Trapped With The Devil
Section 25



Selena placed the lilies on the graves of her father and mother after offering prayers. The wind blew, blowing away the dry leaves that were strewn around his feet. Like the leaves, that is how man lives. It grows, passes several seasons, then falls to the earth. No one will live forever, no one will die and grow as a substitute.


Selena sometimes asks why she still survives even though her two loved ones have left. What is the reason he lives? Though the person who introduced him to this life in fact no longer exists.


Her mother always told Selena to find someone who would love her. But it's certainly not that easy. Even though people have hearts, they also have egos. Good can be bad, and vice versa. In essence, everyone can change at any time, even as quickly as the blink of an eye.


Selena never thought about marriage, because she thought she wouldn't find a man so good as her father. But as he grew older, he understood that he did not need to look for the same man as his father. Just need to find a simple man willing to accept all his flaws, Selena thought that was enough.


Then at the end of the cemetery road Selena just realized that Eros was already standing there in a black suit and sunglasses. It doesn't matter how this guy is here. As long as Eros doesn't bother him until he finishes praying.


“It must have been very difficult to live alone,” Eros said as Selena walked past him just like that. The man took off his glasses. “I admit you are indeed a strong woman.”


Selena did not glance in the slightest let alone stop her steps, but she could hear the knocking sound of Eros shoes behind her.


“Have I ever said that I hate being ignored?” syndicate Eros while speeding up the pace.


“Did I tell you that I hate you?” selena turned her eyes bored.


“Hate? Why?”


Now their steps are in line.


Eros glanced at the car he had just passed before pulling Selena over to stop the woman.


As usual, the woman brushed her hand away quickly, even though her steps had completely come to a halt.


“You said you hated me? Why?”


“Forget.” Selena wagging. He turns around, but Eros drags him into the car.


“Hei!”


Eros closed the car door quickly while himself sitting on the steering wheel. “Do not rebel if you do not want to feel the accident I experienced a while ago.”


Selena laughed cynically. “Had rejected me raw, now keep tailing like a chick.”


“You still have a grudge against me, huh?”


“No need to ask much, quickly take me to the apartment. I have to work.”


“Work?” ask Eros while driving his car. “You become a model again?”


“Not your business,” reply Selena indifferently.


The woman was surprised. “KAU—“


Eros. “Shut up or I'll throw you out right now.”

Eros whistled as Selena walked out of the dressing room in a maroon-colored dress that had a low collar. The woman's long hair was made wavy with bold makeup and a lipstick finish in blood red.


In stark contrast to Selena who often appears without makeup make up—Eros understand now why Leo is interested in offering the woman to work together. The innocent impression that was attached to Selena seemed to just disappear, changing with such a powerful aura and charisma. Since the first woman may have been beautiful, just look less modern.


“Actually where are we going?” Selena realizes that Eros has also changed clothes. The black tuxedo and the neat hairdo look very formal. Every now and then the female servants glanced at the man with cheeks together.


“You just simply flanked my arm and I made sure everything would be finished early.” Eros bent his hand, waiting for Selena's hand to greet him.


“You've made me lose a lot of dollars today.”


“I'll replace. If need ten times.” Eros grabbed Selena's hand forcefully. Linking that skinny hand on his own arm.


Selena threw her face away. While walking towards the car, he saw some people looking cynically at him while whispering. Oh, it must be because of the rumors that circulated at that time. But Eros seemed to not care, instead he got a look of sympathy from people.


If they had known the truth, would the women still have a crush on Eros William?

Leo and Steve arrive early at the birthday show of Cloe Enterprise's eldest son, Orlando Cloe. They are indeed one school but not too familiar, except their parents who are both familiar because of business affairs. The event was held in a hotel ballroom owned by the Cloe family itself. Carrying the concept of simple but luxurious, invited guests are also not just anyone. Leo and Steve should also know that Alex and Emilia are coming too, including Mrs William.


“Stay waiting for Eros to come and William's family will really gather at this party,” said Leo glanced at the three newly entered people.


Steve smiled faintly. “If it wasn't Lady William who was the mastermind behind the gossip spreader, maybe she was lying in the hospital right now.”


Leo's tickling. “Don't equal me with Eros.”


Steve shrugs his shoulders. Then glance at the two people who just came and got more attention.


Eros and Selena.


“Good, looks like tonight will be exciting.” Leo grinned before approaching the two men. While Steve rolled his bored eyes while tailing behind.


He hopes there will be no drama that happens—again.
