Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 753

Who would have guessed that when Everett turned around, he'd see Mateo holding Haley's hand, both of them watching him intently. Their eyes said it all- disappointment written all over their little faces. It was like they were silently scolding him, "Really, Dad? You upset Mom again?"

Everett just stood there, speechless. His pride as a father crumbled into pieces. Still, before heading out, he managed to mumble to the kids, "You two... go cheer up your mom."

That night, Mateo and Haley crawled into bed with their mom, snuggling up on either side of her. Selena wrapped her arms around her kids, feeling some of the weight lift off her heart. No matter how bad things got, as long as she had her little ones, she could get through anything.

The next morning, Holt showed up with Jason's termination papers, urging Selena to sign them. But Selena, taking her time, finished breakfast with her kids before inviting Holt into the study. She grabbed the contract, barely glanced at it, and tossed it aside without signing.

"It means there's no rush to sign this right now."

Holt was momentarily stunned, then a grin spread across his face. "Miss, does this mean... your ex agreed to help out?"
