Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 286

Love?

Everett heard the word like it was some kind of joke, turning around to look down at Selena, her eyes shimmering with tears. His features were sharp and handsome, but his expression was all mockery and indifference. He softly parted his lips, "Selena, how can you still be going on about love? It's ridiculous!"

"In marriages like ours, it's all about the benefits. You're talking love to me? That's hilarious!"

Selena's dark eyes widened in disbelief, as if only now, at this moment, she truly saw the man in front of her for who he really was.

"Selena, get this straight: I will never fall in love with you, but... you're my Mrs. Bennett, and you will be for life!"

Selena was beyond furious. He had shattered the love she held dear and robbed her of three years of her youth, yet he still wanted to lock her away in this marriage forever.
