Selena's dark eyes fluttered innocently as she lifted the lunchbox she was holding, her voice soft and gentle. "Mr. Bennett, I've brought you a homemade lunch with love."

It felt like a step back in time to when she was head over heels for him, never uttering a word about divorce. She was always so sweet and agreeable, never snapping back with sharp words or sassy comebacks.

Back then, Everett didn't see the appeal of a wife like Selena. Besides meeting his physical needs, she seemed bland and uninteresting. A woman who revolved solely around her husband, lacking individuality or thought-was not at all his type. Yet, because of his grandfather, he married her and didn't treat her poorly. Selena enjoed all the luxuries. As long as she stayed in her place, they could live this way forever.

Marriages like theirs were common among the elite, and he didn't mind it.

But after her recent antics, he suddenly realized how rare it was to have a wife who wasn't demanding, didn't argue over the little things, and trusted him completely. Everett realized her attempt to make peace, and her expression softened. He lifted his chin slightly and gestured toward the sitting area. "Wait there."

"Sure thing."

Selena settled onto the sofa, opened the lunchbox, and carefully laid out each dish on the table. Then, she snapped a photo with her phone and posted it on social media with the caption: [Delivering a meal to my dear husband.] Location: [Bennett Corporation.]
