himself.

Hearing this, Eric could not help but sneer.

"Sincere?"

Nathaniel still wanted to say something, but when he met Eric’s cold eyes, he could not say anything.

Nathaniel licked his lips dryly and knew that now was not the best time to confess his love.

Thus, he could only compromise and surrender.

"Fine... Uncle Eric, don't hit me, okay? I'll leave now."

Nathaniel looked at Selena with a little regret.

"Ms. Nelson, I'll come to see you another day."

The corner of her mouth twitched.

'Thanks for your patronage."

Nathaniel was speechless.

He tossed his jacket over his shoulders.

"Shall we go, Uncle Eric?"

Eric glanced at him and did not intend to leave with him.

Nathaniel frowned and looked at Eric incomprehensibly.
