Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 319

"Selena, aren't you curious about why your health is going downhill?"

That question stopped Selena in her tracks. Her eyes narrowed, "What do you know?"

Margot played it coy, "If you're interested, meet me later. I'll text you the address!" Click, the line went dead on her end.

Leaning against the headboard, Selena found herself lost in thought. She knew Margot was up to no good, but this time she had really hit a nerve. Selena was desperate for answers about her health and hoped there might be a solution hidden in the information Margot had. She couldn't afford to overlook any possibility!

Selena got out of bed, splashed some water on her face, threw on some comfy, warm clothes, and headed downstairs to have the driver take her to the meeting spot.

In a café near a fancy clinic, Selena and Margot sat across from each other. Neither of them was up for coffee, so they settled on herbal tea. But this wasn't a friendly chat over afternoon tea. Selena cut straight to the chase, "Spill it. Tell me everything you know!" Margot took her time sipping her tea, a smug smile spreading across her face. "Selena, you heard it yourself last night, right? Everett and I are truly in love. He'll never leave me or our child!"

Last night...

Selena realized she'd been set up; Everett had staged those words for her to hear. She scoffed, "After all this time, your tricks are still cheap and pathetic."
