Chapter 179
“Say, when are you going back to your place to sleep?”novelbin
Lying on the sofa languidly, Pierre struck a bewitching pose. “Can’t I sleep here?”
“Cut it out!” Selena was sitting on the sofa, channel-surfing in boredom. There isn’t any interestingmovie, but even if there is, it can’t possibly be as riveting as the godlike man beside me. All of asudden, she stretched out a hand and covered his face. “Can you stop staring at me like that?”
“Are you shy? You’re the president of JNS Corporation who has a net worth of over a billion, yetyou’re shy when someone looks at you?”
Selena cast him a sidelong glance. “Are you leaving, or are you not?”
“There’s finally no one else here besides you and me, so shouldn’t we do some couple stuff sincewe’re dating?”
It does make sense, Selena mused. However, I just feel somewhat bored with couple stuff anddating. Perhaps it’s because I’m already a mother now.
Then, Pierre sat up. “Say, there’s nothing else to do other than making love when dating. Why don’tyou just be my woman?” he murmured in her ear.
Shrinking back, Selena pushed him away. “There are plenty of things to do besides making lovewhen dating!”
“For example?”
“For example…” Selena instantly got stuck. There’s indeed nothing else to do.
Pierre cocked an eyebrow. “Well?”
At this, Selena let out a sigh. “I’m tired today, so I’m going to bed.” As she said this, she wentupstairs. To her surprise, Pierre didn’t follow her. He actually went back. He just went back like that!In her bedroom, she stared at the house right opposite of hers. Then, she suddenly drew thecurtains, abruptly realizing that she seemed to have hoped that he’d follow her upstairs. “Get a grip,Selena Yard!” She patted her face before going to the washroom.
After the intense promotions and slow sales of new products, the Yard Family had no choice but toclose down more than a dozen shops successively. In the space of a single night, Roland’s hairwent white from worry. He initially hoped to seek Selena out with the bracelet since she might givehim a hand for the sake of the bracelet, but alas, he didn’t manage to get the bracelet back.Nonetheless, she was still his daughter, so he again came to see her shamelessly.
In the president’s office, Selena suddenly noticed that Roland’s hair had actually gone white. When Isaw him the previous time, he still looked robust, but he’s really old at this moment. At the sight ofher father in this state, she couldn’t help feeling a touch sorry for him.
“Selena, please help me once more. Do you think your mother would want to see our relationshipcome to this if she were still alive?”
Selena put down the pen in her hand. “How do you want me to help?”
Upon seeing that she was softening toward him, the weight on Roland’s chest was finally lifted.“Inject capital into our family’s company and allow us to join in the collaboration of the brand yourcompany is jointly developing with Empire Group. Let us have a share of the pie. Also, it isn’tappropriate for you to handle such a huge corporation when you’re a woman. Why don’t you hand itover to me? I’ll manage it, and we can merge our companies. That’ll be perfect!”
As Selena stared at his expression, she suddenly wanted to slap herself across the face. I actuallyfelt sorry for him earlier? “Impossible. Don’t even dream of it!” She interrupted Roland before hecould speak further.
“It was all your fault that our family ended up in this situation now! You stole Meredith’s man andmade it so that Megan’s marriage is on the rocks. It’s so bad that the Lake Family wants to kick herout of the family! You’ve ruined this family, yet it’s so difficult for you to help?” Upon hearingSelena’s answer, Roland’s attitude changed at once, and he started condemning her.
After listening to his remarks, Selena didn’t even bother arguing with him. Anyway, everything is myfault in his eyes.
