Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

The sales assistant shook her head repeatedly. "Ms. Margot, we've tried several times, and this card has definitely been deactivated."

Margot was about to argue when something clicked in her mind, and she shot Selena a vicious glare, "Was it you? Did you get my card deactivated?"

She had just seen Selena sending a message.

Selena didn't bother denying it. She nodded openly. "Yep, it was me."

"You... what gives you the right to cut off my card?" Margot was fuming, her chest heaving, and her face twisted in anger.

"Obviously, because... I'm Mrs. Bennett. We're married, so naturally, I handle his finances. It's the power of being a spouse." Selena stood up, looking at her with contempt. "And you, no matter how hard you try, are just a mistress who should stay hidden." Selena glanced at the broken pendant on the floor, a smirk playing on her lips. "Ms. Margot, this pendant is already broken. It's non-returnable. You'll have to foot the bill yourself, but with your wealth, I doubt this small change is a big deal."

"You..." Margot was nearly beside herself with frustration. She had a thriving career and earned quite a bit, but her expenses were steep. She couldn't just easily cough up nearly a million.

Noticing Selena's smug smile, she suddenly realized something. "This was your plan all along, wasn't it? Pretending not to care, provoking me to smash the pendant, and then having my card cancelled?"

"Selena, you're truly evil! No wonder Everett can't stand you!"
