“No, thanks. My driver will pick me up.”
Taylor smiled.
She could hear that Eric was just asking out of politeness. He did not sincerely want to give her a ride
home, so she did not push it.
Eric nodded slightly.
He gave off a cold, stern, and gloomy vibe that made people stay away from him.
However, Taylor clearly saw Eric smiling gently at the woman beside him at the auction last time.
It was not an illusion.
Taylor remembered what her father told her. She was not suitable for business. Now that her father was
still around, he could still support her for a while.
However, if he dies in the future, Taylor would not be able to control CK Corporation.
Thus, Taylor needed a confidant. To be precise, she needed a husband who could help her in her
career.
Her husband would have to support CK Corporation so that no one would dare to covet it.
Eric was the best choice.
Taylor did not covet his feelings. She did not care how many women Eric had.
She just felt that he was a good catch.
However, her father told her to think carefully.
After all, what happened with the Yeager family was a precedent.
Of course, Taylor was not that stupid.
Taylor and Eric stood together without speaking while waiting for their respective drivers.
In the end, Taylor’s driver arrived first.
Eric was a polite gentleman, so he went over and opened the car door for her.
Taylor thanked him gently and bent down to get into the car.
However, the hem of her dress was too long, and it got stuck in the crack of the door.
Taylor was about to bend down to get it, but Eric lowered his head and pulled it out.
Under the dim light, the man’s side profile was chiseled and handsome as if he was a sculpture. He
looked so reserved and restrained.
For some reason, Taylor’s heart skipped a beat. She seemed to have a different feeling about him.
It was as if she saw the way he smiled at Selena that day.
Taylor nodded lightly and thanked him.
Eric did not say anything. He just closed the door and took a step back.
Just then, Eric’s driver arrived, so he turned around and got into his car.
The moon was bright, and the stars were scarce.
On that calm night, something unsettling was brewing.
The photos of Eric with a beautiful woman at the entrance of the hotel and helping her to lift her skirt
were exposed.
Even though no one dared to offend Eric, the paparazzi did not want to give up this eye-catching
headline.
Thus, the news headlines the next morning were almost all about Eric’s new girlfriend.
Was she also the person who got Eric to carry her purse?
Although the photos taken by a passerby did not fully capture their faces clearly, under the dim street
lights, the luxury cars, the beauty, and the exquisite dresses and perfect makeup seemed to create a
beautiful image.
Eric still looked aloof and sharp.
Even though he looked cold, he was doing something so down-to-earth. This created a stark contrast
that awed the netizens.
The photo was casual yet charming.
A lot of people also speculated about what happened at the hotel. That gossip attracted more attention.
Thus, “Eric’s Girlfriend” went viral online.
Later, it was revealed that this beautiful and mysterious woman was the daughter of a certain company,
and she went to the hotel to discuss business.
The explanation was simple, but it aroused everyone’s curiosity and caused some misinterpretation.
Taylor and Eric were well-matched in terms of status and looks.
They were a perfect match!
Ferguson Corporation.
Eric watched silently as a group of trolls online speculated about his personal affairs.
He had already informed the platform to reduce traffic, but it would not happen so quickly.
If this was an ordinary woman, Eric could ask the company to issue a statement to clarify the
relationship between the two of them.
However, Taylor was currently the liaison between Ferguson Corporation and CK Corporation.
Once he did the clarification, it would cause doubts about the cooperation between the two companies
and distort their relationship further. People would make a big fuss, which would affect their
cooperation.
It was very tricky.
Mitchell came in with a cup of coffee and saw Eric’s glum face.
He was not surprised to see this at all.
During this time, everyone paid extra attention to Eric’s personal affairs.
Mitchell had a bad premonition about it.
“Mr. Ferguson, the popularity is starting to drop. After two hours, the relevant search will be blocked,
and it’ll quiet down again.”
Eric held his forehead and threw the document in front of him on the table.
“What’s going on? Who took the photo? Which media?”
Mitchell paused and glanced at him.
“It wasn’t taken by a reporter. It was taken by two college students who passed by. They took pictures
of you and posted them online after seeing you and Ms. Caldwell. They didn’t expect it to go viral. The
media also made it big. We have already warned the media that forwarded the post. We have also
warned the school about these two students... But we really can’t do much. They wrote a letter of
apology, so that’s all we can do for now. If they are working, it’ll be easier to deal with them. But the
students didn’t have ill intentions. They didn’t know that it would cause such a big disturbance. After the
incident, they regretted it and cried so much at school. The school also interceded for the two students,
so we couldn’t pursue the issue. We just reminded them and left.”
There was no need to deal with the rest.
Eric took a deep breath and was forced to put up with it.
There was a moment of silence.
Only then did he ask, “Does this have anything to do with CK Corporation?”
Mitchell replied, “No, I checked. No one from CK Corporation was involved in this. When the incident
happened, Ms. Caldwell asked CK Corporation’s PR department to contact me. They asked if we
wanted to clarify the situation, and she said that she would cooperate with us.”
Eric nodded and gradually calmed down.
Mitchell continued, “We have discussed two solutions. The first one is to wait for the heat to subside.
Then, the two of you can jointly issue a statement to clarify that it was just a friendly dinner. The second
option…”
He paused.
Eric raised his eyes. He looked serious and impatient.
“What?”
“The second solution is based on the cooperation between the two companies. The public relations
department found that you and Ms. Caldwell are highly popular online, so they are very optimistic about
it. If we can take advantage of this popularity to make the cooperation public before the project is
announced, it may be a good opportunity to get more attention.”
Mitchell did not continue the rest of his words.
They were just using Eric and Taylor’s popularity.
They did not need to date or explain. They did not need to do anything.
They just had to stay silent.
This is the result of the discussion by the PR department.
Mitchell disagreed.
He thought that Eric would not agree either.
After all, Eric and Selena were still together...
“Go for the second option.”
Eric suddenly spoke.
Mitchell’s eyes widened instantly.
It was unbelievable.
Did he hear Eric correctly?
Eric’s face was gloomy. He seemed to be calculating and thinking.
“We can’t lose this cooperation. In the future, we need to develop further with CK Corporation. If we cut
off ties now, we will be in a passive position.”
Mitchell was silent and wanted to say something. “But…”
“Besides, do I need to write a statement with everyone who is in the same frame as me?”
Eric’s tone became cold.
