Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 274

'What's going on here?' Selena thought.

Margot was visibly pregnant, her face etched with exhaustion and weariness, clearly indicating that this pregnancy was taking a toll on her. She was on her knees, tears streaming down her face. "Selena, I know I messed up before and always caused you trouble. I'm genuinely sorry. You can hit me, yell at me, whatever you need to do, but please, I'm begging you, give Everett back to me." Selena was at a loss for words.

Was Margot even making any sense?

Margot kept sobbing, "I know what you're thinking. You probably think I'm shameless for saying this, right? But... Everett and I were together first. You came between us, and you've had him for quite a while now. You should be content. My baby will be here in a few months and needs a father, too. Selena, please let go; I'm begging you."

Selena could feel her blood pressure rising, but thinking about the baby growing inside her, she took a deep breath and tried to keep her cool.

"First of all, stand up, so if anything happens to your baby, you can't pin it on me. Second, Everett isn't some object to be passed around. Whoever he chooses to be with is up to him."

But Margot shot her a bitter glare. "You're Mrs. Bennett now, the winner here, so of course, you can talk big. Everett is only with you because of Josh. You're just benefiting from Josh's feelings for you!"

"And you know Josh is on his last legs. You deliberately messed things up so your baby would have a stronger claim and try to manipulate Everett into staying with you. Aren't you, Selena? You're such a schemer!"

Selena was taken aback.

How did Margot know she was pregnant?

Margot offered no explanation. Instead, she leaned on the bed to stand and continued her persistence, "Selena, Everett doesn't love you, and he won't want your child. I can keep your secret, and when you two split, I'll make sure Everett gives you more money. Take it, take your child, and start fresh somewhere else. That's the best outcome. Otherwise, once Everett finds out about the baby, your child is doomed!"

No mother could tolerate hearing such curses on her child.
