Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 440

He was giving her a chance, a way to make peace. But Selena was neither ready nor willing to accept it. Her heart had been crushed by his repeated betrayals-what was left to mend?

Everett was on the brink of madness with rage. Selena, if she wanted, could easily calm him down; she knew all the tricks that worked on him. But now, she wouldn't even bother to speak? Had she really fallen for Callum? "Selena, I said, I want you to kiss me!"

His grip on her chin was so tight it hurt, as if her bones might crack. Selena winced, "Everett, let go... please... let go..."

Everett silenced her forcefully with his lips, leaving no room for protest. His kiss was fierce, demanding, leaving no space for refusal or resistance. It was as if he needed to prove something.
