Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 174

The more miserable Selena was, the more it seemed to light up Jessica's day. After Selena left journalism, Jessica shot up the ranks like a rocket. But man, were her tactics shady. She wasn't about uncovering the truth-oh no, she was all about those juicy, click-bait stories. She'd do anything for attention, even if it meant dragging innocent kids into the mess, spilling victims' secrets for the whole world to see, or painting criminals in a good light. She twisted public opinion and played the audience like a fiddle. However, even with all the backlash, it didn't stop her from becoming a big name in the field, drawing in a bunch of misguided followers. Ever since Selena made her comeback with that rural assignment, Jessica had been on her tail. She tagged along this time, hoping to snag a scoop on a domestic abuse case. But instead, she hit the jackpot.

Callum was the only son of the Campbell family, a top-notch doctor, and a gentleman with a reputation that matched Everett's. He was one of Everett's best buddies.

And yet, there he was, holding Selena close. Jessica captured every detail of the scene with the precision of a hawk.

Did it matter what the real story was? Nah, she could spin it any way she liked. Even if Everett wasn't head over heels for Selena, would he shrug off catching his friend and wife in a compromising position? No way. She'd heard tales of Everett's ruthless side. Jessica's smile widened with a touch of malice.

Meanwhile, in the clinic, Callum was carefully tending to Selena's wounds. He noticed her brows knitted in pain, and her lip caught between her teeth, and it tugged at his heartstrings.

He softened his touch even more and casually asked, "Selena, do my medical tips or updates on outbreaks bother you?"
