The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric)
Chapter 2496 Who Will Take the Initiative?

"Mr. Ferguson, what do you need from me?"

Eric's face was glum. His eyes were dark and impenetrable, so Mitchell could not tell what Eric was thinking. However, he could clearly see the displeasure on Eric's face.

Mitchell stood there as if nothing had happened and looked at Eric innocently.

The two men looked at each other for a few seconds.

Eric finally said, "Has she called you?"

Mitchell's heart skipped a beat. He clearly knew who Eric was referring to, but he still had to pretend like he did not know.

"Who? I've been busy all day with the work that you assigned. My girlfriend is about to break up with me..."

Mitchell also wanted to complain about his workload and change the subject in the meantime.

However, Eric did not give Mitchell the chance and interrupted him.

"I'm talking about Selena. Has she called you?"

Eric was still wondering if he missed her call because he had too many calls.

If Selena could not reach Eric, she could still get to him through Mitchell!

Mitchell stood there, gulped, and smiled a little nervously.

"No. Ms. Nelson might be too tired or busy with the bar. Why would she call me?"

Eric's face softened a little when he heard this.

"Let's go. I'll pick her up from work."

Eric thought that Selena must be happy to see him.

Mitchell paused and carefully reminded Eric.

"Ms. Nelson only starts working at night!"

Eric's face froze. He then realized that the damn bar was only open at night.

The man frowned, and his face was glum.

Mitchell coughed lightly at the side.

"Actually, I don't think Ms. Nelson will stay up all night even if the bar only opens at night. She's the boss, so she could just leave it to the bar manager to watch over the bar. She wouldn't have to watch over the bar by herself. Mr. Ferguson, since you guys are just starting a relationship, why don't you take the initiative to approach her? Women like to be supported. If you take the initiative, she will be happy." Eric's face darkened. Take the initiative?

Others had always taken the initiative to approach Eric. When did Eric have to take the initiative to serve others?

This was not realistic.

Besides, Selena had also taken the initiative last night.

On second thought, Eric recalled that Selena had helped him when he was injured, so he should be more humble around her.

His dark eyes flickered slightly as he understood what to do.

"Tell me, how should I take the initiative?"

Mitchell was glad that Eric was not ashamed to ask questions. At least, Eric was self-aware and did not rely on his own self-righteous speculation. Otherwise, it would only create more trouble. Mitchell coughed and immediately said, "For example, you can send her flowers or gifts every day, ask her out for a meal, and tell her what you're doing..."

Eric interrupted him irritably.

"My itinerary is confidential. Why should I tell her?"

Mitchell paused. "If you tell her, she'll know where you are, and she'll know that you're always thinking of her!"

He took a deep breath and thought, 'It's not easy to date Eric!'

However, Mitchell also knew that if Eric did not take the initiative, Selena would never do so.

Selena was not one of those women who had ulterior motives for Eric.

Eric stared at a certain corner thoughtfully, as if he was seriously thinking about the meaning of Mitchell's words.

It seemed to make sense.

Mitchell said, "Perhaps it wouldn't be so difficult if you put the same thought and care you put into Ms. Stanton on Ms. Nelson."

Eric instantly exuded a chill as he looked at Mitchell sharply.

Mitchell knew that he had said something wrong, so he immediately kept silent.

For some reason, Eric was not as impatient as before when Mitchell mentioned Nicole. Eric was calmer.

It was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him. Eric reminded himself that Selena was not the person he loved, so he did not need to spend too much effort on her. What kind of feelings did he have for Selena?

Would he marry her?

Eric shook his head. No way.

He

new very well

heart had long been occupied by another woman.

Perhaps he was just too lonely.

Eric struggled to calm down gradually. His face was also glum.

There seemed to be a chill covering his whole body, which was daunting.

Seeing this, Mitchell secretly cursed himself for speaking out. Then, Mitchell left the office apprehensively.

However, no matter how long he waited, Eric still did not leave.

At first, Eric wanted to see Selena, but he no longer wanted to.

They worked overtime until 9:00 pm.

It was pitch black outside.

Finally, there was movement from Eric's office.

As soon as Eric came out, Mitchell heard him and followed him immediately.

"Mr. Ferguson, are you going to the bar?"

Eric pursed his lips and said in a deep tone, "I'm going home."

Mitchell glanced at Eric unexpectedly and nodded.

"Then I'll contact the driver."

If Eric was going home, Mitchell did not need to follow and could get off work.

Mitchell just did not expect it.

Eric was not taking the initiative, and Selena was not in a hurry either.

When would these two people get together?

Mitchell sighed. It seemed that he was the only one who was worried about their relationship while the two involved parties were not at all concerned. Eric went downstairs and saw that the driver was already waiting for him.

The driver opened the back door and waited for him to get in.

Eric stood there and hesitated for a few seconds. He lowered his eyelashes slightly, paused, and then spoke.

"You can get off work. I'll drive by myself."

The driver was taken aback for a moment. He nodded without asking why and went back to the garage to drive his own car.

After getting into the car, Eric was so upset that he drove without a destination or direction in mind.

Should he go home?

Only the nanny and Chance were in the house at this time. Every time Chance saw him, he was like a mouse seeing a cat. It made Eric uncomfortable. Where else could he go?

Eric had a bias in his heart, but he did not dare to admit it frankly.

If he went to the bar, then what was their relationship?

Were they just a one-night stand?

Eric did not want to just give up on Selena, but he could not make any promises either.

Eric seemed to be dragged into the deep sea. The air was being taken away from him bit by bit, and he was struggling so badly that he wanted to tear himself apart.

Somehow, the car arrived at the entrance of the bar.

Eric did not know why he came here by mistake.

Perhaps this woman was too attractive, which subconsciously lured him over.

Eric got out of the car. When he walked to the door, he heard the loud music inside.

His heart suddenly fell silent. It was as if the boulder pressing on his heart disappeared in an instant.

When he opened the door and went in, he saw the overcrowded bar and the relatively bourgeois decoration. The noisy musicians were on the stage with red and green lights flickering everywhere. It looked more pleasing to the eye.

The place was not as lively as it could be, and the people were not as drunk either.

Before everyone started jumping on the dance floor, they were still chatting and laughing in their seats.
