Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire novel Chapter 383

Was Margot destined to always be the side character, tucked away in the shadows?

Selena's mind was a whirlwind, struggling to make sense of Everett's irrational mindset.

Her prolonged silence tested Everett's patience.

A sharp pain on her lips snapped her back to reality; the rascal had nipped at her, pressing his fingertip against the mark, making her wince.

"Listen up, Selena," he said.

Everett's cool fingertips traced her lips with an unsettling tenderness, but his words sent a shiver down her spine.

"Like it or not, we're having another child. Our kid’s going to be the future heir of Bennett Corporation. You and I... we'll be together for life. You'll always be Mrs. Bennett!"

Selena gasped.

Everett, still as full of himself as ever!

If there was a hammer nearby, she might've been tempted to crack his head open and see what was inside.

But their relationship had only just started to "improve"; confronting him now would make all her previous "humility" pointless.

Selena wasn't one to quit halfway. Once she started something, she intended to see it through.

She did her best to swallow her frustration and forced a smile. Without directly addressing the baby issue, she vaguely said, "I'll listen to you."

In the days that followed, Everett was her constant companion, doubling as her personal driver, playmate, and ATM.
