Chapter 2488 Abandoned Her
Chapter 2488 Abandoned Her
Selena desperately wanted to live and did not want to sacrifice her life for anyone.
She was selfish, hypocritical, and mean. She was only willing to do some good deeds within her ability
if she had a comfortable life, not because of pure kindness.
Selena ran away from her marriage to survive. She killed Derek Norton to be free, and she opened a
bar to make money.
She would not sacrifice her life for strangers.
It was a great possibility of being in danger if she stayed here, so she did not want to stay.
Therefore, Selena did not show any calmness and reason as she said bluntly, “You have to send me
down first. The aftershocks may come at any time. I don’t want to be put in any danger because I’m
waiting for you here.”
Zachary was in a dilemma, and he said with some difficulty, “You heard it too. Those people are in
danger…”
“Yes, I heard it, but they’re already in danger. You’re not a doctor, so it’s pointless for you to go. I need
to be in a safe place too.”
Selena pursed her lips with a somewhat stubborn and serious expression on her face.
“Selena, I can’t leave them alone at this time…”
Zachary frowned helplessly.
“We’ll talk about this later.”
Selena watched in shock as Zachary shifted gears and changed the direction of the car to go back to
the blocked road.
Selena was taken aback.
She suddenly opened the door, and the cold wind blew in with mud and sand. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Zachary slammed on the brakes.
He looked at her in disbelief.
Selena’s eyes were cold, and her face was calm.
“Put me down. You can go if you want, but I won’t take risks with you. We haven’t reached the point
where I’m willing to die for you.”
Zachary pursed his lips and watched as Selena got out of the car. He suddenly felt lost and desolate.
However, he had no time to think so much, so he stepped on the accelerator and left.
Selena was slightly stunned. She took a deep breath.
Thankfully, they did not advance their relationship.
The earthquake came just in time and stopped all the messy and romantic things that would happen.
Just because he was suitable for her did not mean that she loved him or that he was the only one for
her.
The moment he left, Selena was determined to give up on him.
Selena did not feel any regret. After all, they were on different paths.
She just wanted to live with ease.
Selena turned around and ran down the mountain.
Fortunately, there were no aftershocks.
However, there was still a lot of gravel falling from the mountain, which was still dangerous.
Selena stumbled and accidentally slipped on a rock.
She kneeled on a sharp rock at her knees and instantly broke out in a cold sweat due to the pain.
At that moment, Selena felt that she had a tough life.
Selena had gotten rid of Derek Norton and thought that she could finally have a normal relationship
with Zachary, who was devoted to her.
However, she could not stand it when Zachary ignored her safety.
Zachary wanted to be a hero, but he should not sacrifice her safety for it.
Selena survived countless dangers, so she knew it was not easy to live.
This time, she had no choice but to stop her losses in time.
Her tears fell unconsciously.
She took a deep breath and limped forward as if some demon was chasing her.
It was getting late.
Her vision was blurry, and she could hardly see anything clearly.
Only then did she realize how wretched she looked.
A car quietly parked not far from her.
She was almost at the bottom of the mountain but did not realize it.
Suddenly, someone grabbed her. The tall and lean man stood in front of her, so she raised her head to
look at him in a daze.
“Eric?”
Eric’s face was glum with a bit of anxiety and indifference in his eyes.
“Why are you here alone? Where is he?”
His voice was cold and stern, which made Selena tremble.
Selena’s face was pale and ashamed. She was in a bad state, so she just looked at him dully without
saying a word.
Eric stared at her face, sighed, and held her hand. He eased his voice and said, “Don’t be afraid. Let’s
get in the car first!”
He went to open the door to the back seat, watched her get in, and went to the other side.
The driver started the car and immediately returned to the city.
The warm fragrance in the car gradually brought Selena back to her senses. She blinked before she
realized that she was sitting in a clean car and that she was not dreaming.
Only God knew how afraid she was to encounter another aftershock on the way down the mountain. If
that happened, no one would hear her cry for help.
However, Zachary did not care about her fear.
Selena also did not know who to blame because no one did anything wrong.
On the contrary, Selena thought that she was being a little unreasonable. She was not selfless, and
she did not care about others or face the situation bravely. She did not choose to save those people.
Yes, it was her fault.
Selena choked up for a while, then took a break and pursed her lips.
“Why are you here?”
Eric did not make a sound.
Selena lowered her head slightly.
This feeling was indescribable. Selena even felt a little embarrassed and frustrated.
Eric’s face was cold. He said in a low voice from the side, “So, where’s your boyfriend?”
Selena pursed her lips. “He’s not my boyfriend.”
Eric sneered.
“He’s not your boyfriend, but you still go out with him on Valentine’s Day?”
Selena lowered her head and pursed her lips guiltily, not daring to look up at the man’s stern face.
“We were just hanging out with a bunch of friends.” Coոtent beloոgs to Draмąnоvеls.cоm
Selena explained obediently. Her attitude was much better than before.
The rage in Eric’s heart also extinguished.
However, Eric was used to being arrogant and spoiled, so refused to let down his guard.
Eric snorted coldly.
Selena was able to come down the mountain, which meant that they were not in any danger.
However, why didn’t that man follow?
Eric was a little puzzled at this.
Selena pursed her lips, lowered her voice, and said, “He went to rescue some people.”
For a moment, there was silence in the car.
Eric finally sneered.
“He went to rescue others? So, he abandoned you and let you come down the mountain by yourself?”
