Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 569

"Selena, do you think it's possible?" His forehead rested against hers, his warm breath caressing her flushed cheeks. "I want more than just your body. I want your heart."

He took her hand and placed it on his chest.

"Can you feel it, Selena? Do you know just how much I've missed you...?"
