Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 502

Selena let out a scoff.

"Mr. Everett, what's the deal? It's just a fling, right? We're all grown-ups here, not some teenagers acting all innocent. Or are you feeling a bit out of your depth?"

She put on a casual air. "Or are you suggesting, Mr. Everett, that you've had a change of heart and now you're after a real romance with me? That's cool with me, as long as you're ready to play along."

Everett's lips pressed into a tight line, his normally sharp eyes, which could usually see right through people, now unable to tell if she was bluffing or trying to get a rise out of him.

The Selena he used to know was so innocent and bashful when it came to matters of the heart, mostly letting him take the lead. Even when she did respond to his affections, there was still a hint of tradition in her. She believed in love and desire going hand in hand, never one for casual flings. Suddenly, Everett chuckled.

The man who seemed just about ready to explode a second ago now cloaked himself in calm, his emotions hidden deep.

With a mysterious smile, he said, "A stint overseas really changes a person, huh? Alright, Selena, if you want to play, let's see how far you'll go."

Selena almost let out a curse.
