Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 558

The Bennett Estate was buzzing with excitement, its grand mansion lit up like a beacon, signaling something big was happening. The courtyard was packed with luxury cars of all makes and models, as movers and shakers from the business and social scenes made their entrances, adding their own sparkle to the night.

Ever since Josh passed away, the Bennett family hadn't hosted any gatherings. Everett, in particular, had been buried in work, too busy to make any social appearances, leaving folks with no chance to connect or network with him.

But tonight, things were about to shift.

After three long years, Everett was introducing the new Mrs. Bennett to society, along with their three-year-old son. A man with a family is a man looking to reconnect with his loved ones, which also means he's more likely to show up at social events. Plus, it opened up the possibility of influencing him through his wife.

Everett, dressed to the nines in a formal black velvet three-piece suit, looked every bit the noble gentleman. He mingled with the guests, champagne in hand, but his eyes kept darting towards the entrance.

Upstairs, in one of the rooms.

Little Mateo sat sulking on a small sofa, his cheeks resting on his hands, clearly not in a party mood.

Alex walked in and saw the tiny suit she'd laid out for him still untouched on the bed, and she couldn't help but chuckle softly.

Kneeling down to his level, she gently asked, "Hey champ, the party's about to kick off. Why aren't you dressed yet?"
