Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire novel Chapter 620

Everett's strikingly handsome face grew darker as his gaze shifted to Yasmine, who was loudly crying out in pain. His Adam's apple moved up and down, but he stayed put, making no effort to intervene.

Her cries drew a crowd of onlookers, who gathered around, whispering and pointing. Meanwhile, Selena seemed totally unfazed, like she was just an observer, savoring her dessert with a leisurely indifference. She couldn't resist taking a jab at Everett.

“Mr. Everett, your little sweetheart's in pain. Aren't you going to comfort her? Look, her heart's about to break.”

Everett caught the sarcasm lacing her words.

Instead of getting riled up, he calmly turned to Alex. “Take Yasmine to the hospital.”

Alex nodded, “On it.”

Two bodyguards stepped in, restraining Yasmine and carrying her away. Yasmine struggled, crying out for Everett, trying to tug at his heartstrings.

But just as she started a second plea, Alex, as if by magic, whipped out a handkerchief and stuffed it into her mouth, silencing her cries. Her antics had already cost her a year-end bonus, and yet she still dared to make a scene!

“Mmmph mmmph...”

Alex tilted his head. “Get her out of here!”

The bodyguards echoed, “Yes, sir!”

With the chaos over, Selena acted as if Everett wasn’t even there. She set her fork down and rose to leave.

Everett quickly caught up to her, taking her hand in his. His gaze was still gentle, as if nothing had ever happened between them.

He even asked, with mock concern, if her hand was sore from before, playing the ever-perfect gentleman and husband.

Selena was a bit miffed by Yasmine’s drama but hadn’t truly been angered; she was past the age of letting a mistress’s antics rile her up.

But right now, Everett's behavior was the last straw.

How could he pretend like nothing had happened?
