Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire novel Chapter 765

Selena kept her smile, though her grip on the phone got a bit tighter. After Abraham dropped her off at Crescent Bay, he drove away. Selena stood there, watching his car fade into the distance, as the smile slipped from her face.

As a grown woman, she knew better than to think a guy would be so nice without a reason. Every word Abraham said tonight felt like it had a hidden agenda. She couldn’t shake the feeling that he wanted something from her. She hoped it was just her imagination. Because if a guy like him had plans for her, she’d be in for a world of trouble.

With a soft sigh, Selena turned to head back home, only to bump into a solid chest. A cold voice came from above, “Selena, what were you doing with Abraham?”

Hearing that voice made her head throb. Was she just having a run of bad luck lately? Why was everyone trying to start something with her?

Selena looked up into Everett’s slightly angry eyes and said calmly, “Mr. Everett, what I do is none of your business.” She tried to walk around him.

But Everett grabbed her wrist and pulled her back in front of him. “Selena, why did you block me? I didn’t do anything wrong last night, did I?”

He thought he’d been nothing but genuine and sincere with her. Wasn’t that enough? Having just dealt with one confrontation, Selena was already wiped out. All she wanted was to go home, take a relaxing shower, put on some comfy pajamas, and cuddle her kids to sleep. She really didn’t have the energy for this back-and-forth with him.

Selena took a deep breath, trying to keep her cool as she said, “Everett, aside from the kids, there’s really no reason for us to keep in touch. If you want to see them, just get in touch with Ava. She’ll handle it.”
