Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 277

"Thank goodness you had the foresight to install a tracking system in Miss Margot's phone, allowing us to find her so quickly. I'll get in touch with the bodyguards and the police right away." Everett nodded in agreement.

As soon as Margot fainted, Jimmy's focus snapped back to Selena.

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. He's forcing me to divorce him so he can marry someone else. Don't you think we're in the same boat here?" "Absolutely." Jimmy nodded fervently.

"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?"

Selena's tone was soothing, almost like she was talking to a child.

Jimmy had a soft spot for Selena's gentle voice; it nearly made him melt. He was under her spell and started untying her.
