Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire

Chapter 887

Ava glanced up, catching Selena's eye. She knew exactly what was on Selena's mind and couldn't help but laugh as she explained, "He was up bright and early today, took Mateo out for a jog.

Selena turned her head away, putting on a show of indifference. "Who even asked about him?"

Ava knew Selena all too well by now, so she just smiled, choosing not to call her out on it.

Haley's face was adorably cherubic, the kind that just makes you smile.

With a tender look and even gentler actions, Selena coaxed, "Sweetheart, eat up so you can grow big and strong."

With her mouth half-full, Haley looked up at her mom and blurted, "Mommy, brother said Daddy sneaks in to steal kisses from you at night."

She was just mimicking her brother, not really understanding the words.

Selena paused mid-action, "Oh really?"
