Chapter 29 Pretending to Be Delicate

Book:Pursue Ex-husband after Rebirth Published:2024-5-1

Cecilia was stunned by Selina’s tone and sarcastic expression. Selina, the stupid and coward woman, always played the role as a foil, but how could she become so strong
No, it was impossible. She must have mistaken.
“You’d better complete your study. Don’t think of going abroad. If you can’t graduate from college, the Auton family will laugh at you, and if you’re no allowed to attend my wedding, what can you do”
“Selina!” Cecilia wanted to slap her.
Selina stopped her by catching her wrist and pushed her away. Cecilia fell down to her feet.
“Your mum greets guests at home every day, but it seems that she hasn’t taught you not to slap others casually.”
Cecilia was too angry to stand up and pointed at Selina, shouting, “Selina, are you insulting my mum You stupid woman, why dare you teach me Who do you think you are! You think Eric loves you Do you forget you could only eat my leftover when you were young You dare to talk to me in this way. I’ll ask mum to shut you away!”
It would have been better if she hadn’t said so. Hearing her words, Selina seized her fist tightly. Thanks to Cecilia and her mum, she, the genuine daughter of the Reed family, was timid since young. They didn’t treat her like a man!
“Cecilia, have you heard an old saying that ‘it’s never too late to take revenge'”
Celia was scared by the coldness in her eyes and stepped back. She pointed at Selina, shivering, “We’re deceived by you, the bitch!”
As Cecilia was about the rush to her again, Selina shouted towards Cecilia’s back, “Eric, help me!”
Eric strode towards them and stood between Cecelia and Selina. He glanced at Cecilia unhappily and then crunched to comfort Selina, “Cecilia is still young, so she spoke without thinking. You’re her older sister – -bang!”
All of them became stunned.
Selina cried with her face in her hands, “How could you deceive me How could it happen I love you so much…”
Eric was stunned by the slap.
Selina’s slap made his face painful, but he was still at a loss. What had he done
“You should slap Eric! I’ll kill you!” Cecilia was about to rush towards her.
“What are you doing here I’ll call the police!”
Zoe went out with two guards. The security guard dragged Cecilia to one side.
“Selina, listen to me. There must be some misunderstanding!”
Eric seized her arms and said in a hurried tone.
She was fine in the phone just now. Just now Selina said her role was assigned by Darren and so she felt uncomfortable. She didn’t know what to do and wanted to discuss with him.
Therefore, he came here to persuade Selina to get close to Darren for him. It would be better if she could marry Darren. According to Selina’s love to him and her silliness, the whole Auton family would be in his bag.
It never occurred to him that he would be slapped.
He looked at Cecilia, feeling confused. He frowned unhappily. Did Cecilia stimulate her
“Go, go away. How can you be with my younger sister, woo… I don’t wanna live. How could you betray me…” she struggled, and left marks on Eric with her fingernails.
“Hiss! Selina, calm down!” He was so painful that he swallowed hard, but he couldn’t lose temper to her, so he could only try to explain.
Hearing his nervous swallowing, happiness flashed in her eyes.
Selina then slowly looked up with tears and complaints filling her eyes. She well played the role as a dissatisfied housewife who was in deep love with him.
“Someone wants to spoil our relation. I love you and I have engaged with you. Have you seen my affairs in recent years Don’t be stupid. Only you can stay in my heart since the first time I see you.”
“What about her” She pointed at Cecilia.
“Eric, she is lying. Don’t believe her!” Cecilia was so angry that she shivered.
Eric shouted at Cecilia, “Shut up! Your sister and I love each other. Why do you talk nonsense”
“She called you Eric and said you had been together for long. She said you had …Eric, how could you do this I refused Darren for you, but how could you treat me like this!”
The sweat broke out on Eric’s forehead. He tightly seized Selina’s hand, turning around toward Cecilia, “Cecilia, explain to your sister. We’re innocent. We are not in a relationship, right”
“Is it true You won’t bring her to see your parents I…”
“You silly girl. I won’t bring any other woman home than you. Only you can be my wife. Selina, any other woman means nothing to me.”
