Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire novel Chapter 776

The manager was still fumbling over his words, stammering like he had a frog in his throat.

Everett, his patience snapped like a twig, grabbed the manager by the collar and hoisted him off the floor. His eyes were as cold and sharp as icicles. “Spit it out!”

Terrified, the manager shook like a leaf, realizing there was no point in keeping secrets now. He stuttered, “There’s still a presidential suite... reserved for those high-profile guests. Mr. Abraham's already settled in for the night, and we... well, we can’t just go barging in.”

Everett was one person you didn’t want to cross, but Abraham was another heavyweight in Newport's future!

Hearing this, Everett let go, and the manager crumpled to the floor in a heap. Without a trace of fear, Everett loomed over him. “Show me the way!”

The exclusive elevator to the top-floor presidential suite needed a special access card. The manager swiped it for Everett, who stepped into the elevator as the doors closed and it began its slow climb upward.

He watched the numbers tick by, each one adding fuel to his fiery impatience.

...

Inside the presidential suite, Abraham stepped out of the shower wrapped in a loose bathrobe.

He glanced over at the bed, where Selena lay, her delicate form enveloped in the soft mattress. Her skin glowed against the dark sheets, making her look like a work of art. Just the sight of her stirred something primal within him.

Her long, curled lashes fluttered, hinting she was on the verge of waking.

Tonight promised to be a night of unforgettable passion. Confident of his imminent victory, Abraham wasn’t in a rush. After all, it’s always better when they come to you willingly.

He sauntered over to the mini-bar, popped open a bottle of red wine, poured a glass, and slipped a pill inside, swirling it around before downing it in one smooth motion.

Selena slowly blinked awake, her mind foggy and disoriented.

She took in the unfamiliar surroundings, tried to get up, but her limbs felt like jelly, completely drained of strength. A feverish heat spread through her body, as if she were burning from the inside out.

Her breath came in quick gasps, and she instinctively tugged at her clothes.

Abraham noticed her movements, a smirk curling his lips as he set down the wine glass and approached the bed.
