Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 472

Josh feared Everett might slip away, so he wrapped his arm around him tightly, buying Selena a bit more time.

He kept ribbing him, "You had your shot to make a choice, and you blew it. Now you're just reaping what you sowed!"

"Even if you manage to win her back, you're never gonna keep her heart, Everett. You've always been sharp, so why are you so blind about this, like you've got tunnel vision?"

"Love isn't a business deal that you can take over completely. It demands exclusivity-you can't have your cake and eat it too!"

"Just like you expect Selena to be with no one but you, yet you can't handle her falling for another guy!"

Josh never thought he'd be having heart-to-heart talks about romance with his grandson at this age. But you couldn't entirely blame Everett, not with the lousy role models he had a flaky dad and an indifferent mom who messed up his ideas about love. He tried using business strategies in love, but come on, that's not how it works!

In business, you might get away with being aggressive and power-driven, but in love, it's all about give and take, and willingness from both sides!

If one person's always calling the shots and it's a one-sided relationship, the other person's gonna get tired and want out eventually.

Everett's face ran the gamut of colors, from pale to purple, and then to downright stormy.
