Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 791

Selena swallowed nervously, managing a smile. "Whatever you think is best, you decide."

Everett, feeling a bit romantic, took Selena to a mountaintop restaurant for dinner, where the night view was simply stunning. Afterward, they made their way to a swanky five-star hotel.

As they stepped into the room, it was decked out with all sorts of romantic touches.

Everett turned to her, and Selena burst into giggles.

Everett asked, "What's so funny?"

Selena sighed, "You really haven't changed, have you? The routine's the same. Last time you took me out, it was this exact setup, even down to picking the same room."

A wave of nostalgia hit her.

Everett felt a bit off.

He had put a lot of thought into the evening, yet her words made it feel like he was just rehashing old tricks.

It got under his skin.

He pulled her onto his lap, his dark eyes locked onto hers.

"Selena, let's leave the past behind. Right now, it's just you and me. Focus on us!"

"If you stay with me, I'll treat you better than ever..."

Selena's heart skipped a beat, but she quickly pushed the feeling aside.
