The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Boss

Chapter 2452

The firefighter glanced at her meaningfully with a bit of playfulness in his eyes.

“Selena, we were classmates in college for two years. You don’t recognize me anymore?”

Selena froze slightly as she looked at his face carefully.

She finally matched this face with a vague memory in her mind.

The young boy chased her for two years, but she rejected him.

At that time, Selena was still stuck in her horrible marriage with Derek Norton, and her grandfather had people watching her at all times.

Thus, there were hardly any men of her age that were allowed to appear around her.

This was Zachary Salvatore who fervently pursued her back then, right?

In an instant, Selena had mixed feelings.

Why did Zachary look so different from before?

She did not pay much attention to him before, but he was so hot now!

Selena thought to herself and felt regretful.

After Zachary checked the fire hydrant, he went to see the fire extinguisher.

However, his face was solemn as he put the fire extinguisher back.

“The fire extinguisher isn’t up to standard, so you can’t operate the bar tomorrow.”

Selena was shocked for a moment. “Huh? Why? This is a new one!”

Zachary wrote some notes on his inspection record book before he looked up at her with a smile.

“Selena, you don’t think that I’m avenging myself, do you?”

Selena pursed her lips. “Zachary Salvatore, I don’t recall that we have any enmity between us, right?”

The man’s eyes lit up. “So, you do remember me!”

Selena smiled. “How could I forget?”

She reached out, brushed her hair back, and looked at him gently.

“Then, will you please tell me why this isn’t up to standard? It isn’t easy for me to start a small business. I’ll cooperate in any way I can.”

Zachary smiled. “The foam fire extinguisher you bought can only cover the surface of burning objects. It’s intended to extinguish liquid fires. It won’t work for polar solvents and electrical fires. Your bar has a lot of electrical appliances and alcohol, so if a fire does break out, this kind of fire extinguisher won’t be able to extinguish the fire.”

Selena’s expression froze slightly, then she smiled brightly.

“We didn’t know this. Can I trouble you to recommend the proper fire extinguisher then? Or do you sell them?”

Zachary smiled meaningfully.

“If you trust me, then leave this to me.”

Their conversation was pleasant.

It was clear that Zachary was interested in her, but he did not want to get ahead of himself.

Selena did not have feelings for him, especially after knowing that he used to be his junior in college.

It involved her past, which she was reluctant to deal with.

As soon as Zachary left, the bar manager, Chaz, greeted Selena.

“How is it? Did you nail it?”

Selena’s face froze. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Nail what? He took our fire extinguisher!”

Chaz was speechless.

When Chaz worked at other bars in the past, those bars used the same kind of fire extinguisher, and the authorities did not notice.

Did Selena offend someone?

After a few days, Zachary solved the fire extinguisher issue forthem.

Selena then offered to treat him to dinner, to which Zachary readily agreed.

Zachary chose the location, a well-known restaurant nearby.

He was not in his uniform and dressed casually, so he looked youthful and sexy. His clothes were also from big brands.

Zachary was a firefighter, but he was a big spender, which was a surprising contrast.

However, Selena knew that Zachary was from a well-to-do family, so she was not surprised.

“Selena, I ordered a few dishes. What else do you want to eat?”

Selena raised her eyebrows, smiled, and added two more side dishes.

Zachary, who was sitting opposite her, was an eye candy. Selena felt more attracted to him than the up-and-coming new celebrities.

She just felt blessed to be able to eat with such a handsome guy.

“Zac, why did you become a firefighter?”

“Why?”

“Well, it’s unexpected because it’s such a revered job…”

“You can’t imagine that a person like me can do such venerated work?”

Zachary smiled casually, with a bit of playfulness and nonchalance.

Selena heard the misunderstanding and immediately changed her tune.

“Of course not. Isn’t it your dream to be a pilot?”

Zachary’s face froze slightly, then he smiled and brushed it off.

“My physique isn’t qualified to be a pilot…”

“But this job suits you better. You look stunning in that uniform.”

“Did you fall for me too?”

Zachary looked at her meaningfully.

Selena suddenly fell silent.

She did not expect Zachary to still like her.

Was it because he never got a response to his unrequited love?

Was she that charming?

Selena was about to say something when she heard heavy footsteps gradually approaching them.

“Selena.”

Selena was slightly stunned when she looked back.

Eric was standing on the left side of the divider, which showed his tall and lean figure.

Selena was a little surprised to meet Eric here.

Eric’s complexion was not great, but it was not horrible either.

He just stretched out his hand and beckoned to her.

“Come here.”

Zachary, who was sitting opposite Selena, glanced at Eric. His face was slightly tense and unreconciled.

“Selena, do you know him?”

Selena already stood up somehow. She did not realize that she was so obedient.

She nodded and was about to walk toward Eric when she suddenly heard Zachary’s question.

Thus, she replied, “I met an acquaintance. I’ll come back after saying hello.”

Selena walked over, frowned, gritted her teeth, and lowered her voice.

“Spit it out!”

Eric’s face was calm. He looked away and introduced the man that he was blocking.

“This is the Fire District Chief, Mr. Cohen. He’s in charge of

the fire department. I heard that your bar has some troubles, and I happen to have some business dealings with the fire department lately. Why don’t we have a meal together?”

His tone was casual without a hint of threat or indifference.

It was as if this was just a casual offer.

Selena was not surprised that Eric was here for a meal with big shots like the Fire District Chief.

However, it was too much of a coincidence to just bump into him here.

What kind of sh*t luck did she have?

“Oh, but I already have an appointment with my friend…”

Selena was in a dilemma.

Eric interrupted her. “It’s okay. Your friend can join us. We’ll wait for you in the private room. Remember to come over.”

He did not talk too much and led the other people away.

When Mr. Cohen was about to walk past them, he saw Zachary sitting there and was taken aback for a moment.

“Zac, it’s you! Come over with Ms. Nelson later!”

Zachary’s face darkened. He was a little reluctant.

However, Mr. Cohen did not give him a chance to refuse and left.

Selena was still a little excited and felt that Eric was becoming nicer.

She finally thought that Eric was more pleasing to the eye.

Then, she went over to Zachary.

Zachary had already stood up. “Shall we?”

Selena saw that Zachary’s complexion was not great, so she said, “You don’t have to go if you don’t want to. I’ll just treat you to dinner next time!”