Cecilia looked at Selina and Eric confusedly, “Eric…”
Eric half knelt down in front of Selina’s wheelchair, holding her hands and looking at her affectionately, “Selina, since my first glance at you, I’m doomed to be your prince and provide a shelter for you. My dear, I can only keep you in my heart.”
“Eric…” Cecilia looked at the view of Eric’s back in despair. He said he only loved her all his life! Selina was stupid, timid and had no vigor. She was not his piece of cake.
Eric refuted disgustedly, “Shut up, Cecilia. I just offered the hand to you some times. Please recognize who you are. I’m your brother-in-law. You have made your sister misunderstand. What other trouble do you wanna make!”
Selina leaned on Eric’s arms, exposing the chain under his shirt while crying, “This chain I remember you didn’t have this chain in the past. Today I just booked one for you and got our names carved on it. Don you still love me…”
She cried so sadly and tightly caught that chain.
Cecilia suddenly cried excitedly, “Don’t touch it with your dirty hands!”
The chain was Eric and her love token. For this chain, he learned to make it in the factory in person.
“Eric, I’m so worried. I don’t know how to trust you.”
Eric took off the chain and laid it in her hand, “This was an ad product provided by the manufacturer. It was not important at all. You can do whatever you wanna do with it.”
Seeing the chain in the hand, Selina looked at him timidly, “Really”
“Sure, it’s true.”
She looked up and found Cecilia staring at her relentlessly.
Selina raised the chain and threw it away. The chain swirled around in the sky and fell into the sewer.
Without looking at Cecilia’s insane expression, Selina pulled Eric’s hand, “I’m sleepy. Can you accompany me”
“Sure.”
As he was about to hold her, Zoe came up to him, “Mr. Auton, her leg has been broken. Let the professional help her.”
A nurse pushed the wheelchair inside. Selina turned her head toward Eric, “Eric.”
Eric hurriedly followed her.
Soon, only Cecilia was left outside the villa. She rushed to the sewer, screaming. However, the sewer was full of nasty water. She bore the sick feeling and try to reach for the chain.
After arriving at the villa, as soon as Selina entered the room, Erick was blocked outside the door.
Selina cried, “Eric, I’m sorry. I can’t face you now. I know I shouldn’t blame you, but my sister’s love to you… I don’t know what to do. Can you leave me alone”
Standing outside the door, Eric was both angry and worried, but he didn’t dare to lose temper. He could only say gently, “Your sister and I are innocent. It’s true she loves me. It’s my fault. I shouldn’t treat her well for the sake of you. I’ll never do anything breaking your heart. ”
“If you cheat me again, I won’t believe you anymore.”
Pushing the wheelchair inside the bedroom, Selina wiped the tears on her face. It was only a start.
Zoe was in the living room. Eric wanted to leave the villa but he was afraid of being misunderstood and his plan would be wasted. He couldn’t make a call as his phone was still being fixed.
“Mr. Auton, can I help you”
“No, I’m worried about Selina.”
Eric smiled gently, taking a seat on the sofa and switched on TV fretfully.
Zoe sarcastically glanced at the fidgety man on the sofa.
Inside the room, Selina took out the phone and called Albert Reed, asking him to bring Cecilia back.
She wanted to make internal conflict between Cecilia and Eric, making them detest each other!
In order to avoid Eric’s practice with Cecilia, she had to watch Eric under her nose. Dealing with the one who she hated courteously but without sincerity made her sick!
When she knew that the crew wanted her to shoot the scene without difficult, she felt she got pardoned.
This scene was about the separation between her and the hero. They had emotional drama, but they didn’t tell each other. They planned to show each other love after coming back, but the hero sacrificed.
After shooting the scene, Selina walked out of the shooting site with the walking stick, but she didn’t find Zoe.
“Selina, I’ll kill you!”
Bang!
She felt dark in front of her eyes and fell down.
