Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 474

Selena stayed quiet.

Alex assumed she was still upset, trying to vouch for her boss. "Ma'am, I'm serious, I'm telling you the truth. Mr. Everett's in a really bad way. If... if something terrible happens, maybe you should think about coming to see him..." Before Alex could finish, she heard a sharp click-the call had been cut off.

For a moment, Alex was dumbfounded.

She quickly tried calling back, but was greeted by a chilly automated voice: "The number you have dialed is currently switched off."

She hadn't expected Mrs. Everett to be so cold-hearted.

Just then, the car pulled up to the accident scene. She looked up and saw a devastating sight.

Everett had been painstakingly extracted from the wreck by paramedics. He was bloody and battered, lying silently on a stretcher, and it was unclear if he'd make it.

Alex felt her heart leap into her throat, and she abandoned any thought of reaching Selena. She jumped out of the car, nearly tripping as she rushed over.

Meanwhile, at the airport, Callum switched off Selena's phone and handed it to his assistant, Carly.
