Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire
Chapter 88
Selena grabbed her phone, plugged it back in to charge, and suddenly a thought hit her. She glanced up at him. "Are you really coming back with me this year?"
Every year, around this same time, she'd try everything-sweet-talking, begging, even throwing a fit but he never budged. And now, out of the blue, he was volunteering? Something didn't add up.

Selena couldn't help but chuckle, even though she didn't want to. His excuse was paper-thin. Spinning such a weak story was worse than saying nothing at all.
Her voice was calm and steady, "That's quite the coincidence, isn't it?"

Everett turned his gaze away. "I promised, so this year, I'm definitely going with you."
