Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire novel Chapter 567

In the room, everyone was a master at putting on a face, quickly plastering on smiles and showering them with congratulations, proclaiming their deep love and perfect match, destined to stand by each other for a lifetime...

Everett used to roll his eyes at such clichéd blessings, but now, they sounded surprisingly sweet to his ears. He couldn't help but glance again at Selena's gentle face. He thought, this time, he wouldn't let her down. They would begin their new life, just as those well-wishers had hoped.

Late at night, the black Rolls-Royce Cullinan rolled back into Moon Bay. Little Mateo had already dozed off in his mother's arms. Just as she was getting ready to carry him out of the car, Everett gently took him from her and stepped out, heading towards the house.

Little Mateo stirred, opened his eyes for a moment, saw it was Everett, and settled right back, naturally snuggling into his shoulder. Selena watched this scene unfold, feeling a slight tremor in her heart.

In just a month, Little Mateo and Everett had grown close. Mateo wasn't one to easily trust and rely on others, yet here he was, so comfortable and at ease with Everett. Was it the bond of blood?

It took a while for Selena to head inside. Ava had also been brought over, and upon seeing Selena, she wasn't sure whether to feel happy or sad. She walked over, took Selena's coat, and whispered in her ear, "Ma'am, after all the twists and turns, who would've thought we'd end up back here?" She glanced at the handsome man carrying his son upstairs and added, "Maybe you and the gentleman have some unfinished business."
