Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire novel Chapter 13

Dressed in a flowing white gown, the elegant woman glided in with grace, her agent, Wendy, trailing behind in a crisp black business suit.

Selena was genuinely taken aback to find herself face to face with Margot. They hadn't crossed paths in three years. Whether she'd been avoiding Selena on purpose or that jerk, Everett, had just been too protective, she couldn't quite tell. Either way, the timing was ironic, given their impending divorce, and here they were, bumping into each other.

Margot was just as surprised to see Selena there. But then realization hit her—Selena, knowing she couldn't win Everett's heart, was trying to flaunt her status as Mrs. Bennett to push her out of the picture. She actually tracked her down here. How brazen!

Before Selena could get a word in, Margot, towering in her high heels, spoke with disdain, “Selena, get out. I booked this room for an important guest. I don’t have time for you, and you can’t afford the loss you'd cause me.”

Her voice was calm and collected as if she were just talking about the weather, but the sarcasm was razor-sharp.

Margot, caught off guard by Selena’s bold comeback, froze for a moment before her expression darkened. “Selena, you know who the real homewrecker is. After three years of clinging on, are you still dreaming Everett will love you?”
