The Divorced Billionaire Heiress
Chapter 2583 Fiancee

Eric stepped forward unfazed, took Selena's hand, and walked toward the door.

Under the camera flashes, Eric stood there, looking upright and stern. His handsome facial features permeated an indifferent chill. Eric exuded a strong and intimidating vibe standing there.

When everyone saw this, they did not dare to offend him like how they bombarded Selena just now even though they were curious. Lara's expression also changed slightly because she was a little shocked that Eric dared to hold Selena's hand so openly.

This was an acknowledgment of the illicit relationship between Eric and Selena.

How could Eric actually marry a divorcee with no money, power, or background?

Even if Eric was playing with Selena, he could not admit it in public.

Lara clenched her fists slightly and suddenly panicked for a moment.

She had a feeling that something bad was about to happen.

Lara paused, struggling to speak.

"Mr. Ferguson, I hope you can have mercy on me. Ms. Nelson and I just had a misunderstanding..."

Eric glanced at Lara indifferently and chuckled lightly.

Then, he glanced at the others. His voice was cold.

"It's not a misunderstanding. I blacklisted you on purpose, Lara. From today onward, you won't have a future in the entertainment industry." Eric spoke word by word with a cold tone, which hit her like a boulder.

Lara felt like she was falling into an ice cellar.

Her face turned pale in an instant.

She was on the brink of collapse.

Hearing these words coming from Eric was different from having someone else say this to her.

Lara was able to come here because a few of her films were waiting to be broadcast, and the investors did not want their money to be wasted.

Thus, they wanted her to figure out a way to get Eric's forgiveness.

Lara knew that Eric would not forgive her. Otherwise, Mr. Griffin's pleas would have worked.

That was why Lara came up with this method.

What was Eric afraid of? The only thing that could overthrow a capitalist like Eric was public opinion.

However, she forgot that capitalists could also control public opinion.

Lara's shoulders trembled slightly.

Even if they were on a live broadcast and facing tens of thousands of netizens, Eric did not try to be tactful, nor did he hesitate.

The media could not stand it. "Mr. Ferguson, you're too overbearing. Do you admit that you blacklisted Lara because of Ms. Nelson? What is your relationship with Ms. Nelson?"

Someone who was not afraid of death finally asked.

The lobby instantly felt cold.

They thought that Eric would not answer and that their careers might have come to an end.

However, Eric's cold expression looked a little torn. His eyes were indifferent as he chuckled lightly and squeezed the hand of the woman next to him.

It was warm but powerful.

"This is our private matter. There is no need for us to explain to any of you, and you have no right to crowd around here. Lara was unlucky to bully a newcomer who just happened to be my fiancée. She has no choice but to admit her bad luck. Otherwise, no one would dare to stand up to Lara for bullying them. I think she deserved it."

In just a few words, the expressions of the people present changed drastically.

Selena turned her head to look at Eric in shock.

Eric chuckled indifferently with a bit of arrogance and recklessness.

"Did you get that clearly? She is my woman, my future wife, and the lady boss of Ferguson Corporation. If you dare to bully her again, you'll all end up like Lara."

For the first time, Eric said such harsh words in front of the public. He did not care whether his words would cause turmoil in Ferguson Corporation.

Eric took Selena's hand and turned around to get on the elevator.

He came to take Selena away openly.

Mitchell could handle the rest.

Mitchell's chest trembled, it seemed that Eric was serious.

He stepped forward with a dignified expression. "Did you hear that? We will announce the news of Mr. Ferguson and Ms. Nelson's marriage when the time is right. novelebook.comPlease don't spread rumors at will."

"But did Ms. Nelson really kill her ex-husband for Mr. Ferguson...?"

There were still people who asked without tact.

Mitchell looked over indifferently.

"Do you have evidence? Did you see it yourself? Did the police file a case? Not all failed marriages are shameful. The failure of a marriage is to prepare for a brighter future. Mr. Ferguson and Ms. Nelson have the right to make their own choices. They choose to be together, and they don't care for anyone's blessing. If everyone judges a person's character based on their failed marriage, then I truly sympathize with those women who are struggling in their poor marriages. In your eyes, they have almost no chance of success."

Everyone fell silent all of a sudden.

Some people even felt a little ashamed.

The live broadcast was almost cut off due to the sudden increase in viewership.

At this point, the network was suddenly disconnected.

They only got to hear what Eric said as well as Mitchell's concluding remarks.

Their bias toward Lara just now suddenly wavered.

What Eric said seemed right.

Lara was unlucky and bullied the newcomer who happened to be Eric's fiancée. What if the newbie was someone else?

Then, the newbie would be unlucky.

Why did Lara have the cheek to come out and show how miserable her life was?

Lara only ended up like this because she offended someone she should not have offended.

Selena's private affairs should not be exposed like this either. Lara only misled the audience in the wrong direction without any evidence.

Selena did not talk at all since the beginning. She seemed to know that she could not prove her innocence because everyone sympathized with Lara and would ignore the truth. They were only curious.

Why couldn't Selena be with Eric?

Couldn't two people from different backgrounds have a spark of love?

Even if Selena denied it in the early stage, why couldn't they fall in love later?

Why would they need to make a ridiculous guarantee to the netizens?

[I don't know why, but I think what he said makes sense. Can't people get a divorce if they're not happy?]

[That's right! Why should they be discriminated against if they're divorced? It's ridiculous! Isn't Lara also a divorcee? She even used this to attack Selena?]

[I suddenly feel that Mr. Ferguson is really handsome. Has he found his happiness?]

[Mr. Ferguson is so handsome and cool even if he's scolding me!]

[Forget it. Aside from their family background, Eric and Selena seem to be a good match. They are both so good-looking. Even if Eric can't get Goddess Nicole, it's good that he can be with Selena. We should wish them well!]

[I just got divorced. It's not easy, yet people still discriminate against me. Why can't a divorcee marry rich people? Who made such rules?]

The public opinion online began to take a turn.

Lara also did not expect that the public opinion would go out of control.
