Chapter 2578 What Do You Think?

It turned out that their hearts had grown apart since then.

Selena could get herself out of their relationship easily, but Eric fell deeper in love with her.

Eric parked the car, got out, and opened the door for Selena.

Selena let Chance get into the car first. Then, she also sat in the back.

The car was dead silent.

No one spoke.

Eric seemed to be waiting for his sentence every minute of their silence.

He felt weak.

His palms were sweaty, but no one noticed except him.

Chance also seemed to feel the solemnity and tension between the adults. He looked at Selena for a
while, and then at Eric.

He dared not speak either.

Selena just stared blankly at the passing scenery outside the window.

The glow in the distant sky gradually dimmed, like a thin layer of rouge that was about to fade.

No one spoke the entire journey home.

Back at the villa, Chance returned to his room obediently.

Selena also got out of the car.



Eric was in the car. He looked at her back and took out a pack of cigarettes from the side with a tense
face.

He did not smoke often, nor was he addicted to cigarettes.

However, when he was under great pressure, he would smoke a cigarette to relieve his stress and
clear his chaotic thoughts.

Now, he desperately needed a smoke.

Eric lit the cigarette, and the smoke slowly spread from his fingertips.

The time he took to smoke a cigarette was neither long nor short. Fifteen minutes passed.

After that, he stubbed out the cigarette, got out of the car, and closed the door.

The complicated emotions that lingered all night weighed down on him so much that his ribs almost
broke.

Eric finally mustered up his courage to walk inside with heavy steps.

He went upstairs as if nothing happened.

In the bedroom, Selena had just finished taking a shower and was still drying her hair.

Eric was sitting on the balcony sofa by the window, staring into the distance. He suddenly felt an unreal
sense of security in his heart.

It was as if nothing happened tonight.

Selena came out and glanced at him.



She really wanted to smile as if nothing was wrong, but she could not force herself to.

Selena would not have come back to take a shower first if she had not felt grimy from going around all
day.

She felt that she should make some things clear.

Selena coughed.

Eric stood up and walked over with an inexplicably cautious and gentle expression.

When he approached her, he felt like his chest was stuffy. He suddenly did not know what to say.

Selena sat on the sofa on the side and looked at him calmly with a smile.

“I know you have something to tell me. We should discuss our relationship when we’re alone because
it’s better to talk about it in private. It won’t end well if outsiders witness this, right?”

Eric’s chest felt like it was scratched lightly.

It hurt and tingled for a moment.

He pursed his lips tightly and said in a low and dry voice, “Why?”

Eric took a deep breath. “Didn’t you always want to get married before? I thought you’d like today’s
surprise.”

Selena looked at him with a smile.

“It was so long ago that I almost forgot. Eric, I appreciate your surprise, but don’t joke like this again.”

“I wasn’t joking.”



Eric took a deep breath. The veins on his forehead were bulging slightly.

“I’m very serious about it. I planned this marriage proposal, but your reaction exceeded my
expectations.”

Selena’s smile faded. She lowered her head and remained silent for a few seconds before she looked
at him.

“You want to get married?”

“Yes.”

Eric looked at her with a serious gaze.

Selena raised her eyebrows. “I’m sorry. Maybe I shouldn’t bother you anymore. I still have the same
attitude about marriage. If you want to get married, find someone. I don’t want to get married.”

She smiled as if she was talking about something unimportant.

Selena wanted to walk past Eric and go to the guest room since the two of them could not pretend that
everything was alright.

Eric grabbed her arm, took a deep breath, and looked forbearing.

“Why don’t you want to get married all of a sudden?”

“Why do you want to get married?”

Selena turned her head and stared at him blankly.

“Do you think that because I wanted to marry you before that I’d still want to marry you now? Food has
a shelf life, not to mention human thoughts.”



Eric pursed his lips and did not speak.

Selena took a deep breath and removed his hand from her arm.

“Eric, I didn’t mean to hurt you, but we’re so different. It’s unrealistic for us to get married.”

“I don’t mind.”

“But I do.” Selena smiled. “Once we get married, I’ll be compared with all your exes.
novelebook.comNo doubt, I’m the trashiest one. Forget about Nicole because she’s perfect. But your
relationship with Ms. Caldwell was trending on social media for several days back then. Once our
relationship is made public, I will definitely get berated. Why should I suffer? Eric, maybe I misled you
at the beginning. I wanted to get married back when we just started this relationship because there
were many unstable factors, and I felt insecure. When Cindy provoked me, I lost my mind. In fact,
thinking about it now, I shouldn’t have acted like that. You did the right thing.”

Selena smiled, but Eric’s chest suddenly sank.

His face turned pale.

Eric was the one who allowed the gossip to be on the hot topic for a few days back then.

At the same time, he also allowed the netizens to slander Selena back when they were rumored to be
in a relationship.

His silence undoubtedly expressed his attitude that he would only do something that would be most
beneficial to him.

This was precisely what Selena found ridiculous.

Selena lowered her head and smiled. Her eyes were calm without wavering or a trace of guilt.



“I’ve always thought that our current relationship is great like this. If we like each other, we can stay
together. If not, we’ll break up. That way, we won’t get entangled in a messy relationship. Love
encourages two people to be together voluntarily, but marriage forces two people to be together. We’re
not suitable for marriage because we like ourselves more than anyone else. That’s why I decided to not
get married. As for you, Eric, if you want to get married, we can end our relationship. So be it.”

After Selena finished speaking lightly, she left without the slightest hesitation.

Eric’s handsome face suddenly became dark under the light. His body froze. He wanted to grab her
hand, but he was a step too late.

He was always one step too late.

Eric was flustered.

Did Selena not love him?

She looked into his eyes, but it looked as if the glimmer in her eyes had long since disappeared.

Eric did not know when Selena’s eyes started to dim.

There were so many things he did not notice.

Eric felt that his chest was heavy and suffocating.

Selena might still have feelings for him, but she certainly did not love him as much as before.

Eric missed out on the time when she loved him the most.

If he wanted to get married, she would end their relationship.



Eric could not help but laugh out loud. As he laughed, he bent over and felt tears coming out from the
corners of his eyes.

He tasted the bitterness.

The whole room was dead silent.

Not even a sound could be heard.

After a long time, Eric pushed open the bedroom door.

The servant was bringing milk to Chance’s room and was shocked to see Eric.

Eric glanced at her gravely. “Where’s Ms. Nelson?”
