Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 156

"Selena, get yourself back here right now! Or I'm storming over to Bennett Corporation!" Claire's voice was like thunder, practically shaking Selena's eardrums. The call ended with a harsh click before Selena could even say a word. Setting her phone down, Selena glanced at the wall clock and realized it was already past three in the afternoon. She'd been out cold, totally oblivious to whatever chaos had erupted. But knowing her aunt, it probably had something to do with Lydia. Everett was known for his no-nonsense attitude, so Lydia was likely in for it.

The memory of Everett's relentless antics the day before still had Selena feeling beat up and slow.

Selena knew her aunt all too well-she was a firecracker with a knack for causing a scene. If she made good on her threat to show up at Bennett Corporation, it would be a disaster. And if Everett got ticked off, it could drag her uncle into the mess, too. Everett had never been fond of him and held some leverage over him.
