Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire novel Chapter 59

While she verbally agreed to go along with him, her actions clearly showed she was picking fights at every turn. Even a blind man could see their relationship was on the rocks.

Selena couldn't help but laugh in frustration. Was he seriously playing the victim now?
