Revenge is best served cold novel Chapter 292

Eric disregarded Elsa's flustered expression. He ushered me into the car after saying his piece. After we got inside, he didn't chat with me as usual but had his head lowered, seemingly lost in thought.

I cautiously glanced at him and asked, "What's the matter?"

Eric pursed his lips, remaining silent.

I could only shrug and remain seated beside him in silence.

Eric eventually snapped out of his reverie. He turned to me with a serious expression and said, "I think it's time for us to make it public. It's time for us to announce our marriage to the world."

I stared at him in a daze, my thoughts momentarily suspended. I suddenly recalled what Elsa had said earlier and explained, "You ought to know that Elsa's just trying to drive a wedge between us, Eric. You shouldn't let it get to you."

We had decided to keep their marriage a secret, after all. There was just too much going on, and going public with our marriage would inevitably draw the predatory gaze of unscrupulous media outlets. In the worst-case scenario, it would even affect Brown Group and Flint Group.

Therefore, we initially agreed to keep it a secret for the time being and only planned to announce it when the right opportunity came. I just didn't expect Elsa's words today to stir such a strong reaction in Eric.

Eric was unfazed by my explanation. He maintained a serious expression as he explained, "It has nothing to do with Elsa. You and Jeremiah have been divorced for quite some time now, and both Brown Group and Flint Group have grown stronger since then. It's in both our interests to publicize our marriage now, wouldn't you agree?"

Eric's question really got me thinking. It seemed that, in accordance with Eric's line of thought, announcing it to the public would be the better choice for both of our families.

Upon noticing my silence, Eric hesitated briefly before continuing, "And besides, making it public would actually make things more convenient for us."

I had to admit that Eric was right. His voice, possessing an almost enchanting quality, compelled me to nod instinctively. I finally came back to my senses and was met with Eric's triumphant countenance. I thought I even caught him letting out a small sigh of relief.

"I'm not sure if we should just announce it like that, though. It might seem a bit out of the blue," I said hesitantly.
