Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 635 Everett noticed the worry etched on her face and stepped in closer. "Selena, that guy is bad news. If he's cozying up to you, it's not just to handle your divorce case. He-"

"Mr. Everett!"

Selena couldn't take it anymore and cut him off sharply. "My life is none of your business!"

"And about Blaine, whether I see more of him is on you, Mr. Everett. If you'd just head to the courthouse

and sign the divorce papers, I wouldn't need him. Maybe you should focus on your own decisions instead of mine!"

Everett was at a loss for words.

"I'm only looking out for you!"

He was scared she might make a hasty decision, desperate for a divorce, and end up in a mess. No matter what, he wouldn't hurt her or their kid!

Selena wasn't buying it.

"I know who I should hang out with, Mr. Everett. You're really overstepping."

With that, she turned on her heel and headed back inside, done with the argument.

Everett was so frustrated, he vented by yanking flowers from the ground. Things ended on a sour note.

The next morning, he didn't linger around, waiting for Selena and their child to get up so he could take them to school. Instead, he left early.
