Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire novel Chapter 465

Old habits die hard!

Everett was still stewing after their last awkward encounter, especially since Selena had been so unresponsive beneath him. No amount of effort could spark her interest, leaving him both frustrated and defeated.

But now, under his gentle teasing and caresses, Selena was starting to respond...

A glimmer of excitement sparked in Everett's eyes. After all this time, his desire for her was ready to burst at any moment. He couldn't resist leaning down to kiss her soft, pink lips.

Selena turned her head away, unwilling, but he gently but firmly guided her face back, capturing her lips with his own in a commanding kiss.

"Mrs. Bennett," he said without a hint of shame, "I'm just communicating with our child, as you agreed..."

"Stay focused!"

His kisses were urgent and fierce, leaving Selena with no option but to surrender. The more she tried to fight it, the more she found herself enveloped in his embrace. His hand pressed firmly against her lower back, as if he wanted to meld her into his very being.

Selena quickly felt Everett's desire pressing dangerously against her, intensifying the flush on her cheeks, brought on entirely by him.

"Shameless!" she spat, the words escaping through clenched teeth.

Everett was unfazed, continuing to kiss her delicate neck while breathlessly saying, "Mrs. Bennett, it's just a natural male reaction. Don't you feel it too?"

She did, indeed.

But what she felt was more the urge to smack some sense into him!

His fingers, warm against her skin, brushed softly at the corners of her reddened eyes. His voice softened, coaxing, "Since we've agreed to part on good terms and will always be linked through our child, we should stay friends. Friends help each other out, right? Isn't that nice?"

At his suggestion, Selena was on the verge of exploding.

Who in their right mind would want to help him out?

Forget that!

"Everett, do you really think I need anything from you? Even if it were gold-plated or diamond-studded, I wouldn't be interested! Mmm..."

Everett silenced her again with a kiss, his lips firmly sealing away any words she didn't want to hear. His hand slid under her nightgown, exploring freely, as if to make up for the silent treatment she had been giving him.
