Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 563

She couldn't just throw in the towel now. Three years ago, Selena had walked away from Everett without a care, leaving him behind. She'd lost her right to be by his side. It was her own blood that had saved Everett, and now, she was the one who deserved to stand by him!

Feeling a sudden rush of determination, she got to her feet and charged onto the stage.

She grabbed Selena's arm, her expression earnest and pleading. "Ms. Selena, you and Mr. Everett are over. Please don't ruin our engagement party."

She knew all too well that playing the underdog could easily win people over.

With so many influential guests around, a little bit of their sympathy could turn into a tidal wave of disapproval, leaving Selena with no place to hide.

But Selena wasn't like her; she couldn't just act out shamelessly, not with her son in mind and all these people watching. She couldn't afford to be seen as a troublemaker.

If she just left quietly, even if today's engagement didn't go as planned, there'd still be a sliver of hope for her.

Selena's eyes slowly shifted to Yasmine. She was taken aback; she knew Yasmine was shameless, but this was a new low.

What were men thinking, picking women who kept getting worse?

She didn't care whom he picked, anyone would do, but Yasmine was definitely a no-go.
