Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 206

Chapter 206

Selena, having already opened the can of worms, wasn't about to hold back now. Her lips curled into a frosty smile. "Last night, were you really at a meeting, or was it something a bit more... personal?" In a flash, everything clicked for Everett. No wonder she had been aloof all morning, dodging his attempts for affection and keeping her distance all day long.

His handsome face turned serious, and he fixed her with a cold stare. "Selena, have you been spying on me?"

Selena didn't bother with explanations. Instead, she shot back, her voice icy, "That whole Jimmy situation, can you honestly tell me you've given me the full story? Are you sure Margot had nothing to do with it?"

"Or did you just serve me the version you wanted me to believe while keeping your precious Margot out of the mess? And you claim there's nothing between you two? Is that what you call 'nothing?'

"Do you see me as your wife or just a fool?"

Her words were like punches, each one landing with emotional weight. She had kept these thoughts bottled up for so long, enduring the pain throughout their three-year marriage. She had decided not to voice them. All she wanted was a divorce to set herself free. None of it would matter then.
