Chapter 2449 –Playing Hard to Get

Chance, who was suddenly called out, was a little nervous and frightened that his face turned pale.

“Daddy, I haven’t had time to read it yet.”

Eric frowned. His eyes suddenly darkened.

“Did you just wake up? I’ve finished two meetings, but you’ve slept until now?”

Chance’s face was red from shame, and he pursed his lips nervously.

“I’m sorry, Daddy. I slept too late last night.”

“Are you blaming me for giving you too much homework that you can’t sleep at night?”

Eric interrupted Chance in a cold voice.

There was complete silence in the office.

It felt cold and serious.

Selena listened with trepidation.

She felt sorry for Chance. Would Chance turn out to be a psycho like Eric if he grew up in such a depressing environment?

Selena could not imagine Chance, who looked very much like Eric, calling her “Auntie” with a cold face in a few years.

It was a scary sight.

Selena coughed to interrupt the dead silence.

“Eric, children his age need enough sleep to grow. You can’t let him have less sleep just because you don’t want to sleep! This is a serious issue that you shouldn’t be proud of! If he sleeps late, it’s normal for him to get up late. Don’t you ever sleep in once in a while?”

Her tone was a little harsh because she could not understand Eric’s “abusive” behavior toward Chance.

She was not trying to meddle in his family’s affairs.

Chance looked at Selena in shock and gratitude.
