Selene was silent for a moment, and then she coughed heavily. “That’s right. Maybe I caught a cold.”
Genevieve didn’t suspect. “Then remember to take medicine. The flu has been severe recently.”
“OK,” Selene agreed.
She still wanted to say something, a man’s voice came from behind her. “Why do you cough? Is something up with your throat?”
Genevieve also heard the man’s voice and frowned instantly.
Before she could speak, Selene hung up the phone.
Genevieve thought, ‘Why does that man’s voice sound so familiar?‘
Selene sheepishly looked at the man coming out of the bathroom.
The man had broad shoulders and a narrow waist. His line was smooth and strong, his figure was straight and slender, and his facial features were impeccable.
Unfortunately, he was Irven.
She almost forgot how she slept with him last night.
It was like being in a private room. They were drinking together. Selene wanted to go to the bathroom. But she didn’t know the direction, so she called Irven and asked him to come. Then Irven took her to the room.
When she woke up this morning, her whole body was so sore and weak that she couldn’t

lift her arms. Her throat was hoarse. The scene at night reappeared in her mind.
Was that her?
Was she that thirsty?
Selene frowned and looked at him.

Irven drank a bottle of mineral water with his head up, and Adam’s apple moved slightly.
He didn’t expect he and Selene would sleep in the same bed, but it was the first time. So
he felt that he couldn’t be irresponsible. Fortunately, he had broken off the engagement!
He was just about to say something to ease the embarrassment. Selene stood up, leaned
against the door on the balcony with her arms crossed, and looked at him. “Did you do it
on purpose last night? Did you deliberately force me to drink and bring me here? Have you
been coveting me for a long time?”
It was Irven’s first time to be questioned by a woman like this. He thought, ‘Do I need to
use such dirty tricks? Isn’t that what love is all about?‘
Irven was a little unhappy. “Are you kidding? I still think it’s you who makes me drink.”
Selene couldn’t help rolling her eyes. “Well, then stop talking nonsense. Let’s pretend that nothing happened last night and don’t tell anyone about it.”
As she spoke, she began to gather up her things, earrings and bracelets.
Suddenly, she thought of something and asked, “How much is a room here for one night?”
“4,600 dollars,” Irven said casually.
Selene nodded, took a stack of money from her bag, and put 2,300 dollars on the table.

Irven instantly understood. His eyelids twitched, and his face darkened.
What did she take him for?

Selene raised her head and smiled with some comfort, “I’ll pay half. I never take advantage of others.”
With that, she brushed her hair and walked out with her bag.
Irven stood there, and his face turned red.
When Selene walked out of the clubhouse, suddenly, she saw a familiar man across the
road.

She narrowed her eyes and turned around to leave. She cursed inwardly, “I have a narrow
path.”
The people on the other side also saw her and soon chased after her. “Selene, why are you running? Didn’t you see the phone I called?”
Aiden was here last night to work and rest.
He chased after her and said, “Have you settled everything here?”
Selene didn’t answer.
Aiden continued, “I have taken a project and will hand over part of it to Quinn Group for production. Your company will be fine for now. It’s not peaceful here. You should go back.”
Selene looked at him speechlessly and said faintly, “Aiden, you can’t change your charity problem anywhere. You gave charity to your ex–girlfriend,,her sister, and her son. Now, even you want to give it to me.”
With wind foalings and said. “This is not.

charity. I’m discussing it with you. Selene, you know I didn’t mean that. You are different
from them.”
“Of course, I’m different from them. I won’t ask a man for money. Whenever I lack money, I will not come to your house.” Selene slightly raised her chin and looked at him coldly.
Aiden’s handout was like a slap in her face.
Selene thought, ‘The Campbell family couldn’t wait to break off the engagement after my mother had an accident, but he just wanted to show how kind and generous he was.
‘Is he the kind of man who is kind and generous? He just wanted to wait for my tears of gratitude and regret for the coldness I had given him.
‘But I could not do such a thing. He wants me to think of him as a savior. I can take the whole project myself.”
Selene looked at Aiden and smiled, “Aiden, don’t worry about me anymore. It has nothing to do with you. Otherwise, your mother will think I have taken advantage of you.”
Then she quickened her pace.
Aiden froze and said, “Selene, do you think I want your gratitude? Don’t you understand my feelings for you?”
His words were left behind.
Selene pretended not to hear it and left quickly.
His heart was sentimental and promiscuous. She didn’t want it.
In the company. Genevieve and Riley were discussing the next step.

Jasper knocked on the door and came in. “Ms. Lawrence, Mrs. Simpson is here.”
Riley looked at Genevieve.
Genevieve pauses a little and then puts on a gentle smile. “Invite her in.”
Riley clearly looked at the vigilance and disgust in Genevieve’s eyes.
Carrie, dressed in a gorgeous style, walked in. She first scanned Genevieve’s office. It was not as spacious as she imagined. A faint disdain passed through her face.
A middle–aged man in casual clothes followed her. He was slightly thin, and his clothes. seemed to be empty. He was like her bodyguard, but not so much.
The middle–aged man was stunned when he saw Genevieve’s face. Then he lowered his eyes, frowned, and lost in thought.
Jasper and Riley went out.
Genevieve went to make the coffee herself, took it politely, and said with a smile, “Why did Mrs. Simpson come in person?”
Carrie looked at her and said, “Ms. Lawrence, you are so calm. I thought you would do as l said after I told you that last time, but you didn’t move.”
Genevieve instantly understood what Carrie meant.
She smiled and said softly, “We have reached an agreement. You will naturally ensure my brother’s safety. If I rush to get married, it seems that I have ulterior motives. At that time, Lucas and Bill will be suspicious. So I slowed down. Do you think that my progress is too slow, Mrs. Simpson?”
Her smile irritated Carrie.
