Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Selena took a deep breath to steady herself, pushing past her fear. "Jimmy, look, Everett's been nothing but ruthless to you, and he's been treating me poorly, too.

"So... since we're on the same team, shouldn't we join forces against a common enemy? How about you let me go, and I'll help you figure out how to deal with Everett, okay?"
